Well, there it goes.

Flippity floppity.
My stomach is not used to this sensation.
Vulnerability in this form is so rare for me.

I sit. I wait. I contemplate and let it go and think and pray that life will continue, no matter how slow.
Who knows the response?
I shudder to think. But I can't live life constantly on the brink.

It's been a long time coming, friend.

God has sent me

an angel from above.

With listening ears,

an encouraging spirit,

an inquisitive mind,

restful and rejuvenating arms,

a playful, understanding, wacky, accepting & caring, beautiful being.

The love overflows, in no time at all.

Meeting, it seems, just when we needed each other most.

And when those needs are met and gone,

we'll both still be here.

I know it :)

God resides.

Late night chats

over the telephone.

Sleepy giggles
over goofy memories.
Teasing, a pastime and a presentime.
Inside jokes, savored to a tee.
Hours pass and feel like minutes.

These are the moments.

Talking with someone who's known you since the beginning of this stage of life.
Taking the time to look deep.
To know you; caring.

And you get them.
And they get you.

Oh, the things we've been through.
Here's to you :)
