Love Letter No 6- Messy Love


The idea is to write a brief love letter ... This weeks theme – Messy Love

Write a love letter and share it...

Okay here's my "Messy Love" letter.

----------------------
Dear C,
Our love is a beautiful fix. It does fix much. All the important things in life are taken care of.
But the details are messy, oh so messy. And I love the mess we are in.

This love has taken over places in my mind that surprise me.

I got to the grocery store and could only remember 3 items: flowers, a bottle of wine, and cheese. The dentist called yesterday and told me I needed to reschedule an appointment. I almost ran out of gas twice this week. I got lost on a back road and could not remember where I was going. I can't find an ink pen at my desk. My coffee cup was in the conference room all week where I wandered off from it.

My cell minutes are running over, I can't stand to be away from you. And a simple text becomes a declaration of love, they come at the most amazing times. I am completely blown away. Our communication touches me so profoundly.

It's a mess, my life is upside down, I want to turn it back over, I know you will be there because we are in this mess together.
Hanging on, sorting this out, how powerful to be swallowed up in love. Thrashing and crying out, this love has shook up the pieces of my life. And as they flow back together we are more thoroughly mixed than could have ever been before.

Don't think you must help me out, come on into this mess with me. Love will guide us to our destination.

I love you
L
