I Know

I know what I want And I feel what I need You are the one Who stops all the bleed With you I look forward And never behind You keep us important Never stuck in rewind No worries but taxes I don’t need those glasses To show life as rosy For with you I’m cozy So put up your dukes And let’s get this thing started For life is a battle And together we’ll fight it Doesn’t matter if we win For you know we’d just grin Those monsters that scare us Won’t break us or make us We have comfort in knowing Our love for each showing And Always at night When you turn out the light You’ll be holding me tight So then all will be right Written- 12/08/2020 12:26 PM

Great pen C.A. with super rhyme and super imagery with insightful thought too. Take care, my friend, Gordon

Poet, I'd love to have you at my side once the battle's begun. My Dukes 'r up "Not Waving...", not drowning, been swinging at every Enemy I can find. Your piece gives me hope that I Am not alone, the fight's still worth fighting for as long as we hold love in our hearts and our minds. For it's the Beautiful Truth of Reason and Faith, together. So, let us "Gather Darkness", it's monstrous sleep, and show it the door that our Light will open. This piece of yours has re-energized me. Thank you.
