post valentines

Yesterday was the commercial holiday of love.  I dressed up but showed no one by outfit, its hard to feel beautiful when you’re eyes are full of tears.  But I wasn’t crying over lost love, or being lonely.  My tears were over a friend, we may not know each other very well since we only started hanging out a little less than a month.  It was the first Leo i couldn’t see shine before.   This sun confused me, i couldn’t find the warmth in him that i found in every other one i’ve encountered.  

When i look into his eyes i see a lot of pain, and hurt.  Not the same i know so well.  Its in my blood to take care of others, most of the time over myself.  So seeing this hurt lion, i tried to mend the wound that i saw.  But now i know what it is to be in the shoes of all the men i loved before.  They saw me sad, in tears and with that tried their hardest to fix a cut so deep most doctors keep at an arms length.  Instead they received more pain, and from that i dwelled deeper.  

The vortex of sadness.  Of fear and dispare.  I could use a million different names for it, but well all know what I speak of.  

I see my friend in there, and when i hold his hand i try and move what love stored inside me through a simple touch into him.  I hope he knows I care.  I hope he knows we care, and theres a million people out there that dont even know him that do… They’ve seen his art work, and heard him speak.
