Shining Thru

Missing you in the darkness is the loneliness I’ve ever felt

Laying awake cold and undisturbed, huddled alone the bed feels like an ocean swallowing me up

Waiting for you to return and stay, waiting for the whispered “I love you, Good Night”

The passionate love never fading, always strong and burning bright

My heart feels your closeness and my body moistens with the thoughts

Feeling you enter and draw near, softly and passionately

Feeling you enter in the small hole left for you to fill

My heart is bleeding with a vast mixture of emotions

Loving you is my joy as the sweat mixes with the affection

Creating pure ecstasy as our bodies and hearts become one

So glad you’re here now to stay and sleep in the serenity of our gratification

Holding you close knowing that the love was not only for that instant but that it continues on

Knowing that missing you did not weaken the bond, but may have strengthened our joy in this moment

Knowing that I love you, I sigh and go to sleep in your arms

Swirling of the soul suddenly stops

Mirrored images of fairies and princesses fade away with the laughter and smiles

Disappearing and growing into reality

Escape of books and imagination becoming a distant memory

As you watch the little girl rise into womanhood through the trials of life

Facts of existence becoming authentic as the woman develops within

Seeing the new reflection of the eyes staring back at you, you realize

New feelings and emotions suppressing the old

Now and forever having to show the validity of the adult

No longer free to spin, dance, and play

No longer free to relax into a tea party or sing without shame

Having to let go of the carefree existence you once knew as reality

Can’t continue to converse with the good friends that dolls and teddy bears become

Sitting alone on the shelf as you wallpaper and paint over the kittens and bows

Not only the walls of the room changing but the inside of the girl

Looking into a world no longer full of innocence, no longer a peaceful sight

Only able to appreciate the occasional break in the clouds

To see the sun and remember the days that the princess was alive and well

When magical fairies were able to roam around the yard as you put on a show of delight for all of those around

Delight in the smile and laughing eyes of the innocent and true joy

The small moments of passion and love that take you back to a feeling of bliss unhindered by life’s existence

Bliss full reunion with your arms

Loving touch and gentle kiss

Passion explodes as the day goes on

Night time comes to loving embrace

Love and trust reassured in your eyes

Eyes so bright with love and life

The soul pouring forth

Delight and joy spilling forth as we unite

Together there is happiness

Only joy and laughter and love

Like the waves gentle pulse along the shore

Acceptance comes in calm gentle waves

Acceptance,  as the calm and the peace come with it

Knowing that what will be, will be, knowing that I’m not in control

Knowing that love will last

Love and hope, admiration and trust

Knowing that the caring love is still in the two hearts

Peace and Joy are the hope, it’s what brings on the waves of acceptance

Love and trust will bring on the sparkles of the water

As the sun sets on another day I hear the waves’ gentleness

As I lay down I can feel my heart beat soften and relax

Acceptance throughout my body, as I think of you

The joy and peace found in your love

Knowing that the calm voice of peace is close at hand

Knowing that although the heart strains, Love holds it together.

The joy pounds through your heart

You see the one you love

You imagine life with them forever

You know it’s right when you’re together.

The happiness fills your soul

You just enjoy being near them

They complete you and you don’t want to move on

You love them for who they are

And are completely accepted for who you are

Good, Bad, Complicated, or otherwise

You just want them with you

To sit with, talk with, and love.
