"...'Nothing Else Matters'..."
  by ...Da Fort...


A Dedication to the Spanish Butterfly that touched more than my lips

‘Listen to the song first then you’ll understand what I’m trying to convey
The song explains it way better than I can ‘

(Play The Audio First)


(Play The Poem Second)


{This is raw stripped down and spontaneous so bear with me.. its simply the realism of what I’m experiencing and what I’m trying at this very moment to relay what SHE; this Spanish Butterfly as awaken in me, so try to understand my stream of consciousness}

Love and life run this close literal parallel you don’t realize its importance
We breathe it’s a routine we take for granted our hearts throb and beat
But when the realization of living finally encompasses your entire thought
Life becomes instantly treasured protected persevered with all of your might
Your passion your power your compassion your conviction
Then ‘things’ that clutter your life seem to quickly lose any type of meaning
Materialistic objects, money, work, career all categorized as mundane

Worthless

You inquire where does life parallel in love

{Here’s where my theory becomes complex in my opinion}

See the love of life and here’s deeper ideology the love of being in love
Or even being in love’s possession or possessed by an affectionate ones love
Once you’ve realized or acknowledged that feeling of being in ‘love’
You love life just as intense as you love the love you expressed or have been given
So if you value life and ‘Nothing Else Matters’ because you realize life’s worth
Therefore you love life because you love, ‘love’
And being in ‘love’ has helped you embrace both

Honesty and I mean in all DAMN honesty

I can’t be hypocritical I thought success you know ‘the typical advancements’
They were convincing that these ‘things’ would bring me happiness in life
Which in a way it’s true to an extent but I shutdown the ‘feeling’
You know that’ feeling’ that emotional sensing of life or of love
The awareness the appreciation of even experiencing love through life

See you have to understand the interdependence of those two forces
These entities these intangible gifts or whatever you refer to life and love as
But once the dormant sensation returns to enhance your life
What you thought or was deceived into believing was fulfillment

Is not

So in retrospect
When I stood there in the airport and before she boarded her flight to leave

She kissed me so passionately so freely so truly so soulfully

So full of life and admiration all unexpectedly
That kiss triggered an epiphany
Consumed my mind my body my soul instantaneously
From that point till this very second

‘Nothing Else Matters’

But reliving those moments of loving life to love her as she loves me

(((Life is reason love is purpose)))


…Muchas Gracias Mi Amor My Butterfly…

Well expressed, this raw feeling of love and the cause and effect of the emotion. I only hope she 'knows' this is your truth! Well done & more love to come!
