Lost in your eyes

so magical that we will be,

Together forever for eternity,

Your love so strong it can let me see,

The wonderful dreams of being free,

Hear the bells that constantly ring,

Heaven and Earth above everything,

The passion of joy we all come to cling,

Setting us free like the light of Spring..Love & Hugs~Richard

'A moment of simple
Happiness
Being here with
You
A special moment
A private moment
I tell you that I love you
And you kiss me
Sweet and soft
Like a kiss from the
Sun
Whispering lines of devotion against my skin
And you are my sunflower
A corporeal star blooming
From the earth
Brimming with life
Making my blood course and my heart
Speed up
As I smell your sweet scent
And take you in
You are a beacon of beauty
Splashing color onto my dreary
Day
My sunflower
Growing through cracks on concrete
Bright yellow upon gray, like
A sunbeam through smog
And everything else fades
Into foggy insubstantiality
And all that’s left of the world
Is you
And me
Sharing this simple happiness'.Love & Hugs~Richard

we first kissed in the chapel

of a bookshop where we'd never met,

only dreamed.

sometimes things you aren't sure you've actually seen

show up on old films you develop

a year after you sober up.

sometimes we dream of connections and the strange relief

of losing everything—

then awaken to search for the same.

sometimes i can't put my finger on it, still i know it's there:

a tiny spark that might dissolve like a dream,

or become brushstrokes on an unfinished canvas.

we first met in another bookshop.

i don't remember the words we said then,

only what i dreamed..Love & Hugs~Richard

xquisite taste of pure satisfaction

leaves my lips to influence another's

The luscious and ample gift is returned

and with it comes an intense desire to become one

A breath of life that is not often received

has been injected into our hearts

...we both serenely stare into the others soul

It's nice to be wanted...

It's nice to be loved...

It's nice to be sought after...Love & Hugs~Richard
