truthful love

February 26, 2016 21 Comments

Next time, bring your wine. Drink with me with til we’re sloppy– drunk with truth and love and hate. Say all the things we daren’t say. Laugh, cry, beat my chest with your fists. Then make hard, truthful love to me. Gnash your teeth. Take as you need. Feed.

      I’m glad you have. It’s a beautiful place to be. Real.

        That’s an interesting perspective. For me, this is a place of anger and need mixed with love. It is energetic but maybe not the happiest place to be. At least how I interpret this place. But yes, real.

          I suppose I mean beautiful in its authenticity.

            yes, true. Beautiful for the getting to the truth and being authentic in one’s feelings. I like that place. I need that place but authentic is hard for so many.

        To tell you the truth – beer and whiskey made one one of the boys, but a knowledge and appeciation of red wine…now that got me some distance down the feral path of Love.

          I can see that. Red wine is magical.
