Heartness
Heartness my favorite word.
It cannot be defaced by any other meaning,
Its intent is focused and infinite.
Unlike Love who's integrity is lost when
You love me, then love your car, or the food in your mouth.
Your message is weakened by sensory desire,
And confused by temporary satisfaction.
What do you think love is?
What has it become?
From the breath of great angels
Flows Heartness in volume.
Untainted by the morose
Never hardened by separateness.
And igniting reflection
Of our divine exquisite beauty.
At the core of each one of us
The nectar that sates our longing
As a fuel for reunion
With our precious Selves
Is the state of Heartness.

Stillness at sunset. No peace in my heart Stark reminders of what I miss. Space of warmth and causeless joy. Fire of angels, a playful kiss. I see you when I close my eyes. And feel your breath... - A Waltz With The Gods
I danced in the fire And merged into ecstasy. I found my cosmic lover And we morphed into worlds. Flying as ether, A flame from space to space. She died and found herself. And we danced... - Crown of Thorns
Crown of thorns upon my head Cutting thoughts, a mire of dread Blood dripping, shards of glass Endures the one who wears a mask The heart enjoys no filter Venom leaks, toxins burn Gazing inward Bruised, tired,...

I agree - true true love is very rare and it's a treasure when found.
I will strive to avoid using the word "love" for anything but love. Love is too rare and fleeting. True, true love is...so rare.
Beautiful, my friend. Thanks for writing this. Take care!
....well you really know how to get to the inside to the heart of the matter - and so very poetically speaking too!!!!

You had my mind going around in circles, but I didn't check the word till I had read you poem (but I have now).
Oh Wow! What a lovely way to start a morning.
This is one of the most refreshing hubs I have read.
I want to sit at your feet and listen to more like that.
Awesome and voted up, my friend.
This is unique: It is the theme of something that I wrote, but now, I would not hold it up to yours, as yours says it all.
Enjoyed reading your poem "Heartness." These words touched me; beautiful touch you added with the the feathers at the end of the poem.
