13 DAYS to 40 — FROM HORMONES TO BLOOD

Why do I not taste the juice in love poems and songs anymore? Why do romantic movies feel superficial and frivolous? Where has that tingling feeling gone, that was so prevalent in my younger years at the very thought of love and being together?

Don't get me wrong - I still feel love, immense love for the girl that has travelled more than half my life with me, the woman that has given birth to my children, my life's blessing that continues to be my biggest reason to feel life is worth working through. It is just that the intensity feels more internalised than verbal or material adornments can do justice to.
