How Do You Make Love Stay ??? ~ Susan Lynne Schwenger

You, asked me... "how do you make love stay?"


You, asked me..."how do you make love stay?"

Rope...

you give them plenty of rope,

and, hope they do NOT hang themselves

you allow them, to be them

and, they allow you, to be you

and, if per chance

you find each other

all is, as, all can be

wUnder_FULL again

there's a tree outside my front door

it's there for a reason

i hang, all my troubles out there

i do NOT bring them inside

i give the best, i can

all of me,

and, hold nothing back

i eXchange

only with those

who are ready, willing, and, able to do,

the same sort of thing

i love always,

and, in all ways

the best i can

it is NEVER a requirement

they love me back

i do NOT believe in unconditional love

especially in a 3D world

everything in lower vibrations operates on conditions

low energetic exchange-is dismissed

high energetic exchange-is welcomed

if someone treats me poorly

it is NOT necessary to love them

it is necessary only to release,

and, forgive them

and, let them go

to send them some energy

that points them in the direction of good light and pure love

i am a deep well

but, NOT one that will be drained.

i strive to create good conditions,

that express love, in it's totality

i look for another

who is already doing the same thing

i give space, and, i expect space

i let another be authentically them

i do NOT change others

i expect another, to let me be authentically me

i respect the free_will of choice

i am open to the eXchange

living in love

with love is win-win

and, appreciation, caring, kindness, and, thoughtfulness

are the 4 pillars that hold it ALL up

i give willingly, and

share what i can, within reason

yes, i do utilise my mind

as, well, as, my heart

i do NOT look for a "free_ride"

nor, do i expect a "free_ride"...

FREE, oft times

has the highest of hidden costS

i invest into the things i do

by giving it, the best i can

i look for someone

who can be the driver

and, be the passenger too

it gets tiring being only, the driver

i look into the mirrors

that are presented to me

and, see, very deeply what they show me

i look very deeply into the eyes

that are presented to me

and, can always see

that they have a heart

and, it is already, at home

where, i see, no heart

i try to help them see mine

i look deeply

to find the golden strings

the threads of connection

those old ones

that once before

a very long time ago

where a stitch in many times

are part of a grand tapestry

we woove together, once before

and, realise

it is possible

to pick up the strings

exactly, where we left of

and, we do it

together, in love

i push only, when two people are pushing on the same side

or, are pushing in the eXact same direction

i pull only, my share, of any load

i eXpect another, will pull, their share

albeit, there will be times

when, i do all the pulling

and, there will be times

they do all the pulling

but, it is those times

they will do, or, i will do

because, we are doing it in love

and, the other truly needs us

and, both of us

are in our hearts

perhaps, that is compassionate love

the knowing

that, at all times

it is NOT possible

for another to bring equal measures

I search for a banquet

hoping, we do NOT bring all the same things to the table

that there will be living, loving, and learning...

expansion and growth

i know

a life shared is never halved

but it doubles in value

i get up expecting a good day

and, generally get it

and, rarely do i experience disappointments

i do nice things for others

willing to put their needs, and, desires

ahead of my own

however, i am NOT anyone else's fool

albeit, i am also an old ‘lone’ traveler

someone who understands that ‘lone’ journey quite well

i avoid people, full of "wants"...

if they can NOT handle their own life

i know, it will become me playing a baby_sitter

needs must be met & desires fulfilled

those who want stuff

those who need you

only to fill their desires

and, once you do

they are gone

i avoid those people

To live a happy, and, joyful life...

it is only important

that needs are met

and, desires are fulfilled

and, that leaves NOTHING to want for

i love to surprise people

i am NOT big

on giving, on giving days

as, i believe, everyday is a day to give

i do NOT give to get,

nor, expect to get

so, i am rarely let down

if someone takes, and, leaves

i bless that moment

for in it, the taking is stopped

the draining is NO more

sure, i count my losses

calculate & learn from my lesson

and, let it all go --

I release it, and, forgive it

and, be thankful

it is less draining NOW

i feel blessed, that it has stopped

and, it is good

since, the draining can exist NO more

and, i celebrate my freedom

i send things, that make them "hOWL" with laughter

or....make them curious

or....make them happy

or....make them ponder/or think

actually, in truth; i send them things

that are reflective of me,

and, my world

in one line -- it is, to be, and, reflect me, as, best i can

and, if, per_chance

they see me, as, i truly am

then, all, will be, as, all should be

together

the two of us

will always be more, rather than, ever be less

together

the two of us

might weave golden strings

through the higher mind & higher heart of one another

so, that, when we do show up

they will know, and, i will know

they will see, and, i will see

and, they will sense me,

and, i will sense them

deep inside

that we both will know

who we are, and, be glad

that we have returned

to pick up the threads

Perhaps, then, The Dance with Sadness,

will truly come to its end.

where the pain, of starting again,

is less, than, the memory

of the pain involved

in the last separation

Perhaps...my most clever line to your question, could be summed up this way:

how do you make love stay ???

true love, never leaves us

it is the dance, we do

that old dance

The Dance of Sadness

it's deep inside

it's magical

it's the old memories

of what once was

and, already is

it always has been there

buried under the pain

of the last parting

trouble is

that the "pain" of "re_starting"

is, often, more painful

than, when the original dance

came to an end.

And yet, it is a risk

we must take....

we do this, to be that

and, to have it all over again ...

it is that type of love

that lives on, and, stays with us forever

  written long ago; needs some edits
  Brian Maluchnik
  well... you are the writer.. but I think it hits the spot....
  I am more of a reader....When I start to read something it either grabs me...or bores me...
  From what I have read that you have wrote... I enjoy reading it....
