between your heart and mine
Written by Candy Tothill on February 9, 2008 – 4:36 am -There’s an understanding between our hearts, the poet’s heart and mine. It’s the kind of understanding for which you cannot plan; and when it comes, it keeps you in a continual state of wonder at the beauty of it all. It has made a believer out of me.
Not too long ago, my tagline was ‘natural-born romantic, man-made cynic’.
What amazes me most is that I could never have anticipated the depth of the shift in my perspective. After all the years of struggling for independence and freedom, here I am building my world around someone… not because I must, or because it is expected, but because my world is more beautiful this way.
Loving him makes me real.

I am humbled and honored by what you are saying, and I understand.
I had somewhat lost my way, playing the golem, a soulless creature, a construct, as I dragged my Ouranian soul forward, barely, keeping myself breathing…
There’s a line in the movie “The Wonder Boys” about the writer’s heart beating out of habit rather than any real purpose.
That was me.
Then you came along. I owe you my gratitude and my life.
I love you.
