Infatuated Infinity -

I love exploring with you,
searching through those places where treasures are spent
and burdens buried at the benchmarks of new beginings,
no avenue too aweful for our awareness, no bridge to narrow for our skills,

affection with a threat of devastation is the richest,
insurance is safety for the insanity of the insecure,
no need to lend my Love, for we share, 
and when there is no more marrow for the morrow
sorrow will be asked to go away
so that our mission may be remembered with pride and pleasure,
let us be foolish as innocence can be before breaking,
we will liberate boundries begging for beauty,
lead me to those high bluffs where danger yeilds to the bold,
you are the sweetest mystery I know -

J.A.B. %

I am so grsteful you have redirected me to this write of Love devoted to risk & reward Lindi. There is a very odd heartbeat herein, one of sharing, but also finality, devestation & victory. And the comments we exchanged are so moving too. I remember where my mind was when I composed this piece. Thank you for the love my Sphinx. J.A.B.

This is a description of a soul mate "affection with a threat of devastation is the richest,, insurance is safety for the insanity of the insecure,"....and the definition of pure unconditional love..

In order to explore we must care, and dare, and share Skat - if danger is just the begining then I wonder what the middle is - I am eager to be your mystery message - J.A.B. %

I am an addict to love. and exploring is an never ending adventure for me. You can call me crazy and insane, but danger is only the beginning of what makes ME ME, when it comes lending and sharing love. I will beg you for beauty and another comment, who knows you are a mystery to me as she is to you. ~SKAT

I agree my friend - maybe this is an exploration that we can take control over - searching in the sound of forever - its amazing when we become mysteries to each other, its then that we truly respect human life - J.A.B. %

Its all about believing in who you are; and when you truly respect the people around you, one can speak honestly, emotionally, and truthfully without fear. I'm honest with you because I respect you. J.A.B.

Yes, with no expiration date, and no rigid commitment either, just getting it done for the sake of powerful beauty here and now - thanks John - J.A.B. %

Truly an engorging poem you've masterfully written, Justin, once again. "affection with a threat of devastation is the richest"--that spoke pretty loud to me particularly. For me, that's the beauty of an infatuation-the threat of devastation. Touching ending too. Keep it up! Always, Laura

Yeah Laura, thats my favorite part too - easy to say though when the warmth of inspiration is abundant, the best aspect is perhaps, fighting through the doubts of depletion to keep the affection alive, to give it full life, to maintain the true color - how creative can we be in love, thats the test - J.A.B. %

ooo Justin, i like the sweet search... I found infatuated by a married guy many years ago.... and yes it felt infinite... sadly... it all up and left.. and what happen next was the beginning of my new life... I felt weird once all the infatuation wore off... however, it was nothing as sweet as this.. xox~LINDA

Yes Pd., desire can feel like a strength worth of infinity until it depart leaving an emptiness; but maybe there is a virtue in infatuation if we can dare to direct it effects for a stronger sense of self awareness, and to share - it sounds like your experience made you wiser and more empathethic - thanks my Sphinx - J.A.B. %
