reckless in love and other things
Saxon Crow said:
I love this poem. It tells me of the recklessness of youth maturing and shaping into wisdom of the heart. The only journey that is important.

reckless in love and other things
dusk arising said:
Love as an emotion, rther than a physical act, is a noble place to begin for it is surely where you will finish too. Hopefully finishing with a finer trust and understanding of how huge a thing love really is.
You writing tells of coming to terms with your struggle which in a gay world must be some emotional battering given that there are so many part timers who are married.
Good luck to you and persevere.

How well put QWAP! Snoring turns from a nuisance to sweet music when sleeping with the beloved. This is reminiscent of my own romantic poem (August 2019) called \"Asleep) on a similar theme. I invite you to take a look and comment. Amazing read!

The personification of sorrow ... Being like a monster . Very good ! Sometimes pain can make us lash out and hurt others and sometimes that can feel out of our control ... \" these claws only know how to rend and tear \" pain can affect how we sometimes are with other people ... Sometimes .

call me maybe
Caring dove said:
I really like this . I like how you compare her to the call of the sea , and your fall onto the concrete hurts ... Just like wanting her hurts you . I can sense the seperation between the call of the sea ( this girl ) and you as if there is a pull between both of you but there is a distance there ... A distance which simply hurts

oh, father (or: what i would say at my father\'s funeral)
dusk arising said:
These feelings are out and good for you for saying it BLUNT cos its so hurtful for you. He damaged you.
But you are not beyond recovery. The very fact that you are poetic shows you are evacuating the damage from your soul. It will take time and you should be gentle with the process.
MPS is a very theraputic place where goodwill exists in bucket loads.
Publishing what you write when drunk really gets it off your chest. I hope your head feels ok - hangover wise.

dusk arising said:
When a love is special poetry is in the air. When a poet finds that love, then poetry fills the air and powers the hand to write.
A lovely love poem today.

Great finale there. Your words made me think of your mind and its struggle with your body while i was making a comparison. You see some people who ARE their bodies - the architypical \'dumb blonde\' - who are apparently of little mind.

who are you (to me)?
Poetic Dan said:
Wow, powerful stuff my friend reminds me of when I confronted my real father at 18 asking why he was never there! My sister and brother both had memories but I have none, even when the words sorry left his lips, I could not expect it!
How could I from a man I didn\'t know, I may look like him but there was not an ounce of respect for him.
12 years later I was getting a divorce and becoming a part time dad, that\'s when I understood not everyone can handle this kind of pain but I\'d make sure mine would never feel the same.
Thank you for sharing yours, if this is actually happening I hope you find the same strength.
Much peace and respect

Makes me wonder if it is a real story, but I see it as real.
Maybe it is in a way because how could you be able to say all of that if it\'s not real?

Mixed thoughts of missing someone in a cruel world. Our beds always accentuate the shadows within us.

I found these words quite by accident while mooching around here this evening.. I am glad I stumbled upon them in such a way... to be honest, the more I read, the more impressed I was with them.. I found them emotionally charged but blunted, if that makes any sense... you tell a story that had a reality to it that made me draw breath sharply through clenched teeth and quite a few times... I dont know whether the details are autobiographical or fiction.. at the end of the day, it does not really matter, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit... Neville

I can\'t even explain how many fights I\'ve gotten into over gun control. Even my own mother disagrees with how I think things should be fixed. Exactly, we don\'t want them ripped away from people, if you wish to own one, then fine. Own it to protect your family from real dangers. Armed robbers or things of that nature. Or if you\'re a hunter out during hunting season getting your deer for the year. Fine, you do you. But I see no reason why regular civilians need such dangerous weapons in their possession! And the process of accepting or denying someone a weapon is too short! There needs to be a stronger background check, a mental check, a waiting period! If you can\'t wait a week for your background checks to come through, then you don\'t really need the gun! This violence is getting crazy lately. It\'s only gotten worse within the past two years. (And I\'m not blaming it on the current politics, but I\'m also not saying the current politics are helping). People are losing their minds, especially here in the states!

Well said. Just because you can doesn\'t mean you should. With each incident we here in Australia respect our gun laws more. The needless loss is so sad.
