Vidalia (collab with Adelphina )
I Love You
Like roses bleed the color red
Blooming velvet petals of flesh
Gifting bouquets of life
Consummating consonants
as we vocalize the vowels
Words held our hands
until our hands held us
in physical sentences
Like the sky breezes into the blue
Creating fingers of soft air
Tracing your silhouette
Leading to night, candlelight
exposing skin above shadow
Like day once brightened us
now we lay heightened
Like the sun kisses skin into gold
With patient warm lips
Tinting flavors of you
Mouths tripping over tongues
Forgiving cigarette breath
and Spanish onions
for the sake of instant rapture
because tonight is now
and not tomorrow
Like parched soil wishes for
Spring rainbows
Brightening your soul
Like love, the storm before
that makes the dell turn lush
Like the blush, as our faces grace
the warmth of the other
Like tides sing to the moon
In harmony with midnight
Serenading you to sleep
'Til the beckoning of awake
early, for time is winding
our bodies into currents
joining, the luxury of our limbs
as our kisses reach for shared breath
~
I wrote this for you
But life is hard
Decided to keep it for myself
And yet here we are
words settled down
on the night table
as we serenade with sounds
our previous dreams.

Half of the pic is great. The other half is just me....
Don't thank me too much, I ate 90 percent of the Lucky Charms. Lol

Thank you Billy. We decided to let the secret out.
Besides, DUP needs some success stories! So many writers write of such things. Sometimes someone lives it out.
She is an incredible person, beyond writing skills. I stay amazed.

I love it when DUP members meet one another. Can't remember when that last happened to be honest.

Thank you Gary.
DUP is a writing community and is ultimately about the camaraderie of writing. That isn't going to change for me or her. Our relationship isn't going to take over our DUP interactions individually. Although I know it will cause many to steer clear.
I've always been polite and encouraging to others in here, except to the occasional douchebag that deserved some wrath. A few in here I'd call actual truly friends. But my point being is that I truly hope that for especially her, she isn't alienated by our pairing. She's a wonderful and classy person that deserves that in return.
I greatly appreciate your friendship in here. DUP is more than just post something and ignore all else. It's a community, and should be a reaching out. It's how we get motivated to push our writing forward. Right?

It's definitely a community. That's how I've always looked at it. I'm close to many people on here ( present company ) ..
I wish you two the best. I love Adelphina, as you may or may not know I call her Hot Sauce. You're a fortunate dude and she's a lucky gal ....

I appreciate it . It's already a relationship, actually. What! Lol.
It's kinda crazy how much we have in common, too. As soon as we met, it was destined. I know that's corny, and I don't care. We both deserve this. Good people deserve good things!
And no, it isn't going to take over our individual DUP identities much. We both are writers, etc.
It's like any other hobby really, that each can pursue as individuals. Although the sharing of ideas is pretty freaking cool!

Just wow! A little birdy told me I had to read this even though I haven't really been around and I am so glad I did. It's such an incredibly beautiful expression of appreciation, adoration, and love! You ate 90 percent of the lucky charms??? Those are fighting words. lol You better take care of her or else damnit! But I know there is gold at the end of the rainbow so keep shining!
You know I think nothing but amazing things of both of you... I am excited for you both that you found kindness, happiness, and love in each other. I wish you the very best!!! I needed some feel good vibe and this was so wonderful to read... :)

Thank you Kristina.
Bringing it out into the open was something we talked about off and on. For good or bad, though, here it is. And it was because of the feel good vibe, like you said. We're happy and don't mind telling the world. Lol.
We are still going to DUP it too. Lol. Hopefully we won't be abandoned by too many. Eeks!
