A gorgeous write. If we could all have a passionate sweet true heart, everyone would find us worthy.

Awesome title, Gregory. As for the poem - I find that very hard to believe... as hard to believe as it is lovely.

That's very sweet of you, Line, I'm pleased you liked it, and I wish it weren't true ... yet here I sit, another night alone. I have loved deeply, and found two soulmates when some people never find one, so I am blessed to have known that, but I squandered it all, and now I pay the price. It makes for good poetry, though. ;-) Blessings, friend. <3
