I dedicate this poem to one of the best poets anywhere Andrea Dietrich. Andrea can write in just about any form and never sacrifices the theme, message or passion in her poems. Her poems flow are easy to understand and she always knocks you out with the passion of her creativity. I can't tell you how often she has blown me away. So Andrea this Bud's for you.
you don't know
my love!
it doesn't whisper,
or speaks quietly in traffic
where it might not be heard.
my love
SCREAMS
LOUDLY even in the hush of the evening!
you say you know me,
but you,
you don't know me.
PASSION!
it's in my work
it's in my love
sometimes they are the same.
PASSION!
for the woman I love
it's in my kiss
let me
introduce you to bliss.
PASSION!
if I am your friend
you know it...YOU KNOW IT!
you will see it in my eyes
a highway deep
an EXplosiON inTENse!
PASSION!
if I love you,
you know it,
I'll be your full moon every night!
you think you know me
then call me by my name...
PASSION!
when I write , it requires surgery
I have to split open the rib cage.
Break every bone.
It is the only way to get to the heart,
then you have to remove it
expose it,
it s~q~u~i~r~m~s as it is pumping.
It leaves a mess
blood is spilled everywhere.
The bones heal
but
you hear the sound of metal
on metal
the gate shuts behind you.
There is a horrendous sound
it echoes in your skull,
in your mind.
There are sleepless nights.
There is a cost
a heavy cost.
PASSION!
If you want to speak to me,
after your punctuation is in place,
once your meter is formed perfectly,
I mean I don't mind.
BUT!
I want to see your heart, your love,
I want to see
PASSION!
You say you know me, then address me by my name...
