Mature Love

Living into senior years with a sadness always at the edges of it, thinking back, wondering how you ever made it in one piece to where you are right here in this place. Seeing an entire lifetime filled with family in and out of grief, sadness, loneliness and emptiness, how these things get hold of us is a mystery never to be solved. Loving into the future with a mature love filling your heart, keeping you warm on dark, cold nights and holding your hand through daily trials and suffering of life. Knowing the goodness, peace and kindness as it fills your mind and heart, reminiscent of a baby being born and the unending love you have for it's beauty. A love in the end, holding you safely, helping you feel alive, keeping you within the confines of your being, yet being sent all over the universe in depths of happiness for what you have found at long last. One true mature love, no more childish whims or mistaken traces of it's essence, it is a total emotion, a choice selected by a heart that cannot contain itself without the other. A beautiful sentiment filling your senses with the utmost sanity you can ever find in this life here on earth.
