I think keeping a bit of innocence can help guide us. I’ve lost family members and friends who all have similar stories. When they were younger they got into bad habits. Kept pushing it, convincing themselves they were invisible. And then they became a mess until they died. I also remind myself that I could of ended up that way if I didn’t make better choices.

Thanks for the read, friend.

The way you open this up I feel I am reading the Mists of Avalone. I like this

Thank you!

Brilliantly penned, Reggie. An incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

You are too kind.

Love this stanza and the picture is beautiful.

“She’d string together days of future-past theories
Just for me…where we aged like fine wine
Where all of our what-ifs became that potent fifth
Of liquefied love”

Beautifully penned, Naaj. Wonderful imagery and a great write my friend. Appreciate you.

She’s occupied my mind for decades.
Very special indeed.

Thx for dropping your thoughts hun

The longing in this is palpable. Very beautiful writing.

Thank you, Alexandria 🙏🏼

Most gratefully for selecting this rather wishfully gentle poem in homage to unrequited desire.
How wonderfully encouraging it is to know you were able to actually feel the emotion of this piece.

Your gracious praise gratifies a bard’s humble efforts! ⁓ Richard🖌

Maybe so, Adira,

But, not quite as beautiful as You for sharing this rather lovely homage to romantic fate, with your ohhh-so warmly kindred spirit.

What would you want that you cannot have, right now?
One can only wonder and ponder ‘n wish! ⁓ Rascal🖌️
