For...Me...For...You...For Song

For...Me...For...You...For Song

A Poem by Mark Mendoza

For...Me...For...You...For Song...

To make you smile,
Is to give myself one for awhile.
Selfish me,
Loves selfish you.

Some days...
A blue me rejects kisses,
Instead wishes,
To be enveloped by bitterness-
Another matter of Wholeness.
Where are you Joy,
Without Pain?

Sweet things written of the soul of sweet me,
Comes pouring fourth,
From this heavy hearted scene:

Your hair heals my wounds,
Your eyes are Truth,
Your skin touches my bones,
Your voices are novel songs,
Your laughs are my own,
Your heart beats as mine,
You dance with all my times,
Your tears release me,
Your smile disperses me,
To a place of ecstacy,
Your sadness sets me ablaze-
A burning fire in rain.
You-
Nature-
Awaken Everything,
As well as lull All to dream.
When you kiss me,
Existence is crystalized,

O! sweet fear,
You make heros in shadows.

Made anew-
Always in your essence.

a phenomenal write, Mark.
"selfish me
loves selfish you"
this season is a time for love and giving....and sometimes we also have to give something to ourselves.

two become one in this poem...and i love the use of the slant rhyme...there is certainly an essence
and presence felt here.

Hello Mark and I enjoyed the poem.
"Nature-
Awaken Everything,
As well as lull All to dream.
When you kiss me,
Existence is crystalized,"
