Jonathan Redman Poem
Love is a horrible thing
You get wrapped up in love and all the happiness it can bring
Love for another gives you false hope
You think every thing will be alright and then your heart is snapped like a rope
Love fills the void deep in your chest
But when it is gone it is replaced with defeat and self-detest
Self hatred for getting caught up
In love that fills you only to be pored out like a cup
A saying goes that if life gives you lemons then make lemonade
In life love is sugar and once the drink has been made
Like love, you drink it all up, but then it is gone
After its gone you are left up a creek
You feel heartbroken, used, powerless and weak
Love makes you feel safe like nothing can harm
It draws you in with its allure and charm
But then it snaps you clear in two
Leaving your eyes filled with tears that spew
So is ask myself is love really worth its cost
You open yourself up and then, all the sudden its lost.

Jonathan Redman Poem
You ground me and you are my rock
So come back to me before your love slips away like a ticking clock
You complete me and fill in my holes
You are a great attribute to my life with your many roles
You are my best friend, my lover, and an inspiration to me
You are so intelligent, and yet you cant see
That you are the yin to my yang
Truly to someone like me
You are so important, you truly mean everything

Jonathan Redman Poem
Here I sit, wrists steadily bleeding
My happiness I see quickly fleeting
I think about the pain
My friends have shunned me
They think me insane
The world is quickly spinning like a top
What must I do to make this stop
Sitting here in my chair I’ve thought
Is this whole thing my fault
Is this all because of my sinning
Is that why my world keeps spinning
Why must I feel this way
Will I feel better on a new day
For some reason I think not my friend
It seems as though this is the end
All I see is black everywhere
Black in th3e sea and black in the air
Black in every thing that once was pretty
These hopeless feelings are such a pity
All I see is a tunnel of bad
And my inside all beat up and sad
I want to believe my happiness I shall fend
But I feel this is the end

Jonathan Redman Poem
Chelsea, I love you so much, it is you who I need
I wish to start over and plant a new seed
In hopes that it will prosper and grow
But lets not rush it we can take it slow
I know you have a life riddled with problems
I would be honored to be able to help you through
What you need is someone who truly cares about you
And darling guess what, I do
I love you so much, it’s not real
You cannot fathom the intense emotions I feel
You are my first and only true sweetheart
My love for you pierces my soul and I wish not to part
I long for your presence and wish you were here
Because I love you so much and need you my dear

Jonathan Redman Poem
My dearest Chelsea, the one who I love.
I pleaded for your presence every night before bed
And you were sent down to me like a pristine dove
I love every part of you, every hair on your head
I love every weakness and every flaw
You have broken my heart and made me feel dead
But I still remember all the strength, love and passion that I once saw
I love you still in spite of it all
You mean the world to me, it truth you are my very reason to be
So please don’t ostracize me with your mental wall
You are the source of my happiness cant you see
you complete my puzzle and make me whole
In all the universe no one loves you like me
You are vital to me you hold the key to my soul
I asked for someone to love and god sent me you
You are beautiful, brilliant, funny, and perfect in every way
And in your times of trouble I will certainly help you through
I need you, so please take me back, this is all I shall say
