THIS TORTURE Why should we tell you our love stories when you spill them together like blood in the dirt? Love is a pearl lost on the ocean floor, or a fire we canβt see, but how does saying that push us through the top of the head into the light above the head? Love is not an iron pot, so this boiling energy wonβt help. Soul, heart, self. Beyond and within those is one saying, How long before Iβm free of this torture!
