For a Poet's Love
For the love of a Madman,
who was made to be lifted up by me;
It is not worth hindering - it will not pass.
My fate has become entwined with his.
And there is one life, and one death awaits us.
He is loyal, he calls me his favorite.
I try to reject hot words as they beguile.
Before I was not so vulnerable.
After the refusal, a new flower bloomed.
Now what? Am I crying? Or is it specks of dust.
Caught with the wind in the pool of blue eyes?
And on the cheeks tear after tear
Slide to the feet, sparkling like diamonds.
With a graceful handle, as if made of porcelain,
Brush the sadness from a beautiful face.
A smile for enchanting words.
And again a mask, the mask of a fugitive.
You run away from an easy and happy life.
Not forgetting that, in principle, there is only pain.
All around is darkness and debauchery
Every day I tell myself: "Be careful!".
But this message falls on deaf ears.
And he appeared, like a ray of light,
And he illuminated everything around him.
Do not reject the poet in love,
And again I must not make this fatal mistake.

What could be more confusing? Perhaps my expression of such things is the answer. :p I am so happy you could feel the emotion and found it beautiful Ron. And I really appreciate your wonderful sentiment so much. Thank you for the love and light! I really need it. xoxo 💖

One can't tempt the fate of a poet in love, reminding one they are never alone in the dark or confusion..your mind is a mysterious one, in a good way, beautiful poem k xx
2nd Dec 2021 11:37pm
Oh my dear Tim, of course I can tempt the fate of a Poet in love. ;) But I love that we can share in the darkness and confusion, and the beauty and light too. My mind is a very strange place, it can be incredibly exciting but also so scary in there. lol Just be careful which door you choose. xoxo 💖
2nd Dec 2021 11:42pm
It isn't confusion to be cautious, some of the most dangerous animals in nature has the sweetest sounds. There are several big cats that have seductive purrs and the king cobra barks like a dog. But we are charmed by that which seems out of reach, that matador that really knows how to dance about the arena of love. That someone that says the right thing at the right time knowing your buttons and keys. Mmmmmm, tantalizing, should we dare say daring even. Tight work Little One
3rd Dec 2021 00:03am
I am sure you make some of the sweetest sounds I_IS_ME, perhaps I need to be very careful with you. ;) Good thing I like the darkness, right? Oh my god, a purring cat and I am toast; the bigger the better. lol Good thing animals love me. It's amazing how much danger can create some of the most beautiful dances and we are all gladiator's in the arena of life. Oh yes, keys and buttons excite me so much! And I do love daring... oh the excitement of forbidden things. Tight things come in small packages. ;) xoxo 💖

When lovers are on the verge of something, it's often not readily available for both to see at the same time. There's a basketball expression that states you have to let the game come to you. It's the same in relationships. All the pushing away lends itself to more chaos, sometimes you have to just let each other in and see how that plays. I believe in love, vulnerability and honesty. It's all here so wonderfully expressed. Layers peeled back, open smiles, tears of admission that someone loves you adoringly...

It can truly be spectacular when lovers are on the verge of something. Love is such a complicated thing, especially new love - but when you want to learn everything about someone so often that availability comes with time. Oh, the games we play... some are beautiful, some are exciting, some are sexy, and some are painful. Sometimes that chaos can be so dangerous but it's also very exciting; I suppose that's why we always seem to seek it out sometimes. It's definitely not always easy to let someone in but vulnerability and honesty are vital in love. It's make me happy that you were able to see so much of what I was trying to express. There are so many layers to my chaos. I am really glad you could feel me 'mightily'. Love the BIG LIKE and RL MAGIC. xoxo 💖

We all tempted by love. Keep on writing. You find love when you least expected it.
3rd Dec 2021 00:53am
Ah the temptation of love gives us something to live for doesn't it Francisco. And that does seem to be the universal rule; you find love when and where you least expect it. And we all know that Poet(ess)'s love very deeply don't we. ;) xoxo 💖

words are powerful
your words have a gift about them.
how they always are just right as they express.
a poet, a poetess and words...in total sum, might just total poetry.
thank you for sharing

Your words are so powerful that I find myself at a loss to properly respond. I am so happy you could share in my chaos with me. That you feel my words have a gift about them and are always just right as they express that chaos that runs through my mind really touches my heart. :) I adore the total sum of your words. xoxo 💖

I could feel the excitement of new love and confusion in this poem.
The hesitation pause button pushed off and on.
Just always remember he's the lucky one:)
Who ever that may be.
He should only make your life better - not worse.
I had a coworker of mine who started dating a guy she had a crush on
for a while - she was so excited. New love right.
Well it turned south after a few weeks.
She told me and I quote-
"I can struggle on my own without the extra headache.
If he's not going to be there for me
when I need him what's the point"
Mixed signals are a sign amiga:)
For any poet or Poetess:)

This one is a bit complicated. :) A lot of it is about being a muse for someone. That there is a type of love in this relationship that can inspire great poetry. And an appreciation for that craziness that all Poet's seem to have. ;) There is definitely excitement of something new and the ability to help create something from that bond. Still such a relationship can be dangerous... You do have to make sure in any relationship it is making your life better and not worse. And you have to consider other things in your life. This is about a different type of love and appreciation. I am full of chaos and confusion. :) xoxo 💖

Dear K,
“ My fate has become entwined with his.” and there it was for me. I don’t know how it happened or why I let it happen but there it is. Regrets… many. I’m sure to have missed your intended meaning, however, I couldn’t move past this phrase for my own personal thought process. I guess I accept this as my own chaotic mind. It’s frustrating, sometimes, to be so involved with someone and forget who you are, or once were. I really like this piece for its passion.
“ And he appeared, like a ray of light,
And he illuminated everything around him” kind of made me think of a deity, great metaphor for the poeting process. Ugh. I’m rambling. Conclusion: great write.
H🌷

I am not sure anyone can ever fully understand my intended meaning, it's complicated. :p But entwined fate is very powerful indeed. There is definitely a lot of passion in this one. Passion that can only come from chaos I suppose. ;) You can get lost in a relationship of words. I am glad you understood the metaphor for the poeting process. You are definitely not rambling. I always love hearing your thoughts Honoria. You are amazing and your thoughts are always so interesting and intuitive. xoxo 💖

I've seen relationships bloom out of the most unusual circumstances. Sometimes people avoid each other for years and then finally connect and then say, "why did we wait so long. ?"
Almost always the answer is some kind of fear. I say if that person makes life better you take the chance. There's always a way to negotiate between the markers and marks. I've read some of your poems, I think you have a fan in the making .....

Some of the most beautiful relationships can come from unusual circumstances. When you find that connection it can be quite unique. Fear so often controls us, prevents us from taking chances and so we can miss out on things. If that person enriches your life and makes it better then perhaps you should take the chance. Those negotiations can get complicated though. Sometimes people desire different things. I am so happy if I can earn you as a fan of my crazy writing. :) xoxo 💖

Love isn't as complicated as you think.
I'll teach you
Are you open ??

A very beautiful and thoughtful writing about the signs of the love and support that two people share together for a poet's love is like no other as it comes from the truth of the mind and heart and spiritual soul 🙏👊👊👊
4th Dec 2021 3:34pm
Oh yes! a Poet's love is as special as the expression of that love in words. The mind, heart, and spiritual soul say so much and being able to translate that to words is a gift to be savored. One that can bring you in from the cold and warm the soul. Thank you so much for your comments Stoney, I am so happy you can feel me. :) xoxo 💖

I love the vulnerability of this. And this is why;
The profile picture you use is obviously an attraction in a purely physical sense. No eyes, no face, just a sexual model. And that will always be the initial judgement about you, based on that. No identity. It isn't bad, but it isn't what you're about exclusively.
Because then you write something like you just posted, and there we have a glimpse of who you are as a person. And this is your identity now. You now stand out from the masses of physical creatures. No posing, no physical allure. Just you as a soul.
And that, my dear, is what you will always offer the world, long after the mirrors frown upon you.
This poem is a great addition, to your writing portfolio. It elevates you more than you realize.

That is a good observation my dear Styxian. No, it's definitely not what I am about exclusively. I have used a variety of other pictures in the past but I do like a degree of anonymity when it comes to sharing pictures on the Internet regardless. I am glad you could get a glimpse into the person I am in this piece. I do put a lot of myself into my writing, heart and soul. And I am really happy you feel this adds something to my writing portfolio. I love that you feel it elevates me. Thank you for the wonderful feedback and comment, it really means a lot to me. xoxo 💖

KX, I am smitten with the depths of your love poetry.
Your poetic prowess opens me to my own personal interpretations.
Your thought-provoking poetry is deep filled passion personified.
My life lesson for you my dear, lol :
Chaos is the catalyst to Harmony when searching for Love
Love is a beautiful mess so I try to embrace the chaos and confusion.
I try live and laugh through the confusion when I find my hopeful person in life.
The day when it all does makes sense amidst the confusion/chaos ,
then that is the day I truly find love.
... says the guy who has a failed marriage, part of a polyamorous trio,
and for the most part has had an all-around bizarre lonely (not to mistaken for alone) lifestyle for most of his life, hahahaha.
Seriously though, to me the worst part of any new relationship is when you awaken another to love, without truly loving them back.
Or you yourself are awakened to love, without being loved back by them ... SUCKS!!!
Damn girl you got my mind all over the map.
That is a testament to your impactful power in poetry.
Thought Provoking & Brilliant Poetry!

Oh Feet, where to start... I want to keep you smitten and love taking you to the depths of love with me. And I always adore hearing your interpretations and thoughts; and of course your awesome puns and analogies. After all much of what I write can cause confusion but I suppose that is thought provoking in it's own right. ;) But it is always passionate. I love hearing life lessons so rest assured I will intently listen. Chaos and love do go hand in hand don't they? I suppose without some chaos things would get boring. Love is indeed a beautiful mess full of chaos and confusion; that is a perfect description. Living and laughing through the confusion is great advice. Pretty sure I bring the chaos and confusion so you might just have to accept
that things may never make sense but it will be a hell of a ride. I don't think I could ever do the polyamorous thing. :p Love is definitely a two way street. Taking your mind all over the place is just part of my chaos and confusion. Whew, your comment has my mind all of over the place. ;) I am always so happy to get your thoughts and feedback, Feet. I appreciate it so much. xoxo 💖

Kristina, I thoroughly enjoyed the reflective and insightful emotional verse. It's like looking into the window and witnessing the stirring of soulful sentiments.
"Now what? Am I crying? Or is it specks of dust.
Caught with the wind in the pool of blue eyes?"
I liked these lines because at times we ourselves don't comprehend it in the moment, but it's so pretty in description it's heart tugging.
Excellent work.

There was a lot to this one so I am really happy you enjoyed it and found it insightful. ;) Looking into my windows you never quite know what confusion and chaos you are going to find. But it is definitely always passionate and soulful.
I love that you liked those lines and interpreted them so well. I wondered if it was yet another example of my expression that would perhaps not be understood or sound strange. :p
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me Wally. xoxo 💖

Often I reread your poems

I don't blame you for being vague
You're so amazingly talented in human perspectives

"do not reject the poet in love" My favorite morsel in the poem. An excellent sentiment. A well written piece with depth and message.
20th Nov 2022 7:09pm
Ah, a poet(ess) in love now that's a complicated subject. But one of intensity and passion. I never thought of myself as a poetess but people tell me I am so I have come around to accept it. There is definitely depth and message to this one. I was surprised how well liked it was considering my often chaotic and perhaps confusing style. :)
