The peace of freedom to just be together, without having to make a lot of fuss. Acceptance and accepting. "Security" is not an ugly word. YES.

The peace of freedom to just be together, without having to make a lot of fuss.

Acceptance and accepting.

“Security” is not an ugly word.

Amazing.

Life-changing.

But I so wanna surpass that emotional roller-coaster.

Bliss.

Gentleness.

Comfort.

Security.

Firm conviction.

… a strong shoulder to lean on.

I’d opt for this anytime.

Now with the benefit of hindsight.

Oh that welcome quietude,

oh these sweet platitudes…

The things I had been, I totally missed

… and found again.

because of you.

Oh, i love the bliss and quiet when I am with you

But that's what it's supposed to be I think. We fall so we can learn to pick ourselves up, and that old chestnut was never truer than we we speak of first loves.

It was passionate and exhilirating, but over heartbreak and years together and apart, I can think of him now as a person and not an ideal, and I think I've grown because of that.

Lose my body, lose my mind, I blow like wind, I flow like wine... Down a corridir of flame, Will I fly so high again? Is there something wrong with me? I cannot hear, I cannot see...' (Michael Moorcock) ‘A Golden Warrior speaks to me,
Denying my reality.
Lose my body, lose my mind,
I blow like wind, I flow like wine…
Down a corridir of flame,
Will I fly so high again?
Is there something wrong with me?
I cannot hear, I cannot see…’

In retrospect is the only way to see this. Sometimes people use the word "love" when they mean "mutual devouring." I always love the person I think they are. Some times they are, sometimes they aren't. But I have finally learned not to gauge my own value as a person on someone else's scale. So true…often what we thought was love, wasn’t really.

We ended up hurting each other a lot. But I wouldn't be the person I am today had I not experienced that kind of heartbreak.
