SOURCE.
A life w/out resources
is a lonely world
but your love has
brought all that I want
you’re a most resourceful girl
you have rocked my world
baby, you have rocked world
You are my source
& I am your need
our love provides everything
from which we both feed
we are never hungry
we are never thirsty
I can’t tell you
how many other loves
before you,
cursed me
but your love
came & nursed me
your kisses reversed
& dispersed all my sorrow
leading me from the worst
of my lonely tomorrows.
You are the source
of my fondest of dreams
blended gently w/ yours
as they all reconvene
to face much better futures
no more beggars & choosers
Love’s finest of gifts
bound us w/ tender sutures
it’s a love that we’ll nurture
it’s a beautiful merger.
You and I, me & you
caught up in the rapture
of a love that’s so true
1 & 1 become 2
w/out any subtraction
only sweet satisfaction
we both share the addition
of all our lives were missing
Baby..
You are my source
that set me on a course
that each day will support
our lives w/ no remorse
your love provides everything
as I grant what you need
& we joyously feed
on the fruits of our love
we are never hungry
we are never thirsty
my heart was broke
it had no worth
but you reimbursed me
& you will never hurt me
& I’ll never hurt you
we are both on a journey
to the paradise of 2
Sometimes love
can be so easy
when two share it
oh, so freely
when I please you &
then you please me
all it takes is
two believing
That we are both
providers
all the sources we need
to nourish love
& then willingly give
what we each long for
in a love that will
last forevermore
Cause we always
will want more
as we both forget before’s
when other loves were stingy
& became what we abhorred
& I promise you
I will be your source too
in an endless flow of love
that is never overdue
because I love you baby…
because I love you……………..
in ways that I promise are true….
2.-"Caustic."
Your love is caustic baby
It's eaten a hole in my soul
it's has eroded my heart
from the very start…
if I knew it then I
would have never taken part
but you had me hooked
I was your latest mark
in your mortar and pestle art
& love does not always
make a man more smart
I did not realize I was poisoned
I was too busy enjoying
what to soon became annoying
till my ears teared up & moistened
& my stomach quickly turned
from the lessons I had learned
that you doled out daily to me
bitterness that ran right through me
it was all just liquid shit
& soon I was done with it
you were too damned possessive
& your jealousy excessive
what was love became aggressive
& it’s weight became oppressive.
You’d spy on me when
we were not together
accusing me of fooling
around but I never
was anything less than
faithful to you
then you sent other girls
to try and woo me
into their arms
just to prove that it was true
& there was little
left that I could do
except be free of you..
But you kept on poisoning me
even after I had left
telling everyone I cheated
screwing girls without regrets
leaving you just second best
but most of the folks you lied to
knew me better than you had
so your poison turned
back round on you
you were considered mad
& other guys avoided you
leaving your love life sad.
Then I heard about your history
& found it was no mystery
as to why you chose to poison me
other sickened men had set you free
& though a piece of me still grieves
your love in which I once believed
I’ve found some peace & I can breathe
away from your obsessive needs
to poison every man you meet
