Happy New Year!
dear talented Poet
just another, surgical
distillation
of such commonly experienced
woes and hurts,
words I relate with, on so many levels
simply: Brilliant!
confessional poetry,
I think Sylvia Plath, herself
would agree..
thank you! for choosing to share
loved these lines:
\'watching myself shave
in the dirty mirror,
where blood that we both
once shared drips into
the sink from a cut
on my chin
do you remember when
you wanted to prove
that i wasnāt your son\'..

So bittersweet that a man could judge his own flesh and blood on something so beautiful as love, love shouldn\'t be categorized it should be celebrated. This is a very heart felt piece full of emotion. āŗ

This is sad
Too sad
Why abandon once and then return
Isnāt it farce
Itās better to be known as child of heaven
Than to know some stranger as guardian
Very emotional write, dear poet

James Michael said:
It took a few reads for clarity on this one. Once again you have expressed your feelings about love incredibly well, a very hard thing to do for most of us. There are some words like āhousesā and āletsā that could be changed. Typos aināt nutten to worry about as long as you can project your emotions!

a more definitive ending
James Michael said:
Forgiveness is the key. A tender heart can be easily broken. Your honesty and insight into your emotions shows clearly in the depth of your poetry.
Enough psychobabble! This is a great poem my friend! Hoping things are going well for you.

An anthology possibly. The meaning of love for the ones who have touched your heart deeply.
Your poems always keep the reader fascinated, a true gift in my opinion. This one was worth the wait. Simply brilliant!

flowers, given in the Now
not allowing

at poisoning
a love, we once cherished:
till our heart\'s content...

Such profound and succinct words. Keep being recklessly in love, your heart will guide you.
Just read the previous comments by Sax and dusk. Itās good to know some people appreciate your work. The song is awesome too! Carry on my friend.

Written incredibly well in your unique style. The stats. are very real. More people should research the information you shared. I was aware of how grim those numbers are, but didnāt remember those percentages.
The movie I havenāt seen (āLove, Simonā). Iāll try to find it. Hopefully anyone reading this comment will do the same.
Hope youāre doing well my friend!

steps to survival
James Michael said:
A real wallop of a poem. Started out with words from many therapistsā mouths. Turning into the harshness of what is truly felt. Brilliantly nearly ending with āand you are aliveā x 3.
What is the point of living? To live, I believe. No matter how messy it gets!

So much intense introspection in this one. It was surely therapeutic.
Iām going through your work like a slot machine, canāt find any that I donāt like.

for the captain once again
James Michael said:
Your love for the captain shines once again. A person who has ridden the storms of the sea is an admirable person indeed. May the love you feel forever last.

for the captain once again
L. B. Mek said:
yes, there surely is dear poet!
thanks for sharing, and that muse of a captain
brings out the best in your subtly nuanced style
in my humble opinion..
liked these lines a lot:
\'a kind of magic imbued
in the way the captain
glances at the bard
with a twinkle in his eye
that hints at the star
he used to be,
when he sailed towards
a much closer horizon\'

one last time
James Michael said:
Ouch! Bitterness exudes from this one. Luckily you were able to get out of that relationship. Toxicity, unfortunately, will be part of love. It tends to give a sweeter taste to it when things are wonderful.

no beauty/no romance
James Michael said:
It gives me great relief to know that youāve recovered from those days. This poem is incredibly raw and written with a painful grip on the pen. Youāve conveyed true emotions so clearly. I believe this is what poetry should be. No muddling about with words to impress, no insincerity, just truth laid out on paper that comes straight from the heart.

an argument in support of foolishness in all matters of love
James Michael said:
Wow! Such a romantic tale incredibly well written. The title is succinct and well chosen. This one really shows your talent as a writer.
Iām starting to run out of your poems that I havenāt read before. Oh well, might as well read them again. āGotta do something, donāt we?ā A line from Rebel Without a Cause.

A very soothing reminder of how love should be. āafter all, every living thing needs some kind of constantā. That is what brings comfort and peace to our crazy lives. Knowing a beacon will be there for us.
Thanks for writing this wonderful poem.

hey there, captain
James Michael said:
I donāt see unrequited love in your tales of the captain, only an understanding that the bard and he share.
This one is very tender and heartwarming. No regrets in matters of the heart. āTis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.ā comes to mind.

This is simply beautiful
\'and there must be something holy
in the flour dusted on my black shirt\'
Such wonderful imagery

\'and you werenāt mine to love,
much less fall in love with
but, just the same,
thatās not something i can bring
myself to regret\'
Makes me cry a little bit as I\'m feeling something similar.

my lady of the ocean and the waves
James Michael said:
A gorgeous tale. The siren is an entrancing character. The sea captain is always a bit of a mystery to me. Usually I think of Johnny Deppās Jack Sparrow. A man born to the sea. Yours has more of a romantic side.

return to me, my love, again and again
James Michael said:
The captain will always belong to the sea. The lament over this will always haunt the bard. The fact the captain has shown the bard his love is exquisite in this story.
You are a gifted story teller. It would be interesting to read something more elaborate. Is there any need for that actually?
