One love, many emotions

We are born of love, from the time of conception, we begin the journey through love and desire. There are many different definition for that which is love. From the womb to our mothers arms to the world that awaits, all become part of the great journey, as we explore the emotions deep within us.
There is a great difference between, love, in love and desire, each reveals what we are capable of as we experience all that life has to offer. Oliver Wendell Holmes said that " Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness" Incredible that such a positive emotion can trigger such an ache when we feel it slip from our grasp. Love is acceptance, in love is passion and desire is the irresistible urge to share heart, soul and body. Together the above emotions are the fire that never dies, the eternal flame that rages deep inside.
Today I spent over an hour on the phone with a young woman who is suffering from the ache of a break up. I listened as she spoke, "I love him so much, even if he doesn't come back to me, I just want him to be happy." It was obvious she deeply cared for him, concerned with his well being and tearing as she spoke. My heart went out to her, as she shared with me the days she felt the deepest of devotion. She talked of her heaven and I felt her hell. I could understand in her young life, how she was planning for her future, to share the moments with someone she greatly cared for, some one she loved, was in love with and desired. I tried to bring her some peace in allowing her to know that I saw in him, the reflection of her love and what it was capable of . She thanked me as she said, I didn't think anyone could understand. Not to understand is not to have felt love and than had it stripped from you.
What is right or wrong or is there a right or wrong? Standing on the stage of truth, the first thing that catches most peoples attention is the physical and from there we get to know the person on the inside. I imagined this young couple were not balanced in their love. That one felt more passion, more desire, more love, more of a connection. Sometimes there is a rush that comes out of need, to love is to be loved. We all have voids that need to be filled. Love is the strings of the heart which play on the emotions of the soul.
The day had progressed quickly and I found myself dwelling on the conversation. In her young life she was on the path of experience. My head felt as if it were spinning, there was in my life a time where I loved without judgment, asked nothing and gave everything. Why is it that what once felt so perfect like a never ending winter fire, could be extinguished with just one breath?
Betrayal comes in many forms, for love always puts each other first, always understands and when the threads of love are severed, the fall finds a heart shattered in pieces.
The healing process comes with the ability to view love in its raw form. The unconditional love that mother earth showers on us. Where we thirst, we find water, where we hunger, food and the morning greets us with the rise of the sun and the night blankets us with the glory of the evening sky. So beautiful is this love that we become one with the world and become capable of sharing the treasures of life.
There were certainly no words that could set the mind at peace, no actions at this time that would speed the healing of a broken heart. Falling in love is and addiction, you crave, hunger and desire to share every conscious and unconscious moment. Just as we feel the adrenaline pump within our body, love sends a chemical to the brain, which in turn creates a sparkle in the eyes, a fire in the heart and a hunger that devours all that is and will be.


When one loves it is wonderful,
when both love it is magnificent.
~
As the day quickly comes to an end, I reviewed my own emotions. Love cannot be filed away to be pulled out at a given time. Love is with us always and is seen in all that we do and all that we are. It is ongoing and truly without an end, it can morph, grow stronger, or weaker,but it cannot die. Each experience is unique to that moment, each string played on the heart, sings it own tune. It is our hunger for more that places a sense of confusion within us. What more I beg you can the soul need, it loves, it lives, it sings from the heart and dances in the heavens. A tear falls, a heart weeps, a soul struggles to understand.
~
The heart never ages,
it knows nothing of time,
incredibly speaking it
works with the mind.

The seasons of change


The seasons reflect on the moment of change,
from sun lit summers, to autumns shades,
a winter dusting, till spring reclaims.
~
In every moment of everyday, we traveled far,
we found our way and hand in hand we erased
all gray.
~
The sky took on many a hue but it never
morphed from the sky of blue.
~
How grateful, how happy, how filled with joy,
those barriers small, sent just to toy.
~
I allowed sorrow to open the gates,
until your love flooded through to
erase the ache.
~
Each day is labeled with laughter and
joy and the warmth of love which
embraces the miles.
~
Today is special , there is something new,
each day is shared under skies of blue.
~
Rejoice! the sun still shines in the dark of the night.
~
I looked at my wants, my needs and desire and
than closed my eyes to create the hour.
~
I cannot give to you which is already yours...
~
The darkness enticing, the stars so ever close and I knew at that very moment, we were on the road the Lord had chose. He sent out a few roadblocks, a detour or two and than he stretched it through the years under shades of many a hue, only that I may recognize the color of love when I met up with you.

That's Amore

Music is one of the most complimentary forms of expressing emotion. Soothing, dreamy, exciting, leading. Today I listened to the music of the hollow, the sounds drowned out by another more satisfactory melody, that of my heart and soul. When your caught up in the exploration of emotions you can't imagine that anyone else could have experienced the depth of joy and beauty that you yourself have defined. As you listen to songs over the years you realize that someone else must have tread in these same waters, to have written the songs of the past. This particular song takes the time to explain love.... "That's Amore"When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie, that's amore. When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine, that's amore.Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling and you'll sing "Vita bella"Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay like a gay tarantella When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool that's amore.When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet, you're in love. When you walk down in a dream but you know you're not,dreaming signore,Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli,That's amore

Sings>I danced in your shadow, to the song in my dream,
embracing your love with sweet memories.
Da da dum went my heart, da da dum my soul,
around in circles till I lost control.
~
Something amazing happening, I can’t quite explain,
I left this place to another Plain. Far far away my
soul raced to kissing you face to face.
~

I danced in your shadow, to the song in my dream,
embracing your love with sweet memories.
Da da dum went my heart; da da dum my soul,
around in circles till I lost control.

Drifting high unto the sky of blue, a pirouette
with the angels till I found you. Something
magical indeed, as the flame of desire
displayed our needs.

I danced in your shadow, to the song in my dream,
embracing your love with sweet memories.
Da da dum went my heart , da da dum my soul,
around in circles till I lost control.

Little bits of sunshine!

Every day with you is like spring in full bloom,
beautiful, colorful and amazing it
rids the winter gloom.

One of My favorites

Limbo under leaves of green,
under blue skies and dreams.

Felt your touch in the breeze,
made my heart stop to sing.


I savor the moments, succulently divine,
absorbing the trail of magic, the creation
of a new design.

Appearing lifeless, naked trees surround,
a tease to the hills of silence, a symphony
of sound.

A stroll to the clearing, where a cabin
once stood, a reminder that a good
foundation doesn't rot like that of
wood.

The rock along the path can be slippery
when wet and occasionally moss
covered puts the journey to the test.


My mind is skipping around like stones tossed in the stream
it's here, it's there, it's everywhere,
it's in the middle of a dream.
~~

If you had whispered goodbye,
I might have understood,
but you left my heart agitated
and unlocked for good.

If once you felt the love through
the touch of morning wind.You
would know the magic started
from within.

If you closed your eyes and allowed
your soul to see, the silhouette
emerging is of love set free.
~~



Dusty wooden petals,
fragile are those of glass,
picking one last winter
rose, just might make it
the last.

Decisions




Decisions
Those nasty little choices that keep popping up through the day. Clouded in judgment over the years I found that sheltering which is portrayed as a protectiveness is quite the opposite , it does very little to promote a foundation where growth can flourish. Stagnant life becomes a mere existence , rather then a contribution of self to the world around us. I battled the years of regression as I tackle each moment in the day to gain independence of thought and allow my inner self to reach its full capacity. The long journey had planted seeds of self doubt which have rooted within .
You can imprison the body , setting limitations upon ones abilities . But you can’t hold on to the spirit within, that seeks to soar the heavens. The minds capabilities are unlimited. Finding the strength to not question what it is the heart feels and allowing freedom to overcome all obstacles.The strains of indeciveness grips when I least expect it.I find that I need stimulation and constant reminders to encourage the journey forward. Hungry for the contact that comes with reaching out beyond the perimeters set in place many years ago. I find each person I come in contact with is a lesson in life and fuel for the days ahead.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
My mind battles fiercely with my heart and soul, my heart to the wind to feel your embrace ,my soul beside you as we journey in place.
