Volume 128 of Poems (got more rhymes than J Ds got Salingers)

Natural Love
When I talk to you I feel no social anxiety
Because when I talk to you, you become a part of me
You sit without judgment so I can speak freely
But your compassion and care turn me on
And then the comfort level is all gone
Because I want too much to strengthen the bond
So I quietly wait for your love to grow forward
And you can be part of the relationship I'm headed toward
And our love can our love's reward

Do You Think?
Do you really think you know what it's like to be "independent?"
Do you think you can find hope without commitment?
Do you think making it on your own is abandoning those who loved you?
Do you think it means not having to think it through?
Do you think independence makes you free
Even when you leave all sense of community?
Are you happy with no one but the pictures on your shelf?
Are you fulfilled living for nothing, nothing more than yourself?

Saint Nobody
Do you know of Saint Nobody
Never acts weird never looks gaudy
Lives a life lacking the need of correction
In an ideal world he's the model of perfection
He lives with no form of contradiction
A prime example of social restriction
He's the saint from Nowhere
And its not that he doesn't care
He just assumes the world is fair
And there's resolution to every prayer
And to question is something he just wouldn't dare
He can't just be Mr. Someone of Somewhere
