You have shown me what love is, for all it is.
It's the highs and the lows. The good with the bad, the bad with the good, the good, the bad. It's the ugliness and laughter and salty tears. It's the sweat and moans. It's the gentleness, the sincerity, the raw, inevitable passion. It's the fire, it's the ice, it's the burn. It's the selflessness, the hopefulness. It's connecting of thought, the loving of souls, it's expressing what words cannot. It's as simple as a gesture, like our hands intertwined. It's as complex as staring into each other's eyes, the windows of the deep inside.
Here we are, two wanderers, wandering together, on this big wide planet, only a speck in the universe.

First Encounter

A beginning
      A seedling
Fertile youth
        Ageless gaze;
By passion they were found,
    And by passion they were lost.

*---------*

    Holding Hands

Buried with touch
    Amidst a new language.
The world beats
    Pulsating claritys,
Falling confusions,
      Dreaming awake....

*--------*

    Smiling For Him

Embers of hope
    Shedding darkness,
A surge of feeling
    Insisting existence:
The soul alive!

*--------*

         First Kiss

Flames of magnetic touch,
   Fire knots in the stomach,
Without words
    Wet syllables speak
Unlacing Passion's verbiage.

*---------**

    Saying I Love You

Children of the dust
    Reach a balance
Within the universe;
Destiny unfurls
In a creation of words
Speaking like children of God.

Just me and him...
Having a conversation in the quiet of night.
Just me and him...
Baring honesty with no restrictions, no fright.

I tell him,
"Why must it always rain on me?"
I confide in him,
"Why do I feel what others don't see?"

Momentary silence...

And then he says,
"It doesn't always rain...
Sometimes you are sheltered.
You feel too much.
Over things that shouldn't have mattered."


Pause...

I am a child, fighting my case.
"If I don't, who then will choose to care?
Who then will toil for days to come?
I'm exhausted now...
And it's not fair."


He chides me in an instant.
"It was your choice to take on this role.
It was a decision made freely.
If you're looking a direction in which to point,
point to a mirror and you'll see the reason why it's taking a toll."


I gasp in faux disbelief
for I know it is true.
I've known all along
that it's me, not you.

I hesitate...
And then I reply...

*"Oh shut up!"
A war with you,
is like a war with who?
A dance with you,
is like an illusion,
that will never cease to come true.
People have wasted lives,
to have you,
to make two,
as one.

And this desire,
to be special in a fire
they call love that
should be have.
I call it, mind control.
You call it, "True love's toll".

It seems everything's unsure.
If it's an us or is it just me.
Yet you assume,
wanting to love,
to give
to be given
to be loved.

But there is no assurance.

Is there?

A man? A woman?
They are not everything.
Everyone comes and go.
They escape our lives,
like a throwback in a row.

Don't waste your life.
A woman may be yours,
but your lives are
a two separate course.

Don't waste your life.
To a man who has the ability
to take and take
while loving you in a fashion,
so fake.

The world goes round,
to money, to fame
to love.
But loving can hurt.
And it's not your worth.

**So give yourself, the love you deserve.
○ A poem by Juliet G. Jimenez ○
08/18/2016

** Note: So, yes, another poet actually inspired me in the making of this poem but I put a little twist to it by adding the romance tag cuz, well, seems like people today all have a horrible love life. This is just a product of another tinkering of how I feel about the matter.

Yes, I do think that having someone you love and to offer your life with is very wow (laughs, I easily lose words) but it doesn't mean you should destroy yourself in the process of loving them.

Give yourself the love you deserve. Everyone deserves it. So, enjoy. **

My heart

He makes me smile when he smiles
He makes me sad when he is sad
He makes me excited when he is excited
He makes my heart flutters when he calls my name

He talks a lot and I only listen
He lectures a lot and I only nod
He goes around and I only follow
He holds my hand and I only smile

Thinking of him makes me happy
Thinking of his love makes me feel loved
Thinking that he is waiting for me
I will only say, this is my heart.
*His Heart*

It was a lovely day after rain
Green paddy fields dancing
With their heads shaking
For the rhythm of breeze
A yellow butterfly fluttering
Around beautiful flowers
The muddy scent spreading
Earth's love with the rain
Water gliding from leaves
With a sound of gulp
Trees in wet clothes shivering
Waiting for a towel from the sun
Flowers and leaves like stamps
Sticked on the wet ground
With no pride but style
Rain leaves with a silent smile
