    A Million Ways to say I Love You

    Where Do You and I Begin

    Love Drug

    when I first saw you in September
    a date that I will always remember
    I knew then on that date
    I had truly met my fate.

    for I knew I had fallen under your spell
    you had cast a mad love spell on me
    your mojo was working overtime on me
    and I would be forever your love slave.

    for I had to have you had to make you mine
    for you were everything I longed for
    everything I was dreaming of
    you were my everything.

    Chorus

    You were my love bug
    you were my love connection
    you were my love drug
    you were my everything.

    my foolish love bugs.

    when you walked off that bus
    you entered my life
    and soon became my wife
    and everything changed.

    from that moment on
    I was you
    and you were me
    just the way it should be,

    It was 39 years since you walked
    Into my life,
    turning it inside out
    tearing it upside down.

    and for 39 years together
    every single day, every hour, every minute
    every single-second whenever I look at you
    I fell madly in love again and again and again.

    just the way it is
    between you and me
    for you are my love angel
    sent to rescue me.

    Chorus

    You were my love bug
    you were my love connection
    you were my love drug
    you were my everything.

    my foolish love connection,

    when I first saw you there
    your cosmic love vibrations
    sent me flying to the moon
    to Jupiter and beyond.

    flying on the back
    of your love
    returning me once more
    to your waiting embrace.

    your love came me such a thrill
    the thrill has never ended
    like a fine bottle of wine
    it gets better and better.

    I can no longer imagine
    A life without you by my side
    And if you go before I do
    I will surely soon follow you.

    When we met that cosmic date
    I knew that I had met my soul mate
    And soon we would be together
    Until the end of time.

    Chorus

    You were my love bug
    you were my love connection
    you were my love drug
    you were my everything

    my lovely love drugs

    you were my love drug
    I did not need any other

    With your love by my side
    I did not need alcohol
    I did not need acid
    I did not need booze

    I do not need Cialis
    I did not need cocaine
    I did not need heroin
    I did not need magic mushrooms

    I did not need speed
    I did not need Viagra
    for you were all that I ever needed
    you were indeed my love drug

    Chorus

    You were my love bug
    you were my love connection
    you were my love drug
    you were my everything

    my everything

    Request for collaboration

    This is my second attempt at writing a love song. For my musician friends out there, if you like it and would like to collaborate to turn this into a real song instant message me, and let’s talk. To the rest of you, hope you enjoyed it.

    Love Jones Original Version

    I got the Love Jones, baby
    And it won’t leave me alone

    I got the Love Jones, baby
    And it won’t leave me alone

    I’ve been writing these love poems
    All-day long

    And I have been dreaming
    Of all the ways I could make love
    To my secret lover

    If only she will let me be

    If only she will open her heart
    And let me in

    Perhaps the love Jones
    Might leave me along

    But I got the love Jones
    Bad baby

    Can’t you tell?
    That the love Jones
    Has grabbed my Soul

    Twisted it up into little pieces
    And I need you
    To unravel the Love Jones

    I need you to answer the call
    Of the Love Jones Baby

    I need you
    To let me be free

    Of the spell
    Of the Love Jones

    I got the Love Jones
    Baby

    I got it bad
    And only you can
    Put a stop to the love Jones
    Baby

    Let me enter your life
    Put out the fire of desire

    Send the Love Jones packing
    And let me make sweet love to you

    Oh, Love Jones
    Go away

    Let me be in peace

    Love Jones
    Leave me be

    Baby
    I got the love Jones
    For you

    Can’t you see?
    What do you do to me?

    I got the Love Jones
    Baby and it ain’t going away

    Until I get to make love to you

    Then perhaps this Love Jones
    Will leave me be

    I got the love Jones
    For you
    Can’t you see?
    What do you do to me?

    I got the Love Jones
    Baby and it ain’t going away
    Until I get to make love to you
    Then perhaps this Love Jones
    Will leave me be

    My Wife is My Passion

    My passion is life, itself
    I love my wife
    The love of my life

    She fills my heart
    With red-hot passion
    Ever since we met

    She has been
    My inspiration
    My soul mates
    My passion never fades

    Please Give me a Kiss New Years Love Poem

    Please said
    The maiden
    On New Year’s,
    To her new lover
    It is time
    To welcome
    The new years
    Please give me
    A French kiss,
    She said
    Putting down her glass
    Of champagne
    The man
    Glanced at his companion
    Flustered a bit
    Grimaced,
    Called for a taxi
    As the Fireworks,
    Went off
    He twirled his red
    Mustache,
    She sulked off
    With a big caterwaul
    Filled with disappointment

    Caterwaul- make a shrill howling or wailing noise like that of a cat (just noticed that autocorrect created a made-up word)

    On a Fine Date in September, a Date I will Always Remember

    On a fine day in September, a date I shalll always remember
    she came into my life
    A date I shall always remember
    a few months later she became my wife
    when I met her, I ended my wildlife
    for on that fine Autumn date
    I truly met my soul mate.

    Love etheree Revised

    hot
    coffee
    in the morn
    great start today
    filling me with joy
    contemplating the news
    drinking morning cup of Joe
    thinking about my life and love
    waiting for the love of my life to wake up
    when she wakes up, she fills me with such love.
    she talks to me my day begins to fill
    with plans and many things, we must do
    I smile and finish my drink
    Still in awe of her beauty,
    Still just madly in love.
    Ever since we met
    just wondering
    how I met
    her that
    day.

    Drinking Coffee is My Delight Coffee

    coffee

    drinking coffee is my morning delight

    as I drink my coffee I must write
    reflecting upon what has become my life
    enjoying every morning I am with my wife
    no longer filled with so much strife

    I am filled with love for my oldwife
    Truly a dream woman come to life
    enjoying my love during this midlife
    no longer filled with so much strife

    feeling so much that is my birthright
    knowing that with her love everything is alright.
    no longer lost in despair and lowlife

    knowing with her love this is real life
    no longer filled with fear and affright
    no longer filled with so much strife

    My Love is as

    My love is like a bright
    Red rose to bloom in a field
    Filling the air
    with its sweet perfume of love

    My love is like a bright tomato
    Filling my plate
    with delightful flavors

    My love is a hummingbird
    Fluttering here and there
    Spreading love along the way

    My love is like an apple
    Filling the air
    With its sweet fragrance
    And filling me with love

    My love is like a race car
    Waiting for me to go with her
    Exploring the world together

    My wife is like a glass
    Of the most delicious red wine
    As it ages it gets better and better

    My wife is bright red
    Filled with passionate
    And inciting desire

    My wife smells
    Like the greatest perfume
    Ever created
    So mysterious and alluring
    In her fragrance of desire.

    My wife is like the best dessert
    That I have ever had
    So sweet, so delicious
    And all for me.

    My wife and I speak
    Our language
    A mixture of English, Korean
    Spanish mixed
    Filled with love
    And special meanings.

    Decorating my Space with memories of Love

    I have lived
    All over the world
    In many different spaces
    Many different places
    Many different towns
    Many different cities
    Many different apartments

    Many different living arrangements
    And each time I decorate
    My internal space

    My home
    It is different
    My house is always
    A mixture of things
    Knickknacks from around
    The world
    Filled with items
    That is filled with memories
    Of my and mine wife’s past

    As I look at my things
    I am comforted
    Memories of the past

    Fill my mind
    With love, peace
    And contentment.

    Drinking Coffee is My Delight Coffee

    Close up coffee cup with heart latte art on table
    Close up white coffee cup with heart shape latte art on wood table at cafe.

    drinking coffee is my delight
    as I sit and do my morning write
    I sit thinking about my wife

     

     

     

     

     

    wondering yet again is that my fate
    on that day was that the date?

    I think back on my life
    drinking coffee in the morning
    with my lovely wife

    drinking coffee in the morning
    with my lovely wife
    the love of my life

    drinking coffee makes a great midmorning
    as I sit there with her enjoying a good morning.

    the morning after enjoying the nightlife
    drinking coffee in the morning
    with my lovely wife.

    but soon my head is filled with warning
    as if my head had been struck with a knife
    my body and head having a hangover strife.

    nothing more than a just forewarning
    the end of the day filled with mourning
    with my lovely wife.

    Sam Adams Met Her on That Date

    Sam Adams met her on that date
    that day she came into his life.

    when he first saw her that morning
    Truly he thought it was just fate
    he knew she would become his wife.

    Meeting her was a great morning
    he knew that she was his soulmate
    he knew there would be no more strife
    every day would be a good morning

    Thankful for his Angel
    Every day
    He woke up
    And sees his wife
    Sleeping peacefully.

    He looks at her
    In the dawning light
    Filling his soul
    With her love.
    He drinks his coffee

    Contemplating his life
    Ever thankful
    For the angel

    That came to him
    Out of his dreams

    Walking into his life
    Taking charge of him
    39 years ago

    He met his fate
    On that date.

    It was the beginning of the End

    It was the beginning
    Of the end 0f his life
    As a young adult
    Adrift in life’s turmoil.

    He met the love of his life
    In a dream
    Then when she walked
    Out of his dreams
    Into his life

    He felt
    That his life
    Truly had begun.
    And it was the end
    Of his life adrift

    Now he had the purpose
    Now he had hope

    As he walked
    With his life’s partner
    Facing whatever life
    Threw his way

    Going together
    As always
    Becoming one soul
    Eternal soul mates.

    I found what I was looking for.

    Based on Edgar Allen Poe’s Poem Alone
    From the Streets of Berkeley, California
    Cosmos was my middle name
    Has been my pen name now for ten years
    Infatuation with Cosmic things
    Has filled my heart and soul
    Nothing more than searching for love
    But in the end, I found what I was looking for.

    Today is a special day

    Today is a special day
    Like most mornings
    I wake up

    Drink my coffee
    Watch the news
    Think about the day

    Waiting for my wife
    To walk into the room
    Lighting the room

    With her love
    And that is why
    It is always
    Such a special day

    My Wife and I Like It Raw

    My wife
    And I like it raw
    Raw food that is

    Less cooking is better
    For one’s health.

    We start our day
    With raw ingredients
    Blended perfectly together.

    Often for lunch
    Or dinner
    We have a raw food salad.

    And sometimes
    Well, we do other things
    Raw and naked.

    Lucky in Love

     

    Indian casino Fun
    Indian casino Fun

     

     

     

     

    They say
    That once can be lucky
    In cards or love

    But not in both
    I have been
    very lucky

    In love
    Met and married
    The lady of my dreams

    But for cards
    And gambling
    I have not been
    So lucky

    Losing far more
    Than I ever won
    But the luck

    In love
    Continues to this day.

    Truly Romantic Honeymoon

    Unshaven, idiotic,
    Insupportable Introvert
    Her lifelong secret admirer
    Laughing, she said yes
    They both Reconnoiter
    A Truly Romantic
    Honeymoon place

    What Makes People a Success

    They say
    That is what makes a person successful
    Is not how much money they have
    Is not how many things they have
    But rather how many true friends
    They have
    And whether they have found
    Their soul mates.

    In my case,
    I am successful
    Beyond my earlier expectations
    Becoming wealthy in my old age.

    But most importantly
    After 39 years together,
    I am still madly in love
    With my eternal soul mate

    Why am I still madly in love with you, my dear?

    Why do I still look at you with such love in my heart?
    Why did you enter my life 39 years ago?
    Why did you overwhelm me with your love?
    I do not have any answers
    Other than I will love you
    Until the end of time itself.

    Seeing Your Love

    Whenever I touch you, my dear,
    I see red flames of love
    Like a red hot volcano of molten desire
    Erupting from you.

    Whenever I hear your voice
    The sweet scent
    Of hibiscus, lavender, lemon, oranges,
    roses, and wildflowers
    overwhelms me with
    the fragrance of your love.

    Whenever I kiss you, my dear
    I hear the voices of angels
    Singing in my ear
    Hosannas to your love,

    As I am transported
    On the wings of angels
    To heaven itself,
    Powered by your love.

    Love My Wife More

    Every day tell her
    My love for her grows daily
    Love will never die

    Where Do I and You Begin?

    I woke up one day and realized
    I no longer knew
    where you and I began

    and where you and I ended
    we had become almost one

    We talked in half sentences
    Knowing what the other wanted
    and knowing how it would end

    We ate the same foods with some resistance
    because I still crave an old-fashioned American meal
    but still, we were becoming more and more the same

    and I feared losing myself
    In your embrace
    and becoming you
    and you becoming me

    and this fear of losing me
    in the ocean of us
    overwhelms me at times

    but I know I will always
    Return to your arms

    because I cannot live
    A moment without you at my side

    and I know you are the same
    we feel each other’s inner pain
    we feel each other’s outer pain

    and our history has merged
    into one

    and is that not the secret
    of a long marriage?

    Have I figured it all out
    in the end, does it come to this
    a merging of two souls and two bodies?

    I don’t have the answers
    But I don’t have any more doubts
    or regrets with the path I have taken

    I still look forward
    to waking up each morning

    Seeing you there
    and knowing that every day
    we have together
    is a gift that I will cherish

    Until my dying breath

    5-7-5  Love Poem

    Missing you missing me
    Dreaming about you, do you dream the same
    Will love you until end of time; will you remember me then?

    Chains that Bind Us

    I realize that my love for you
    Is like a chain of steel
    Unbreakable,
    Tough as nails
    and yet as your love entangles me
    I realize that I embrace my imprisonment
    and don’t want to venture out of my cell
    Made of our years together
    bit by bit we have become entangled
    Where I end and you begin
    Hopelessly entangled
    Even if I wanted to break free
    I could not
    For I am you and you are me
    and my fate is in your hands
    and so I relax
    and decide to just
    Enjoy the ride of my life
    as we move towards the final moments
    together as we have always been
    Inseparable, merged into one being
    Starting at each other
    wondering who is that person
    Of eternal mystery
    That has so captured my soul
    and imprisoned it in her love
    And I smile thinking of your love
    and the endless pleasure it has brought me
    and the endless pain I have endured
    Just to be next to you
    and part of you
    Until the day I die
    and we meet in the next world

    What Is Love Explained to a Space Alien

    one day
    a space ship landed
    near my house
    and a tall alien
    dressed is silver
    accompanied by three shorter aliens
    came to my house
    and told me they were
    conducting a survey
    of the earth
    and had some questions of me
    they had picked me
    because I was considered
    a subject matter expert

    a subject matter expert
    on the topic of love
    which was one
    of the five things
    that they could not understand
    about humanity
    no one else
    among the 1 million intelligent species
    had such a concept
    I asked what were the other things
    that they did not understand
    they said
    hmm Donald Trump

    hmm Donald Trump
    how and why he is President
    and why so many people
    still support him
    second is god
    your race has more gods
    than any other race
    and no one else
    has heard of your god
    or Allah or Jesus for that matter
    and on the face of it
    the whole resurrection thing
    makes no sense

    makes no sense
    third is gun violence
    why in the US
    you have to do a strip search
    to get on the plane or train
    and now a days a temperature heath screening
    yet you can not ban guns
    can not enact universal gun checks
    even though 90 % support it
    and why can terrorists
    still can buy guns?
    fourth climate change
    every other successful culture

    every other successful culture
    went through something similar
    and evolve their politics and culture
    and overcame it
    and finally the issue of love
    you see in the whole universe
    there is no such concept
    of romantic love
    in most cultures there are marriages
    and most people are bisexual
    and group marriages are the norm
    and love is seen as merely sexual attraction
    and most people pick their partners
    from computer generated links

    From computer generated links
    for we have figured it all out
    but you persist in denying
    that love is nothing but
    a chemical DNA thing
    explain to me
    since you are considered
    the most romantic man
    in the world
    what the hell is love?
    I told him that we would discuss
    the other issues later over a beer
    as I was hardly the authority
    but would be happy to share my thoughts

    but would be happy to share my thoughts
    and they agreed to that
    but said again
    tell us what is this thing
    you called love
    I said
    it comes down to this
    Love is mysterious
    love is magic
    there is a certain zen element
    zen element
    to love

    to love
    a certain taoist element as well
    to it as well
    those who can define it
    have never experienced it
    and those who have experienced it
    can never describe it
    one can say a few things
    love happens
    when you least expect it
    love creeps up on you
    Love happens
    when you are washing dishes
    drinking wine

    drinking wine
    dancing at a club
    making love
    for the first time
    or the 10, 000th time
    and every time
    is different
    than the time before
    love happens when you give up
    searching for love
    waiting for love
    wishing for love
    wishing for the one

    then one day
    the one walks out
    of your dreams
    and into your life
    becoming your wife
    my wife one day
    was berating me
    for all my myriad faults
    all my sins against her
    my omissions and commissions
    malfeasance and misfeasance
    things I had done
    and things i had failed to do

    and things I had failed to do
    all of which I acknowledge
    and apologized for
    but finally I had enough
    I said
    well if I am so bad
    so horrible
    so evil a creature
    and a person you hate
    so much
    why the hell did you marry me
    she laughed
    temporarly insanity

    temporarly insanity
    and I am still insane
    twenty five years later
    we both laughed
    and fell in love
    again
    as always
    we fall in love
    with each other
    every day
    every moment
    every second

    every second
    it dawned on me
    I had the answer to the question
    and that my friends
    is the true unknowable madness
    the true zen spirit of love
    well that was interesting
    and I think we begin
    to understand you all
    a bit more
    you are indeed
    the most interesting people
    in the whole universe
    so lets go out and have a beer

    so lets go out and have a beer
    we are dying to try that
    as we hear
    you have the best beer
    in the universe
    and the best coffee too
    and so we went
    and had our beer
    and coffee
    and talked all night long
    discussing everything
    they told me about the universe
    and our place in it
    and their plans for us

    The Story of How We Met

    It all began in Berkeley, California
    In the spring time of 1974

    One fateful afternoon
    I was dozing in my high school
    Physics class.

    I looked up and saw
    A tall, beautiful Asian women
    standing looking at me.

    I screamed out,
    Who are you?

    She disappeared
    like she was beamed away from my dream.

    I knew that someday I would meet the girl
    In the dream

    Little did I know
    I would have to wait until 1982

    Starting that month
    I began having the same dream
    Month and month and month.

    Always the same.
    She was saying something
    To me in a strange language.

    Then one day I had the dream
    and knew that she was in Korea.

    So I chose to go Korea
    In the Peace Corps,

    Somehow knowing
    That I would meet her there.

    One day I was in a foul mood.
    I had decided to give up on dating Korean women,
    And on women in general

    After having had several relationships
    That did not go anywhere.

    I was thinking of returning to the States
    For Graduate school.

    That morning early in the morning
    I had the last of these dreams.

    This time I understood her.
    She said, “Don’t worry.
    We’ll meet soon.”

    That evening
    As I was getting off the bus
    To go to my class
    I saw getting off the bus
    The girl in my dream.

    It was she!
    I was speechless.
    I did not know what to do.

    Over the course of the evening
    I ran into her several times.
    Finally I was introduced to her.

    I muttered some lame excuse
    About wanting to find a Korean tutor,
    and got her number.

    The next day she came to the gate of my base.
    Where I was teaching ESL to Koreans

    She said that she had to speak with me.
    I told to wait in the library for about an hour,
    and I would cancel class
    and meet her then.

    We went out for coffee.
    She told me that she was madly
    in love with me

    And simply had to have me.

    I told her I felt the same way.
    I proposed five days later,
    And got married one month later.

    Does she believe this story?
    She claims she does not believe it
    Because it is impossible to be true.

    But I know that there are other worlds
    And other times.

    In a past life we must have been together somehow.
    And our love was so strong
    That it crossed over the barrier of past lives.

    She found me in 1974,
    But it took until 1982
    For us to actually meet.

    And it has been 26 years
    Since we met in the physical sphere
    Or 37 years since the dream began

    And I still recall the dream
    And meeting her

    I had no choice
    When I met her

    We were fated to be together
    Until the end of this lifetime
    And the next and the next

    a million ways to say I love you

    They say
    There are a million ways
    To say I love you

    In this day and age
    I could only find
    In my computer’s brain
    The words to say I love you
    In 53 languages of the 10,000 languages
    Spoken on this planet

    Someday I may be able
    To say the simple words
    I love you
    In all know languages
    This will have to suffice for a start

    So I will say it
    Loud, and clear
    Just so you understand:

    ode to love on valetine’s day

    Ever since I met you, my dear
    My life has not been the same

    Before I found you
    I was lost, sad and lonely
    Going nowhere as fast as possible

    I was stuck
    Did not know what direction to pursue
    At the intersection, watching life go by

    I was lost, lonely and full of despair
    Then one day I saw you

    The girl of my dream
    Standing there on the side of the road

    I was filled with terror
    Could not speak

    What if you refused to see me
    What if you denied my protestations of love

    What if you walked away
    Never to be seen again

    I knew I had to do something
    I had to do it then and there

    And then you came up to me…
    Your voice

    The voice of an Angel
    Sweat, full of light

    Fun and entire sunshine

    Ever since the day I met you
    Whenever I feel down and depressed
    I look at your picture

    And sunshine fills my heart
    And I am confident, happy and ready

    To face all of life’s travails
    As long as I have your love
    And your support

    I can overcome all obstacles
    And face all dangers

    Together we can do most anything

    Without you I will be lost
    In the swamp of despair

    So my dear
    Please stay with me
    Forever to the end of time

    Let us journey forward
    Never looking back
    My love, my life

    The sun in the sky
    The moon that lights my dreams at night
    The stars that beacon far away

    Thanks to the Gods above
    For bringing you into my life

    And I promise I will love you
    Forever and a day

    Just to see your face
    Is heaven itself

    Just to hear your voice
    Is all I ever need

    My love, my soul mate
    Hurry back to me

    We have so much loving to do
    So much living to do
    So much to do together

    Walking confidently
    Boldly into the future

    Without you
    All is nothing
    But dust

    With you
    Everything is possible

    My love
    Until I see you again
    A thousand kisses

    And a million thoughts of love
    That will have to suffice
    Until we are reunited

    My love, my darling,
    My life and dreams

    Hurry back to rescue me
    From the despair and darkness
    All around me

    Until then
    I salute you

    Oh Queen of my Heart
    General of Love
    Captain of my Soul

    I Still Want You

    I still Want You<
    More than anything else in life
    I want you
    I want you next to me

    I want you every moment
    Of every minute
    Of every day

    I need you in my life
    I need your wisdom
    I need your kindness
    I need your beauty

    I need your special wit
    And I need your ability
    To deal with this cruel world

    I need you to save me
    From the demons
    That haunt my Soul

    For you are my soul mate
    The only person

    Whoever completed me
    And made life worth living,

    Ever since I met you, my dear
    My life has not been the same

    I was lost, sad and lonely

    At the intersection, watching life go by

    Then one day I saw you

    that day
    she became his wife

     

    on their marriage date
    they went to a bar for a date

    drank all night like in a dream
    ending up kissing
    up a storm

    until they were driven out
    the bar owner kicked them out
    saying that was not the place

    they laughed saying it was fate
    it was a good start
    and that was the start

    of their fate
    their first real date

    Walking Towards Enlightenment in the Woods with My Wife

    peace forrest
    peace forrest

    every day
    I take a long walk

    through the park
    behind my house

    and over the mountain
    and back I roam

    as I walk
    my thoughts flow

     

    and my love grows
    and I move ever closer

    to achieving inner peace
    with every path

    I take
    closer to the end

    of my life
    as I walk through the woods

    thinking of what may be
    and what was in the past

    and whither am i going
    where is the end

    of this long journey
    as long as I have

    the love of my life
    by my side

    I will fear nothing
    But walk

    into my fate
    be that as it may be

    Zen of Love Valentine

    zen of love
    zen of love

    Love comes when you least expect it
    Often when you have given up

    love happens when you
    are washing dishes

    or taking a walk
    in the woods

     

    or watching the sun rise
    after drinking and talking all night long

    Very mysterious indeed
    that’s the Zen of love

    Love comes out to play
    Every day I see your love

    Timeless love affair
    In fact our love conquered the world

     

    My Love Came to Me

    lovers in the moon light

    then walked into life

    I wake up with your deep love
    my fears go away

    Love Cherita -I Married the Girl of My Dreams

    lovers kissing 2
    lovers kissing 2

    I married the girl of my dreams

    First dreamt of her
    Back in 1974

    Eight years later
    she walked off a bus
    and into my life

    It All Began in Berkeley, California

    It All Began in Berkeley, California

    in the spring time of 1974
    one fateful afternoon

    I was nodding off
    in my high school physics class
    And saw her in my dream

    I Looked Up

    I looked up

    and saw a tall, beautiful Asian woman
    standing looking at me

    She was the most beautiful women
    in the universe to me
    I screamed out, who are you?

    She Disappeared

    She Disappeared

    like she was beamed
    away from my dream

    I knew that moment that someday
    I would meet the girl
    In the dream

     

    Little Did I Know

    Little Did I Know

    I would have to wait
    eight long years

    Until 1982
    to meet her in reality
    when she walked off that bus

    Starting that month

    Starting that month

    I began having the same dream
    Month and month and month

    Always the Same Dream
    She was saying something
    in a strange language

    Then one day

    then one day

    I had the dream
    and knew that she was in Korea

    I Knew She Was Waiting for Me
    I chose to go Korea
    In the Peace Corps

    Somehow knowing

    somehow knowing

    That I would meet her there
    and I looked for her there

    for three years
    I looked everywhere
    and never found her

    One Day I Had the Last Dream

    One day I had the last dream

    It happened in the morning
    A year after the Peace Corps ended

    A month before I planned
    to leave to return
    to the U.S. for graduate school

    That Morning Early in the Morning

    That morning early in the morning
    I had the last of these dreams

    This time I understood her
    She said,

    “걱정 마. 우리는 곧 만날 것이다. ”
    “geogjeongma. ulineun god mannal geos-ida.
    “Don’t worry.   We’ll meet soon.”

    I Was Born Again That evening

    I Was Born Again that evening

    As I was getting off the bus
    To go to my class

    I saw getting off the bus
    The girl in my dream
    It was she!

    I was Speechless

    I was speechless

    I did not know what to do
    Wanted to tell her

    How could I tell her that
    Hey, you are the girl
    I have been dreaming about

    Over the Course of the Evening

    Over the course of the evening

    I ran into her several times
    Finally, I was introduced to her

    I muttered some lame excuse
    About wanting to find a Korean tutor
    and got her number.

    My New Life Began the Next Day

    My new life began the next day

    The next day she came to the gate
    Of my base where I was teaching

    She said that she had to speak with me
    I told to wait in the library
    for about an hour

    I Would Cancel Class

    I would cancel class

    and meet her then
    We went out for coffee

    She told me that she was madly
    in love with me
    And simply had to have me

    I Told Her I Felt the Same Way

    I told her I felt the same way

    I proposed five days later
    And got married one month later

    Does she believe this story?
    She claims she does not believe it
    Because it is impossible to be true

    But I Know That There Are Other Worlds

    But I Know That There Are Other Worlds

    In a past life we must have been together
    somehow our love was so strong

    That it crossed over
    the barrier of past lives
    finding me in this life

    She found me in 1974

    She Found Me In 1974

    But it took until 1982
    For us to actually meet

    And it has been 35 years
    Since we met in the physical sphere
    Or 43 years since the dream began

    And I still recall the dream

    and I still recall the dream

    I had no choice
    when  I met her

    we were fated
    to be together
    until the end of time

    End Dream Cherita

    There is nothing more to be said

    Nothing more I can add
    Nothing more than this

    I will love you
    Until the end of time itself
    and death does us part

    A Message for You

    A message for you

    Love comes with the sunrise
    a message from God himself

     

    from the universe itself
    in the eastern sea
    Showering love rainbows upon you

    Love Endures

    the longer I live
    the more I learn

    that nothing endures in life
    other than the love
    I share with you

    In 62 years around the sun

    I have learned a few things
    About life and the universe

    The most important thing in life
    Is to have a successful love life
    That is all one needs after all

    Waking up seeing you there
    Watching you as you wake up
    Fills me with such sweet desire
    Overcoming my mind

    I sit watching you all day
    Thinking of you all day long
    Wild erotic imaginings

    Love making to come
    That old blues song come to mind
    I just want to make love to you
    I just want to make love to you
    Nothing more than that that

    I end this morning with this thought
    You are still the most wonderful
    The most beautiful creature
    In the whole universe

    a wild man sits in a gilded cage

    man in gilded Cage
    man in cage

    a wild man sits in a gilded cage
    a cage made out of chains of his wife’s love

    a cage made out of chains of his wife’s love
    the wild man yearning to be free from his cage

     

    the wild man yearning to be free from his cage
    wondering how and why he was now tamed

    wondering how and why he was now tamed
    dreaming dark wild dreams of demented freedom

    dreaming dark wild dreams of demented freedom
    the wild man looks about his prison cage

    the wild man looks about his prison cage
    wondering whether he will ever be free

    wondering whether he will ever be free
    a wild man sits in a gilded cage

     

    Chains That Bind Us

    chains
    chains

    I realize that my love for you
    Is like a chain of steel
    Unbreakable,

    Tough as nails
    Yet as your love entangles me
    I realize that I must
    embrace my imprisonment

    Don’t want to venture out of my cell
    Made of our years together
    put together bit by bit

    We have become entangled
    Where I end, and you begin
    Hopelessly entangled

    Even if I wanted to break free
    I could not
    For I am you and you are me

    My fate is in your hands
    Decide to Just enjoy
    The ride of my life

    As we move
    Towards the final moments
    Together as we have always been

    Inseparable, merged into one being
    Staring at each other
    Wondering who is that Person

    Of eternal mystery
    That has so captured my soul
    And imprisoned it in her love

    I smile thinking of your love
    The endless pleasure it has brought me
    The endless pain I have endured

    Just to be next to you, part of you
    and you Part of me until the day I die
    and we meet in the next world

    Where Do I and You Begin

    lovers at sunset
    lovers at sunset

    I woke up one day
    Realized, I no longer knew

    Where you and I began
    Where you and I ended

    We had become almost one
    We talked in half sentences

    Knowing what the other wanted
    Knowing how it would end

    We were becoming
    more and more the same

    I feared losing myself
    In your embrace

    Becoming you
    You becoming me

    This fear of losing me
    In the ocean of us

    Overwhelms me at times
    But I know I will always

    Return to your arms
    Because I cannot live

    A second, a minute, an hour, a moment
    Without you at my side

    I know you are the same
    we feel each other’s inner pain

    We feel each other’s outer pain
    we read each other’s mind

    Our history has merged
    Into one

    Is that not the secret
    Of a long marriage?

    Have I figured
    it all out in the end?

    Does it come to this?
    A merging of two souls
    and two bodies?

    I don’t have the answers
    But I don’t have any more doubts

    Or regrets with the path I have taken
    I still look forward

    To waking up each morning
    Seeing you there

    and knowing that every day
    we have together

    Is a gift that I will cherish
    Until my dying breath

    Lost and Found

    lost and found
    lost and found

    I was lost
    And you found me

    You walked out of my dreams
    And into my life

    And that made all the difference
    In the world

     

    As you entered my life
    I was all alone in this cruel world

    And you provided shelter
    And comfort

    I did not know what I wanted
    And you gave me what I wanted

    You gave me meaning
    You gave me purpose

    You gave me love
    And understanding

    peace and happiness
    Joy, laughter and fun

    You were endlessly fascinating
    Could not keep my eyes off you

    You were the most beautiful women
    In the world to me

    And you still are
    So many years later

    Like a fine bottle of wine
    Gets better with age

    And you gave me
    Endless nights of wild love making

    Which has gotten better
    As well

    as our bodies and souls merge together
    when in the midst of love making

    And I fell under your spell
    from the day I met you

    I was lost
    And you found me

    And if you go first
    I will be lost again

    Can’t live without you
    By my side

    Thus, is has always been
    Between us

    We are so entangled
    So, interwoven

    And that is the way
    It was meant to me

     

    Why am I Still Addicted to You?

    kissing couple
    kissing couple

    There is a mystery
    that has haunted me
    For almost 45 years

    45 years ago
    I met you
    in a dream

     

    And 38 years ago
    You walked
    off a bus

    And into my life
    And nothing was the same
    Since the day we met

    In the very beginning
    I was hopelessly
    addicted to you

    Why Did I fall for you
    Why did I become so hopelessly
    madly in love with you

    Why was it love at first sight
    And why can I know
    Then I had met you before

    All these are questions
    that still haunt
    me to this day

    All I know is
    After 45 years
    I am still Addicted to you

    The End

    Charles Bukowski Road Not Chosen

    And Other Poems

    By Jake Cosmos Aller

    Published in Down in the Dirt

    Charles Bukowski Road Not Chosen

    John (“Jake”) Cosmos Aller

    While reading Charles Bukowski poetry
    On the metro ride home
    Listening to Buddha bar music
    On my oh too hip IPod

    I begin to see myself as I was
    Over 30 years ago when I was merely a bit player
    A minor character in a Charles Bukowski poem

    A wild young underemployed intellectual
    Hanging out in dismal bars and dives all over Asia and California
    Hanging with disreputable women and drunks and drinkers
    And characters out of his kinds of haunts

    A mad poet bard of the underground
    A drunken poet in a drunken bum show
    That nightly played in his head

    Then one day I met the women of my dreams
    And went down a different path
    A long slow path to respectability

    And now 30 years later
    I am no longer a wild man
    I am still a poet at heart
    But I am now also a bureaucrat
    In a button down suite

    Doing the people’s business
    Working for the Government
    I’ve become the Man

    Sometimes I wonder
    Would I have been better off
    Going down that another path

    Would I have ended up
    Somewhere else
    Doing something else

    Would I have been as happy
    Would I have been as successful?

    There is no answer that satisfies
    The longing in my heart
    For that wild thing
    That still lurks beneath
    It’s civilized cover

    And I know that I am still
    A mad poet at heart
    Railing against the injustice of the world

    As I work day by day in the belly of the great beast of State
    I recall the ancient Chinese saying,
    “Confucian during the day while Taoist rebel at night”
    Playing out in my head and nightly dreams
    In the true American Upper class patrician tradition

    I close the book and look out the window
    Get off the train, and walk slowly home

    And realize I had no choice
    But to take the path that I’ve trodden on

    And so I put aside my misgivings
    And say goodbye to my “Bukowskian”desires
    For another night of domestic contentment

    Was it worth it all to take the conventional path
    And not take the bohemian road to hell and back

    I look at my wife and realize
    I had no choice, had no choice
    But to follow her to the ends of the earth

    And beyond by her side as we walked our path
    Of shared destiny

    Goodbye Charles Bukowski wherever you are
    May I meet you in a bar in the next life
    And figure out where we should have gone

    Until then the drinks are on me.

    Fallen Dreams Litter the Ground

    John (“Jake”) Cosmos Aller

    In the fall weather
    As I walk amid the falling leaves
    I see the signs everywhere

    Of the fall of America
    The once great and mighty Empire
    Everywhere signs of the fall appear

    The dark skies mirror
    The darkness that settled over our land

    Death, destruction and random acts of chaos
    Are all around us
    Surrounding us with visions of doom

    Nothing can stop the bloodletting
    No one seems to be in charge

    As the leaves fall
    And the darkness descends
    The fall of America continues

    My Name Is Nobody

    John (“Jake”) Cosmos Aller

    My name, it is Nobody
    No one cares who I am
    I am just a nameless clone
    In the cold unfeeling bureaucracy

    Just one of the army
    Of civilians who flood into and out of the city
    Every day

    A non-entity,
    A ghost
    A govbot
    A cyber
    A spook
    A faceless automan
    A bureaucrat

    Just a grey suited cog in the machinery
    And no one cares
    No one knows who I really am

    And I am legend
    Everywhere and nowhere

    Just the way this modern world
    All shred of humanity
    Crushed beneath the cruel wheel of society

    In the cold harsh world
    There is no room anymore
    For true human feelings

    We are just robots, clones, machines
    And so I go to work
    Put on my mask

    And no one hears my inner screams
    And no one will ever care

    Strangeness in the Air

    John (“Jake”) Cosmos Aller

    There is a strangeness in the air
    A sense of cosmic unease
    Hangs silently in the purple crystalline sky

    America woke up
    And decided it was time
    To quit following like lemmings
    Over the Clift

    As the pied piper chants
    Stay the course, stay the course
    We were like lemmings following him
    Dying to save his wounded pride

    Today there is that strange difference
    In the air
    As Americans woke up
    And threw off their chains of fear
