"Tell me ...", he said, "How is it you can get inside my head?"
Who, me? I replied. The knowing I was there could not be denied.
"Through all our conversations, each thought I wanted to express, you spoke of it first. It can be disconcerting, I must confess."
Why?, I asked. Is it so unusual to feel a possibility of something real? To know someones thoughts so intimately, isn't that how love should be?
"The truth is, I've not felt this before, and, I find myself wanting more. You were not my ideal match. Initially, that is what I thought. But, now I am realizing you are the one I have sought."
I smiled, and although he did not see, the next thing he typed is, "I love it when you smile at me".
It's that mystical connection of minds that only love knows. It finds us when we least expect it. Flowers for the heart ....

TO WILLOW: Nevertheless....you got a fine poem out of it.... Sometimes that's the best we can do. And if we can do THAT best with sorrow....we're doing something worthwhile indeed. Pat

I thought so, then ..... until the logistics of distance became something he couldn't seem to get around. He is in PA. And, I couldn't move either. We corresponded for a while, but, he wanted more. I wanted to give more, but, it is all I could at the time. The idea of "distance shouldn't matter where love is concerned" is, I'm sure, a topic of previous blogs and the forums here ...... with many views on pros and cons. Relocating is a huge decision for many, whether for financial reasons, or, other ones. For me, it isn't so far away now, perhaps a year ... to go ...... somewhere. I don't really like the Southern regions where I am for various reasons, including the horrible weather for asthma, and the tornados ...hahahaha .... And, before the Southern people come blasting me for that comment .... I've been here since 1978. My kids are grown. And the asthma I had in childhood returned about 5 years ago. So, a lot of it is for health reasons...... jungle heat / humidity is just not condusive to my well being ..... ~grins~ .... Plans are underway to do SOMETHING .... in the next year ... who knows .... I suppose I was in one of those self reflective memory lane modes tonight ...... ~smiles~ ... and felt like writing a memory. We can never know, for certain, what the future holds, now can we? We can plan all we want, but, we can only live one day at a time. But, being the eternal optomist .. ~rolls eyes ~ maybe I can answer your question in a different way someday. Until then, I'm out here being as available as I can be......hahahahaha
