In the title of your poem,
Use Poem, Poet, or Poetry,
Don't be quick to scorn;
I can almost guarantee
A Hit,
A Trendy.
Then we may ask,
Has this poet
Written poetry?
Then we may answer,
*Well, there's mention
Of the trinity,
Run it up the pole,
Let's see.

I just want to be...

The promise that you keep
The moment that you need
Your thought that's gone to seed

I just want to be...

What it is that you most crave
The one decision that you make
The perfect ending to your day

I just want to be...

Where your vast ocean meets the land
The treasure held in your hand
The moment you come to understand

I just want to be...

The one name that you drop
There when you pull out all the stops
All it is that you have got

I just want to be...

The answer when you ask
The love that you unmask
But most of all,
I just want to be your yes*...

Leaning against a wall
Give a feeling of
The wall leaning away
Giving in to the pressure
Of bearing the weight
For far too long
For everything has
A threshold point
Beyond which
All support seems to give way

Oh, I could search
forever search this starry universe
through worlds without end.
Oh, I could search forever
till the ending of all days
and never find a love so warm and true.
Oh, so perfect in line and form.
Oh, how I find my life in you
in your heart and soul.
the perfect crown of creation.
Oh, how my love for you knows no end
and I am forever lost in you.
My every thought from my waking
before the early morning dawn
till I lay my weary head on my pillow
is of you!
Oh, how soul suffers a longing
for your soft arms and the caress of your lips.
My soul suffers beyond understanding and bleeds etheric tears
for want of you
the other half of my soul.
Oh, my life I give to you
every fiber of my soul is in your belonging.
Oh, when my mother rocked me so lovingly in my cradle
how little did I know
such an infinite loving and longing
for you awaited me
all of you
your face and form to fill my soul.
Oh, how I am powerless before my love of you!
Oh, how you could tear every fiber of my being
destroy me with a cruel and loveless heart
but I can only plead my love and longing for you
and set sail upon the sea
of your infinite heart and soul
to my utter bliss or woe.
