    Love... Along the Way

    About this ebook

    Love Along The Way is about what happens when we realize that all that has happened in our past relationships is a prelude to our future loves. Sometimes tragic and sometimes fun, each poem builds on the intensity of missing what we want the mostto be loved. The poems are arranged in a natural progression from love to pain to missing to confusion about why we endure.

    There are different moods, cadences, emphases, and while each poem is about a unique and different experience the end is surprisingly the same. The uniqueness is in the body of works natural progression from the joys of meeting to the pleasures and pains of being "in love," to an absence of one's beloved and past loves.

    In the end, we tend to repeat the way we process how we seek others to affirm the best in each of us. Love Along The Way is a true anthology of love poetry.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      My mind pursues cooler spaces,

      And the safety of familiar embraces,

      I wither from the origin of you.

      My fingers are cracked and singed,

      As my brows are arched and cringed,

      I take in the radiant glow of you.

      My tongue licks to reveal,

      The tip of my lips will never heal,

      I am scorched from the warmth of your kiss.

      My present stands curled and detained,

      From the preview of my past aflame,

      I hide the hurts extracted
