swooning of the wound

swooning of the wound

 

 

 

spandex love,

one size fits all hearts

movement unimpeded

 

if we just wear a perpetual smile

for others,

and render those tenders

 

(we tend to clutch

to our breasts, impermeable)

emotional evidence subdued

 

could be construed

as incumbent infections

spreading in all directions.

Loving feelings are supposed to expressed and not disguised. Well done Jacob

A nice write for these days good manners or being courteous is considered as being flirtatious in today's young world!

false love is a lot like spandex. it's the master of disguises....

better to be genuine and honest about what you have to offer, rather than try to appear as if you are something you really are not.

wonderful metaphor.

like all emotions, love is contagious if we share it, spreading to those who need it... love it, my friend

Oh yes, let that love expand to include others for when we keep it too close to us, to our own wants, our own needs we tend to nurture our wounds and not those of others. What we feel so often is that which hurts our pride, our "ego" of the heart and then we can't open up to see the hurts of others. Again, YES! Let's allow that love heal the wounds of others, not keep it so hidden inside but reach out to give love as well as accept love!!
Swooning of the wound if soothed with the right ointment will leave no scar! Our boo hoos can comfort the pained spirit of another - if we allow it.
