When something lives

  I lamented at loss, not let me celebrate at what I have gained I gained a woman who can accept my love freely, without letting her self esteem issues hold her back from it.  I am a very romantically aggressive lover.  I am overt, verbal and very intense with my love.  It is the only way I know how.  Yet L, my sweet, she just takes it all and gives it back.  I cannot explain how absolutely wonderful the freedom to love unrestricted is!  Finally, I can love as I want, and I do not have to worry about her drawing back, pushing away.   It was terrible at times, holding back this torrent of feelings I have for my loved one.  So hard to live with, the misery of not being able to express my love was.  And now, I have found one who loves being loved that way,  and I feel like I have been let out of a cage I celebrate my new life.  It is better in every way I can measure.  I wish my kids and grandkids were close, but that is the only thing I would change in my life right now!
