Just hit restore!

Not a day goes by...

Re-igniting the coals:

The free love you gave

That brushed my heart,

The old flame

Remains.

Forever simmering

This time, the love

Was measured, a lifetime

Became.

Weathering the elements

Bestowed by time;

Never washed away, crying

Or blown away, forgotten

Neither burnt away heat, 

Pain.

The fire continues

That smouldering love

Still remains, saved.

Waiting.....

               Just hit restore.

A beautiful description of the love and passion that remains after a relationship ends...or pauses...
Lovely poetry my friend - filled with emotion that feels "real".

When we are truly loved and its really genuine
It kind of stays there
and just comes to life everytime that person comes around

Only sometimes we need to be reassured with action
a commitment for life
not just words

Sometimes we need to not have to restore all the time
We need presence
Mind over matter

sometimes we assess love and realize that true love lasts between the sorrow and the pleasure, and all that happens is all part of a relationship...but through it all the fire continues...the passion survives...

i like the file saving/restore analogy here, Andrew... love settles into a lull sometimes and it does take a click of that restore button to give it life...well-said, my friend

Thank you my friend for your kind words!
