ODD...THIS LOVE THING
3 LITTLE WORDS
Odd to me to feel you, and know you feel me...
and how long it has been and yet,
Not that long at all.
We sit cuddled, our legs wrapped around each others...
your arms around me and your hand from behind pulling my cheek down into your neck.
Heck, it feels like it ought to. It all does. Yes it do.
Blew me away that first day... when you said you loved me like you have never loved another. Brother, can you spare me a gray cell? Mine all just blew apart and died.
I couldn't hide the shock I felt, and yet...
SO good it felt. SO RIGHT it felt, too. Me and you. Who would have thunk it, not so long ago.
Yet, I knew. You did too. I know. So did you.
But one must be brave to say the truth
when you don't know how the other person will take it. But, you did. Yes you did...
and so did
I...
So why can it be SO HARD?
Just three little words, huh?
I LOVE YOU!
Mate? Not so hard, and yet...
Not like we were trying to create a lifelong thing here...no? Yes?
Oh yeh. Well, and I laugh, so we were and so we are.
But... why is it that one of the shortest sentences in the English language can be one of the hardest to say? Hey, I LOVE YOU.
Yeh, well easier now cause I know I do and so do you
and you love me and, well...
But then? For MONTHS we danced and sashayed and played the fools that we
were like two fourteen year old schoolgirls with a crush, but
then...well...
Now? I can say it right out loud.
HOWDY...DUDE, love of my life.
And so can you.
Right?
Yeh.
Yet... Yet...
This is the part that gets hard.
For me at least.
I can say it OUT LOUD AND PROUD...
but you can't.
Not yet anyway.
What will it take I wonder?
What will it take for you to make sure I don't think you are ashamed to love me?
I wonder...
Will the earth and the moon and the stars have to die and you and I will STILL never have shouted to the world how we feel about each other?
Brother. What a trip. Short bus to sad.
Bad.
I want rad. Rad HOLLERS...cause you see...
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK.
YOU AND ME...we got as much right as ANYONE...
And whoever don't like our love...SCREW THEM
Do them a favor. BLOW THEIR MINDS with US.
MAKE A FUSS...
and make them take their phobias and their bullshit and make them just go away. THIS IS OUR Time. IF NOT NOW? WHEN, Honey boy of mine.
WHEN? HUH?
How much more time you gonna waste on fear?
How much? HUH?
How much more...time we can NEVER EVER reclaim...
are YOU gonna WASTE..
on bullshit that don't matter and people who don't either.
HOW MUCH?
HUH?
I love you and if you can't say it out loud
I will for both of us.
Soon as you let me. LOL.
C'mon. Tell someone BESIDE me.
Much as I love to hear it...
I wanna share it
Cause you mean the world to me
BE.
Honeybear, we gotta BE.
Stop the waste...let's claim this space as OURS.
Flowers at our feet, and smiles on the faces
of those who matter. US... and for ALL those whose love no longer has to hide in the shadows... HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY. IT'S FOR YOU TOO YOU KNOW.
