Love luv lav

Love Love Love

King Saul fell on his sword
when it all went wrong
and Joseph’s brother sold him down the river
for a song
and Sonny Liston rubbed some tigerbalm
into his glove
some things you do for money
and some you do for love love love

Raskalnikov felt sick
but he couldn’t say why
when he saw his face reflected
in his victim’s twinkling eye
some things you do for money
and some you’ll do for fun
but the things you do for love
are gonna come back to you one by one

love love is gonna lead you by the hand
into a white and soundless place
now we see things
as in a mirror dimly
then we shall see each other
face to face

and way out in Seattle
young Kurt Cobain
snuck out to the greenhouse
put a bullet in his brain
snakes in the grass beneath our feet
rain in the clouds above
some moments last forever
and some flare out with love love love

Clearifying the gesture

Okay, I guess its time to clear up a little misconception. It seems that a few readers are confused as to why I'm doing this. I'm not having trouble moving on, I'm not holding onto something that is lost. I'm certainly not depressed. I don't need self help books on how to move on, and definitely do not need Prozac. I'm not even holding on to the hope that we will get back together. The one thing I hope to accomplish with this Grand Gesture, is to let the person know that I Love Her. Its like a project to me. Something that I thought of, feel would be a beautiful thing, and want to do. I want to share my love with the world. I want to get the word out and spread love and encouragement to anyone, and everyone who feels this way, has felt this way, or has given up on chivalry and love. All is not lost, Love is alive and well. It lives in all of us.
