Poems About Love
My Counterfeit Reality
I approached a familiar corner;
demanding a sharp right turn;
seemed an odd place to mourn her;
and, for the past, to yearn.
Twas a sharp turn to negotiate;
and my past came peering through.
My present seemed to mutate;
and my past became my view.
A
…Fragile
I feel so weak, in great pain and helpless,
my body looks so old and broken down;
and, at the same time, I almost feel ageless;
my memories my mind wants to drown.
I scarcely believe that’s my face in the mirror;
is it true that its actually
Retribution
Some people we meet, are easy to love;
while others, are easier to hate;

The Essence Of A Kiss
There is something special about a kiss;

The kiss transforms a friend to
That Was Another Time
I recall from memory, a most different time;
when most were cordial and polite;
such time has evolved into a dimension, sublime;
