The Dream

I love you...
Don't forget that.
You are my heart and my soul
but now.....we have to be apart.

I want to breath you in like I have never been able to.
I want to dance with you in the kitchen and
feel that you want all of me...even the ugly.

I want to make love to you in free abandon..
no demons...no constraints...
when you hug, breath deeply and embrace, cocoon in that warm place
love full, love hard baby...there is only one life.


I need you to embrace all of it....no more obligations
or reasons not to do...
I want reasons to do.

I want to save our money and travel...
I want to be the guilt ridden Catholic that I am,the worrier, the poet
and I want you to be the best tortured writer you can be
and watch you dance in the rain.

I love you
that will not change
but everything else must.
