Was my choice to love you
not reason enough
for you to choose me too?
Or was I just not reason enough for you?

I gave what I had.
I thought love,
when offered honestly,
would be met halfway.

But love isn’t contagious.
And choosing someone
doesn’t guarantee
they’ll choose you back.

Imagine how many people dislike you because they didn’t hear your side of the story.🥀🖤

- - - To Donna, My Wife - - -

I love you, Donna. I love you as much as can possibly be.
I miss your smile -- that smile you smiled when you were glad to see me.
I used to enjoy buying new jigsaw puzzles for you,
And then we would work them until we were through.
Then there were the burgers you used to like to eat
Like they were a very special treat.
Now when it seems that everything is in the past
It's memories -- it's memories that last.
I remember kissing you good night
And knowing that it always felt just right.
I remember how you liked to give away my gum,
And how you liked to chew it -- yum, yum, yum!
Good night, sweet Donna. May you rest in peace.
Know that my love for you will never cease.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dust if you must, but wouldn’t it be better
To paint a picture, or write a letter,
Bake a cake, or plant a seed;
Ponder the difference between want and need?

Dust if you must, but there’s not much time,
With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb;
Music to hear, and books to read;
Friends to cherish, and a life to lead.

Dust if you must, but the world’s out there
With the sun in your eyes, and the wind in your hair;
A flutter of snow, a shower of rain,
This day will not come round again.

Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it’s not kind.
And when you go( and go you must)
You, yourself, will make more dust.

BY MY SIDE

I am the remnants of
Our stolen love,
A hidden memory
Residing beyond the
Overwhelming dread
That anchors me.

I'm the dreamed-up kiss,
The tender first
Brush of your hand,
Eagerly expected.

I am the confession
Of love unspoken.

I'm the note left unsent,
The poem never
Breathed into life.

I am the untrodden path,
The one we didn't take,
My love,
Yet this unventured road is
My everyday stroll,
I walk with you eternally.

Seasons turn,
Leaves bloom,
Fade, wither,
And bloom once again -

I have tread this path
So frequently that I require
Not the sight of a leaf to
Affirm it's presence -
My canvas is
Painted in response to
The command
Of my thoughts,

Hence, even in
Your absence,
I feel
Your existence
Here,
By my side.

Still, this looming dread
Holds me captive,

For these
Moments are
Where I walk
With the
Ghost of you,

When my soul
Yearns
Your presence

But the fear of
Never holding you,

Stops me
From holding you,

Hence, the poem remains unread,
Words stay trapped in silence

As I envision you walking,
Hand in hand with me
On this often lonely
Path of hope.

I saunter past barren fields
Teeming with roses,
Eagerly awaiting
The initial caress
Of your hand.

I know to speak my truth
May rob me of the
Very hope of you -
I don't yet
Have the strength
For that,
So we remain here,
Together,
As I imagine
You are mine
Forever more.

IN THEIR EYES

The truth is I could never tell
What others saw of my own shell,
I'd only judge the parts of me
That made them see me differently.

The more I grew the less I felt
The need to judge this simple shell,
I felt my beauty from within -
No longer picking at my skin.

It's funny how life plays our mind
For when we look, we find unkind -
Just as we see the mirror's glow,
When we search, division grows.

Now when I see my own reflection,
I see beyond each imperfection -
I just look to feel this love within,
See it glowing from my skin.

Still I cannot really tell
What others see of my own shell,
But I see my image in their eyes
When I reflect to them this love inside.

Pretending to move-on from the past,
She scrolled through pictures, deleting fast.
Every image of him, she cast away,
Erasing the moments, come what may.

Pictures of golden hour, each moment are so divine.
Now vanished, and lost in the sands of time.
But one photo remained, and there a sight to behold,
Him smiling with long hair, so bold.

In his hand, a bottle of Jack Daniels tight,
A snapshot of joy, and a moment so right.
She froze in her place, with her heart heavy with ache,
Longing for the love she was about to forsake.

Tears welled up in her eyes, with a silent plea,
"Please, take me back," she whispered, desperate and free.
Regret washed over her, with a wave of pain,
As she realized her loss, her heart's refrain.

LOVE SEALED WITH KISSES AND TEARS....

I ll make you my first thought
Pushing past my heart's desires
You av become my priority now
Ever since you came into my life

When d whole world turns
against me
I see d writings on d sand
My eyes catch sight
Of your promise
That I'll never give up
on me
When they lift stone
to haul
Even those I trusted...
When even friends
betray
I know you ll
forever stay.....

When you ask if
I still love u
My queen...
I cherish you more
Your light glow
in my heart...
My love for you is extreme...
Beyond doubt...
Love sealed with kisses and tears...
Most precious...

Dear Future Gift,

It's your father reaching across time. I've wandered in pursuit of your mother, yet each encounter yields betrayal.
My once hopeful heart now bears doubts, as love's elusive essence evades me.
I wonder if you'll stand by me when my fervor wanes.
Love, when it finds me, clashes with dreams, leaving me adrift in turmoil.

Always striving for the best for you, my yet-to-be son,
Grant me patience as I pursue your mother's love.
Before you grace this world, may peace and love envelop you,
Your devoted father of the future

My soul is tired
Perhaps it's time
To lay down and dream
A better life than mine
A life where love
Has no price
Where helping others
Has no thoughts, twice
A life where illness
Has no place
And hatred has left
The human race
Where flowers grow
And the sun just shines
In some other life
That isn't mine.

I envy the moon;
how beautiful it must be
to watch over you in the night,
bringing you light,
in the dark.

I envy the shadows dancing in the forests…
drawing you into their limbs,
tucking you in close,
like only I would, if I could.

I envy the wind
that brushes against your skin…
how my fingers ache
to brush your skin;
to be the wind.

I envy the sun
as it rises in dappled reverence,
a shimmer in your eyes,
if only I could be the sun…
the warmth of me
setting fire to your soul.

Come back to these arms
waiting to embrace your scars;
they’ll hold you fast
in a love that lasts
the test of a million lifetimes.

Will you still love me
when I’m six feet under
the soft verdant moss
of Ostara -
the flaming trees
of Mabon -
the deep white
of Yule -
the smoldering heat
of Litha?

If
I am ash
in the wind -
or the ocean -
or the rain -
on the mantle
of the fireplace -
or just a picture
in a frame?

Will you still love me -
when my roots
weave through time -
and fly
into new breath -
new flesh -
new eyes?

When I am the same
- but different -
eyes searching -
heart wandering -
flesh quivering -
wanting for you?

Will you still love me -
on the - uncertain -
otherworldly planes
of unbridled
existence?

Will you still love
the ashen remains
of a life once lived
in a house
of brittle bones
and unkept gardens?

Maybe you won’t -
and I will become familiar
with the dark
- the quiet -
of shadows
and swirling dust
on the other side.

The forever of never
or the never of forever?
Or maybe
you will.
