Oh how I want
the want
you had for me
to be the want
you have for me.
Oh how I need
the need
you had for me
to be the need
you have for me.

love this...captured the magic
So simple, so gorgeous ❤️
Good one, Paul. I resonated with this. Brought back memories of old lovers.
Oh wow. This. One. Writing some simple and deeply profound pieces, my pal! All of your pieces grip me, but you’re killing it with the brevity! 🤯💫💞
Amen, Paul. Beautifully & succinctly said.
But people won't need/want us anymore when they find someone better. Why is that? I hope they rot in hell. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️
Sometimes I read something that causes me to take a sharp inhale. This is one of those pieces. Direct, powerful, straight to the point. Well done, Buddy. I hope you get your wish.
To the point, which works well when the point is so sharp.
My dear, that poem came directly from your Italian side! Beautiful
Nice
Oh ouch, Paul. I've whispered that prayer for a time. It burns.
