One Who Loves
By La Belle Rouge


I can’t be the one who held you
when your face was yet unlined
and your beard soft and dark
with no silver wires on your chin
when desire stirred your thoughts
and loins to rise like robust lions
who ruled the vast jungle of youth


I can’t be the one who cradled
your head in my lap and sang
songs to you in moonlit gardens
with lyrics not fully understood
voiced in rich vibrations of love
I am not the one for whom you
shed tears named “I miss you”


I can only be the one I am now
or perhaps an echoing memory
of one I once was in a former time
before we knew sadness of lines
and silver threads laced within
dark hair we ran fingers through
I can only be one who loves now

Since when are lines and silver threads sad? We are who we are, take it or leave it. Please take it. Patrick

as it has been so aptly varbalized, "all we have is here and now" -- love above all else, must be tenacious through the time we share it with another -- for lacking that dedication, love is nothing more than an unsophisticated tryst -- wise evaluation of human sentiments, sacrifice and dedication La Belle -- peace and love my friend -- Jon Michael

This is beautiful, LaBelle, this living in the moment, the now experience with the memories of course that we'll have forever but not allowing them to cloud the present.
This is among your finest.

I guess the pages of time define who it is we end up loving in the end and for how long...we seldom have a say in it...only our hearts.

It is good in a way to be past trying to be anything but what we are.
You are just fine.
