I Didn't Want To Love You
I didn't want to love you
I didn't want to care
I didn't want to to see the void
Your absence has left there.
I didn't want to need you
I didn't want to miss
The things that I'm missing now:
Your embrace and your kiss.
I didn't want to want you
I didn't seek your charms
I didn't want to find the bliss
I found there in your arms.
I didn't want the laughter
I hadn't laughed in years
I was afraid that when it stopped
That I'd hear only tears.
And so it has, the laughter
And so, the void is wide
And so, I find now that you've gone
There's nothing left inside.
The things I didn't want from you
The things I'd held at bay
When I at last gave you my heart
Those things you took away.
And now I lay in my despair
Crushed by your loving hand
But I don't think I'll ever want
What I didn't want again.

I Didn't Want to Love you Anyway

Great poem! And great tunes!
ReplyDeleteI saw her from a distance as I was walking towards her. I could see by the way she was looking at me that she was lookin’ fir somethin’. I thought to myself, “humph I must be somethin’ cause she shor’ is looking my way!” (I had to turn around to see if anyone was behind me in case she was lookin’ past me. …….. and she wasn’t.)
Anyway! As I got closer I could see she had her hand stretched out like a rubber band. Any tighter and you could probably play “Dueling Banjos” with it!
As I approached her she took ahold of my collar and looked at me square in the eye and said, “where have you been all my life?! I’ve looked high and low for the right love and thought I’d never find the man who could sweep me off my feet until now! And Big Boy, I want to give you all the love that you deserve. I want you to know that my energy and my eyes are only meant for you. I want to go on walks with you as I cling to your arm and lean my head on your shoulder. I want to hear you breathing as you sleep soundly.
I will flirt with you and tell you sweet things that no other man would get from me. I wanna do the things that you like to even if I don’t have a clue as to what I’m doing. Cause I know you’ll teach me.
I want to feel your masculinity as I lie on the floor or the bed as you tenderly stroke my hair, and my face; my arms, and neck.
I want to feel a tingle as you slide your hands gently across my sides. I want to feel the vibes and energy that only you can give. I want you to give, and give, and give to my passionate side with such spontaneity that I will want to burst from within my whole being……… then I’ll know what you will want from me, because I have so much to give to you…….. it’s inexhaustible! You are the only one who can complete me!”
Well! I was so overwhelmed by all that she said that I reached up, cupped my hands and began to stroke her face ever so gently. I watched as she closed her eyes; and a smile began to emerge. A smile from sheer satisfaction.
I knew that I couldn’t let her slip away. She was the soulmate I had been searching for my entire existence.
After a few minutes of just this, (and I was enjoying it too!) she said, “I know we’ve just met but I want to spend the rest of my life getting to know you, because I will walk with you and talk with you. And if we have any fights I won’t walk away from you.”
Well now! She had captured my heart and I didn’t want her to let go of it but I didn’t even know her name. So I had to straight out ask, “l’il darlin’, I don’t even know your name!”
“It’s Shari! And yours is?”
“D’Sal. And it’s been a pleasure meeting you! What do you say we get out of this place? I know of a little coffee shop just around the corner where they serve the best hot chocolate mocha and chocolate chip cookies! We’ll get what ever you want.”
As we walked to the coffee shop we couldn’t help gazing at each other. Talk about love at first sight!!!
I think you should start writing Romance novels, dude. You're just full of it!!!!!!
Delete(romance, I mean) ahem....😉😉 rofl how's it going in cowboy country???
So you liked it, huh! ……… writing romance novels?! I probably could. I have enough inspiration to write what I feel and how I feel….. what do they call that, I wonder??
DeleteI still have the one that I wrote several years ago.
You write some very nice romantic stories and poems….. maybe you should try writing romance novels.
Nope! I stopped reading those things yrs ago!!! lol Warriors of the Way and Aachoo Voo, Private Eye are more my style. Plenty of romance there along with the crazy and the sci-fi and the scary and the fantasy. I've just got to get back to writing!!! These 2 horrible years have taken a toll on me in a hundred ways. Pray that the muse and inspiration visit me again.....I do miss it
DeleteWhat’s missing? Just asking!
DeleteA Muse and an Inspiration!!!! btw, We lost my cousin Mylon....I'm so sad 😢🙏
DeleteI’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your cousin Mylon……. These things are never easy. Was it unexpected?
DeleteWhy don’t you use me? I’m an a’muse’ing and inspiring guy! Haha (don’t use me!)
He survived a heart attack yrs ago and was doing great then came down with cancer while believing for a miracle. He was one of the most gorgeous men alive. it killed me to see how the cancer destroyed him. I just hate it!!!! You never expect that no matter what. It has been a very sad month......
DeleteHugs to you. I grieve with you, Voo……. No funny comments from me tonight…….. 😔
