make lots of love & not war


 

will you deal with
when i'm hard to deal with
when you kiss me
close your eyes & seal them
elude your feelings, to listen
even if it's, not worth the span of your attention
to reel in, or invest in my passions & obsessions
connect with my etceteras
& eclectic moments, of self indulgence
long enough to refocus
to propel your shoulders
when they're hunched over
with observant observations
giving you a once over, like gazing
noticing roses, when they're withering
& hearts becoming colder; shivering
aging, though not getting older
just getting over
the past, to let the present last longer
than the last ones who said
you were the wrong one for him
i'm stronger than them
my body of work, unearths comparisons
careless men, are embarrassments
juggled your heart
when they should've cherished it
though who am i suggesting such things
as if my motives & mind, at times, aren't just on one thing
for sure i'm trying to score
& make lots of love & not war
it's those wars that test our strengths & restraint  
is you is, or is you ain't
in it to win it, if we tear or if we break
mending begins when we're committed to stay  

                                       make lots of love & not war
