I have questions...

I have some thoughts that I will share...

Romance - This is the feeling that draws you close. Makes something like holding hands feel like more than it is... Makes music, places, foods, and memories something that can bring joy and tears.

Love - Love is intangible, and yet you feel it. I cannot say what love is for you - but I know what it is for me. It is that thing that makes you think that maybe there's more to the universe than math, random happenstance, and the laws of physics.

Hope - Is a double edged sword. It heals, and can slay you. Hold it steady, and know what peril (and serenity) it can bring to you.

Fate - Is a feeling of inevitability. It requires trust, and it speaks to a belief that there is a plan... Fate is a concept that closely resembles religion. They may be sibling concepts / or some sort of interrelated parasitic relationship.

Do we hear Haddaway?

I deny the existence of the aforementioned "Haddaway."

I can't trust that as a reference!

romance.. i can't explain it but i can feel it. when looking at a sunset feels as beautiful as doing the dishes with my beloved by my side.
love.. it's what i live for. it inspires me and makes nothing impossible. it fills me up and goes beyond all other bonds known to human. it's in my eyes when i look at my children, it's in my soul when my lover looks into my eyes.
hope.. it makes me realize that nothing is certain, but makes me believe that anything is possible.
fate... my destiny.. there are no cooincidences in this life.. i am right where i am supposed to be right at this moment because it's where i belong..

questions that cannot be answered by science..
answers that come from my heart....

What I may see as romance, you may see as indifference.

What you consider fate, I may see as aimlessness.

Labels only mean something to the person who is bound by them.

Are we not - all of us - bound by a label or two?

That's my point.

I like it when I am on the same page as people that I think highly of... I find that comforting.

I greatly enjoy the interplay of the text & image on this poem.
