What a
cruel joke --
‘Cause, whoever
said,
”One was
responsible
For another’s
joy,
dreams,
wishes and hopes,”
mistakenly
mis-spoke.
I am
responsible
for how I
feel.
You are
responsible
for how
you feel.
This is
truth,
for real.
Success,
Together as
a couple
depends on
simple,
Selfish Intent
Yes, I
felt populations flinch.
But truths,
newly published
are rarely
popularly cast
though eventually
accepted
and lived
in mass
I am
responsible
for how I
feel.
You are
responsible
for how
you feel.
A spiritual
maturity
gaining appeal.
Imagine
the pressure,
stress,
virtual duress
placed on
others
to make
you, me, we
Happy…
So,
unfair and impossible
a task,
one that
perpetuates
relationships
ranking equal
to,
working Monday
mornings;
the ‘joy’
of a ‘beloved’ 9-5;
and living
only
for the
weekend,
which comes
too soon
and departs
even faster
Relationship—
destined
disaster…
A better,
more co-creative,
initiation
might be
“Hey, let’s
get together,
and see…”
I’ll
continue to be
Responsible
for how I feel.
You’ll stay
responsible
for how
you feel.
Just to keep it real --
We’ll rendezvous
aligned,
in-tune
first with our
individual
selves
then
join, intertwined
in the
bliss of each other.
How does
it get
Any better
than this?

In this
conscious state
we spiritually
relate
with a
continuously
clean slate;
Live in
the moment
above
explanation
and debate
I am responsible for
how I
feel,
You
responsible for
how you
feel,
Then
together,
Caring, Sharing,
and
in our
individual ways,
live
combined joys,
contrasts,
adjustments
and successes
that make
for
a lasting
union
of freedom.
for how I
feel.
You are
responsible
for how
you feel.
Though seemingly
surreal --
Here, in
print, is a simple,
Universal
Key
for Happy!
