The Story of Us – Remix

by Carl Watson Posted on September 9, 2012

You, me and we forged in fire
Fear and lust mingle, conspire
Long open, wounds feed love lost
Hardened hearts dipped in frost

Melt, anneal and transform
Steel strong bonds, heat to form
A new kind of mettle so rare
Made with pure intent and daily care

You, me and we forged in desire
Poly real, committed feel, a love rewire
A new story written to hug and protect us
Authored with flair, signed with love and lust

The story of us, a new beginning
Tale of mettle and steel and care, of hearts interweaving
Cherish every chapter and page, paragraph and word
Our story, our love is mightier than the sword.

The Story of Us

by Carl Watson Posted on September 1, 2012

You, me and we forged in fire
Long open, wounds feed love lost
Fear and lust mingle, conspire
Hardened hearts dipped in frost

Slow fire, pure intent and daily care
Melt, anneal and transform
A new kind of mettle so rare
Steel strong bonds, heat to form

You, me and we forged in desire
A new story written to hug and protect us
Poly real, committed feel, a love rewire
Authored with flair, signed with love and lust

The story of us, a new beginning
Cherish every chapter and page, paragraph and word
Every detail of mettle and steel and care, of hearts interweaving
Our story, our love is mightier than the sword.

heart talk

by Carl Watson Posted on August 18, 2012

“Form is only emptiness, emptiness is only form”*
Instant karma, uncertainty, an emotional storm
Your way? Mine? An emptiness, the heart transforms

Old friends risk romance
Different paths, same love, exact same chance
Deep, meaningful, committed, this is our dance

What the hell are we thinking of?
Don’t hold tight, heart in hand in glove
Let go a little, find a little love

One at a time doesn’t always equal true
Perfect chemistry, a strange new brew
Let go completely, love completely too

* The Heart Sutra
