Take this to bed w/you;

"We were laughing in a daydream
With the world beneath our feet
And the sun smiled on the water
Where the sky's and the ocean meet

We were spellbound
Ohh spellbound

We were listening down on the rainbow
As the leaves fell to the ground
Whispering as they tumble
And the wind laughed at the sound

We were spellbound
Ohh spellbound

We were children in a garden
Where the flowers kiss the sky
And the birds sang out in wonder
As the day went sailing by

We were spellbound
Mmmm spellbound
Ohhh spellbound
Mmmm spellbound
Ohh spellbound"

I loved her because?

Perhaps like me, you have an ex?
And maybe even like me, you wonder how and why you ever married(or dated)
that particular person, but then again, maybe you don't.

Me, I loved her for many reasons, but today,
I was reminded of the most compelling.

Words.

Words was something we shared.
Three sons and lots of spanish champagne as well,
but mostly, she inspired me creatively with her words.

Not all of which she appreciated at the time.

Nonetheless;

I was struggling with a riff, and she provided this retort:
Perhaps she says, your not so deep, as the world is so shallow(?)!

And in all honesty, I agreed!

As for myself, I realized she was right.
Not about my depth so much,
but damn, there are some shallow folks amongst us.

Me, I love her still.
For words will always hold us together,
but in all honesty, I'll never love another without them.

For words are what we speak into each other,
when all else has failed to heal the rift that exist
between those in whom we comprehend
and the shallow few that take
up the rest of our day.

Thanks ex.

Hope your day ended as good as mine.....


Foot Note:

Maybe it's true, nobody loves the ones they leave behind.

But me, I don't feel that way.

Sure, there are a few I hated in the end, but in all honesty, love is not a choice, so much as a conviction. And me, once I accept that as the reality within myself, the love never goes away, or completely dissapears.

And odd how many private notes I received from people who couldn't relate.

And yet, to some, love is a feeling.
Which it's not, but that's not the point.

I loved Jan 1st. then Marcia.
Pamelynne I married!

True love never goes away.
And if you ever felt it, you knew that already....
