not sure if its at all relevant, but it reminds me of something i wrote a while ago. your post reminded me of it.
"loving other, labeled lover"
so do i give up or just accept that not even love is strong enough to persuade the ones it infects to give up on the consequent liberties with which it conflicts
circumstances have been less than favorable its your heart that i know has been labeled the adhesive residue from the peeled off paper that once held that label until its application has suffered the loss of its beared content
your mouth says things that don't seem to correlate with the ideas that seems to dominate your thoughts if you do love me, it would be possible to leave any reservation or desire that you had behind maybe its not love, maybe it will be one day but if love were truly present to your fears it wouldn't sway
not that i could ever love you any less a sense of worry i had never had to extinguish has suddenly leaped up into burning flames and though i could love you without an egalitarian idea of reciprication the qualities you found in me would fade
to some extent i have been to blame offering an experience previously imaginary an embrace that would shatter all others a kiss that would dissolve all barriers offering a relationship unsurpassable a love that would make the oceans boil
though i will try and not lament reality that you could be with another man smiling widely into his eyes starring 'cause this is a path i've been down before have you ever loved someone without them being yours
the clocks will keep spinning their arms in forever fixed rotations and i will continue wishing for your devotion to lack hesitation

Thank you, sir. I'm ready to let loose tonight, and shake off such emotional constraints. Pick you up 8-8:30pm?
