    • Been very busy lately. Hope to get past some huge obstacles soon so that I can focus on some writing and spiritual renewal I desparately long for.

    I Only Want To Love You

     I Only Want To Love You

    It is you I want
    To love               not lure
    To help               not trap
    To touch             not handle
    To heal               not hurt
    I only want to love you
    Not in part nor until.

    With you I want
    To grow               not stifle
    To walk with         not on
    To run with          not from
    To soar with         not over
    I only want to love you
    Not in part nor until.

    With you I want
    To share             not deal
    To laugh with       not at
    To sing with         not about
    To dance with      not around
    I only want to love you
    Not in part nor until.

    It is you I want
    To know               not plunder
    To hold                not possess
    To please             not impress
    To honor              not flatter
    I only want to love you
    Not in part nor until.

    i love how you've put not only passion in this poem but what you feel and the love. I hope this person is in your life already or at least you'll find them soon enough. continue the great work.

    hey dreamersangel! Thanks for the comment, but no, this person is not presently in my life. This is just my idea of what love is suppose to be. Never have I known it for myself. But I refuse to let go of what I know it is, whether I ever experience it or not. If never or until, perhaps my hope can be an inspiration for others.

    Hey prinsdebi! Thanks for the vote of confidence. I don't presently have this person in my life; and for that matter, never have. If I don't live long enough to experience and share life with my soul-mate, then perhaps my hope will inspire others.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
