The score

The score

A Poem by Island Hippy


on the wings of
your silent kiss
drifts a melody.
sweet & strange
my soul, feather light

a divine thing.
you don't have to
wear false charms
my darlin' my arms
never ever falter.

no score to keep
just hearts to
steep in love
like ripples
ever increasing.

love me today
for tomorrow
is not promised.
let hearts dwell
in healing places.

So exquisite, delicate, lyrical and powerful at the same time-Leaves me breathless...this is what true love means. "no score to keep..just hearts to steep in love like ripples ever increasing" "Love me today for tomorrow is not promised. let hearts dwell in healing places." Flows like music that makes diamond tears. Brava my sister!

when score is kept in love---it becomes a non-winnable game---
it's not a competition, it is about giving without needing to receive, to be paid back equally...if both give that way...love heals.

Mahalo, well said Jacob!
This has a forlorn romance to it, a grace yet a seeming acceptance that perfection and longevity are not assured Izzy.
