This Thing Called Love

Recommended Posts

i was reading some of the posts and poems/songs about some our members love issues so i threw this together, very simple, rap/poem, guess it depends on how you read it:

This Thing Called Love

two hearts with one beat

two souls so in sync

I cry and you hurt

I give up, you make it work

I'm blind and can't see

no one else but you with me

you're my rock, you're my soul

one-half of this whole

the future in our hands, your palms cradle mine

stormy days filled with rain, your smile's my sunshine

close your eyes, hold me close

gimme more, gimme most

of the love that's in waiting

'cuz i'm doubting and debating

whether "we" could be enough

if a plain path goes rough'

if our ups turn to downs

if our smiles turn to frowns

if the world is now ending,and we only have each other

a connection so unique, i love thee like no other

our hands intertwined, your fingers grasping mine

two loves now as one,and may God's will be done

Some lines that stuck out and really grabbed me...

"of the love that's in waiting

'cuz i'm doubting and debating"

"if the world is now ending,and we only have each other

a connection so unique, i love thee like no other"

I could see this poem being published in a book or something. U should post some of your poems at www.poetry.com . U could win anywhere from $1,000 to $10,000. I did it one time and was a finalist, but if I were to win, I wouldn't get the money becuz I didn't go to D.C. A shame really.

But anyway, really amazing literary expression.

thnx for your input guys, a lot of people seem to be liking this one outside the forum as well, i was really trying to tap back into my earlier stuff and just keep it simple but still evoke the same honest emotions and reactions from people...i did this one in like 15 mins, i was on autopilot lol but i'm working on something new and i haven't forgotten the piece i was supposed to continue for those of you that are familiar with my work :dope:
