Imperfect Love
What were you thinking
when you decided
that your life was not worth living
that our love was not enough
to convince you
you meant the world
a thousand times over
words could never say how much
i needed you around
to remind me i was loved
to remind me to laugh
to remind me to live
each day of my life
with those i love
as if it were my last
chance to give
my heart away
to those who needed all the love inside
to say i love you
to those who needed to know
that someone knew
that they were worth something
looking back i wonder
was it you i forgot to show
just how deep
just how much
and exactly why
my love for you could never die
in my lifetime
nor in yours
for eternity
our hearts will fly
tied together
by the hands of God
who stomachs this forsaken world
for one reason
to show that love does conquer all
pain and suffering
life and death
and that it knows no season
so go ahead
fly for now
race with the angels
but remember me
when you look into the sun
or witness the birth of new worlds
remember that in an imperfect world
my imperfect love belonged to thee

who taught me to live
Well, good poet. By the way, when I feel uselee or worthless, then I will look around other life. I found those who suffer in hunger, poverty, insulted. Thus I must wake up from my worthless feeling then try to help them.
