Love

Is a reality,
Thar needs many sacrifices,
Scores of patience,
And the hardest is the ability to forgive,
Especially the one we love the most.

i think i may break

next weeks the last
before the day she's gone
i think i may break
don't know how to go on

she had an extension
a few added weeks
we're almost out of time
i guess every relationship peaks

i won't hear her laugh
can't joke through the pain
can't talk to her daily
to hide from my brain

i think i may break

to the ******* my left
i'll miss you

Strangers

We can be strangers if you like
We can talk about the weather
Our silly plans for the weekend
Or how life has been kind to us
Trust me, I'm a terrific actor
You'll hardly be able to tell

We can be strangers if you like
Or at least we can pretend that
It doesn't shred us to pieces...

Have you ever come across friends and lovers that meant the world to you... and then had to act like they were mere acquaintances?
Never mind... hello there, stranger!

i never realized that
they’re pointing at me.

Love Songs Poem 1980

Why don't we steal away

And let me love you tonight

Because you and I've been in love to long

And I'd really love to see you tonight.

So why don't we steal away

(So you can)

Do that to me one more time

(You know )

I'm all out of love

And I can never get enough of a girl like you.

Cause Honey you are my shining star

(In fact you are)

You are The biggest part of me.

And that's how much I feel, feel for you Baby

But most of all I do love you

STILL.

line 1 Robbie Dupree
line 2 Pure Prairie League
line 3 Ambrosia
line 4 England Dan and John ford Coley
line 5 Robbie Dupree
line 6 Captain and Tennille
line 7 Air Supply
line 8 Captain and Tennille
line 9 The Manhattans
line 10-11 Ambrosia
line 12 The Commodores
Ok so this is far from being a good poem but it was just a little experiment I did with a new you tube video.
every line was from a song on the Billboard hot 100 for the year 1980

Immortality

Trees

The trees breathe
in a language
older than time.

I’ve got this massive curry leaves tree in my garden. It’s my unofficial therapist..... hehe
Yep, I share my problems with it—big, small, and downright embarrassing...
But I make sure no one’s watching. I don’t want the neighbors thinking I’ve gone nuts!!
heheheh~~
