Dear one,
Nothing could make me stop loving you.
I may say, "you're perfect"
But my heart is most often moved to tenderness
Because you're not.
Love of mine,
It may be that the deepest joys have sorrow at their root.
I may say, "this is forever"
But I cherish you as fiercely as I do
Because it isn't.

18 spoke through the ouija:
That last part is so true. How do you do it?!
I love that last line. "I may say, "this is forever" But I cherish you as fiercely as I do because it isn't. LOVE THAT! so true.
I may say, "this is beautiful"
Because, eventhough it's painful,
it is still so.
These are the most loving love-words, Shay--I don't even wish to read them, just hear them with eyes closed. They are too sacred to be seen...
This is "heart-and-soul" stuff.
Blessings everywhere!
...in all sincerity!
love hasn't, isn't and won't be perfect. love is what it is!
It is but it's not- Yes Such is loving, such is love
two sighing poems, back to back. i will be selfish and say - this poem is definitely me! lol... love it x
Life and love are fleeting and your poem captures the elusiveness of both. I love it. Blessings!
Should we be brave enough to admit it, then we'd say "Nothing is Forever!"

So true - our imperfections make us beautiful.
Beautiful...just beautiful.
Last night my 19 yr old son and I watched a movie called 500 Days of Summer, this poem reminded me of that movie.
Oh, wow.
You blow me away every time!
Great job.
xo
Such beauty and rich longing in this. The feeling is so very real to me.
Another gem.
Be sure to visit my blog tomorrow for a surprise, Shay...
Aloha, Friend!

So - so true.
Well delivered.
AS usual ;)
Brilliant really as always! The truth never more lovingly stated, sadly nothing does last forever and our loves and our love does go on, even and in spite of ourselves.
Much love to you Shay!
