Forever and A Day (the heartbreak)

“Forever and a Day”

“the heartbreak”

(part IV of “Open Letter to Love”, “Return to Sender” & “Happily Ever After”)

 I thought that once found...love would last forever and a day,

instead...I'm reminiscing about my first heartbreak:

Hopelessly Romantic:

 I gotta let IT breathe…

Love:

What is IT..?

Hopelessly Romantic:

The things I can’t control…

Love:

 So you’re giving up (on us)..?

Hopelessly Romantic:

You call IT giving up…I call IT moving on.

The first moments shared, were like a fairytale...Cinderella leaving behind a glass slipper,

and now...how could you leave me after we've been through more ups and downs than a zipper,

The universal triumph of achieving togetherness under the sun,

if my memory serves me correct…mission accomplished, the way we grew as one,

But in the same unpredictability of a forecast,

I could not foresee the way this relationship would soon come to pass,

not knowing my first would hurt like my last...

chance...at true romance...if only someone would've gave me insight, just a glance...

into the way this could've unfolded, in my heart, I thought we were molded...

together...forever, the way we made it through all the bad weather,

the thunderstorms and scattered showers, only mere moments that seemed like hours,

I can truly admit, they were minimal to the countless sunny days,

that put us both in a daze,

floating on cloud nine, the way our happiness shined,

but most times, just living through the rain, sleet and snow,

sitting here wondering why you chose to go,

Through it all you were supposed to stay... madly in love…Forever and a Day.

Happily Ever After...(the trilogy)

“Happily Ever After:”

“the confrontation between Hopelessly Romantic & Love”

(the trilogy to “Open Letter to Love” & “Return to Sender”)

HOPELESSLY ROMANTIC

I finally caught you. Well not caught you so to speak, but

finally get to meet you.

LOVE

Well, first of all I would like you to know that I haven't been

avoiding you, its just that...well...

Time after time, rhyme after rhyme, I hear the same old lines,

how “I should have this or I should have that.” From these

so-called “true lovers.”

HOPELESSLY ROMANTIC

But I'm different...I'm not like all the others.

LOVE

Oh really! You don't think I heard that one before?

(sarcastically laughing)

Well let me ask you this; what makes you think you're ready for me..?

Why should I give you Happily Ever After?

HOPELESSLY ROMANTIC

(looking up, in deep thought)

Where do I begin..?

(taking a deep breath)

Why do I deserve Happily Ever After..?

(rhetorical question)

The communication shared, which is the key that unlocks

the connecting door of mutual understanding between two

people that are devoted to one another. The support given to

each other, not only through moments showing difficulty or distress,

but those bringing ones of hope, promise and encouragement. The

little things, that when cherished...add toward the everlasting outlook

of Happily Ever After. The security one feels when in the presence of

wavering waters, knowing that the prototype will once again form its

originality. The passion expressed when the state of mental relationship

has reached the summit of infinite proportions...Not to mention the

sleepless nights, the tears, and all the pain you brought upon me while just

trying to find the true you...

LOVE

(cutting hopelessly romantic off)

Hold it right there...you brought that pain upon yourself.

HOPELESSLY ROMANTIC

What?

(puzzled)

What do you mean?

LOVE

So many look for love, thinking they are ready...but, you

don't find me...I will find you when the time is right. I see

right through to your heart...your true self. Knowing the whole

time, aware that you had me the whole time. All you had to do is

just open up and give of yourself, all the things you spoke of here

today and more, not only from your mind, but truly from your heart.

If you live every waking moment until the last breath of air leaves

your body...you'll have to search no further, I'll always be with you.

Forever and a day...

To  Be  Continued...

Return to Sender (the sequel to "Open Letter to Love")

“Return to Sender”

(the sequel to “Open Letter to Love”)

H/O/PE            

            To Hopelessly Romantic,

To whom it may concern, please return to sender,

I apologize it took so long...didn't mean to offend ya,

but you haven't been the only one searching for true love.

I know your asking yourself;

“why haven't I been by to see you?”

Well, its not like I go by numbers or in alphabetical order.

I go by passion...someone who is willing to give all of themselves

no matter what the situation...for example, I...Love, is sort of

like a board game. Of course you want to disregard all the rules

and bypass to the end, but love is more than that...we have to

roll the dice, taking that gamble with the squinting opportunity

of landing anywhere on the board. Also, hypothetically speaking,

Love is a marathon, testing the endurance of time...the time going

through the peaks and valleys of emotions. The finish line of this life

race is so near yet so far. So you have to have the proper training, at

the same time submissive to being coached and willing to step in,

and coach when the opportunity permits itself. Until such times of

these are foreseen...please be patient, growing in your areas of weakness,

balancing out your strengths, improving on your outstanding qualities

and before you know it...our paths will cross.

Thank You,     

                                                                                                                    Love...       

Open Letter To Love...

L/O/VE               

            Dear Love.

              

 I hope this letter reaches you in good spirits. Please allow me to introduce

myself, my name is “Hopelessly Romantic”. I know we don't know each other,

but my friends talk about you all the time. Its so crazy how I've heard so much

about you, but never really had the opportunity of actually meeting you. They

gave me your address, but every time I get the courage to stop by...you're never home.

I hope you don't mind, but they gave me your telephone number, but every time I reach out...

you're never around...(sigh) hope you got the messages I left. When I ask my friends

about you and try to get to know a little about you, our conversations end up like this...

  “how does she look?” I ask

“depends on who you ask.”, they say.

I reply, “how will I know if its love?”

“When not a day goes by and nothing else matters.” they answered.

“How come I can't get in touch with you?” I feel that I've gotten so close to you

time and time again, but then its like you're just a figment of my imagination...

Why is that? I've been around for countless years and never had the chance of

running into you. Everyone says that you'll drop by when I least expect it, but I

tell them you don't know my address. Well...hopefully this letter reaches you in

time. If and when you get this letter, call me, write me or just drop by sometime

so we can get to know each other...My intuition is telling me your out there...I'll

be patiently waiting...xoxo

Sincerely,

Hopelessly  Romantic...

Green Windows & Plastic Doors

What do u do when u feel so bogged down and ur only outlet is a 2.6" by 6.1" window, but u can't  see due to the Benjamin Franklin Venetian blinds that u can only see inside out, but in actuality there's no way out, so the room quickly feels with self doubt, causing you to think of another route, but the doors are locked from the outside in, so you look again to see the trap door made of plastic, with a combination security code located on the back of the door and everytime u use this code it sets up another backdoor into the club of surcharges and hidden fees that make u ask can we negotiate please? But the monthly minimum brings u to ur knees, months go by and the tension doesn't ease, when finally u've reached the top after going thru all hell, cleared ur debt, but no worries, they're sending u another one in tomorrow's mail.

looking 4 love n all the wrong places

Searched low, searched high...never really recognized it, so I wouldn't know it if it passed me by. So many places to go, so many stones unturned, does anybody know or are we all still tryna learn? They say It's associated with happiness and very few have encountered and endured the actual feeling, but when they lose it, they act as if there's no healing. Carrying yourself around like you've never had it...look in the mirror and ask yourself, how can someone take love and happiness away and you've always had it?

<3 Land

It's a place where people make the same mistake twice, thinking with their heart and not their minds. A place where people treat emotions like toys, they pick them up and put them down whenever they feel like it. Heartland once use to be peninsula, is now an island like Hawaii, symbolizing the pieces of a broken heart shaken up by the constant earthquakes reminiscent of the constant lies. It's where the feelings for someone else goes up and down like the rising and setting of the sun. Heartland, where every street is a one-way streets, dead ends and no outlets. A place where you don't wanna be if you're looking for love its on the other side of the mountain you've worked so hard to reach, but just remember, what goes up...must come down.
