I just want to love you
Until the end of time
I’d prefer to hold you close
Rather than this distance putting us into a bind

I just want to love you
Unconditionally
There are still so many years
To fall in love with you more
traditionally

In the past, the concept of love made me dubious
I had my trust broken, misconstrued and deconstructed
But now I can see having kids and a husband
With you?
Not sure,
But you erupt like Vesuvius

My feelings for you are volcanic and I wish I could hold you
Cradle your head in my arms, flesh resting on floob
I love you most in these moments of utter simplicity
It’s during these times where you speak more transparently

I want to protect you,
Don’t get caught in my life
It burns bright and red hot and
Lava flows,
putrid sulfuric sin

I just want to love you
Even (more) when I’m with him
Because I’m reminded of you
When our song comes on
On a whim

I just want to love you
Even (more) when you’re with her
Things may work out better there,
But my deeds have more flow

I just want to love you,
Hold you close and tell you it’s alright
And lay with you- no pressure-
Until dew glistens in the morning light

I see you everywhere in the corners of my vision
It feels as if it’s all a  dream, or perhaps a
Nightmare, and in it, time rewinds, the scenario switched,
But you would completely change your decision

You wouldn't want me, and I wouldn't want you
We’d lose sight of what drew us together
We’d get competitive, restless
And it would no longer be a question of whether

But I still just want to love you
In a world without end
After we’ve seen it all
And we’re both on the mend

I still
Just want to love you
Somewhere we both don’t know
In a place far away, fog settles,
And under a quilt we burrow

I want to find you again in a place so anomalous
Filled with neon signs, bright lights, and visual overdoses
I will see you seated at a bar, thinking of why you’re here
I’ll approach you
So much having changed that we seem anonymous

For my sons and their wives.
For my friends and their wives
For my friends and their husbands.
May no challenge in life be more important
Than the bond of your true love.
May you live in kindness.
May you live in love.
May your hearts dance in eternal joy.
Forever and ever in Love.
No one needs to stand in the way of a train. If abuse is happening and your loved one will not seek help. It is time for a tough decision. Sometimes tough decisions help to bring change before a possible divorce or even afterwards. The offending partner may decide to seek help,because they have lost someone they love. Others, may not choose to change. We all have agency. This post is for couples who wish to keep their love alive and do all that they can to grow in respect, love, and honor for each other. There are times when marriage gets tough and it is by determination to work it out that a marriage survives. It is by wanting the best for each other as individuals and as a couple, together, that matters. If this determination is not there, it is not eternal.

You make me wanna go,
Why wouldn’t I go?
Should I go?
Why can’t I let go?
Leave you behind,
Be happy with me, myself and I.

What a paradoxal world..
I still don’t understand love fully..
Dumb enough to think that everything is in its best colors,
But it s mostly grey, cloudy and black.
Feels like my heart it’s getting cold,
But i still hold on..
There are moments when we’re talking face to face where I stare at you for a little bit longer and think to myself, how could I have been so lucky to find you?

At this moment,
And at this time in my life.

I need you to understand. I will always love you, even in your broken.
Not in spite of it or because of it, but as a result of it.
I buy dead roses so they can see their beauty in my reflection when they wilt away.
I can’t leave broken glass figurines where they may never find a home.
So when you’re trying to piece yourself together, or start to fall apart, know that I love you.
And I can only hope that you still love me too.

You
There was a time in life when I thought there was no one
No one- to love me
I gave so much
Just so much that it was overwhelming enough not to receive any in return

Then there was you
You who were so unexpected
so different so …
So wanted

Your smile
Your glances
Your stares... were just tasty
Tasty in a way that I could feel them
Feel them in my mouth before I even tasted you- fully

With you I didn't hold myself back
In fact I threw myself to you
I wanted you
I wanted your hands on me
But most importantly I wanted your hands on my soul
I wanted you to hold my soul between your rough masculine palms
Because I knew
With you it would be the safest

And now that you have it in your very... bare...hands
I hope you would hold on to it
Because I feel our souls have connected
Connected in a way that science cannot possibly explain

Because science cannot… in any way...explain the way you look into my eyes while you touch me
Or could science explain the way your face flushes pink while you kiss me hard enough that I...
I just... can’t breath
Or
Could science...could science ever explain why I...fell for you?

You have so much of power over me
By choice
By my...choice
But at this point I can't take it back even if I wanted to
Because
I love you...
I love you

dark chocolate eyes
the kind that should have been mine
hips like the tide
move like that
make me smile
legs that keep going
have me looking longer than a mile
you wind me down
better than the strongest wine
but you go down smooth

the taste of your mouth
sweet like the strawberry kind
lips so soft it make you stop just to think about them

though your words cut deeper than a carving knife
i'd pay to hear you speak them one more time

make me question every ******* day
why the hell you aren't mine

baby i'd put myself in debt
just to hold you for a while
you say no amount of money
can buy your time
but when that hand
is on my thigh
it's you who colors my sky
painting right over my grey days
wish i knew you'd always
be by my side

i like astronomy
but i can t decide if
my feelings for you
are
meteors
or
meteorits?

Poet X Jan 2020
i suppose its not much of a secret anymore,
that im in love with you.

so let me tell the whole world
let me tell them
i would steal the stars
and wreck the universe
just
to see you smile .

let me tell them
that my heart is yours
and if you asked
i'd give you my soul too.

five words
bad words
sad words
it was like geting hit
by swords
but i wanna hoard
those attention
those affection
give me more
give me less
give me enough
give me now
so how
whisper it
tell it
do it
