For Micheal
This person (man? woman? i know not) says to me...
Do you know what love is?
And i reply..
No.
Love is a lie.
Love is a carrot dangled before us.
and i walk on.
And later, this same person (man? woman? it matters not)
asks me again...
do you know what love is?
and i reply...
To hold someone in your arms and feel that it will be
okay.
To know that in the darkest hours, that person will
always love you.
To feel complete when he is home.
To realize, no matter how irate you both are, you both
still love.
To taste the snow and laugh with him.
To walk through fire to see him smile.
And to see that smile is to breathe life itself.
To understand love unconditional.
is this what you mean?
and this person (male? female? both. and neither) said
Yes! You have found a soulmate?
And my final reply is...
No, I have a son.
And the God and Goddess held hands...
and smiled.
