leave

One night the moon said to me,
"If he makes you cry, why don't you leave him?"
I looked at the moon and said,
"Moon, would you ever leave your sky?"

say

we say,
I love you to many people in many ways:
we say, 'drive slow'
or through a glass of coke,
poems,
prayers
or
through a smile!
any of those conveys
more affection than
any other manifestation...

my person

Intelligence is sexy to me.

If a person I find physically attractive

isn't also bright,

verbal and

someone I can talk to,

I'm not interested.

I have a highly developed

aesthetic sense

and are drawn to people of

taste,

wit

and

charm.

words and hearts

In life
words and hearts
should be handled with care
for words when spoken
and hearts are broken

are the hardest things to repair.

search

In our search for the perfect someone.
You do not marry someone you can live with.
You marry the person you cannot live without.

pretend

It's hard to pretend
you love someone
when you do not.
But it is harder
to pretend
you do not love someone
when you really do.

words

I've got words I like you to hear,
words that I truly feel,
words that somehow may heal.
Though it's not a big deal,
I miss you and it's for real.
