There is a certain insanity
To my love for you.
An insatiable hunger,
An unquenchable thirst,
...
Best to let old bones lie where they lay.
No use in romanticizing the dead.
Let's not root through the past,
To find that intoxicating magic
...
I wish that I could
Write the sweetest words for you.
Words that would cause you to tremble
As you a gaze upon the page,
...
The steam curls from my coffee in deep licks
Gently cajoled by the dry, crisp autumn air.
Your eyes blue and wide are everywhere.
Tranquility settles in this old, early morning heart.
...
If my love for you were the sky,
It would be too vast for this small earth.
If my love for you were the seas,
It would cover unfathomable depths.
...
Our love is new, bright, and unblemished by the passing of time.
We celebrate each day as a new joy to a young soul's revelry.
When every muscle, sinew, and bone of my body aches for you,
And it seems impossible that I could love you more,
...
What words to frame such beauty?
What words to paint such love?
A devastating type of love,
That makes life seem worthless
...
I can write the happiest verses tonight.
Write for example:
When the winter melts
And all its dew is cane,
...
This road we've taken has been a most happy one.
A year's travel has left no regrets, just joy and ease.
It's easy to love you because you bring such peace.
...
The Catskills were ablaze in changing leaves.
Perched upon a jutting rock formation,
We absorbed, wondered, pondered the magnificence.
The country side was an ocean of green turning,
...
A Love Sick Haiku
My heart throbs for you.
As my head throbs with the flu.
What am I to do?
