Guilty For Your Name Poem by Raymond Valadez

I had to go trough allot of women to be able to recognize you. I had to kiss so many to understand how you wanted to be kissed. I had to lie to understand what not to keep away and hide. I had to disappoint, only to learn how to make my point. I had to deceive to receive. I had to do all this things so when I met you I wouldn’t do them to you...

I had to learn to write, so I could write to you at night. I had to read allot, For something to talk about. I had to fight my way thru life so I could be brave for you. I had to live life with out you, just so I could meet you. I had to leave women I loved so I could find you. I had to cry I had to destroy I had to hate. I pray one day you might forgive me for being tainted in so many ways, Yes I am guilty of the above just so I could learn your name one day.
