Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

In my mind,
I am there with such love.
For you.
And for you I wish the best,
...

Sometimes I fail to respond,
To a request that has been made.
Often in my humility,
I'm left with nothing to say.
...

How do I touch you?
And 'where'...
If I wish.
...

I want to know your name.
And sometimes I am ashamed...
To come across like a manic,
Caught to catch in a panic zone.
...

Prestigious,
Are those ties to bind kept.
Those sworn to be professed,
In a separateness.
...

Say what you will.
Most opinionated people do.
Eventually,
They will notice...
...

No one has said,
What you offer is not good enough.
Stop putting yourself down like that.
Get out of that rut!
...

I am aroused.
Because of the state of my lifestyle.
It's simple and basic from greedy needs.
And this has me happy...
...

From the top to the bottom,
There were those who chose to stop...
Actions they believe were made,
By those who went against the grade.
...

Things...
Happen every season,
For reasons.
...
