About Love (Spoken Word Poem)
The below is an excerpt from my new book: Speaking As A Man: Poetry & Prose. Available now at www.createspace.com/3369256. Available soon on www.amazon.com.
About Love (For the spoken word)
What is it about you
That makes me think about you all the time
That I can’t get you out of my mind
That my dreams feel cheap
Unless you occupy my sleep
What is about you
That whenever we embrace
I feel sad, knowing that it can’t last forever
Because I need other things
Like food, sleep, clothing and shelter
What is it about you
That when we’re together
Time moves much too fast
And when you’re gone
Every second is an unbearable eternity
As I drift aimlessly
Without purpose
With no destination in mind
And no place I want to be
Except…
With you
What is it about you?
What is it about love?

Yep, the power of "facts" on the internet. Ain't it grand? People take forwards as gospel. Do you all also believe that Barack Obama shouldn't be president because he's not an American citizen? It' says he's not on the internet!
I kinda wanted this…
