Array ( [sid] => 133317 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Chemical Coalition . . . Ben [time] => 2007-04-06 06:06:14 [hometext] => Many people say i inspire them and give them hope cause of the love i have in my life, guess what? i to am inspired that's why i wrote this, some of the things i see and hear on here not to mention what i read in the poetry well, let's not and say we did. [bodytext] =>


This isn't a tutorial poem by no means
i may have what some think is the perfect life
and while i'm no dr. ruth, i've been where your
at beleive it or not i was young once i've been
there and done that, perhaps i've been a little
luckier than the average bear considering what
i did for a living, being an ex rock musician, but
people need to wake up, i wasn't born married
i actually had another life before this one. i'm
only writting this so as to aliveiate any false
impressions that i notice all to often in the
coments i receive from both men and women
all though with all due respect and i'm not
being sexest, the percentage seem's to fall a
little more on the women side. Be that as it may,
i'm simple trying to keep myself free of anyone's
exspectations and just wanna be myself this time
around. make no mistake especially the female
portion of this site, i mean every sylable i write in
my poems about my love for my wife, but i need
to be able to express my self all forms on the
subject of love, not as an expert by no means,
but as some one who after 41 years married to the
same women and still loving it, with all due respect,
i must be doing something right, but i don't expect
to be envied for it like i get alot of in comments,
cause the thruth is and here i go being tactless
but at least i ain't being deceptive, and i don't
mean to be judgemental, but love doesn't just up
and leave with out a reason as i hear and read so
much of on this site, and it take's two not one,
and most of all there's always gotta be something
you didn't do as well as something you did do to
cause a break up. If i learned one thing about life
it's all inside of you, and how you been raised.
and a lot of just plain old fashion luck., not mention
one doesn't just throw in the towel because on any
given day, they don't feel the passion they once felt,
which is my guess why so many people are alone
in the first place of course that's not pertaining to
death which is entirely different. a funny thing about
love, just when you think it ain't looking that's when
you blow it, perhaps we end up alone because we
haven't as human beings, realized the fact that love
may know something we don't like the secret of
longevity in a relationship.



Love,

that chemical coalition

between a women and man.

The one you thought you

knew so well untill

your heaven turned to

hell.


Love,

oh you thought it could be found?

like something bought at walmart in aisle six

just look around.


Love,

no it doesn't work that way,

now you see it now you don't and in between

you play.



Love is born within the soul and not the

heart or head, self respect and self

control you won't find

in a

bed.


Love

is unconditional

not who's right or wrong,

it's not a man or women thing

or who's weak or

strong.


Love

is more than friendship

or saying that you care,

it's neither lust or even trust

or trying to

compare.


it's

more than just commitment

and less than fantasies,

you don't throw in the towel because

you can't do what you

please.


Ben

Ben ... first let me say your poetry is a beauty that never fails to calm the soul and make
the heart smile. This piece had an amazing flow, and yes, the advice given is quite
plausible and genuine.

I do though, take a small exception with your author's note. You are a man of passion, that
is to be certain! But your view on "how to make love stay" and your application of such
is a rather global generalization, to this reader at least. Love is a very complex, subjective,
strongly emotional enigma which, I believe can not be defined by ANY means. In fact,
sometimes love actually DOES up and leave for no reason ... or perhaps wasn't even
there in the first place. It's not as simple as saying it's something you did or said or didn't
do or didn't say. And it is FAR too individually applied to hazard reasons for why it seems
to elude a vast amount of hearts ..

And it is because of this that we admire and respect that you and your wife have the kind
of relationship you do. I am sure your "fans" realize it didn't come with ease and that in any
relationship there will be hardship, pain and compromise. THAT, is why, I believe it is so
enviable-- because you have lasted a very long time and are still so seemingly crazy about
her. And that, my dear friend, is something to be delighted in and shared. I would also
bravely offer, that it is the romance that has your loyal female fans so enamoured.
This, poet is actually a GOOD thing. For isn't that the ultimate goal of a poet? To move, us,
heart and soul? Yes, yes, I think it is. : )

We thank you for sharing ~
