My Love

Matthew Henrickson Poetry

Broken Heart Bandaid

My Love

My love is shy, as it’s been hurt before
My heart has been broken piece by piece
But pulls together
To love again.

My love is unique, it takes care of everything
No matter the problem
My love is there
To fix it everything.

My love is sensitive
It hates doing all the work
One sided love
May be the worst pain of all.

My love is looking for a lover
To reciprocate loves fate
To come together and change
My love, into our love.

A Woman’s Love by Steve Harvey

Quotes

It’s not a poem, but I think it’s pretty poetic. A woman’s love, maybe that’s what I’m missing.

Nothing on this planet can compare with a woman’s love–it is kind and compassionate, patient and nurturing, generous and sweet and unconditional. Pure. If you are her man, she will walk on water and through a mountain for you, too, no matter how you’ve acted out, no matter what crazy thing you’ve done, no matter the time or demand. If you are her man, she will talk to you until there just aren’t any more words left to say, encourage you when you’re at rock bottom and think there just isn’t any way out, hold you in her arms when you’re sick, and laugh with you when you’re up. And if you’re her man and that woman loves you–I mean really loves you?– she will shine you up when you’re dusty, encourage you when you’re down, defend you even when she’s not so sure you were right, and hang on your every word, even when you’re not saying anything worth listening to. And no matter what you do, no matter how many times her friends say you’re no good, no matter how many times you slam the door on the relationship, she will give you her very best and then some, and keep right on trying to win over your heart, even when you act like everything she’s done to convince you she’s The One just isn’t good enough.

That’s a woman’s love — it stands the test of time, logic, and all circumstance.

– by Steve Harvey in Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man Book

Well if you put it that way, I don’t think I’ve felt a woman’s love for a really long time. 🙁

Only For You

Matthew Henrickson Poetry

The worst is I take all of this time thinking about you and writing poetry about you, and it doesn’t seem to matter. Only for you, but does it matter?

Only For You

The words don’t matter
They never change
The time doesn’t matter
It’s never the same
The day doesn’t count
Because I never check the date
Regardless of the location
I love you the same
Throw away my money
I’ll make you more
Throw away my food
I’ll cook you more
Throw away my watch
I’ll turn back the clock
Throw away the rules
I’ll find a way to break them
Throw away our love
But I’ll never stop

Poisoned Love

Matthew Henrickson Poetry

This was an interesting poem that I wrote. It was all in one flow, no edits. I hate editing…

“Poisoned Love” 

Your forbidden kiss
like poison to my lips.
Diseasing my heart
Infecting me as we part.
Your love so sweet
Without it I’m incomplete.
I risk death to be in your arms
and to feel your love.
Being with you hurts my heart
and stings my soul
but it would be even worse without you.
I need to feel your love.
I need your love to continue.
I need to be plagued by your kiss
and held in your arms.
Keeping me alive
Is that poison
That starting killing me
In the beginning.

A Piece of My Love

Matthew Henrickson Poetry

“A Piece of my Love”

No strings attached
Ill give you love tonight
Even if we don’t love each other
Magic on our fingertips
Sweetness on our tender lips
Passion with each breath we take
I know tonight will be a special night
Feeling ecstasy before you touch me
Just by having you by my side
Hearing your heart beat
And feeling you quiver at my touch
Tonight will last always in my memory
Giving you a piece of my love
Of my heart
A piece of me
Tonight
