Truth

Posted on by Paul In The Buff

"You cannot see what I see because you see what you see. You cannot know what I know because you know what you know. What I see and what I know cannot be added to what you see and what you know because they are of a different kind. Neither can it replace what you see and what you know, because that would be to replace you yourself."

-- Douglas Adams, Mostly Harmless

Ode To The Last

In times like these, the profound escapes, and the profane takes over...

And to take from his lover
Every stitch of soul so cruel
All the passion she can muster
Yet he is the one that plays the fool

Once In A Lifetime

Posted on by Paul In The Buff

Once in a lifetime, you find the one with the heart your heart is meant to beat in rhythm with. You find the one with fingers your fingers are supposed to lace with. You find the one whose breath is the air you're meant to breathe. You find the one with the skin your skin is meant to warm.

When you find her, hold her tight. Feel your hearts beat in rhythm, memorize how her hand feels in yours, savor the sweetness of her breath when you breathe and promise her you'll always keep her warm.
