WHAT IS THIS STUFF? THIS BEATING OF OUR HEARTS?
THIS PLACE WE FEEL HAPPY, HOPEFUL & AS IF ALL IS WELL IN THE WORLD?
WHAT MAKES US WANT TO BOND, HAVE BABIES AND GROW OLD TOGETHER?
IS IT CHEMISTRY? IS IT KARMIC? DO WE HAVE A UNIVERSAL CONTRACT?
IS IT EVOLUTIONARY, TO PROPAGATE OUR GENES AND PRODUCE OFF SPRING?
IS IT SCIENCE?
I DON'T FUCKING KNOW.
I JUST KNOW... IS A BEING IN ME THAT WANTS TO BE SEEN, HEARD, APPRECIATED, CHERISHED AND THOUGHT OF FONDLY, AND SEEN AS ATTRACTIVE BY JUST ONE MAN.
THIS MAN CAN'T JUST BE ONE OFF THE STREET, HE NEEDS TO SLEEP IN THE SAME BED, LIKE TO COOK DINNER WITH ME, WANT TO SHARE STUFF AND THINGS AND LAUGHS.
HE NEEDS TO BE LOYAL, TO ME AND MY !@#$%^&* AND JUNK AND MY LOVELINESS TOO.
THIS MAN IS THE LISTENER TO MY GRIPES FROM THE DAY, THE HOLDER OF MY DREAMS AND THE HEAT TO MY ORGASMS.
HE LOVES MY CHILDREN AND HIS OWN AND HE TAKES TIME TO MAKE COOKIES ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
THE MAN I CALL "LOVE", "SWEETNESS" AND "BABY"...WANTS TO ADVENTURE WITH ME, SEE BEAUTIFUL THINGS AND DIG IN TO THE GOOD !@#$%^&*! HE'LL DISCUSS WHAT THE HELL TO DO ABOUT TEENS SNEAKING OUT AT NIGHT, CRY WITH ME DURING GRADUATIONS AND KISS MY WORRIES AWAY.
THIS SWEET MAN, GETS ME BOILING, MAKES ME NEED TO GO ON RUNS AND DANCE MY !@#$%^&* OFF JUST SO I CAN GO HOME TONIGHT.
HE LEARNS MY BUTTONS AND PUSHES THEM.
...AND TOUCHES ME SO TENDERLY, I MELT, AND AM IN ONE PLACE...IN HIS SPACE AND PRESENCE...COMPLETELY.
IS THIS LOVE? SOME HAVE WRITTEN, YES, IT IS.
OTHERS SAY ITS ALL IN OUR MINDS, LOVE ISN'T REAL.
I THINK I KNOW WHAT IT IS, AND AT LEAST KNOW THE THING CALLED LOVE IS WHAT I WANT. IN THIS LIFE TIME, AND WHILE IT IS A YEARNING IN MY HEART, BODY AND BEING...I WANT TO BE LOVED AND LOVE.
A COUPLE THINGS I KNOW ABOUT LOVE.
EVERY RELATIONSHIP IN YOUR LIFE CAN BE HEALED,
EVERY RELATIONSHIP CAN BE WONDERFUL, BUT IT'S ALWAYS GOING TO BEGIN WITH YOU. YOU NEED TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO USE THE TRUTH, TO TALK TO YOURSELF WITH THE TRUTH.
GAMBLE EVERYTHING FOR LOVE...
HALF-HEARTEDNESS DOESN'T REACH INTO MAJESTY.
DON'T WAIT ANY LONGER.
DIVE IN THE OCEAN,
LEAVE AND LET THE SEA BE YOU...
THE ONLY WAY OF FULL KNOWLEDGE LIES IN THE ACT OF LOVE; THIS ACT TRANSCENDS THOUGHT, IT TRANSCENDS WORDS.
IT IS THE DARING PLUNGE INTO THE EXPERIENCE OF UNION. TO LOVE SOMEBODY IS NOT JUST A STRONG FEELING...IT IS A DECISION, IT IS A JUDGEMENT, IT IS A PROMISE.
YOUR YEARNING FOR LOVE IS SO POWERFUL THAT I CAN FEEL YOUR HEART ALL THE TIME. WHEN YOU OPENLY LOVE ME I CAN FEEL YOUR HEART, BUT I CAN ALSO FEEL YOUR HEARTS YEARNING WHEN YOU ARE ANGRY OR SAD. TO ME, YOUR HEART IS ALWAYS CALLING, EVEN THOUGH SOMETIMES I AM UNABLE TO OPEN WITH YOU BECAUSE YOUR EMOTIONS DIVERT ME. I MAY BE AFRAID OR DISTRACTED AND YOU MAY BE UPSET, BUT I STILL FEEL YOUR HEART'S YEARNING. AND I NED TO FEEL YOUR HEART. YOUR YEARNING DRAWS ME BACK INTO LOVE'S DEPTH. YOUR YEARNING IS MY INVITATION INTO YOUR HEART.
