Who Can Argue Miracles Exist?
No man, be he grandiloquent or coarse;
be he a learned novel or tattered page;
be he devout in faith or drenched in doubt;
be he a man replete with shame of sin:
No man (unless an empty man who flaps like cynic’s skin)
who has watched the early sun come out
or heard the song of sparrows spared the cage:
No man in love with his daughters: No man in love with his universe.

love, lust, moon,
There are those who say the moon has no voice
That it hangs alone in icy silence
Mocked by the twinkling of jealous stars
A corpse illuminated by cold darkness
The Werewolves would argue in her defense
For without her they would know no passion
Feel not the surging power of the night
Wander through life’s fog strewn emptiness
No voice, does she not whisper to lovers
Ease the clumsy angst of untrained lips
Calm in silver light a fearful darkness
Allow a muffled passion’s gentle howl
Her voice the unheard song in shrouded mists
That nullifies the lies of midnight’s trysts

A BUCK’S WORTH
Does the buck know his beauty?
(some would argue yes)
No matter
Unlike men, he is one with nature
Close to the earth
And using the teeming woods to advantage
Few men can know his freedom, his non-violent
spirit
He breathes a fresher, more uplifting air
If he knows and loves, is charged by beauty
Then it is a different kind of love, a more
pristine beauty
Does he dream?
Are his dreams of mountain, forest and stream?
Who can know
The visible wild is so uncomplicated
Methinks he dreams only of what fond nature
offers
With no wish for change and free of fear

Let me express my feelings
Let me tell you a true tale
So, my husband has a "gift"
One I can't quite tell
He has his sly fox ways
Of getting what he wants
For if it isn't his way
His ways are full of taunts
He begs and begs and pleads
Honey, baby, dear
I want to hold you close tonight
I want to feel you near
Sometimes I say ok
But others it's too hot
But before the night is over
I end up in his spot
How is that he could argue
with me after such a night
Over a piece of paper
That was strictly in HIS sight
I know he has bad days
Trust me, I have mine too
I guess he can make it up to me
"Somehow" we'll make it through

Every time your not next to me
I fell like your being distant
Every time your saying mean things
It makes me feel like you don't love me at all
Every time we argue
It hurts me so much it makes me want to hurt myself
Every time you give me an attitude
I feel like your bringing me down
Every time your angry at things I tell you
It makes me feel like you hate me
Every time you look away from me
I feel like you don't want to be with me
Every time I try to joke around
You get mad at the jokes I make
But what hurts me the most
Is the way you accuse me of cheating

I believe one’s right to be angry does
not foster one a right to be cruel.
Just because two people argue
does not mean that they don’t love
each other. But we are
responsible for
our cruel actions
no matter
how we
feel.

forgiveness
Sometimes we argue
Sometimes we fight.
It gets so bad
We knock out lights.
Then it gets dark
As we hang our heads
And laugh at how dumb
Our anger had spread
It’s the small things
That get us going.
Most of the time
Without us knowing.
Let’s be more careful
And watch it next time.
So the kids don’t see
Us ring and chime.
For now let us
Just kiss and hug
To fix the hurt
And make some love.

Oh Aphrodite, Goddess of love
For you, my heart yearns for Olympus on high
As my lover's eyes scan sunsets above
They pour love into the birth of a sigh
I'll follow the course of a lover's stream
To argue with Zeus over what is a sin
As we leave Olympus with love and a dream
Love will cause us to be mortal again
To make love's diamond from blackest coal
And scorch landscapes with smoldering desire
Yet, be the flames burning out of control
With mortal hands, we'll light the raging fire
Oh Aphrodite, Goddess of love
My heart will steal you from Olympus above

Why did you tell me "I love you?"
A knee-jerk birthed of fear?
A pandering to my ego?
Words I wanted to hear?
Why did you tell me "I love you?"
Later "I don't think I do?"
A whimsical slash of cruelty?
Ambiguous through and through?
Why did you tell me "I love you?"
Then argue the point for hours?
Bicker, snap and grow sullen?
Destruction of hearts and flowers?
Why did you tell me "I love you?"
Then erase every tangible clue?
Maybe you told me for fun?
Maybe because it was true?
Why did you tell me "I love you?"
To mean life and death to me?
If you please to confirm the truth
What a wonderful life this could be.

how is it
when i'm a lone
theres no one
green pastures
of light
grace my
face
as i lean pass
the window
ready to love
not yet ready to give my heart
once afraid
now fearless
i met her before you
but she didn't respond
she saw me with you
she kind of lost her
mind.
somehow found my
number. which before
i guess was hard to find
with you i'm happy
with her. we argue all the time
i guess she didn't know
the good man she had
until it maid
another women shine.

beauty, lost love, love, love hurts, romantic love, sweet love, together, true love,
My love's eyes shine like a dark night's star
She'd say they are plane, just to see
My love look in the mirror at who we are
They are beautiful because of how they see me
When I explain in her what I see
The creator gifted, and you are blessed
She'll quietly argue and wholeheartedly disagree
It doesn't matter how sincere I protest
A walk in the woods amongst your quiet grace
I'm with you, that's all I care
I'm blessed when that room enlightening smile crosses your face
I'm awe struck and can't help but lovingly stare
I see your beauty in every twist, turn, smile, laugh, imperfection, and scar
My love haven't you yet realized I love you JUST THE WAY YOU ARE

art, god, muse,
Enthusiasm sweeps me up and
tosses me casually into the wind.
I travel heights never travelled before
To far away places
Smelling flowers not fully visualized
More fragrant than any earthly daisy
The sights are vague as I am tossed about,
but gently, endearingly
I do not argue or fight this freedom
I am feeling, unencumbered
in every way, an honor to my gypsy soul self
Encouraged to create art in a variety of forms
God given utter joy and permission
to create whatever I desire with bliss and love

They say nothing beats makeup sex,
But I tend to disagree;
I-love-you-with-all-my-heart sex
Is much more pleasant for me.
When we fight, before we compromise,
We hurt each other unnecessarily;
I’d rather we converse with mutual respect,
And caress each other quite passionately.
I know that until death do we part
We cannot never disagree;
While you contemplate that triple negative,
I’ll hold you lovingly.
So let the others argue and fight
Then make up sexually,
While you and I continue to survive
With our love making tension free.

family, mother,
This is a special lady,
you alway's depend upon.
You love her so much in the world,
and to her your "the special one"
She makes you laugh,
maybe sometime's cry..
She does it all for your own good,
and to you she would never lie.
Just look at her face,
it really does shine.
Hold on a moment..
it look's so much like mine.
We are like the same person,
we have the same smile.
We never ever argue!
well maybe once in a while.
She is "a special lady"
who is wonderful and great.
This lady is my mother,
but is also my best mate.

The sun will shine brighter tomorrow when...
If you’re thinking meek is weak, you might be wrong.
We all know "peace and love" kind of people.
Check out their fuel you will learn that they’re strong
They do not argue what's good with what's evil.
“Meek” combusts from inside, working hard and long;
I’ve discovered that meekness runs on diesel.
Humility's patina shines from within.

I know we argue I know we fight
But I wouldn't be the sane without you by my side
You are a special woman cant you see
The signs are showing their is a connection
Between you and me
I never want to let you go
You are the most shinniest piece of gold and its tome for you to come home
You are a real live angel and your kisses are fatal
You give me butterflies when you touch me
Please stay mine so we can make history specially if you marry me and be my queen as i am your king and one day we can have a family and you better believe this is Destiny

love,
I do not, amongst the dregs of my cups,
Consider you worthy to be the theme
For my untutored scribblings.
There, Madame, there: I put you
In your place, amongst the detritus
Of my life, the forgotten effigies of life,
As she should be lived.
Yet, you do not acquiesce to my intentions,
And re-emerge into my consciousness
To disturb and argue for attention and
Writings.
I am weak, and accede to your importuning
With versification to placate your demands,
To show my love.

Friends
Friends are special in our lives
A friend is like a sister or brother that will stand by your side
Friends that will hear you laugh or cry
A friend might fight and argue, but still there till the end
A friend is there to love the person that you
A friend does not walk away and pass judgment
A friend helps holds your hand and walks beside you
A friend is there to hold your innermost secrets to the end
A friend is honest and trustworthy
A friend just like you

brother,
What kind of bond can never be broken
What kind of relationship is healthy and open
A love in your heart that can never end
A loyalty between two people that will never bend
A person you can count on through thick and thin
Who gives you motivation to dig deep and never give in
Like a partner in crime you can always count on
Someone who loves you for you and knows how to have fun
This bond that I speak of is none other
Than the bond shared between two brothers
We may argue or fight from time to time
But there is no stronger bond than yours and mine
And with every beat of my heart I will always love you
Little brother listen to these words for they are honest and true

Do what you love to do,
embrace changes and encounter disappointment,
give it your very best,
make peace with your past
don’t argue and fight,
don’t waste energy for things you can’t adjust,
except yourself and don’t worry about stupid thought,
Life is too short to do the things you don't love doing.
Do the best you can,
and don't let people make your life miserable,
and live your life to a higher note,
don’t waste your time hating anyone,
give the time, sometime,
take calculated risks and make mistakes
regret nothing, get hurt and be liable,
Life is too short to be miserable.

anger, hate, heartbroken, how i feel, hurt, leaving, truth,
Why do you blame me?
And why do you hit?
I've got a big bruise,
from where you last bit.
Whatever's our fault,
Soon ends up mine.
I'm giving it up now,
And acting all fine.
"Most of the time,
It's both our fault".
Bullshit from you,
As acting adult.
"Yet at those times,
You cannot see".
Saying it's both our fault,
Has all came from ME!
I don't want to argue,
I don't want to fight.
But please do not hit me,
And please do not bite.
I love you dear baby,
But I need you to see.
It's both our fault,
Don't just pin this on me.

But now I regret because you are my life.
Fake is fake
Mistake is mistake, but
Regret is great

But argue was a mistake part
I know you will forgive me for mistakes of my life,
before I make it many a time.
You are my life!
You are my life!!

This man, my man, ogre above all
But in me, he does, internally thrall
Tattooed in naked, cloaked in lust
Heaving I, as his eyes caress my trust
Diamond I become, pert to touch
His hands, clawing, seeking such
Delving, he's reached, the depth of me
Enticing, I rejoice, releasing so free
Biting, scratching, nails in deep
Blood in rise, apologies we seep
Firm, hungry, lusting to crave
Loving each other in bordering deprave
Who am I to argue, this character man
Ogre above all, my bodies well scanned
I'm read, he's said, we've spoken
Consenting we are, sharing ones token

TRUE LOVE EXIST
Let’s love each other as humans….
Not like the one we see in our societies these days…
Where people show love to the able, ignoring the disable…
Where able people are used as the yardstick to measure normal life…
Let’s love truEly like our ancestors….
Where people treated each other with respect and understood each other’s value…
Be my friend, and I will be your guardian…
We argue, we make up but not like the one derailed by ego…
Let’s love each other, not by the standard of USIES on INSTAGRAM…
But a sweet love that goes beyond words or sight…
This love exists, let’s find it…
Inspired by peace
