Promises to Keep.....
Ari_fairy 5/19/2008 11:58 pm
In an instant...this moment will have passed...and all that might have been...will be no more. New possibilities creep in with each breath we take; new dreams arise to fill us with hope. There are no guarantees in life; no promises that the sun will ever lift itself to shine upon us. Yet there are promises to be kept. Some promises are only whispered in the depths of night when the only sound to be heard is that of your gentle breathing.

My mind floods with the emotions that I feel at the sound of your voice; laughter that resonates in the deepest corners of my heart. I do not know the answers...nor even fully yet the questions. Still, I know that there are tendrils of hope you have sent me...a dream that only two can fulfill; a course that only two can walk. No promises that ever we will walk this path, yet still....promises to be kept.

What is today is not necessarily what will be tomorrow. Time changes all and in your journey there is much you have done to smooth your own path....yet still...you walk it in solitary silence. If determination could win battles there would be no more, for you would have won them all. Hold tight to that dream; to that strength; to the faith that what we will...can be. Another promise yet to keep.

You stand alone upon the barren ground, facing all that comes to you with only what you can muster of your own. I tell you truly, love...reach out your hand and I will take it. Let me be the rock you lean against....as you have been for me. Let me be the ear that hears your pain....and the arms that hold you close so that none will ever take your strength again. As you hold me up and bring laughter to my spirit when it is broken...so let me hold you. I am not weak; I am not afraid; I want only to give to you as you give to me...with open heart, with confidence, with trust, with love. My promise to keep.

As one can be bent in the winds of frustration, two can hold strong to one another. As one can fail from weariness, two can find strength in one another. As one can find silence echoing with loneliness, two can find it rings with companionship. There are no promises, love...and no opportunities if we fail to reach out and take them. Reach out your hand to mine...trust that always will I hold it tight....and know that what strength I can loan...is yours...always...from my heart....to yours. A promise I will always keep.

Feel the passion, walk in peace, live in love....Ari

Thank you. I really appreciate your generosity. There was much I felt as I wrote it..but overall....and abundance of love.

Welcome to the blogs...and welcome to my blog.
