Laws of Attraction

Mind over matter It seems the mind is more forgiving than the matter Love at first sight Magnets inseparable Believing true love could Conquer anything but anything butt up against matter Hard enough Long enough turns out is enough is enough for matter to shift Attraction becomes Repulsion leaving Mind over matter The mind forgiving matter not forgetting Both hoping time will heal the wounds

Nice play on words. Creatively musing here wow. Attraction becomes repulsion, yeah that seems to be the law of love nowadays I swear what I hear of many couples in different parts of the world. Your poem is superb. Kudos. Nice to read from u again. Pls do write your thoughts about my latest poem too, under it.

It is so true. The tremendous pressure we put on love to fit our dreams. Your poem reminded me of that as I read. Cautioned me in fact to have no expectations and just love.

Your wisdom rings true. Right now I'm just wrestling with at what cost.

Thank you Heidi :) So true, and I've met some lost souls, lost as they refuse to learn. "Ya can't teach someone who already knows everything" ;) xomo!

Bad experience may hurt but still teaches us of how to go about next time! If inventors were giving up after their unsuccessful initial efforts there would not be...computers today for us to communicate! Haha. Beautiful philosophical writing dearest, Maureen!

I LOVE this Maureen - so much hard truth here, put into exquisite phrasing and tempo ... fav-ing this. I haven't said this here before, (though it's intimated in my work), but I am a recovered addict, addicted over 30 years, and while it's something I have written of many times, it needs even MORE attention ... and discussion. Thank you for this - just wonderful!

Maureen Mcgreavy

I am honoured Greg, more than you could know. While I have had my problems with addiction, loving an addict is something else. I would rather be writing love poems. My body has endured much trauma, however cognizant of the disease and understanding and forgiving I be, the body remembers. Mind over matter I quit tobacco and pot cold turkey, but I can't turn my body back on. Thank you again :) xomo
