How to love in a proper way?
..."Then you say, slow down, my love,
Don't love me anymore."...

Well, who said it was going to be easy?
Love is the Lesson here, and it is a hard one. An amazing maze with an awesome gift at its heart... :))

Anyway; A very beautiful poem!

(Never be afraid to love "too much", even if the other person is!)

Leaning on human beings, whether they are lovers, friends, families and the likes, most of the time they are like broken reeds, often, unwilling to help or be there for you when able, and willing when unable. It is in times like these we should take advantage of the great gifts of solitude and silence. Quite often solitude is better than society and silence is wiser than speech. For it is in our time of solitude and silence, we really find ourselves and truly find God, our secured overflowing brook of consolation. Passionate write, your poetry!

This is true my friend!

All or none and it's perfectly catched here!

Can't control emotions. It's like controlling an untamed heart.

Impossible.

I commend you for being what I could never be. I can accept all and I can accept none. I have had to personally accept none, more often this has made me more bitter, sarcastic, cynical, and angry. I do have my moments when I can rise above that, but not as often as I wish. I love the strength in which you can soar with optimism, ambition, and hope when there are times that I feel I am being dragged down. It helps me considerably thank you.

Yes, our wonderful Zoya, that is how you are! How could we say to the water source to stop glittering??
