all it takes

Sometimes
Happiness gives space for little else

One person makes the others bearable

One word makes the rest unimportant

One smile makes the tears worth it

One piece of truth fades the lies away

One hug makes pain less painful

One message makes my day

One flame banishes darkness

One you - makes me believe in good..

still there

It excites me
It invites me
It titillates me
It surprises me
It inspires me
It satisfies me
It frustrates me

It makes me happy and sad all at once
It takes me high and low and lets me bounce
in between them

It saddens me
It gladdens me
....
yes..
Poetry still writes me..
