If it sounds like it...

"You are the call, and I am the answer. You are the wish, and I the fulfillment. You are the night, and I the day. What else? It is perfect enough. It is perfectly complete. You and I." D.H. Lawrence.

I went through an infatuation period with D.H. Lawerence at some point in my past life. His style rested just on the edge of forbidden with a brooding sexuality that made me believe. He wrote of "blood knowledge" and finding it better to "...die than live mechanically a life that is a repetition of repetitions."

Sometimes I think I expect too much from my intimates. A soul perfection. Yet, if asked, I scoff at the notion of soulmateship.

If you read that fast enough, out loud, it sounds like "soulmate sh*t."

'Nuff said

More

All that was sacred and little bit that was wicked
Mixed with sunshine to fill the hollows of my heart.
A brimming chalice calling:
More. More. More.

Now pull me to your lips.
And, drink, oh Thirsty One, drink;
Swallow what you feel.
More. More. More.

Don't melt like cotton candy.
Really let me taste your soul.
And hold me. Breathe with me.
More. More. More.

Be large enough to keep me.
Be strong enough to tell me no.
But always give me:
More. More. More.

Be. Just BE.
More. More. More.
