The Power Of Two, etc, etc

Hi guys

Just wanted to share two new poems I've written.  I saw an idea regarding blog posts, something that I want to try because I know I've been missing in action for a while...WATCH THIS SPACE!  

Oh!  AND I'M JOINING THE GYM....A GYM WITH THOSE GHASTLY, PAINFUL MACHINES that distort the faces of humans!  I FEEL AS THOUGH I HAVE BETRAYED MYSELF because I VOWED NEVER TO EVEN LOOK IN THE DIRECTION OF STEPPERS AND TREADMILLS......but dance class no longer exists and cellulite insists that I take control, so that's what i'm about to do....WISH ME LUCK!  Gillian, my sis in law will be training me...she's a hard ass in the gym OMG, so I seriously need those wishes!  FA REYYYYYALLLLLLL!  Gonna break ya Rambler!  Help!


The Power of Two

When he's forgotten that he has a heart that's worth loving
Be there to remind him that it's the love of that heart that keeps you moving
When your world feels like it's closing in on you and you can't take no more
Ask for his hand, hold it tight and watch him kick down a door
That's what we're here for, to restore the parts that break through the day
When life has overwhelmed us and we're in need of a moment to play
Women and men alike, they sometimes become so caught up in pretending
That they need only themselves yet there's someone close by who wants to do the tending
And only when ego's are suppressed and sharing replaces the pride
Only then will a couple remember that together still means side by side
It's a vast and ever changing world out there
What better feeling is it to know you have someone who'll care
That one who when day turns into night and seasons pass on the baton
Their love's never conditioned by the coming of Autumn
We've lost track of consistency, the one thing that gives love its confidence
Because to prove that we're independent has shaded it's importance
So the cracks begin to show and they widen until we've drifted
Sadly too far apart to reach even the tips of each others fingers
Take back the power of two in your marriage or in your relationship
We've been fighting too long now to hold onto that ownership
But ownership of what?  Of our right to out-single the single?
What about the ownership of love you promised never to be fickle?
Claim again that closeness that outward appearance continues to deny
By allowing your man or your woman to be just that before the concept of couples die

Wait, wait, wait..before you go........I wrote this other one a few days ago...this one got me personally invited to a "Healing From Divorce" Seminar!  



The One That Stays

It's happening all over the world, this minute, right now
Someone's walking away, other's are taking a vow
Simultaneously, one heart breaks while one finds completion
That's the way that love goes, no discrimination
Like death, only few get to really prepare
Where they can see it coming so they're kinda aware
They then begin their healing while waiting for the end
And can break away with not too much left to mend
But what happens when love ends and it's outa the blue?
And the waves of emotions, they keep coming at you?
Tumbling you constantly, stealing the ground from under your feet
And you don't actually know what your next step should be
Love is the only part of life that's a gamble at best
Where you're either lucky or you're not in this very blind quest
Maybe it's because you have to surrender your destiny
To someone in the hope that they see you as something to cherish
Despite the possibilities, despite the uncertainty
We're still in search of it, seeking love constantly
In the eyes of a stranger, maybe the heart of the existing
Believing in our souls that it'll find us if we never stop persisting
Regardless of the hurts, the loss, the separate ways
We still stubbornly hope that the next will be the one that stays
