Selfless

You make me think ever lasting
which I don't ever feel,
You make me think ever young
which I ever feel when you are around.
You make me think ever ready
which I am hardly ready to accept,
You are a gate way to a source
That makes me what I am not
but what Iam.

The day we met was grand
on the ground
That the physical god
manifested
it's self in us
all was superfine really
but superficially fine

Seeking of happiness is the seeking of God
The abundant happiness
we shared together
is the key
to this great experience
You gave me the ultimate
i wouldn't be able to get alone
i think i did like wise to you.

There is something in you I cannot do without,
There is something in me you cannot do without
To isolate ourselves is to avoid God
which is not possible
come on baby
It's one by one we work wonders
It's the physical god in motion.

Nice piece. Makes me think of the conflict between the heart and the mind.

"There is something in you I cannot do without,
There is something in me you cannot do without"

This is a great assumption, how we try to convince ourselves our needs are greater than our existance. This poem seems a struggle between intellectual and emotional rationality, and it seems that emotional rationality won. I enjoyed this poem very much, thanks for the read...Roy

This is truly beautiful. It shows a person who knows and respects not only the other but ones self. Bravo!

I like the style of your poetry,the way it gets to the point,the way it says" This is how I feel-listen!".
