Dive

Just a thought

You shouldn't have gone there;

should't have done that

I wasn't there to halt your actions, nor was I able to remain in your memory long enough to intervene in the thought process that seemingly took over your sensibilities...

It's such a shame

really

Because like you,

I knew the instant it happened.

I deperately attempted to look away, into the other direction

as you slammed into yet another wall.

Living day to day, no course set, will do that to you

I would suppose

We tug and war over the intangible

because no one is quite certain

we've all been harmed

in one way or another

though some continue to further this pursuit

it's not I

who would

They say that we are mirror images of one another

forces of nature bound by the laws of the internal

though one regards

as the other

disregards

I've been here before

It's not home

It's far from it

If you aren't the real thing

Then you really aren't good enough

there is no necessity in settling

no affection worthy of taking three steps backward

you either comprehend where true beauty radiates (from)

or you drown in the shallow

I dive into the depths

I stopped giving a damn...such a long time ago

I knew long before the others

that the strength that I possess meant that I could

even when you weren't near

I could still stand true to the melodic rythm that my heart pounded to

You shouldn't have gone

you should be here...

not one word would have halted me from running to you

to catch you

as you fell

There comes a time when you set it all aside

take a deep breath

and dive...

You just shouldn't have gone

waking up on that side

knowing that I would surely would wake

realizing...

That I too

am gone

To make you feel my love

Well it's been a crazy week, lots of rain and working! Happy to do it though.
Well, I've been working on a new project, it's going well, a little slower in pace however.
Guess I'm going to have to step up the pace...
Here's a little taste:

He looked over at his love, wearily.
He didn't want to face rejection on this particular day. He had thought long and hard about what he'd say, how he'd say it...
"What's wrong?"
He sulked "Nothing"
"It's written all over your face, just tell me"
"I need to take a walk, I love this cafe as much as you, but I really need some space"
"Are you angry with me?"
"No, why would you even think so?"
"Your demeanor is a little...well off"
"Just walk beside me baby"
"Sure, where are we going?"
"Why do you always need to know?"
"OKay I don't. Happy?"
"No, I wish you'd trust me with entirety"
"Where is this coming from? You know that I do, I was just asking"
"Well I'm not telling you, now come on beautiful"
The pair walked along the cobblestone. Paris was so incredibly breathtaking this time of year...
The nearby river was still swollen from the recent rains, the trees had begun releasing their leaves recklessly into the wind. She was delighted to be showered by them.
He took notice, hell he took notice of everything that she reacted to...
finally he reached the place where he had intended, the steps of the local Cathedral.
She stood there, stoicly, wondering why
"Are we going to church?"
"Nope"
"Going to tell me?"
"Nope"
She rolled her eyes...
"Okay then what's next?"
"We go in, leave your shoes on"
"Why?"
"Because that's what normal people do baby"
"Oh that."
He laughed, "Yeah, that"
They entered the dimly lit church, she immediately took great notice of all the candles smouldering, the flowers hanging seductively from every arch of each beam...
"What's all of this?"
"Come and find out"
He solemnly took hold of her tiny hand and led her up the altar where a lone cd player lye in wait. He bent down and pressed the botton marked 'play' and patiently waited for the song to begin its melodic journey.
"To make you feel my love" soared through the Cathedral...
Her eyes welled up with tears.
He knelt down on his right knee...
"You know how much I love you don't you?" his eyes searched hers for a reflected truth
"Yes"
"And you love me"
"I do, very much so"
"Will you give your life to me baby? There's nothing that I want more, or who anyone that I will ever want more than you...I found life when I began looking into your eyes."
"Are you asking-"
"I'm asking you if you'll become my wife"
"Yes"
He reached into his suit pocket and promptly produced a beautiful solitare diamond, and in taking her hand into his, nervously placed it on her finger.
"I don't want to wait. He's here"
"Who is here?"
"The priest. Father Sullivan"
"You mean...?"
"I do indeed. It's time for us to began living as one. He is to make this official, if you'll afford me this indulgence"
"I will"
(an hour later)
He raced out, with new wife in tow, happier than he'd ever been in his entire life.
He paused when they reached the penthouse door frame
"It all begins here for us...do you realize that?"
"Do I have to wear my shoes?"
He laughed, with sudden menacing pleasure in his voice
"Not where we're going baby girl"

Hope you enjoyed.
Have a breathtaking week!
From my hand to yours,
