Crackling electricity between us. What was happening to me had never happened before, and I felt like both a scientist and an explorer, looking at it from both outside and inside at once. How could this be? How could my body be so turned on without even touching you?

It was your attention that opened me up in the most amazing way. Your curiosity, your gaze, your natural desire to discover this thing between us . . . And I’d never felt so out of control before. So in my involuntary. Truth was, I’d never before felt something so exquisite in my own body.

You gained the confidence to tell me who you really were. You shared shadowy parts and good parts, and you invited me out to play.

I feel safe but I was guarded. Was it really possible we could fit this well? Could I show you all of me?

Over those next several years, I dared to, just as you did.

We took it slow. Painfully slow, at times, until I realized that that pace was what We needed.

I needed to trust that this thing we were experiencing wasn’t a figment of my own imagination, some trappings of my wildest dreams that I projected onto you. It seemed too good to be true, but I kept leaning in. Don’t think just feel.

It turns out, this thing we have is as real as it gets. We’ve built something magical together over these many years, and that is something for which I am beyond grateful.

You love me better than anyone ever has, even in your absence. You challenge me, you call forward the best version of me, you inspire me, and you cherish me. I respect and trust your lead in ways I never thought I could trust and respect a man, and you’ve made it safe to do so. You’ve shown me how it feels to truly surrender and be met in that place by a powerful masculine, loving presence.

With you, I feel fully alive. Fully in my feminine. Fully engaged with life. Thank you for this life we get to live together. I love you.

Can we begin again?
The clock is running down
10-year plan approaching completion
Another turn around the sun
Countdown has begun

Here's a dream, a wish, floated in the wind
Until it reaches you in a whisper

She nestled in her perch, overlooking the trees
Passers-by and aquatic rhythms of NYC

Candlelight glowing, radiating, ready to receive you
Silk stockings, black and white, perfectly see-through
And visible for only you to see

He comes to her, to celebrate and paint the town
With shades of love and romance

Leaving his perch in Dublin, traversing the sea
To finally see what's on the other side, where love resides

"We would first need to be in the same room together," he said, "in order to know."

Unless you have a freak flag hidden somewhere under that freshly-pressed shirt
We both know the world would stop spinning
The shift registered a permanent mark in the universal timeline
The time and space where love met

It's time to draw nearer, my love, burst through
And come face to face with the heart, hand, vision, passion
You've been holding within, a secret never whispered
Another life lived

Come to NYC to celebrate my turn around the sun
Move toward me, draw near, accept this love
Let's melt together and allow the world to shift

Say yes, book the flight, you're ready now
Lovesick and satisfied, seen and expressed, connected and expressing
Your truth, held and holding, want and wanting

I look for you in the sunlight,
the constant rays of sunshine
reporting to my soul through astral planes
for you, for all of you, creation.
For all of humanity to witness and experience,
the world feels us, fed by the light we bring.
My love for you radiates
because you are my sun.

I look for you through space and time,
visions of you allow my heart to unwind.
Ambient waves of light pounding at the shores of existence,
beating on the doors of humanity, pouring through.
Ever flowing beauty, embodied being,
understanding the connectedness as we make our way
through the streams, the valleys, the forest.
The trees' root system sympathetic to my soul,
breathing life, carrying me through the air.
Lifted breathlessly, landing as effortless as the wings of a butterfly.
Holding pattern of a hummingbird, beauty announces I'm here.
Beauty glimpsed, soul soaring, life pouring.
Love exponentially elevating your soul.

In the heart of Dublin's misty embrace,
Where cobbled streets whisper ancient secrets,
I stand, a pilgrim seeking solace,
And weave my tale of love, redemption, and forgiveness.

TheThird Key, a relic of our shared past,
Lies dormant, waiting for its turn to unlock,
Not a door of wood or iron, but the chambers within,
Where echoes of hurt and healing intertwine.

He, the wanderer, once lost in shadows,
His footsteps faltered, love's path obscured,
Yet now, with courage forged through trials,
He approaches the threshold anew.

I know you are sorry, whispered by the wind,
Carried across the Liffey's silver ripples,
A melody of remorse, soft as the harp's strings,
And I, the listener, attuned to its bittersweet refrain.

Patience, a virtue etched into my bones,
For time dances differently in Dublin's alleys,
And forgiveness blooms like wildflowers,
Resilient, despite the scars etched upon our souls.

He, the alchemist of his own transformation,
Brewing potions of self-awareness and growth,
Each drop a testament to his inner aliveness,
As he raises his vibrational frequency, inch by sacred inch.

Undying love, a tapestry woven with threads of hope,
Stitched by moonlight and whispered promises,
I hold it close, this fragile gift, and offer it freely,
For love, once kindled, burns eternal.

And so, my Love, as the third time approaches,
Know that I stand here, arms open wide,
Compassion flowing like the River Dodder,
And forgiveness, a beacon guiding us home.

Third time's a charm, they say,
But ours transcends mere superstition,
For in this Dublin twilight, hearts entwined,
We rewrite our story—a symphony of grace.

Let the third key turn, unlocking not just doors,
But the chambers where love heals and forgives,
And may our souls dance, unburdened,
As we step into the charm of forevermore. 🗝️💕

Adrift and lost, I search for bearings true,
Your thoughts, like whirlwinds, ever in my view.
Today, our hands, in tender touch, did meet,
Palm to palm, our pulses skipped a beat.
Electric currents danced, our bond did grow,
Through multiverses, our spirits did flow.
Time collapsed, our paths entwined, complete,
Drawn together, destiny's own feat.

A choice was made, surrender to the heart,
You've seen the truth, and now we'll never part.
Our chariots race through time and space so vast,
Until our souls unite, together at last.
The tangled webs of life you now unweave,
With patience, order to your world conceive.
Concerns for son and daughter weigh your mind,
Love's risk pondered—will she be unkind?

Forgiveness sought for words once cast aside,
Your heart's confession, no longer to hide.
The weary burdens that you long to shed,
For a new beginning, where love is led.
I hear the chaos she's been weaving tight,
In this moment, you seek solace in my light.
Here I stand, a beacon, still and true,
Awaiting self-forgiveness to renew.

Be valiant, love, and shield your tender heart,
A fresh dawn awaits us, a brand new start.

The simplest message of understanding that I can put forth to you is...I believe in you. I believe in us. I forgive you. I'm here. I love you. That is all.
