So Little Time
So Little Time
What can
We say
That isn't
Said
In the very
Little time
We give
To love?
Between
One drink
Of numbness
And the next,
The vast array
Of substance,
The tender
Vulnerabilities
Of being
Unclothed
In their
Disclosures,
The lost hours
Shrunken
To a maimed
Sense
Of reality,
The fear
Of receiving
Desired love?

Attachment theory is probably not on the top of the charts when discussing romance and sex, but intimacy is very much a topic, and how we relate is a part of that arena.
Thanks for reading and commenting.

Maybe it's your author's note, -I'm not sure- but I have that saying stuck in my head... "Work smarter not harder".... Sometimes we get stuck in the comfort of our 'usual' and it feels like it's easier to work ourselves to the bone mentally or physically than it might be to step back, taking the time to find the value and extreme benefit of deductive reasoning in regards to love, relationships and what would truly make us the happiest /healthiest in the scheme of things...
Fucking change and fear! .... I try to embrace the strength of conquering their varying effects, yet I do know how potentially crippling those emotions can be. They're probably some of the biggest hurdles to personally overcome, for many...
Your poem is insightful, refreshing and a lovely call to action to not waste one more second!
Thanks for sending out those vibes into the conscious minds of the deep, RT!

And thank you for spending time to read so fully....
Every instant is that way....a perspective away from being integrated in through gratitude. How can we turn the darkness into light? By seeing it for what it is.
