Come Love
Let us bare ourselves to each other
Let's become intoxicated by our love
As we lay in close contact
I stare into your eyes
And find a light such as no other.
Let us become entwined at the soul
and shed the weight placed on us by the world
Let us forget our troubles
and instead find our peace
on each others lips
within the hearts of the other.

This love shall only last
for tonight.
But dear I shall make tonight
Last for all eternity.

Why is it that when things seem picture perfect
That it is then when the picture frame shatters?

This poem is originally written by my favorite poet, Charles Bukowski. .

they're not going to let you
sit at a front table
at some cafe in Europe
in the mid-afternoon sun.
if you do, somebody's going to
drive by and
spray your guts with a
submachine gun.

they're not going to let you
feel good
for very long
anywhere.
the forces aren't going to
let you sit around
*******-off and
relaxing.
you've got to go
their way.

the unhappy, the bitter and
the vengeful
need their
fix - which is
you or somebody
anybody
in agony, or
better yet
dead, dropped into some
hole.

as long as there are
humans about
there is never going to be
any peace
for any individual
upon this earth or
anywhere else
they might
escape to.

all you can do
is maybe grab
ten lucky minutes
here
or maybe an hour
there.

something
is working toward you
right now, and
I mean you
and nobody but
you.

They say "shoot for the moon – Even if you miss you’ll be among the stars"

You'd just better hope you break the atmosphere or you’ll come crashing back down amongst the gruesome, fiery wreckage.

I had to talk another person
out of it last night.
When will the world learn
Not to encourage such behavior?

That moment
I’m sure most of you are familiar with it.

That moment
The one you’ve worked so hard for.

That moment
You went above and beyond for.

That moment
You have so desired.

That moment
It’s finally here.

The Moment Is Finally Here!

Oh.

Whoops.

It appears I’m daydreaming again
And while it appeared so close
I’ll still have to wait even longer now for

That Moment

Everything must face the test of time
Will they stand
Or will they fall
The same is true for us as well
Will we hold each other’s hands
Till the end of time
Or will your hand slip from mine?

This is my credo
this is my dogma
this is my statement of belief
you can call this whatever you like
because the title is unimportant
this is my uncompromising doctrine
of which I believe in
to the utmost degree.
Everyone is important
Despite what they may think of themselves
Every single person has a life that matters
No matter how they see their life
I will be the person who is left
When everyone else has left
And you believe yourself to be alone
I will be the one who believes in you
When even you do not believe in yourself
I will be the one to remind you of your beauty
When you forget the beauty you possess
I will be the one who will listen for eternity
When you feel like you are worthless
I will see value and worth within you
Even when you believe yourself to be worth nothing
I will be the one to worry over you
While you worry over everyone else
Come hell or high water
Regardless of the burden it shall place upon my shoulders
I will undertake the task
Of lessening the pain and suffering of others
For I can bear much suffering
And my heart is warmed by the sight
Of suffering and pain being lifted from someone’s shoulders
I will do all that is within my power
Put forth all the effort I can
With mind, body and soul
I step forth into this world
To deny suffering a place here
And to lessen the pain
Felt by any and all
So bring me all the worst
Of your broken
Of your bruised
Of your supposedly insane
Dreams feelings and memories
Bare your soul to me
And I shall reply in kind
Welcoming you in to the depth of my being
And encompassing you within the warmth that I possess
I know that I may not save all
But that will NOT STOP me from trying
To save everyone
Because if I can save even one person
Then any sacrifice is worth the chance

You’re the one who was scared that I would leave,
So why do I feel I’ve been left standing here
Like a jilted bride at her wedding
Disillusioned at the altar

Upon closer examination
one will eventually realize
that falling in love
does not hurt,
for there will be another
waiting there to catch you.

It's when that person turns their back
to you
and suddenly
you're no longer falling in love
but you've reached that point
that point where it really hurts
the sudden stop
when instead of falling in love
You've fallen just as far as you can go
and You've hit rock bottom
and upon those rocks
our hearts are shattered.

We as writers have the ability to do many things.
We know how to change the tenses of many different words,
Such as love becoming had loved
And together becomes we were together.
We have the knowledge to change things
From the affirmative to the negative,
Such as we’re in love
To she isn’t in love
Or she is always by my side
To I rarely see her anymore.
We can combine the two
To change something that is happening
To something that might have never even happened,
Such as how will always be in love
Changes to were we ever in love?
And how I love you
Could be flipped to ask
Didn’t you ever love me?
