Prelude: the soulmate

i’m your cure,  
medicine you need,
 
a spice of love,  
i am that seed,  
 
i’ll love you pure,  
deep to the core,  
 
massage your heart,  
kiss where it’s sore,  
 
relax your thoughts,  
and cry no more,  
 
in an oceans

of tears,  
 
i am your shore.

Faded Love

I loved you through it all,
The highs, the lows and
Everything in between but
Even as every single wall
Came down with your hand
In mine perfectly it was what
Tore our love into tiny pieces.
Some love is right there like
A shiny new toy and reaches
The stars but ours is on strike
And sits on an abandoned
Shelf, all alone and collecting
Dust along with the flattened
Sense of hope. It is reflecting
On you, not me as I always
Loved you, but you loved me
Far too late when yesterdays
Fade away into weeks. You see
Me for who I really am months
Too late. By then I have already
Moved to someone who confronts
Everything head on with a steady
Presence instead of waiting in
The shadows and for him to love
Me better than you could on even
Ground. So where did the pieces of
Love go when we both fled the scene?
We walked away with hands finally clean.

Sonnet 1

Thankful my soul for the tears you pick up
Take my burdens with talks of tomorrow
Shining's a sea overflowing with love
Wash me away, the tide takes my sorrows
 
Wherever you point a way is painted
Guess I'm the fool who can only follow
My heart is full though my mind has fainted
A lost sheep because my head is hollow
 
I am no puppet, no man pulls my strings
You numbed my brain but it can recover
This modern girl with confusing feelings
Is more than her heart more than a lover
 
My dearest, my muse, do not leave my days
Let my head stay empty, now and always

What is love

Who hasn’t tried to define love
With a poem
A song
A movie
A play
Can you really do it?
Define love
With
Mere
Words?
Pictures?
Acting?
Is Love happiness?
Is Love sadness?
Is Love hell?
Is Love paradise?
Is Love pain?
Is Love laugh?
Love is
And it always will just
Be
Nothing more
Nothing less
Than butterflies in your stomach
That finally found a home
