It's been a while since we have those glorious time
When love was still new and full of euphoric wile,
I remember the moment you hold me dear in your loving arms,
With a blinding smile that even it rained or shine never gone
The time when all tasks were just worth a snap of a hand,
And when all efforts were not counted, and temper's all down.
It already became a childish mischief,
When we stole kisses like thieves...
Nothing can bother us that time
For our youthful minds thought tomorrow is in our palms.
Nothing is considered to be 'yours' nor 'mine'
'Coz love knows no greed and all things became entwined.
How lovely were those days, living in such fantasy...
Then suddenly, reality knocks and wake us up in our sweet nap,
And so we have encountered these so called 'trials',
When before we knew nothing of; this is so biased!
So, this previously cool temper was then triggered,
To the point when no one kneels to surrender...
One way or another, the battle continued, till one got battered…
How sad had become of Vongie; heart torn, wounded and daunted,
Oblivion sets in to the core of his very soul...
But vongie's love still prevailed against all odds,
When again he brawl & stood up against them all
He fought these villains just like a real knight,
Then all these so called trials became just a normal sight,
In exchange effort given side by side…
No burden is too much---when shared by two…
And so years gone by and vongie's still holding on
For that very moment, where forever will be a dawn...
Where we can grow old together with wrinkles and gray hair drawn,
It seems to be a perfect portrait to be longing for
And the driving force to let tears and sweat fall,
The ultimate thing ---worth dying for...
No treasure in this world could alter that priceless figure,
When genuine love in a lifetime was bore,
Never did I knew that I could love someone this deep,
Nothing in exchange but only true love to keep…
And so at this point, for vongie’s sake, we have to resist,
His call to let this love be settled and let hearts at ease,
For though age may be ripe, but this young mind is yet unwise,
A long long trip still awaits Vongie---a million miles…
Brilliant post! You speak well of a delicate balancing act between living well the life we presently possess as single...and the truth that our hearts long to be held dear to another. One hopes for it, and at the same time dreads the risks involved. And sometimes wonders if the peaceful routine of single life isn't perhaps just fine as it is.
My life as a single woman is full. I am not bored. But I want to be dear to someone. I am in fact dear to many, but it has eluded me to become especially dear to someone who is especially dear to me.
I know exactly what you mean. Exactly.
It would be so cool if all of us could get together for Beerz sometime. :-)
Misery loves company, although I find that the resultant bonhomie of being in good company dispels said misery. Or maybe it waz the beerz.

Warren,
Misery loves company, and joy does all the more.
Despite what the old polka song says, "In heaven there is no beer, that's why we drink it here," I like to think that all those Belgian Trappists are still contentedly brewing away in their celestial home.
It would be so cool if all of us could get together for Beerz sometime. :-)
In that day, should I find myself glorified in body and joyful in heaven, I will celebrate my surprise and amazement by finding you and buying the first round. Here on Earth, with my fallen body and soul, I will stick to coffee; should you find yourself in New York you are welcome to join in the adventures of the St. Philip Neri Fun Club.
Blessings,
FS
Ahh! Coffee is good.
Well, I make excellent Coffee. With the Beanz fresh roasted at home.

Dear Mr. F. ~
Excellent post! Thank you for continuing this most interesting and timely discussion.
I will meditate on the subject a bit at Holy Hour tonight, as well as pray for all singles and hopefully will be able to post something tomorrow.
Blessings.
