Its hard to find someone who will love you no matter what.

I am fortunate enough to say that I have a few of them people in my life. Does that make me lucky? Perhaps it does. Am I greedy? Perhaps I am. There are great people in this world like activist that pour their heart into a cause, teachers determined to educate, role models who make an impact.

Even if its just for one little thing, one little way the love hits so deep, you cant help but smile. Someone asked me what love felt like. I told them it feels like that extra two seconds of a hug from a caring soul. Its in the smiles of the two little playing, its in the eyes of a little old lady. Its in the hearts of someone who has enough hope to carry a mountain!

Having such a rich and full life full of lots of love, I often think about people who never ever get a chance to experience this. I think of the struggle they must have and how hard the days can be. Without love we have nothing and if we have nothing we don’t have love. I don’t want nothing….. I WANT LOVE

So here is to you all, thank you for being you!! Thank you for reading, thank you for smiling, thank you for everything. The greedy me says that I cant get enough and will always have my arms open for hugs and warm kisses!!!!

Where is the source of unconditional love??

The piercing rays
Of the sun warms
The seed of the lonely
Desolate rose
Rain provides nurture
Supplies tears
Contribute to the structure
This rose
The soil though plain
On the surface
Enriched beneath
The clouds of misjudgment
Ensures stability
Defines purpose
Supplies function

When the mark of beauty
Reaches your heart
Your passive understanding
To life is full of colors
For the first time
You no longer see
Black and white
Shades of grey
Colorful no longer
Hides in dreams
The mark of passion
Completes the yearning
The longing
Branded in the soul

This is my rose
I offer to you
Protect her
Never
Neglect her
Pull back the petals
And reveal all
That you have searched for
Remember this moment
Hold fast to the ever growing
Embrace the gentle kiss

A humble heart
beckons a warm vessel
A simple smile
does the impossible
Those abandoned eyes
That hollow heart
The parched mind

Full.

**** seeing how this is such a great story, i had to do it in two post****

This is an adventure. The journey began on a warm June day that led me to search the photo gallery of the local members of this site. There he was, just as statuesque and beautiful, hiding in the shadows. *The phone rang* a distraction that led me to only take a glimpse of the picture and nothing more. I closed all the windows I had open and left the house without a second thought of the art that laid upon my screen just minutes before.

A few hours later I return to the photo galley ( I had only been through maybe…15 pictures) in search of where I left off (usually the order is pretty much the same since they don’t get new users here by the boat loads). HE was not there. A figment of my imagination I replay the image in my head in search to see if I looked at his handle. NOTHING.

Letting go of hopes of finding the needle in the hay stack, I continue my routine reading of the new post in the user groups and blog entries. Until the messenger pops up, flashing black and red at the bottom of the screen…You have 1 new messages in your inbox. To my surprise when I opened up the message it was HIM. The picture really was there. His words filled me, I could hear his voice. I could taste his shadow…..

Day 1
To: sunrise

How is the beautiful sunshine girl today?
You have a lovely smile. It's not too common to see a smile accompanied by smiling eyes.
Thanks for sharing your smile and sending a wink my way.
Hope to hear from you.

~HIM.


My reply:

The beautiful sunrisegirl is doing just fine today!! thank you for the compliment. Not too many pick up on that. You have a very well written profile. I smiled the entire time I read it. You will hear from me again! Thank you for listening…and you don’t have to say thanks….

Sunrise


To: sunrise

Sorry,
But you'll have to admit, everyone enjoys the taste of sunshine no matter how many clouds fill their day.
You are very sweet, what are you doing here??? I couldn’t imagine coming here and finding such beauty. I guess angels have to be everywhere. Since earlier you have dominated my thoughts and that makes me a very happy man.
~HIM


My reply:

*blushing* well, this is a first to come here to open my inbox and find such a message!! Thank you for that. I stumbled here in search of clarity and I have certainly hit the mother load!! Please visit my blog, it is growing fast. I will keep this short for now but I will have to say you have peaked my interest. A gentleman of my dreams…so it appears!! Tell me something about you! What thoughts accompany such a radiant smile? How are your nights? What do you remember most about your childhood? I will get back to you….
Sunrise


He then sends a brief email including a number to reach him, a few instant message handles, and a quick explanation as to why he is so short:

“…..only time is capable of understanding how great love is” so I want time to be on my side, I want time to soothe and release this ache I hold within. Sunrise I do declare that I have been swept into the clouds with your soft words. Ease my fears and show me that you are real…..

This time around I didn’t even let the skeptical me surface and I went with the whispers of the wind and I called him. Right then and there, I didn’t wait for a plan, I didn’t even know what I was going to say.

It was something magical the power and magnetism that was shared with just a HELLO. A smile as bright as the sun herself grew across my face. I took a leap into the arms of Lady Fate only to look destiny in the eye and submit to all her lovely wonders. Five beautiful hours later I hang up the phone with a feeling in my heart so rich and so heavy. It was simply amazing.

Day 2

TO: sunrise

Well, where have you been my whole life. Let's get one thing out of the way. For now, I look and see a ...only in the years reflected. But you speak, and I am amazed at the intelligent thoughts that you push the mind to reflect upon.

The things that I think upon are similar to your own. The day draws when a cloud hides the mind, but a moment of clarity comes, tho not properly dawned by the coming light behind the clouds of loneliness and self thought. Reminding myself of days spent among the many sands that lay beside the beach, I raise my eyes and mind to the sight of reflection coming off the sunshine of thoughts not of mine own.

I love to think of days sitting on a beach not too far from here. Have you ever been to the Pinery in Canada? You should take your beautiful thoughts and capture them there on paper. Whether you choose to capture the minds of thousands in publishing them or allowing your gift granted to the select few you are guided to, the choice is yours. You have a gift.
I look forward to many conversations with you, and I give you my word that I will be only a gentleman to you.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me. I hope mine can be equally inspiring.
~HIM


My reply:

Thank you, riding and embracing your words right now. I have had a long day and rest awaits me. When I am in stronger spirits we will dance. Dance until sunrise

This was a short conversation. Both our days prevented us from getting lost in the moment. It was rather exciting though. The wait, the anticipation had me ready!!!

Days 3-19 were full of quick hi’s and thank you’s and you are awesome‘s , we played a word game or two and made beautiful music. Saved and re-saved voice messages, cute little offline instant messages filled these days. We talked on the phone every chance we got. Reading stories, delivering desires, presenting fantasies. Through a series of chat sessions, emails, and phone conversations we learned about each other and how we were two lost souls looking at the same star.

Day 20

To: sunrise

I cannot begin...
I'm sitting here straining,
Wondering
Wishing...
I won't deny the warmth I feel inside, but only for tomorrow our dreams will live. I leave them there and can only despair.

When my folks moved here we lived in Indian Village. I used to walk, or ride my bike during the day to, what I believe was close to what you are talking about. The only thing I recall is that it was near a coast guard station. I found it quite peaceful. You know how it can be difficult to find a place to get away from the sounds of the city, the water somehow washes the sounds away as well.
Today has been a very long day... and I really need to prepare for my class tomorrow.
Be good to you!
~HIM


My reply:

Thank you so very much! I have found inspiration in you. I have written several things and they have all turned out to be so very beautiful! You are a gem above all else. You have my heart, you cherish my kisses, we will dance!! We will dance soon.

Sunrise


Days 21-40 intensified as the subject of actually meeting came up. We were to meet in a public place (mall, restaurant, park)and go from there. The first two days I was not able to break from harder side of sunrise to escape my overloaded responsibilities. The next time he was just too exhausted from being a superhuman. 10 more days went by before the idea of meeting came underway.

Day 50

To: sunrise

Lets meet today, right now, I’m calling you. I only have precious moments to spend but they will be yours if you only say yes.


My reply:

anxiously awaiting your call.

HE did. It was amazing. There walking up the walk way with one single rose that we were to release into the lake. It was an over stimulating event. Even greater than I had imagined. We went to watch the new moon rise and it was breathtaking. The majority of the time we were in awe of just the scenery. Lying on the grass, watching the sky, hand in hand. This moment was priceless.

He held back all his feelings, I could tell. So it was upon me to unleash them. In the most gentle way, I placed a sweet kiss right in the center of his palm then right between his brow. I think a part of him drifted with the rose because I knew that he had never experienced a power so great, a feeling so deep, pure passion, in the beginning of her dance.

He walked away but before he could reach his car he came back with one single tear hurrying down his face. He tried to speak, no words could come, he tried to hide himself but he was on display. There was no need for words. A warm hug that lasted five seconds extra was more than what he needed.

“let this moment last a lifetime,” he whispered. I held on just a little while longer and tighter, wrapping him with all the warmth, the light, the very best part of me.

Day 51

To: sunrise

I could never count the moments I've dreamed of such a gentle kiss as the one I received from you. I shall hold it in the palm of my hand and cherish it through the next day. Gentle has the day been since the words found my heart through lonely eyes. You are, and shall always be in my dreams. I will always approach you with my heart. You are too much an angel that I hold still in my dreams. Your essence is true, your clarity clear, you are... my Sunrise. The purist of air I feel touching my lungs since I cast eyes upon you. The gentleness of your touch caressing my chest can not be.

Thank you!
I hope you are well, and know I am your slave, in love with the words you give my eager eyes.
I can only hope for one as true as you to fill my needs. Every time I think about it. I have to wonder if I will wake up from this dream. I have stumbled upon the greatest and I will not do anything to jeopardize your trust. Thank you for allowing me into your life.

~HIM

My reply:

Last night I had a dream
You were walking along the shoreline
Hands in your pockets
Eyes watching the skies….
There was a beach fire
Well made I must say
Nice big rocks
Carefully placed twigs
It was a fire
That was meant to last
At least until sunrise
The moon drives the water
To jump a little higher on the sand
Glowing in the night
It makes the breeze whisper

Of all the things in the night to dream it was you that dominated my dream cycle. Thank you! You have shown me that it is ok to be me. You have instilled a confident streak that can not be broken. Thank you.

Sunrise


Day 52

To: sunrise

You are incredible!

It has been a long time since I danced words with another.
You are sooo much fun, you are the one that I have been searching for. There are men who would be challenged by you because you are positive, you are confident, and you are very intelligent.
I can only hope the dance will continue, and someday soon we can share another kiss like the one you gave me. You know I can still feel it. I can still smell you. I feel you when I am alone at night. You have me under your spell. Moonstruck and loving each and every moment.
Thanks again,

HIM


My reply:

You always know just exactly what to say to make me feel good. thank you so very much.

Sunrise


Days 52-53 we spent together. The evening of day 62 we went to dinner and then to the spot where we first went. It was a beautiful night. Full of laughter, full of adventure, we explored ourselves with each other. Deliciously we penetrated each others soul under the stars. Welcoming the new day, we had crossed the point of no return. Amazing, you wait and wait and wish on stars only to have the impossible presented to you in the most surprising way.

Day 54

To: sunrise
My mind is...
within.
Thriving to sample you. Your mind touched a piece of me that has not stirred for so long.
I am sorry that I did not call you this morning. I am extremely busy trying to complete my final evaluations for a class that I am working with.
Let your mind float and realize I am there holding your hand. Where you go with it, I will never mind.

~HIM


Day 55 and 56

TO: sunrise

...deep in the midnight sky.
Last night, I looked up upon the moon and imagined you casting your light upon my body high in the sky.
More to come….

Meet me at 10pm. I will be waiting for you.
~HIM


He was waiting. I got lost in a trail of candle light gently flickering with the soft breeze. He opened up and showed me more of his world. Back at his place he did a self portrait. It was amazing. It was a double exposure of him before and after he met me. It was labeled “stranger.” he brought me there to escape the burdens of my life. He brought me there to make a plea to my heart. *Angel, by Sarah McLachlan playing in the background, the look in his eyes was beyond my reach. A heavy sigh escaped and worry replaced bliss on my face. He told me he was offered a better position farther away and wanted to make sure I would approve of his decision. He wanted my support. He wanted me there, on his new journey, on his new adventure. He wanted me to be a part of his new world. He knew he couldn’t ask me for that. He knew that his selfish heart wanted everything. Tears in his eyes, fear in his heart, I held him close and told him that time, only time is capable of understanding how great love is. With that being said the magnetic energy claimed us again that night. He held me tight while he slept in peace. “In the arms of an angel,” he said to me and drifted off to sleep. The morning rise was fast approaching and his grip wasn’t letting up in the slightest bit. Blinking into the morning light with a smile across my face and a beautiful soul hovering over me saying, “Good morning Sunrise.” his voice confident and will stronger than the night before. His worries were gone, fear no more. I think he needed the closeness of me more than anything. He had 20 days to his departure. Each one of those 20 days I got to spend with him. Whether it was an hour or two or the entire day.

The day he was leaving we shared a 10 minute phone call then an exchange of emails.

To: sunrise

Thorns hide, but the scent is still true. A rose is a rose... but what of the caretaker, the sun, the rain, and the soil that feeds her thorned beauty. As gentle she may be to the balance of those that give her life, she is the rose that giveth life to all who cast their eye upon her. Aware and unaware of the touch that has overcome and the subtle silence only this beauty will never see. The thing in which we seek lies in the piercing of the thorn.

Still my heart and hold your hand upon my cheek let me feel your soul though your gentle kiss. This love that I hold dear and near to my heart will be with me all of my days. You have shown me more in these last few months than I have ever imagined, than I have ever seen. You made me feel alive, you accepted me for me, you loved me. And I didn’t even have to ask. The day will come when I hold you in my arms again. Sweet kisses and lots of love from me to you.

~HIM


My reply:

I wrote this in my journal afraid to show this to you. I wrote it the day we met, when I was able to look you in the eye…..

The piercing rays of the sun warms the seed of the lonely, desolate rose.
The rain provides nurture…supplies tears….and contribute to the structure of the rose
The soil…though plain on the surface and enriched beneath the clouds of misjudgment, ensures stability, purpose, function!

That function is to show that some of the most beautiful can grow in an unusual spot.
When the mark of beauty reaches your heart, your passive understanding to life is full of colors….for the first time you no longer see in black and white…shades of grey….Colorful no longer hides in dreams….The mark of passion completes the yearning in the soul.

Take a risk and grab the rose fore not all thorns are made to prick….what is seen by the eye may not always be what the heart feels. A defense mechanism to protect the fragile stem. Instead of a piercing, prickling, irritation, You get a glimpse of the warmth the rose has inside, you get feel the call. You feel the plea. You feel the yearning. In awe of the these new feelings you look at the rose as if its impossible…unfeasible…Curiosity allows you to look deeper and embrace the sweet fragrance inside. Reassuring and confirming that the daunting thorns could do no harm. The smile on your face reflects the contentment in your heart when remembering that a rose by any other name is still a rose!

Sweaty palms rubs my thighs as my heart beats outside my body. Clouding every irrational thought calming the fears of invisibility. Invisibility? If I reach my hand out and there is no warmth to feel, no vessel to embrace, a shattered heart will remain and I will awaken from this dream that I am comforting such lonely eyes. Doubt, fear, qualm about whether I should or should not take a step, take a risk…..take a chance….
Insurance comes to mind as to why I am here in the first place. To dance, To free a mind, deliver a heart, penetrate a soul. I step outside my mind and let my heart guide me through my soul and reach up. A face so warm, so alone, so misused. I dare not look into your eyes fore I will forever fall….I am not ready for that dance. This rose has petals that takes inside the feel, the shape, the liking of skin. A warm body whose energy is almost equivalent to the nurturing sunlight. Fingertips as soft as the petals themselves trace an outline, to detail your face to know yourself, to search for a response. Just as I catch a glimpse of those eyes I find myself closer, wrapped in the heat and suddenly I cant feel my feet. Climbing the sky, the pungent aroma of passion mixed with fear and disbelief fills the air as my lungs pulls in the scent of a lonely heart. No longer trapped in an unfamiliar world, relieved that its not too late, finally understood. I am close enough to plant a kiss but cannot decide…giving up the mind to the heart I grab the top of your neck just as I place my thumb right before your ear. I lean forward and with the last ounce of fear I kiss…I kiss sorrow away, I kiss neglect away, I kiss lonely away just at the corner of your lips. I am sure of myself again, my confidence in my ability to provide the smallest form of comfort has crept back into my mind and to my surprise I am still here, awake, not in a dream full of colors….my colors are ever present and a rose by any other name is still a rose!

Thank you so very much, there is a smile and a growing warmth where empty once resided…gaze into my eyes and take my breath away. Bestow my soul with reassurance of reality. Shake the dream realm and guide my soul back into the light, unafraid and ready to grow in total enthusiasm. Take this rose and see that the thorns are harmless, that a prick might plant a memory, it might reveal a course of action, it might show you just how to grab and nurture the rose.

Hope your day is growing to be a beautiful one. Have a great night and be on the look out for the full moon tomorrow….if you look hard you will see what I see…you have gained an understanding of who I am. your trip will be a great one. thank you so very much for everything! In the still of the night with the moon glowing, guiding, I will wait for the day when I can hold you in my arms and feel safe. You are in my thoughts. Thank you for showing me a whole new world.

Sunrise


He delayed his trip for 2 days because he had to see me for one last time. It was more than fulfilling. There was a moment when I felt like I belonged. I felt like nothing else mattered but being right there in that moment. 3 full moons passed before I had the pleasure of seeing him again. All that I thought was put to sleep, the feelings, the emotions that I felt with him, they were not gone, they were here. They never left. It was good to see him. My how I have grown. He stayed here for 2 days then he had to return to his new life. He took a piece of me with him. I will visit him sometime soon. Only time is capable of understanding how great love is. I have learned to make the most and enjoy everything that I have been given. What an amazing feeling to know that you made a difference in someone’s life.

I have just shared with you a little piece of the sunrise journey, thank you for listening to my experience.

I can only tell you
An answer from my heart
Where all emotions
Are pure
Bliss lives here
No misery
No confusion
Mere words will never show
Just what my heart feels
So I invite you to dance
And feel the depths
Of my soul
Silent words
On open thoughts
Revealed in actions
You speak
And it is heard
Show me
How do you feel?
The difference is simple
You opened the door
The path clear
Your soul cries
Redemption at last

Look past your scattered mind
Deeper
The answer lies within
You are looking
That is a start
If you don’t believe in your dreams
Who will?
You ask how I know?
Purity arrives
Clarity comes
When her time is right
Embrace the silence
Let the night bring
Peace
Ride on your hope
Lean on your faith
Fate comes in the morning
Troubled is your mind
Rest now dear one
The adventure continues
When you spirit is ready
To fight the demons
Once more
Sweet destiny
Will be on your side

Anticipation
Is strong within
To brace the unknown
Confidence is minimal
Hope
A farfetched idea
Faith clings to the
Anchor

Ready
To embrace the captivity
I am ready for
The joy and the pain
The time
The lessons

Life awaits me
In the good grace
Of your whisper

The exploration begins
The acknowledgment made
I will be patient
Kind
True
Thinking with my heart
Learning what you teach
I reveal all that was hidden
My offering
My soul
My eyes
My mind
What is enough?
Am I ready to sail?

The story begins
With just a little spark
Ignited by a longing desire
Lust has been here

Sweet destiny holds me
My desperation no more
Just when I thought
The glow would die
That oh so familiar feeling
Sank inside me

A slow burning fire
Rises to meet the dream
Feeling so alive
I have received
The answer

Passion lives here
With each and every touch
My hunger grows
While the fire consumes
Excited
My insides quiver
When you watch me
Watch you smile
Your eyes want
Your soul searches
Your shadow consumes
My eyes cannot hide
What my lips won’t say
I am happily excited by
Your everything
From my hair follicles
To my toenails
I feel like the breeze
I can’t control it
I cant hold it
I
Am ready

The flame grows
To a towering inferno
Hotter and higher
All-consuming
I end where you begin
Wrapped in a pool
Lost in your soul
Drunk in your need
Releasing your ache

My hands defining you
Nothing can prepare you
For the warmth
Of my mouth
I want to give my all

The overindulgence
Sends ripples though me
The blaze is set
Looking into your eyes
Remembering this moment
Claiming this gift
Riding on the power

The steamy window
Reflects the heat inside
Brace yourself


NOW ITS MY TURN...

Five very tiny
little fingers wrapped
Around my thumb
The very saddening
Crying came to an end
The contact alone
Soothed

Tears ran from
The tiny bright eyes
Longing
To be held
To be loved

The smile in my heart
Ever-consuming
Sent all my worries
Away

Just hours into this world
The sweet sweet innocent
Looked into my soul
And smiled

PRICELESS

An amazing feeling
To have the acceptance
The sharing
The merging of souls
I can only hope that
This soul will carry
Great strength

Five tiny little fingers
Wrapped around my thumb
Holding tight
Giving me strength
Unburdening my heart
Caressing my soul
Planting in my mind
A memory so rich

THIS I had to share!!
I love babies this one is to the mothers: thank you so very much for bringing us all into this world, caring and giving just a little bit of your essence. Mother’s get one day, one calendar day out the year to feel special, why wait???? Each day that I am here I have to be thankful to my hero’s the mothers of the world. I may not have the picture perfect mother, I may not even get along with her at times, but the fact that she introduced me into this world means so very much!!! I can only hope that when I become a mother, I will be just as loving, caring, giving. Thank you to the mothers!!! To the mothers that have gone on: thank you so very much for your wisdom, your kindness, your guidance. I am a stronger person because of you. To every woman without : find someone to be a mother figure to. Give advice, give unconditional love, find a mother to get this from!!!

i think every woman has a little bit of a mother inside her.

Smile though your heart is aching;
Smile even though it's breaking.
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by.
If you smile through your fear and sorrow,
Smile and maybe tomorrow,
You'll see the sun come shining through for you.

Light up your face with gladness,
Hide every trace of sadness.
Although a tear may be ever so near,
That's the time you must keep on trying,
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile,
If you just smile.

Instrumental Interlude

That's the time you must keep on trying,
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

First recorded by Nat King Cole in 1955
Later recorded by Natalie Cole in the 1991 album, Unforgettable With Love

You seem different
The smile
The laugh
Strange

Its confusing
Maybe a little cloudy

How could this be
I’m convinced
There is a stranger here

A drastic change
The kiss empty
The darkness creeps in

Am I the stranger?
Have you remained the same?
Have I really changed?

Your touch is forgotten
Unfamiliar whispers
The reasons unknown

Where is the beautiful release
The cautious heart
The peace tonight
Lies in the arms
Of a stranger

There were nights
When I fought tears
Stared at the phone
Watched the door
listened for footsteps
Needing you
Wanting you
I was hurting
Longing
For that familiar touch

Love, the dark rose

bound by your words
your soul
that chased my
sanity
my unhealed wounds

Busy were your days
Hurried were your nights
You had many unfinished
Matters
Your heart wanted more
Your mind sought comfort
Your soul cried to me

In my dreams you were there
I could taste you
Feel your eyes on my skin
Smell you on my pillows
Your shadow etched on the walls
Laughter echoed in the air

Love is a dark rose

I understood
I believed
I comforted
I answered
I loved

Free with my spirit
Giving with my soul
My all was yours for the taking
Everything you looked for
*the best thing since sliced bread*

Your words were there
Sunrise you make me feel
BRAND NEW
Amazing
You are a jewel
The apple of my eye
The beauty inside me
you whispered
Love was a dark rose


Interest slipped
Blind by the truth
Everything I had to say
Fell on deaf ears

Numb I became
What kind of fool am I?
When you so easily set me aside?

We made love
Sweet sweet love
I Lost my breath
Gave you my essence
Sent you on an orgasmic escape
When you screamed my name
Suddenly there was

No time
No friendship
No love

NO more
Love
of the dark rose

It was so simple
But you made it hard
Loving you feels
Like a battle

I am NOW free

My nights warm
I glance at the phone
Smile
Remember the good times
When it rang and I smiled
With your welcoming hello

Each day the pain lessens
Each sunrise looks a little brighter
I have made an attempt to be free
I will not hide
I will grow
I will smile

The phone rings
*silent
There is a knock at the door
*silent
A message in the mailbox
*silent

NOW you love me
Now you see
Now you want
What you gave up
You spent all your time
Searching
Waiting
Looking for a break
That would make it ok
Running on empty
Your piece of mind
That lingered within me
Searching
Needing
The endlessness that you feel
The need for comfort
All that you had
With me

Your eyes cant hide
What your lips wont say

You had the love
Of a dark rose

You finally see
Your love
That was on hold
That was reserved

Is in the here and now
Your bittersweet madness
Craving
Your restless nights
Your dreams filled

Now what are the chances
That my heart has waited??

You didn’t even say goodbye
You didn’t even say I’m sorry
You just left, moved on

Now you want me
In the arms
Of the very same arms
That let
Me
Fall
And walked away from me
Walked away from love,

The dark rose
