Something I wrote last year to my love. And it was sitting in the archives. 

Hes gone now. His heart could not keep up and he went to rest. But his memory remains. 

 

 

The opposite of addiction is connection Riptide provides a strong direction Gathering us up and bringing us along with a pull so strong It took us a long time to get here both of us a bit worse for the wear and now that we are near we won't ever let go We were always each others The bond we made was strong and we could never go wrong The bindings now sprinkled with wisdom and experience The love delightful and delirium Why did we wait so long we ask? Because neither of us could risk what we had for what might be And now we can't risk what we have The pull to strong the day to long and we both need, want and desire the other freely Lets just be together Lets just be together Susan Speaking to Alan (C) 8/29/2023 Susan Manley

Dearest Susan, What a beautiful tribute to love, loss, and the enduring power of connection. I loved how your words capture the essence of profound loss and the eternal presence of memories. Your raw honesty and vulnerability are so moving. Thank you for sharing this intimate piece of your heart. - Blessings, my friend, Daniel
