Retta...what a write....superb my friend....just superb.....BHUWAN

Touch me love,
Run your fingers over my lips,
Drink my soul until you are full,
Fill me with the love you say is real!

Touch me until I began to feel,
Autumn is here the leaves are dying,
Falling from the trees in soft waves,
As I am falling into my grave…

You are only as old or as young as you feel and that
is the honest truth! I am testament to that fact!
I have lived a lifetime in the short 34 years I have been
on this planet. You can only imagine which I am sure you
have stories as well. Please look to the positive and
love yourself. It took me 34 years before I actually realized
I LOVE MYSELF! Then, I could allow my family to love me and I felt
stronger.
Excellent poem.
Love,
Becca, Brain Faithful

The passion of love dispels all fears and anxieties Retta..
We never grow old as long as we remember to keep on loving...

Wishful thinking, for sure. There is nothing wrong with wishful thinking, that is what wishes do, make you think. Even tho we cannot turn back one single day of our life, the passion of a lover can, and does, make us forget, for a fleeting moment, and that is good.

Retta, growing old is never thought of as sanctified, but it does seem to have it's advantages. We get to remember how wonderful it felt to be held close and loved.
He'll be there to catch you..and again you'll remember without fail his love for you.
Awesome write Retta!

Great moving expression Reatta, I felt each and every line as I read. Quite a few of us share these same feelings. Growing old brings wisdom and comfort if we are smart. The problem is, it's hard to be smart when your world seems to be crashing. We gain in some ways and lose in others. Life becomes a trade off of win and lose, lose and win. l&p G

Retta!
This one touched my soul... This one has a sting. Fabulous! It comes from the same place as my recent one 'All for Love' but the expression of the concept of emotional anaesthesia v's the vulnerability of feeling is expressed quite differently.

Thank you!
