Tangled thoughts
Flooded eyes and a runny nose
I have so much to say but no words are close ...
Waffles Mar 2019
This love is explainable
because i can't explain it
Believe me, i've tried.
My inability to explain how incredibly wonderful this love is must mean "I have found it" [A feeling materialized into word by Archimedes.]

Do not fool youself into thinking that
at this moment
You have a clear understanding of Love
Nor that you need to.

The flavors of love are too complex to digest
Until tasted

Do not fool yourself into thinking that
At this moment
The flavors of Love experienced is all that there is.
There is so much more.

The best flavors taste delicious, are nutritious, are dependable

Enjoy the buffet
Don't get sick.

I'm falling
and I trust to catch myself at the bottom
If you don't
Love poems are easy

In all my poem reading,
I haven't been able to relate to a love poem.

Until tonight,
I always thought the writers were exaggerating.

Yet, this feeling of connection is remarkable.
I suppose I would need a strange poem to describe it,
too.
I titled it 'Not a Love Poem" just in case I can't relate to it tomorrow

I enjoy something until i realize I can lose it;
A moment
A loved one
Life

The present is continually lost
yet somehow
progresses 
Regret and loss only live here when we chose.

i hate this
this feeling
the intensity of discovery, confusion, love
the depth of this world

i know that there are times
that i love this
this feeling
the intensity of discovery, confusion, love
the depth of this world

i need somebody 
that fiercely hugs my in- and out-sides
one who helps me
stabilize this being of mine that becomes so intense
with physical, mental, and emotional energy
that she NEEDS reassurance she is not
crazy or alone.
and that she is always loved.

i know it's hard to tell
but i'm not crazy by choice
i would have stopped by now
if i had that control

I'm desperate for somebody who takes control
and gives me peace.

it was almost you.

I guess I'll keep wandering around
asking friends and sometimes strangers "can I help you?" with my lips
and "can you help me?" with my heart.
