‎"All for the dream and the glory. 

All for the right to choose. All for something to live for. 

All for something to lose. 

All for the bite in the beauty. 

All for the beast in the bone. 

All for the spirit and flesh being married, with Love as the sword in the stone.  

All for Love"

The Sweet Unveiling is so becoming, there is perhaps nothing more beautiful. 

The glide, you once called "walking". Your fears, dropped as gently as lingerie. 

As Who You Are, naked child, turns every purpose Lightward - toward, what has always been right here shining As You."

(Em Claire)

‎"This kind of love - it is an organic thing. 

Its footfall is quiet - like a camel's in the desert. Or the thick, white, silence of snow. 

And It waits - in the deep of the eyes, until that moment It is finally seen. 

And this kind of love, it means standing tall in the bare wind. 

Even as the clouds disband, even as the warm sun finally claims you - yes - even then."

(Em Claire)

‎"So for now, hold on loosely to where you are. 

And like knots on a rope that mark your reaching, hand over hand you will continue to climb. 

Sometimes through ecstasy, sometimes through white agony, but Higher, into evermore Light. 

This same formula over, and over again. Until that day you find yourself just A Beacon. Only flame. 

In a place where even Love Itself has come undone." 

(from 'Love Itself', Em Claire)

"To love yourself, start here: 

take your own hand, put it to your lips. 

Then, lay the soft of your cheek to the round of your shoulder - where the faint musk, of the enduring dreams, and the labors of your life perfume you. 

It's a start. It's a beginning. 

Now the ache of your heart has a surface." 

(To Love Yourself, Em Claire)

‎"Even though you are only One Blossom - 

You have been bloomed. 

From somewhere came This Beauty, 

The Beloved has now named "You". 

(From 'You', Em Claire)

‎"Move softly from these old skins. 




Let the full bodyweight of all your innocence, down. 




Be received. 




Be received by the broad earth of your worthiness. 




Cast off everything, everyone else has known for you. 




Move Gratefully, from these old skins. 




And this time if you toughen, decide - for whom?" 

(from 'Be Received', Em Claire)

Why am I so much in Love ?

To Love Her So Much As To Experience Her Presence Through My Every Heartbeat

To Feel Her Warmth Envelope Me With Every Single Breath I Take

To Feel The Sweetness Of Her Smile And The Rays Of Her Innocent Eyes Rip Through All The Layers, Reach Straight To My Soul & Fulfill Me

To Make Me Want To Loose All Desire To Live Any More While Also Wanting To Be With Her Forever

In Every Moment Of My Life

I AM, SHE IS ... LOVE ALIVE

We all want to be in Love

Why? 


Because that experience makes us feel completely alive. 


Every sense is heightened, every emotion is magnified, our everyday reality is shattered and we are flying into the heavens. 


It may only last a moment, and hour, an afternoon. But that doesn't diminish its value. 


Because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives

You are beautiful

You are beautiful...when you let friends have their space, when you believe, when you laugh, or are moved to tears, 


when you let it just roll right off your back, when you talk about your dreams, when you help a turtle across the road, when you try to do the right thing even when it comes out wrong, 


& most importantly, when you love.

So Much To Tell You

There are so many words I cannot say,
when I look into your eyes.
I want to be able to tell you one day,
but I'm left speechless every time that I try.

You must have stumbled across the key,
and discovered so much more.
You found a hidden place in me,
you found my heart and opened the door.

And I cried in pain
of losing my dear friend.
Will it ever be the same again?
If it passes will it be the end?

I realized it was worth so much,
as I lie in bed every night.
So I allow my soul to be touched,
without even putting up a fight.

Are my eyes deceiving me,
when I see you standing there?
Are you playing games,
just to prove I care?

You speak my name in a prelude,
in a reference to love,
with such loving attitude,
as if it were a message from above.

With the palms of your hands
pressed firmly against mine,
a white doves lands,
and the sun begins to shine.

Someday I will see,
though that day has not come yet.
You'll say you love me,
but will you ever forget?

If that happens and my spirit dies,
if my emotions drop,
will you want to hold me when I cry?
Or will the love just suddenly stop?

We can't expect to fall in love and never cry.
You'll stay and play your part,
but after the beauty starts to die,
will your footprints still be on my heart?

Though it would be hard to say goodbye,
your friend I'll always be,
as long as we always try,
to keep the friendship between you and me.

The letter I will not send
will casually inquire,
how could you have brought it to an end?
I was your one desire.

After this life is over,
you'll be one person I know I'll miss.
It'll be too late to start over, and so I leave you with this...

I'll hold you for a lifetime,
if you'll just hold my hand.
We could have a wonderful time,
in the days we have not yet planned.

A Gorgeous pleasant surprise

You came into my life so quick, 

It was a gorgeous pleasant surprise,

I hoped it wouldn't be a flick,

Then, a beautiful friendship did indeed arise. 

Our bond was so very strong,

It couldn't help but turn into love,

I wondered if going further was wrong,

But we fit each other like a glove. 

It feels so right to be so near,

To feel like we are but one,

Sometimes our love is worth a tear,

Those tears of joy, I'm sure there are more to come 

It really is love, my baby,

The longing for one anothers lips,

You are my beautiful young lady,

I know it as we dance with my hands upon your hips.

Love planted in me

You don't understand
The feelings that I feel
People say they're fake
If they are, they feel so real

I just can't stop myself
When I see your face
I try to steady my breath
But it's a pointless chase

I just don't understand
Why I feel this way
But understanding or not
It happens every day

I know you'll never love me
The way that I love you
But I never give up hope
That somehow, you love me too

I don't have that much time
To explain these things
But don't think you realize
How much pain you bring

The pain is not physical
No, it's the heartbreak kind
The kind you get from hurting,
From love on the inside

It doesn't make much sense
To me, others, even you
But when I said I love you
I really don't think you knew

But it don't really matter
Don't think of it one bit
I should forget about it
My talking will quit

But next time I say I love you
Don't take it for granted
Because I really mean it
My love forever planted

Stay Hungry Stay Foolish

Don't let your fire go out, 


Spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swaps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all. 


Don't let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved & have never been able to reach. 


The world you desire can be won. It exists. It is real. It is possible. It's yours.


You have a hero residing in your soul. LIVE LIFE OUT LOUD!

Pain

Sometimes the pain's too strong to bare


And life gets so hard you just don't care. 


You feel so alone you just sit and cry


Every second you wish you could die. 


Then you start thinking who would care


If one day they woke up    -      and you weren't there

Making Love Out Of Nothing At All (Air Supply)

I know just how to whisper 
And I know just how to cry 
I know just where to find the answers 
And I know just how to lie 
I know just how to fake it 
And I know just how to scheme 
I know just when to face the truth 
And then I know just when to dream 

And I know just where to touch you 
And I know just what to prove 
I know when to pull you closer 
And I know when to let you loose 
And I know the night is fading 
And I know the time's gonna fly 
And I'm never gonna tell you 
Everything I gotta tell you 
But I know I gotta give it a try 

And I know the roads to riches 
And I know the ways to fame 
I know all the rules 
And I know how to break 'em 
And I always know the name of the game 

But I don't know how to leave you 
And I'll never let you fall 
And I don't know how you do it  - 


How you make love out of nothing at all 

Every time I see you all the rays of the sun 
Are all streaming through the waves in your hair 
And every star in the sky is taking aim at your eyes 
Like a spotlight 

The beating of my heart is a drum and it's lost 
And it's looking for a rhythm like you 
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night 
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright 

I've gotta follow it 'cause everything I know 
Well it's nothing till I give it to you 

I can make the runner stumble 
I can make the final block 
And I can make every tackle at the sound of the whistle 
I can make all the stadiums rock 
I can make tonight forever 
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn 
I can make you every promise that has ever been made 
I can make all your demons be gone 

But I'm never gonna make it without you 
Do you really want to see me crawl 
And I'm never gonna make it like you do -  


Making love out of nothing at all 

I will be there (M. J)

In Your Darkest Hour
In Your Deepest Despair
I Will Still Care
& Always Be There

In Your Trials
And Your Tribulations
Through Your Doubts
And Frustrations


In Your Violence
In Your Turbulence
Through Your Fear


And Your Confessions
In Your Anguish & Your Pain
Through Your Joy And Your Sorrow
In The Promise Of Another Tomorrow


I'll Never Let You Part
For You're Always Be In My Heart.

My First Love & Last Desire - YOU

Sometimes I let my affection for you go unspoken..
Sometimes I let my love for you go unexpressed & feel remorse
Sometimes I cannot find the words to tell my feelings
Especially to you, whom I love the best & the most...

So much to tell you & so little time
Despite my empty mouth, the words are in my mind...
Please always keep the face, the one where you smile
Because you lighten up my being, when I start to cry..

LOVE

Why do I feel having a billion light bulbs go up inside of me on thinking of her...every single time?

I ask this question to myself. Every now and then. The answer comes up to me in careless whispers..it is so because.....

I am finding peace in the life that I have lived yesterday and beyond with her.

I am finding meaning in the life that I am living today.

I am finding a purpose for the life that I am about to live in the very next second and beyond.

I am feeling a feeling of perpetual anesthesia.

I am knowing a face so deeply as to look at my own self.

I am feeling a flutter in my heart for a moment that lasts a million lifetimes.

I am wanting to desperately stop my life while also wanting the moment to go on forever.

I am knowing that I am blessed with a blessing with the potential to destroy me.

I am burning in a fire inside of me that gives me the ultimate soothing like that of a first rainfall on a parched land.

I am at a loss of words to say when listening to that beautiful voice and still wanting to pour out my being.

I am not knowing whether to speak or remain silent and not being able to do either.

I am starting to pray silently for her.

I am looking at the most beautiful pair of eyes and completely loosing myself, not wanting to live anymore..while also not wanting to die.

I AM WANTING TO BECOME A BETTER MAN..FOR HER..WHILE KNOWING THAT SHE IS ALREADY PERFECT FOR ME

SATISFACTION

A feeling sweeping through my being..a murmur rising in the very core of my soul...tears of unknown origin swelling up in my eyes...and PEACE pervading the depths of my consciousness...This is what I felt today.

It all started as I got off the RT bus into Don Mills Subway station...a look on the left brought me a beautiful sight...a small dog lying at the feet of a man with a guitar..

Man oh Man ! a sense of excitement passed through me..walking up to him, saying hi and introducing myself...talking with him, knowing his name (Richard) and connecting with him...wow...what a feeling...petting his dog (& receiving wild licking love in return) was the final giveaway of the connection we shared, for music and for animals...then parting with a smile on our face for having looked into each other's eyes & having connected.

A second occurence of the same then right before I got out of Finch station..an old lady, whom I felt compelled to convince of her own life's dignity by a simple gesture of a physical touch on the hand..suffice to know that the mutual touch of love & respect that we shared for each other was enough for both of us to convince us of our purpose of life - To Live.

The reward for the day: SATISFACTION at having put up a moment's happiness into a life.
