i ♥ faces

i ♥ faces. i ♥ this face.

New Song (rough draft)

When I sail the mighty dream ship,
I have one harbor in sight.
Little often do I find you there.
Many days, many nights.

I've grown patient with these waters.
I let the current take my drift.
But ungrateful seas have tossed me about,
and turned this gap into a rift.

So I ignore the gale before me,
and I push the ship with stead.
Rendering the storm a tired stalemate.
Welcoming the shore ahead.

Strolling long the lonesome beach line,
searching crevices and caves.
I make a fool when I hear your laugh
in the sound of crashing waves.

Making sense of joy

Up and down the fraying rope
the dreamer gapes at frosts of hope.
Like frozen liquid memory,
he cannot coax his eyes to see.

Pulling blind, he zeros in...
by feel, by thought, by scented wind.
But as the aim is just before,
he cannot grasp it anymore.

Hands let go, he falls apart,
(though happiness is in his heart).
And the icy climb to understanding
leaves him at Confusion Landing.

6 years

It's been six years since Josh and I snuck away and got married at one of our most favorite spots on this earth. I couldn't be happier to have made that choice. I love you so much it hurts babe.

Here's a couple of shots from Bear Lake, on our anniversary. It was absolutely beautiful and serene. Our other favorite spot....

Sucking The Scent Off

Yep... That's what I did.

3 1/2 Min. Pure Joy.

All gone...

i ♥ faces

Here is our entry for the week in the I ♥ faces contest. I love the drool in the original...love those cheeks...love that hair...love that boy.

"Things are falling down on me....heavy things I could not see. When I finally came around, something small would pin me down. When I tried, to step aside....I moved to where they'd hoped I'd be."
