"Who are you to judge the life I live? I know I'm not perfect - and I don't live to be. But before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean." ~ Bob Marley

I never knew...



I never knew adoration...until I knew you.
I never knew kindness...until I knew you.
I never knew contentment...until I knew you.
I never knew faith or trust...until I knew you.
I never knew real physical intimacy...until I knew you.
I never knew emotional satisfaction,
familiarity,
friendship,
true happiness,
poetry,
peace,
intellectual stimulation,
sincerity,
nearness,
closeness,
unbroken bonds,
dedication,
loyalty,
oneness,
completion,
generousity,
mutual dedication,
devotion...
I never knew taste,
touch,
smell,
sight,
sound...
until I knew you.
I never knew anything before you...
now I know love because of you.

I know all too well the source of something like this....i was that object of affection....Love isnt butterflies or some shit..its when you are alone in a crowd of people if they arent there...shits deep

You are sooooo right @ Ron, couldn't have said it better myself! I was at a concert last week @ the Electric Factory...surrounded by friends, hundreds of people, Common was performing...and I have never felt so alone.
