Love poems I have
stacks of utter nonsense
a plethora of piles
of the ridiculous and illogical
True madness infected
with rhythm and rhyme
I’ve wandered through
stories of eternity
found in simple kisses
I’ve watched tragedies unfold
in the grains of sand
at forevers end
I’ve witnessed heaven bloom
here on earth in every step
I’ve seen love take
and I’ve seen that heaven crumble
and have been left with
the heavy weight
and the emptiness
of nothing at all
and I have wished foolish wishes
and I have sat with death
and asked…
I have never been particularly
found of heartache
nor have I ever learned
to handle it well
Is there every a better time
to be melodramatic than during
the dizzying heights
or desperate lows of love
and yet I am still here
by luck or miracle
i do not know if
there is a difference
between the two
I am grateful though
to have lived
through loves
short days of eternity
and survived the worsts
of its endless nights
I am grateful to have
experienced love
in every aspect
it has shown me
every shy school boy crush
every devastating broken heart
every first kiss
every unexpected goodbye
and I have been here long enough
and I have loved
and been loved enough
to know that sometimes
even though some loves
don’t last forever
somehow
in someway
they do
and isn’t that enough
for me to know
that by some miracle
In this life
I can truly say
I have been lucky in love
