Pg 8 - A TIME

    I GUESS THAT MAYBE

                    THERE IS A TIME...                        

A SEASON

    AND MAYBE 

    IT JUST COMES...

WITHOUT RHYME NOR REASON

We don't ever seem to know...
and aren't privy to that kind of information.

One minute there you are,
alone and seemingly perhaps
destined to be so and then suddenly
YOU AREN'T 
anymore.

You wonder how that happened,
maybe even when, or how
and there are no answers...
only, there he is... 

MISTER RIGHT.
AND FINALLY FOR ONCE,
NOT MISTER RIGHT NOW.


THIS FOREVER THING IS
SO TANGIBLE YOU CAN TOUCH IT 
AND TASTE IT AND YOU WANT IT...

BAAAAAAAAAAD!

You find your 

WHOLE WORLD 

turned upside down and...

I KNOW THE FEELING,

TRUST ME...BECAUSE

it just happened to me.

LIFE...

PICKED ME UP, 

FLUNG ME UP

INTO MID-AIR

AND

caught me on the way down 

and 

JUST 

in the nick of time.

CRIME?

Yep. Bodily mayhem

gone unpunished. 

BUT,

that's okay.

I know this may seem far-fetched,

perhaps a bit fantastic,

and trust me...did to me too,

UNTIL NOW...

when I KNOW

how truly magical love can be.

ALL I CAN DO NOW IS GO...

WHEEEEEEEEEE.

Like a BLITHERING IDIOT.

YUP! DAS ME ALL RIGHT.

LOL!

But, wow. Seriously?

Oh yes. Serious as a

HEART

ATTACK

and love can resemble one 

cause it is HIS heart that starts it

and YOURS is the one that gets

clobbered, tied to the proverbial

railroad tracks, and RUNNED OVAH.

WHAT A RUSH! LOL

TRAIN WHISTLE GOING FULL BLAST

AND ALL THAT, WHILE YOU GO...

WAIIIIIIIIIIIT 

A 

G**D****** 

MINUTE HEAH.

Dat train didn't even ask your permission, 

now did it. NOPE.

Just came barreling on in 

and runned you down.

WELL, SHIT!

Love IS funny like that 
and often at the time
it don't seem all that funny,

BUT THEN...
all of a sudden you go

WHOOOOOOOOOOA

WHOOOOOOOOOA
HAWSIE

  DAMN...
SHIT
FUCK
WHOO HOO

HOLY MOFO...

DUUUUUUUDE...
FUCK!

where the 
HELL YOU COME FROM?
AND BY THE WAY?
WHAT THE FUCK 
TOOK YOU SO LONG?

AH HATH BEEN WAITY HEAH
FOAH YO' SLOW ASS...

And it is a feeling of being KICKED 
in the solar plexus. Breath knocked out 
of you, and then the hair on the back 
of your neck starts to quiver. 
Your tummy feels all tied in knots...
and your knees turn to mush,
and you kinda forget all about 
being all pissy
cause of that small train-wreck thingy.

OH HELL, right about now
that damn train can run 
OVAH 
your sorry self...
7 days a week,
with you going

C'MONNNNNNNNNNNNN 
TRAINNNNNN

Yep.

LOVE is like that
LIFE is like that
THANK GOD.

ONE MINUTE you are reveling in 

single-hood and the next?

"HOW IN THE FUCK DID I EVER GET ALONG WITHOUT THIS DUDE? HOW?

OHHHH MYYYY GOD...I MEAN!

BEATS ME. 

BEATS ME ALL TO SHIT."

You are serious. 

YOU DO NOT KNOW how 

you could 

EVER SURVIVE 

without him...

and ALL you know is

you 

NEVER EVER
want to know what it is like 

to lose him.

For you KNOW...

THAT would be the END 

of YOU too.

HE

IS YOUR WHOLE WORLD NOW 

AND YOU ARE SUDDENLY
REAL REAL KEWL WITH THAT!

and in time, 

the what I call the 

heejeebie rushies settle down,

and so do you and he... 

and then the day-to-day 

takes over and

you just begin to walk 

hand-in-hand through life...

KNOWING THAT FOR YOU 

that is the way it was 

ALWAYS

MEANT TO BE.

So, maybe he AIN'T 

what you ever thought you wanted 

or who. Maybe he ain't Brad Pitt.

Ol' Brad wasn't always all that much either

and one day won't be again.

(BESIDES, I hear he is taken. LOL).

BUT THIS DUDE? 

HE IS ALL 

you 

WILL...

EVER...

WANT 

from now on.

AND YOU ARE VERY VERY VERY

KEWL WITH THAT.

Your two hearts have decided for you, 

and there you go.

This is IT! and you know it.

You merely think of him and you 

tingle. You hear his voice and you feel

that little surge. That chill running up

your back. 

He walks into the room and

the WHOLE FUCKING WORLD

LIGHTS UP.

SO what more do you need, goofy? HUH?

If he makes you feel that good, what's wrong with that huh?

Someone mentions his name or you think they do or you imagine they do or you HEAR HIS NAME everywhere you look and..

FUCK...

You suddenly know 

just how GONE you are.

So he holds your hand when you walk down the street.

BUT WHO GIVES A FUCK

what anyone else thinks?

They ain't paying your bills

and besides. 

This is YOUR life

not theirs.

Hey. You just got to go with the dude

who makes your heart sing.

TRUST ME!

You will never regret it.

Besides, you can always 

smother him

in his sleep. 

Put a quarter under his pillow 

and blame it on the tooth fairy.

OK. What can I say except.

FOR GOD'S SAKE

GO FOR IT!

THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST CHANCE

FOR THIS KIND OF LOVE...

THE KIND THAT MAKES YOU 

CRAZY ONE MINUTE

AND SO FUCKING GRATEFUL
THE NEXT.

Yeh.

Go for it.

LOVE IS THE BEST THING EVER...

since the invention of the 

shower radio/hair curler.

AHH LOVE.

Kinda makes you wanna don't it.
