A Poem You've Read

11/28/2018

You know when you’ve read a poem
Not by its questionable rhyme
Nor its disdain for punctuation
And complete disregard for time


Not by its love for the ordinary
Nor its refusal to stay on the page
Not by its willingness to hold you
While you break free from Maya’s cage


Not by its rare discernment
Nor its way for making you think
Not by its need to meet you
While your soul steps out to drink

You know when you've read a poem
When you have no wish to speak
For the words that came upon you
Said what your heart told you last week

You

The day I fell in love with
You
You told me we could just 
Be friends
The next morning I woke up
For you
To tell you that was all I
Needed

The night I lost my heart in 
You
You told me yours worked
just as well
The next morning I woke up
With you
To tell you that I was still
Alive

The day I left my life for
You
You told me you were 3 
Steps ahead
The next morning I woke up
To you
To tell you that we hadn't 
Made it out of bed

The night I stared into your
Divine creation
You told me it was made
From colored pencils
The next morning I woke up
In you 
To tell you that my world
Was just rainbows

I walked this life, without 
Knowing your smile
For too many breathes, and 
Too manymiles
I waited for you, not 
Knowing you'd be
My life, my heart, my love's 
​Destiny

Anyway

You didn't deserve to be listened to
But I did anyway
You didn't deserve to take my time
But I gave it to you anyway
You didn't deserve to have my patience
But you received it anyway

We crawl out of dark places
To meet the rising sun
To feel that, indeed
We do not need to crawl
Back

Awash in a world of humility
Tolerance
Generosity
Compassion
Some find the light
And shower with God's Grace

While others crawl back
Into that deep dark place
An internal hell
That acts as a sanctuary
From the truth
That love will always
Win

    Because all that science just gets old after a while.
