Somewhere in Connecticut

I am connecting this piece to the image below which carries the name:
The Path To My Lover

.
Everyday, the lover within is honing in on all that brings me clarity and purpose in attaining more understanding and access to allowing my point of attraction to shine.
.
This is about memories and moments and it is about observations that occur. Ain’t life grand? From one day to the next we have the opportunity to breath deep the contrast that is developing more and more clarity around our desires for expanding who we are in our ever loving Life.

.
Lovingly,
for NOW.
Linaji

She is waiting for him sometimes..
not a longing that is tired,
but one that catches her breath at times
locked in a meditative demeanor
she looks out the window
It is then she mistakes him for a passerby
.
(once in awhile she sees him in her minds eye coming back into her arms again, like some romantic tale… so she writes)
.

Somewhere in Connecticut
.

when you vanish.. I must be in Connecticut somewhere
looking for the farm I think you have bought
right out from under my nose

.

It was those nights you nibbled on my ear
Then read to me from your journal
Trips to Paris,
CNN… beer and hookers
Your friend you said
Had a penchant for long legs and careless longings
(Outside the norm)
.

It was the way you read to me.
You reminded me of a teacher I once knew
I had a crush on him,
Professor of my Philosophy class 101
His hair was always tangled up
with dustings from his his chalky fingers.
Pacing back and forth talking to himself
Reveling within his own musings
Stubby hands with nails bitten down
.

You look nothing like him
.
One day we stole away to his bed
he caressed me and read to me of things outside his
Classroom ramblings.
He read from his heart and I cried because I knew this
Was the part I had waited for and had longed to know
He then took me with his wholeness of desire and I
Flourished that day,
.

Like I do with you my darling
When I can find you
When you decide that my interest is sincere
When you feel the need to see more of how I see you
In the middle of the world there is so much for me to see
.

And then,
Like the last act in the ‘House of Deception’
.

You vanish
.

    Linaji, have I read this before… or am I out of my mind? ...actually, that’s where I read it first.

    “It was those nights you nibbled on my ear” strikes me as deadly romantic
    ...did I say sexy 2?

    This piece strikes my heart a thousand ways. I felt it … I was there and I know how he comes and goes. And I see him too, in other people though they look nothing like him. You have given me such a wonderful tale … I will cherish this piece because it IS me.
