A collection of my random thoughts, usually about my lover. Might not be the best, but it is genuine.
Lambing : /lamˈbiŋ/, [lɐmˈbiŋ]
can refer to showing affection , interest, love, liking, inclination, consideration to people, animals, and other similar things. An example of a sentence that interprets this spirit is "Be gentle with your lover a little bit."
Lambing is equivalent to the words kalinga , kumalenga, umalidog, related to showing and taking care (in the sense of "being careful", similar to the phrase "Take care, my love."), because they are showing affection to their loved ones. It is also related to other words related to physical actions (using the body or part of the body) such as haplos, hagod, himas, lamyos, halik, yakap, and yapos.
"There's a blaze of light in every word, it doesn't matter which you heard: the holy or the broken, 'Hallelujah.'"- Leonard Cohen
The poems in this series center on two characters: I, the speaker, and You, the speaker's subject. I is not a specific gender or orientation. I is meant to mold to the reader's idea of who they would be. We follow I in not only a love story, one where love blossoms and lingers until its destruction, but a tale of self-discovery, where, after a long and arduous quest for it, I finally finds happiness.

WARNING: Mentions of domestic violence, rape. There's some hefty and kind of kinky sexual content in this, so be cautious if that makes you uncomfortable (9, 11, 12 especially). Infidelity and abuse are pertinent themes, and religious imagery is woven in (mostly pagan, Christian). Please remember your own limits as you read. Thanks!
