Our kind of Love

stab me with your lies, then heal me with your kisses. because darling in your eyes, lies a universe full of promises.....

We probably aren’t meant to be, you and me.
With all the fighting and fussing,
and the making up after the break-up.
It insane,
when we start throwing blames,

I slap you hard across the face more and more,
 and you hit back with a walk out the door.
Hell, I keep crying not because you hurt me,
but because I fear you might not come back to me.
But you do, just as always,
and we both laugh and promise to mend our ways.
 My parents think you are a loser,
and your friends call me a know-it-all b***h,
But at the end of the day
we pour a drink and make love to the comments,
Because you are ‘my’ loser  and I am ‘your’ know-it-all b***h.
Even though I know how to push your buttons,
and you are very good at making me cry,
each time I swear to leave you,
 you vow to rather skin your balls than beg me back,
But then I don’t leave,
and you beg me to stay, anyways.
I know this is not healthy
 and there’s probably something else better out there for us,
But I am all that you have,
and you’re all this heart craves,
so after this fight, kiss me hard on a pouring rain
and tonight let’s fall in love all over again.

sonnie: Our kind of Love..the artwork was a huge A+ and every word was well expressed and oh so true. My favorite line is Because you are ‘my’ loser and I am ‘your’ know-it-all b***h. The poem is so raw and true and that's the way love goes. The more a parent says no, no, no - we tend to sway the other way and as we grow sometimes we are slaves to our emotions. I know this is not healthy...no, but we must find our way. I really enjoyed the raw truth of your words. Thanks. Dale

it's been a while Dale, thank you so much for your wonderful review. i guess we all secretly crave for someone we can be imperfect in front of and they still call as their own Thanks again ;)

I love the flow of this piece, almost the same go-stay-go-stay feel of the relationship. I think everyone has probably had one like this, where the intensity of the togetherness is worth the fighting and the pulling apart. It's incredibly destructive, and it will leave a mark, but you just have to do it anyway.

Sweet poison that we can't stopp sipping. Thanks for reading JR

Healthy or not. Love is our medicine.
"But then I don’t leave,
and you beg me to stay, anyways.
I know this is not healthy"
I told my kids. Live for passion, not money. Passion make you content. Money is just paper after a long empty life seeking gold and silver. Better to have loved and lost than to die alone. Thank you Sonnie for sharing the amazing poetry.
