Hungry For You
YOU, make me so happy.   YOU are the most complete woman I have ever met.   There is nothing I will not be able to do with the rest of my life; I love you more than I thought was in me; I carry you with me which each moment of the day.   I am truly pleased with my life at this moment in time; we will have numerous moments in time from this point on.  - Pk
 
Hungry For You
 
My life will never be the same
After the fires of passion fanned
By you, the only man whose name
Is etched in stone, in no man’s land
 
You touch me deep, on every plain;
From deep within my hungry thighs
With rapture that I could not feign
Reaching unprecedented highs
 
To how you fill my hungry soul
With loving-kindness that you give
That heals my heart and makes me whole
And makes this life so great to live!
 
My appetite is whetted by
The very, single, thought of you
And satisfied when you draw nigh
And we are one, where once was two.

Dear Peter Kent,  I rarely ask for anything  (I won’t even ask for directions) but I am asking something of you now, for two reasons.  I wouldn’t bring it up, because it hasn’t happened and perhaps never would, but you have brought it up twice and it seems that you are trying to feel me out on the subject without causing offense.  You have said that in the past you have used marijuana to calm yourself and to expand your vision.
 
The favour that I ask is that you allow me the opportunity to assist you in both, before resorting to drugs.  The two reasons are both selfish, but you will benefit by them as well.  In every abusive relationship I have been in (and left)  there has been a man who used grass or alcohol to relax or to help him think more broadly.  I can tell you from lots of personal experience that they were never easier to be with when they were high and in every case were much less intellectual.
 
The second reason is that with every abuse, you change who you are and I love the man I know now.  I don’t want you to be diminished by dying brain cells when it is something that can be avoided.  I know that old habits die hard, but I can be all you will ever need to cope with any situation.  I am not as well educated or as perceptive as you, but I can challenge you to think deeper, to feel more fully and to experience life more abundantly.  I want to be the only drug you need. - Carole
 
Peter wrote:  I would do anything for you; that as well... You are a blessing to me; you are changing me, broadening me.   I have never known the love I am getting from you.  - pk
 
One song can spark a moment,
One flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring.
 
One smile begins a friendship,
One handclasp lifts a soul.
One star can guide a ship at sea,
One word can frame the goal.
 
One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights a room.
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh will conquer gloom.
 
One step must start each journey,
One word must start each prayer.
One hope will raise our spirits,
One touch can show you care.
 
One voice can speak with wisdom,
One heart can know what's true.
One life can make the difference,
One utterance of I love you.
 
Love, Peter Kent
 
Dear Peter Kent, I am so touched.  No one has ever sent me poetry before.  I was greatly moved by your response to the favour that I asked.  I believe you when you say you would do anything for me and that is so empowering.  I feel strengthened by your love.
 
Note from the future:  10/29/2020 I searched Peter’s poem to me online and found that he had plagiarized it.  Why am I not surprised that even his poetic words of affection for me were stolen?
 
I've been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views.  If I'm going to share my story, it should be the whole story.  The titles are the dates things happened. If you have any int
