Life is a bed you never want to leave

Our bodies intertwine

Weaving ourselves together

A complete embrace

Soft kisses

Loving words

Laughter

A smile on your lips

A dream to stay like this

Suspended in perfect comfort

Neither of us willing to break

Absorbed in our own world

A loving bond forged stronger

This is what life is

Spain

Rosemary infused air settling over shoulders, through pores, until at last, sun burns the Mediterranean to molten rose and honey. Footsteps pinging off granite, sliding into orifices without introduction or pause. Finally, before collapsing into the scent of Valencia oranges, your finger lassos my hair and pulls me in. This is what life is.

Italia

The Italian countryside.

Exquisite red wine in my wine glass.

Under a shaded balcony off of this old two-story house.

I have ridden my bike from where I live to here.

My lover sits on the balcony with me.

I delicately hold her hand within mine.

"Ti amo tanto," she says to me, with her brown eyes gazing into mine.

We listen to the wonderful pieces of Frank Sinatra.

The Sun begins to set in the distance.

And this is what life is.

Into the night

The slight imperfections of the glass panes send the eager orange light bouncing in every direction. Even with the insulation of the old home's embrace, the rays dance across my face and warm every inch.

Reality warps in and out as the sun descends below the horizontal plane; only his shoulder against my head, his hand in mine, and the occasional remark on the beauty of this moment-the remarkable nature of the absolute perfection in this alignment-remind me of our physical presence.

The skies are setting the world on fire just for us, and we quietly admire the show. The silence sings more truth than any song has. Lifetimes pass us by until finally the darkness settles.

At first, there is hesitation, uncertainty. And then, with open hands and open hearts, a new adventure, another realm to experience. This is what life is.

Take me away

Laughing and joking with my friends

The past horrors long forgotten

for the moment

Genuine smiles and inside jokes

Talking like we didn't have a care in the world

Brush of his hand that sets my thoughts at ease

So you do care for me

The voices have stopped

Screaming silenced

Calmed breath

This is what life is all about

Finding the things that make you happy in your darkest times

This is what life is

What a life...

That nostalgic feeling

When I play Pokémon ORAS.

The soothing sound

Of Sophia my little ukulele.

Eat everything you want,

Drink everything you want.

Reading

Writing

More and more

Life is what you make it,

Enjoy it while it last.

It's not how you started,

It's how you finish it.

Scream your heart out saying...

This is what life is!

Every day is an obstacle but we always shall maintain

Every day we walk at some point but we must stay in our lane

Every day is more like a open road we can freely cross

Every day we shall be face to face and not be loss.

This is the way life is!
