If you steal my poetry...I will find you in between the metaphoric lines. I will smudge you with inky darkness and do unwritable things never whispered of. In full disclosure, I am absurdly mad and take no responsibility for my actions if crossed. But, otherwise, I’m a deep visualizing poet creating particular facets, not only line by line but even the shades and innuendo between them; to the point that, I can get so comfortably caught up in my imaginations first imperfect draft that I sometimes just move in to stay there… rhetorical, spelling, grammar, mechanics be damn, nothing in life is that perfect. I don’t need tailor-made, I need someone/something to fit well enough that it becomes fashionable for me to wear well. I don’t need to pretend to know everything and I resist pontificating those things I’m well versed in.
I'm just a simple romantic at heart waiting on a perfect storm to completely sweep over me like gentle fresh dawn. In the meantime, I write meaningful (to me) poetry from my heart and share it here. I tend to approach everyone as a friend until they demonstrate something different. I enjoy having creative exchanges with others, like-minded artists, or writers.
Thank you for reading, commenting and your visit. I appreciate all the feedback (good or bad) you care to offer.
Feel free to reach out by email for private exchanges if you wish.

I really love this one. I have those questions and feelings at times.
I know those feelings as well. I think too many people create too many obstacles that sabotage a pending love. It seems as soon as a potential love appears, they revert to their check list of conditions required to be met, ignoring love is meant to overcome all those pitfalls.

I think many that still believe in a love lasting, is still pending out there in their so called life, still do. Glad you enjoyed it.

Yes, I do agree with you. Sometimes I think about that how many do wish or believe in a lasting love. These days it’s a hard think to hold on to.

Yes exactly. Or they sabotage it because they’re too afraid of it, believing in more as it’s a responsibility than a blessing.

That’s for sure. We ( as a culture) seem to be losing the values love requires and promotes. Love never claimed to be convenient, just constant.

Dreaming of a future relationship sometimes seems to be only filled with fiction . . . and then . . .
