You ever watch someone else fall in love?

Their Moment

By S.F. Reborn

Her thoughts take many roads

The journey leads back to him

She imagines his reaction to little things

Pouting a bit when her clues are missed

By a man equally taken by her

He makes her feel different

She finds him mysterious

She sees him as strong

How does it feel in his arms?

His thoughts take one road

The journey leads straight to her

He imagines her reaction if he acts unconcerned

Smiling when she pouts over clues he pretends not to notice

She makes him feel strong

Like a tree with many branches

Deeply rooted

She is the fruit he will bare and protect

He wants to hold her in his arms

I sit on a bench

Taking in the scene

Not saying a word for this is their moment

This is their time

    Cool, I like that!

    Yes, I have, a couple times. The one time, at the time it was happening, it made me not so much a happy camper. The couple I seen falling in love, the male partner was whom I was seeing. It hurt, but who was I to stand in the way, of someone actually falling in love. She could always get him to do things, that I could never seem to get him to do. So more power to her. They let me keep renting a room there. But I felt I was too much in the way, and I was getting homesick for my home town. So I moved, After the hurt and madness wore off, some how we all seemed to still remain good friends.

    He passed away a year and a half ago. I went to the funeral. His SO told me that he NEVER stopped thinking about you (me), he was always worried about you.

    You know, I believe he is still looking after me, from time to time I see other men that are a spitting image of Mike and different signs that he is near. As I walk by and come too that that person is Mike's twin, or Mike, I say hi Michael! I then look up to the sky and say Thanks Mike! It's kinda eerie, but yet makes me feel good, That is who Mike was, a care taker. He loved taking care of women that was down, and friends.

    How do you know they are falling in love? Did you ever think that he's just as hurt as you are, but maybe he's trying to fill that empty space with somebody else? If you were his first girlfriend then you know that everytime they do something together, he compares you to her. Remeber men really are the Master of Disguise. They can hide there emotions better than most women. And if he is hurting he isn't gonna want to show that to you, he's gonna try to move on and put on this front. For how to deal with it... well you say you love him right? well do you really love him, down to the bone? b/c if you really did truly love him, then his happiness would come first. I know where your coming from when you describe these emotions. I went through them recently myself. But I was able to move on, bc I knew I would rather have my X be happy with someone else, than be with me and be unhappy. I'm not saying it was easy. It wasn't but knowing and accepting that made things go more smoothly

    This is beautiful beyond measure. I have witnessed this many times, and still wonder when it will be my time. I had a chance, but lost it 10 years ago when my first love died of pneumonia. Maybe someday, that chance will come again. Still trying to separate the thorns from the roses. If that makes any sense!

    Heaven must assign a scribe to capture these moments for us, to be read to us in the afterlife.

    Honey, she loves you.

    There's no one else.

    Take the cue,

    8 ball is yours.

    Kick stand up,

    Ride into the wind.

  • It is a novel idea..
