Only ThenOur Inhibitions ThrownTo TheWind

Only ThenOur Inhibitions ThrownTo TheWind

Watching with great distance
Shattered pieces of trust,
Scattered over this dead guy's cliffs
Salting rocky love
Falling upon sharp outcrops below.

I let oceans of emotion
Come crashing with depression waves
Caught up in the washing machine
Of memories haunting
If need be, to air out dirty laundry.

It's only then that fat girl prepares to sing,
What the hell, pour one last poisonous drink
Sarcastic cheers, a humorous toast to love
Old eyes survey familiar beauty,
She uncoils tension matching my persuasive kindness
Shedding our clothing restraints
Both reaching in to feel upon open hearts.

I awake.....your by my side
Don't you notice we floated too deep
Through an overrated dream?
That we kill caution in epic battles
But today, we are all-right.

Love this whole section:

Great one Devon

Thanks Mark, I wasn't sure anybody wanted to throw caution to the wind and comment on this lol. That selection is what I favored in the write as well because I get away from the poetic imagery and get real which I thought made this a little more relatable. Have a great day man down in the sunshine state.

Hey Devon love this write .

I let the oceans of emotions 

Come crashing with depression waves 

Caught up in the washing machine 

Of memories haunting 

If need to be air out dirty laundry 

Great lines 

Sums up my marriage the last 2 years of it 

All stars and pinned rock

Hey D!!.......the sadness and the feeling of being lost.........the re-weaving and holding onto that which has become familiar fighting ground..........and still standing at the ready for love to shine ~ maybe........I think there are a LOT of people and relationships that will be able to relate to this........the brutal honesty made lighter by the poetic delivery............well crafted truth my friend............Love and Rockets!!..........T xo

Thank you T, lots of sadness man, hope not too many can relate. How long can you ride the never ending rollercoaster before one or the other decides to get off.

Hey Devon,very emotional write, 

. "I let oceans of emotion

Relationships has its down side,it can be draining and frustrating a times especially we couples underestimate each other. forgetting each others worth,forgetting to tolerate and treat each other special. Guiding each other in love and trust. If this side is handled carefully, it was leads to a stronger bond and understanding. one that keeps getting better.
