I wish my quirkish
wasn't so irksome

I'm too complicated
being from Venus
when men are from
somewhere else

Be it Mars
or the Moon …
It matters not
so much the where
as the where not

Not from a walk in
anywhere near
my shoes

My loud words
fall on deaf ears
that I shout at
habitually

Too many  full moons
have come and gone
unconsummated

Leaving me to wonder
why
the simple things
that mean so much
to me
are forgotten trivials

Despite the fact
I don't ask for much
I require little of things
What I desire most
of all possessions
is your undivided
attention

We are men, you are woman, I guess that is all that can be said, although a few of us do try to listen.

Being bold and presenting your desire, in a verbal manner, can make a deference.
Being that I'm from Mars, I can say martians are very simple souls, just say what you mean and mean what you say, and don't be...mean;
ya know what I mean?

Love your heartfelt words.
Very nice poetry!!

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.
Maranatha!

Being from venus I know just what you mean...understanding men are few and far between these days but I believe they are out there with the same desires as we have...*BIG HUGS*

*may our dreams ever be magical*

Jerry, JL & Startime: I know what you all are saying is true. But what happened to that lover in him that didn't need told what to do?
