every day we die by living expire with each exhalation and we die to ourselves in love reborn as someone else changed from the exchange that leaves an imprint so deep you know it's lifelong so bare so vulnerable we walk the shoreline it remembers the weight of our souls absorbs the fire of our blood as the sea swirls around us erases our footprints but the memory that stings this heart of earth never forgets never forgotten is one voice that clings to sound even silent it breathes in air even silenced love remains my love remains
This poem says so much in a few lines that one must read it again and again. And so it lingers on the mind...

No wonder it's said that "Love makes the world go 'round". I believe this to be true. Love is an energy that serves as the breath of life for the cosmos.
love is the emotion of the universe ... it is the power that binds us all ... you poem is an inspired reminder that when all else fails, love remains ...
"and we die to ourselves in love reborn as someone else" I really can feel this. Everyone I've have ever loved I still love. My heart remembers and they have affected the whole of me and allways will for I have been forever changed by them. Maybe some part of love lives forever. Pierre.
Your opening line, "everyday we die by living" is as an intoxicating a pull as I've ever read.
WOW!
It's so true!
Life, and living it, is so utterly ephemeral and so powerful in its ability to transform. What is there momentarily is taken, or erased, or transformed, in the relentless process of moving forward towards something and leaving behind something.
What a lovely blessing this was Linda!
Your soul is laced with crystal.
Intense and deeply moving Linda, it has a certain resonance with me at the moment. I especially like the way you finish this beauty.
