I Need Your Love

We are busy

I get that

We work hard and do everything we can

To make our day beautiful

Little sleep and always craving for more

Exercising on the fly

Filling in our hours

With so many activities

Take out all the doctors appointments, errands, and daily chores

My greatest love will always be

Not what you may think

Not the hours of Facebook and the Internet

The programs on t.v.

Listening to the country music in the car

Which are all interesting and make you smile

They don't compare to the love that you give

The long hugs that continue after the day is gone

A simple smile that catches my eye

Your voice and the powerful words that leave your lips

The tender kisses that renew our love

When we are alone

Arm and arm

Rejoicing privately

Celebrating our deepest love

That is often put on hold

Left to later when we have more time

To be far above all the rest

Next time you think of something else

Remember it wouldn't be the same

Without the love that continues to grow

Endless and so passionate

Every time is like the first time

Gypsy Rose Lee Sometimes it is good to try other jobs other than writing. Then your mind will be focusing on other tasks and your writing may unexpectedly bloom. You might meet other people who could further your career. Less stress on making ends meet and more fun on writing when you write. Your talents are beautiful. They just have to meet the right connection. Thank you for caring. Writing isn't easy and those who keep at it will always share something so special. That nobody else has done. Words have a way of changing people's thoughts and making every day a little more special. Have a relaxing night.

Kari Poulsen Life hits us with an endless variety of world situations that are so different and yet so interesting. We do what we can and yet many more things get pushed off to another day. It is important that we make time for the people who make our life incredible. Thank you for reading and sharing. Have a wonderful night.

Brenda Arledge There are so many distractions that can take us away from what it really important. Sometimes we have to put certain things off till later only to do what makes us happy now and will continue for many years in the future. I like the simple things. Being together and sharing the simplest of times. Thank you for all your comments and support. May you have an ecxciting night.

Devika Primic I keep trying to have fun and find a new way to share the wonders of life. Sometimes I come up short and my effort goes back into the recycle pile. Then I try something else and after a little time, it will get better. I am very happy to see you enjoyed my poem. Thank you so much and have a beautiful night.

This is a lovely romantic poem. Right now I am between a rock and a hard place. Waiting eagerly for a payment that is not coming, having an iffy financial position and making more bids for writing jobs and sometimes I just get so tired I wish I could forget about it all. I hope the upcoming weekend is a good one for you.

This is so sweet.

It is true that if the ither one isn't around life just isn't the same.

Linda Crampton The emotion of love can be complicated. It can take on so much heartache and yet through it all bring on the joy that makes us feel good and keep wanting to create more love. We don't live in a bubble so everything is subject to all influences from people and events every day. By keep repeating what is good and healthy we can keep love alive and well. Thank you so much for reading and sharing. Have a good day.
