Poetry Post 287

Eternal Spouse
You are the easiest pleasure to dream
Because you are as beautiful as you seem
I fear no vulnerability in our intimacy
Because you've put your full trust in me
From friend to fantasy
You fulfill every need in me
I am father to you as you are mother to me
As we rely on each other's maturity
A true symbiotic love life of give and take
Living securely on a lifeline too deadly to break
Secure in the total presence of each other when we wake
Because we know our love can only live by what we make

My Dancing Girl
Standing alone leaning against the wall
Watching all the people dance in the hall
I finally ask the girls to dance with me
At first not one girl would say yes to my plea
So back to the wall, for the lonely, for me
How I wished for a girl to end my misery
Then I had to try again or just take the grief
Then I got my long awaited relief
A girl I had asked said yes she would
From that answer everything seemed good
I danced slowly with the girl so beautiful
My dancing girl shined on a day so awful

Sell Out
It seems that if you sell out people listen to you
And do as you want them to do
But if you're true to yourself and say what you want to say
People turn and look the other way
But the fakers always live with regret
That no one they ever met
Knew who they were or what they were about
For they thought their identity they could live without
But those who are true have little to regret
For those who they have met
Knew who they were and what they were about
And those who didn't like them they realized they could do without
