My Two Loves I love two men, but so different they are One is my hero, one my falling star The first is so gentle and loving and bright The second, he never says anything right. One man in my life is witty and charming His eyes are seductive, his smile disarming His words are as sweet as strawberry wine He makes me so happy to call him mine. The other, he laughs and teases me so He says words in jest and lets them go He staggers around with a glazed look He counts on me to get him off the hook. With man number one the kisses are tender Man number two, who wants to remember The first, he speaks straight to my soul The second, I follow where he must go. The first man always mends my heart After the second has torn it apart He dries my tears and softens my cries After I’ve handled the second ones lies. So you must be asking why do I hold on To man number two when the first is so strong The answer sometimes fills me with shame I love them both… for they are one and the same. ------------------ Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind... |

no one is perfect...nice to see that in a poem...as everyone else seems to be searching for the "perfect love" these days |

Oh, How true! Huh, I don't think you can explain it any better than that. Well done! |

Once again..Thank You all...although my husband says I am more of the split personality than he, I had to write this for him! He helped me see that all of us carry two parts (or three or four), but the love is never less. (Or I should hope not!) |
