I got this in my inbox this morning.....


It almost made me cry.

I promised, never a Love Poem



And I write

These words

To continue

Where all

Of the best

Songs ended



Is it hopeless

To be a Romantic,

When her skin

Makes you stutter?



Redemption is

Spelled out

In every line

That she traces

On my back,

With her fingers.

And consolation is

Marked by the way

That we cannot look

Into each others eyes

Without shaking



(And every word

That passes through

Your lips

Passes through my smile)



Now I remember

What it feels like

For my heart

To beat

And my blood

To be

Warm

And for once

My chest

Doesnt ache.

Edited to say I got a good bye letter from someone I had dated brifely who is making a long distance move here pretty soon, and with it he included a few poems he had written for me. This one being my favorite.

Best of luck in everything that he does.


OH and the BREAKROOM tonight for a bit. I promised
Inara!
