Longing, belonging and secret love..
Longing, belonging and our secrets…
Lover, lover, lover. Once we loved the long nights, once the wine tasted sweeter. Now our longing, belonging and our secrets, are bloody finger prints on a over-painted wall.
I told you once, you were my life, my will, to live for. Now we make love like strangers, our kisses less warm, our laughter deleted. Now our longing dispersed in the storm of living, the belonging of love, bled-out and never to be awaken.
Our secrets words spoken in the midnight hours, became just myth and tale in the hidden words in my poetry.
We kissed goodbye on a rainy Spring day and I took my books with me.
I left you my smiles, my laughter, my heart. Now old poet sing to the Spring moon,
“Where does love go?
why do we destroy the sweetest day,
the kindest nights?
Our we destine to know,
longing, belonging and our secrets,
heavy memory to drown our hope.
I told the stars,
I love you, I love you, I love you.
And you have forgotten my name. ‘

So lovely and sad at the same time. There is truth here for so many couples, it is a give and take and it does take work. I think this has been an interesting time when people are together 24/7.
I love this John:

Hope you are well and that you have had a chance to spend some time with your grandchildren. I wonder when I am going to see mine again. They are getting so big. Sending you love and hugs. Joni xoxoxo

Oh no I am so sorry. I hope he didn’t get to sick. I know how much you love your grandchildren. I am sorry. I will definitely offer up a prayer tonight for your whole family. Kids miss their friends. I hope he inherited some of his grandfather’s writing skills. Love, hugs and prayers my friend. ❤️❤️

He isn’t sick at all. His mother and his brother planned a vacation to Honduras. You must take the coronavirus test and the poor seven year was positive. The children are strong. Thank you dear Joni.
