Infected Love -

Infected with love ~ (a collaboration with my daughter) ROYAL

BY: ROYAL

Everyone knows, yeah they know
surrounding myself with the thoughts of suicide
scars in my heart, hurting past tense, 
where have you gone, outta my sight
here is where you belong, come back.
you come and go come and go,
one day you weren't there no more.
things where good, I turn for a second 
now your gone,
you come back, just come back!
infect me with your love.
stop hurting me now, you left me wanting more.
I never showed how much I love you.

~~

BY:PD

All the pretty flowers,
Never will compare, to the passion in your eyes.
I never walked away, 
It was time for me to say goodbye....
Walking away, to another land.
Here, love is more than you'll ever understand.
I never left you alone, God had other plans.
I'm not gone, just relaxing till you arrive.
I took your infectious love with me.
If you only knew your sad injections,
Are still causing a stronger immunity.
Not even death wore-off your infection.
You never had to say it,
 I would seen it in your eyes...
Baby don't cry! 
Baby dry your eyes!
From here your still infecting me with your love.

~~

NOTE::
ROYAL
Top half was written by my daughter ROYAL~ 
She wrote the top half from my point of view... to my mother 
( who passed away on my son's birthday )

PD
Second half was written by ME,,,
I wrote my half from my mothers point of view (RIP)   
( who never got to hear them word, I LOVE YOU :-'( 
I held a grudge against her because she gave me up for adoption... 
 I loved her deeply... STILL DO...

A very deep and emotional write Linda, But what I do know in my heart is that she did hear the words I love you. And she must be very proud of you and your wonderful family. You just radiate love out every pore. That is what draws so many to you throughout your life. And I was drawn in like a moth to your radiant loving heart.....Hugs...Luv....Roger

A great tribute and love overflows in this heart touching write my friend. In her simple beautiful words even Royal has moved our hearts. Give my blessings to her. This is really a wonderful emotional write which I missed earlier. I am really sad for the loss of your mother. May God give you and your family member’s courage to face this great loss and grant eternal peace to your loving mother. Love and best wishes...Ravindra...Poet D

True love lets go when they think its for the best even if the one letting go hurts first and knows you will hurt later. but not as much as if she held on... much love

Thanks, PD for your kind comment and best wishes re my Spring poem. I can only imagine what it would be like to be adopted. My mom was, and then kidnapped in her teens by her real mom and taken to another country. That kind of pain needs a special closure, but writing always helps.....Take care, Maureen

I think it's really cool that you and Royal finally were able to write a collab-- a sad write but I think one can relate to this on some level-- I like the analogy f=of thet "infectious love"-- very nicely done, you two! I hope all's well with you and thanks for sharing that part about your mom & your son's bday-- I think that happened for a reason, the date I mean...
