Poem #76

I need one hell of a story.
One hell of a love story.
I need it to be wild, irresponsible,
spontaneous, unpredictable.
I guess poets sometimes just can’t
settle for normal, settle for settling.

I don’t need it to be perfect, I need
it to be real in all of its flaws.
I need the screaming and the kissing
and the crying and the late night heavy breathing.

I need one hell of a story.
One hell of a love story to become my
ink, my inspiration, my new poem collection
because love without verses is such an ordinary
sad, sad feeling.

    Imagine life without a love story, what a boring life that would be. Even authors just always fix a love story into any of their tales. We live for the stories…we live for love.

    “Love without verses” is the best thing I’ve read in a long time.

    This is what I call hitting the nail on the head. The right words for love well experienced, expressed and explained. Good job!

    Come teach me French in all ways possible and all your missing stories will become the collection of words you’ve yet to write…having lived them deeply in your skin, heart and mind…

    I feel this one. I agree, it’s a need. It’s not a want. It’s not a hope. It’s not a desire. It’s a need. Beautiful.

    Every poem should have feeling or a message and yours certainly did. It sizzled with passion. x

    Only a love that is real is worth living or worth writing in verse.

    I love the direct way in your words … I am reminded of a novel by Paulo Coelho which is similar to your poem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleven_Minutes <3

    My favorite part:
    One hell of a love story to become my
    ink, my inspiration, my new poem collection
    because love without verses is such an ordinary
    sad, sad feeling.

    Oh we do get such great poetry out of these relationships don’t we?

    I am reminded of one I wrote about a relationship that was very much like you describe…
    We were watching a TV documentary on the plight of soldiers who were stranded in the ocean after the sinking of the USS Indianapolis, and I knew I was in trouble. I was desperately in love with a man I knew would sink me…
