The Map

There was once
a time golden,
when it all came
together
and I would spell
your name
backwards quite
simply ..
Because it made
It all seem
magic or special ..
And anyhow,
it was always so
very much
easier to find my
way home
when I wrote it
that way ..
Yes, there was
once a time golden,
when it all came
together ..
When we lived on
small talk,
free love and so
very much
laughter we often

Being Me

'tis a rocky path ...Β  love. I have pondered over it deeply, believe me.Β  I have come to the conclusion that love would be simple if we all loved in the same way. (Boring too). We would have the same expectations of "happy ever after" and no one would cheat. But love is not like that. We cry over different things and we laugh at different jokes, our favourite colours differ, as do our tastes in film or music or art. We grow intellectually as well as physically and love often bears the brunt of such changes. that being said, love is glorious when its going well ... just hold your breath when cupid drops the bow. Your poem is a masterpiece Neville x
