The Smoothness Of Our love
~Smooth~ Poem
In the depths of my heart, a memory lies,
A once vibrant love, now tinged with goodbyes,
Smooth as silk, it slips through my grasp,
Leaving behind an ache that forever will last.
𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐈 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐲𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟,
𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐭𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟,
𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐠𝐨𝐧𝐞,
𝐓𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐰𝐧.
The touch of your hand, so gentle and warm,
Smooth as a whisper, it could weather any storm.
But time's cruel embrace, it fades away,
Leaving behind echoes of a love in disarray.
𝑶𝒖𝒕𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆 𝑰'𝒎 𝒍𝒂𝒖𝒈𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈,
𝑰𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆 𝑰'𝒎 𝒄𝒓𝒚𝒊𝒏𝒈,
𝑾𝒂𝒔 𝑰 𝒍𝒚𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖,
𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝑰 𝒔𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝑰 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒕𝒓𝒚𝒊𝒏𝒈?
I'll hold on the smoothness of what we had,
Treasure the moments, both joyous and sad.
For even as time erodes the memories we keep,
The smoothness of our love will forever run deep.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

oh a lost love and with it the protection it provided. Yet, all the damned hurts we get teach us and toughen us. We just have to make sure they don't toughen us to the point where that special person/friend/lover/mentor can't get in.
This hit me so hard. So poignant and beautifully written!
. Outstanding!
Wow! Beautiful poem!
