I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms,
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
- Pablo Neruda, Sonnet 17
You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. - Dr. Seuss

I am Esau. Figuratively at least, let's leave it at that. I have a BA in Psychology, I'm an ordained minister in the Universal Life Church (kind of a joke, but I like it), and I write to keep from bottling things up. I would be surprised if I was the only one who did. I love helping, but I don't seek the problems of others. I may be able to tell somethings wrong, but they have to ask for help. I refuse to intrude. Well miscreants, keep your heads up and the pens down. Forward march.
