My Other Half

for all the heartache and pain

and thunder and rain and

aches that dissolved in the past



for all the hurt and confusion

and crazy delusions and

intentions that harshly clashed



for all the certainty and sureness,

hesistation and soreness and

resentment that pierced like a gaff



for all the fun times and laughter

and dreams we chased after and

spell of true love which was cast



for this very moment in time

i ask you to be mine

for the first time but not the last



for i'm one hundred and ten percent

sure that you're the only person

that completes my other half

I like this poem. It is full human desire, to give all you have for love.. and when it comes to the heart do any of us really have a choice?

In a world that is filled with an overabundance of choice.
It can be easy to change,
to give up
to give into the

" hurt and confusion
and crazy delusions "

I understand what you have written, it is a universal theme.
It strikes a chord, I can't say how good it is, nor can I choose between possible renderings.

All I know is I like it as a man, I like it as a poet, it has its own aesthetic — and it is an easy read.

Peace
Dylan
