50 Assorted Poems (Work In Progress)
1
My love for you frightens me
It is something that is deep
It is something I can’t fully explain
It is something I don’t want explained
Sometimes I just want to feel
And that is what you do
And I feel blessed and humbled
But also a little scared
2
When I am tired
You soothe me
When I complain
You listen
When I can’t take any more of the world’s hate
You show kindness and affection
When I fail
You tell me to try again
When I succeed
You celebrate with me
When I sleep
You hold me
And when I wake
You smile
And maybe that is all I need from this world
3
If love is to be fully experienced
You must give in to it
Drown in it completely
But also
Let it stray away from you
Let it lap at your ankles like a tide on the shore
Just kissing the parts of you no one else does
Touching inside you
Awakening things you didn’t know you wanted
Letting you explore yourself as you explore each other
A swirling mass of flesh where all of creation is made
And two bodies find each other
Take each other to the edge
And beyond
4
Thank you
For supporting me
Pushing my boundaries
Making me try things I would never normally try
Feel things I have never felt
Discover things about my soul
My emotions
My body
That I didn’t know were there
You’re presence in my life is the main thing that stops the world being unbearable
And for that
I definitely have to thank you
5
You infuriate me
You can’t see what you did
Why can’t you understand what you have done?
Could it be the sleight is in my head?
And you don’t know because I haven’t given voice to my feelings?
Or did you actually do it?
Love is the most confusing of all emotions
It transcends logic
Defies reason
Overlooks common sense
And sometimes plays tricks
And makes us forget
Whilst reminding us of everything
6
When I’m ill
In the middle of the night
During the day
Early in the morning
You will always rush to my aid
You’re my superhero
And will forever be
You never let me down
And I will strive to do the same
I won’t always succeed
But
Until my dying days
I will try
I will try
7
Did I ruin your life?
Spoil it for everyone else?
Does having to listen to me
Drag you down daily?
What if I tricked you?
And we were never meant to be
But what if you tricked me?
But I am too blind to see?
8
Love is the only reason we get up
Fall down
Make mistakes
Redeem ourselves daily
And forget everything that has gone before
It pushes us
Pulls us
Lifts us up
Keeps us down
Love is everything
Invisible, powerful
Ever present and ever lasting
9
I feel frustrated
Why can I not be better for you?
I want to be and angel
A devil
And more
But I fail miserably at being anything at all for you
You run while I trip
You soar while I flip
You glide where I’m stuck on the ground
I will keep trying
And I won’t fail you
But this trying is hard
I wish I could tell you how bad I want to be amazing for you
How it’s all for you
I will make you proud
I will make someone proud
10
You’re my happily ever after
My reward for the pain
My family in the absence of one
My shelter in the rain
One day you will leave me
Or I will leave you
Through normal means
Or mortal ends
But this I know is true
My time with you is eternal
It will burn forever more
And our love will inspire millions
And they will inspire millions more
11
Your fingers
Take me over
Push my pleasure too far
Too fast
To limits I did not know I had
And beyond
You make my body respond
In ways I didn’t know it could
And feel things
I never thought it should
When you are on me
Or in me
Invading my core
I feel helpless
Violated in the most pleasurable way possible
My breath catches
And my body shakes
As my pleasure pours from me
I am your slave
I am yours
12
Why won’t you tell me
All that’s wrong in your head?
Why to you think you have to carry
All your fears and dread?
Let me lighten your load
Shoulder it all
I have the strength
It will never fail
Please let me in
And I will help
Tell me everything
And I’ll let you melt
You don’t have to always be happy
Let your darkside in
Your darkness is beautiful
I love your sin
13
When you hurt
I hurt
When something is bothering you
And you don’t know what it is
I will try to cheer you up
I will do all I can
If there is nothing I can do
I will sit with you and your pain
If there is nothing we can do
We can just sit and watch the rain
When the clouds roll over
And the darkness sets in
When you’re feeling low
Let me be your friend
I will be your light
When all others go out
I will always try
Even if I can’t help
I will always try
