What You Say
You say you'll be with me
Come even the end;
You say you will always be
Always my friend;
You say that we two
All through time have to spend
Togetherness...
That's what you say.
You say we are one
Even though we're a pair;
You say that you understand
Always, and care;
You say that we one
Made a bond that we'll share
Togetherness...
That's what you say.
You say in your hope
That you never will bend;
You say that you know
And need never pretend;
You say that our breath
Even death cannot end our
Togetherness...
That's what you say.

A bond understanding togetherness,
Between you and me...
Equals communication and love.

Shared Ecstasy for MY Lady Irene
The human frame cannot sustain
a state of bliss perpetually.
We reach the peak, descend again
although it is reluctantly.
The slow build up to the release,
a brief moment of ecstasy.
Two souls conjoined in perfect peace
as bodies move in harmony.
The ultimate togetherness.
No you, No I but only we.
A blend of lust and tenderness
we share but momentarily.
Togetherness we can maintain
we know we’ll climb the peak again.

(The) Fate of Fatal Lovers
Fated to be in a togetherness...
No one comprehends but them.
The fate of fatal lovers,
In a relationship
Others tell them not meant to be.
There is too much abuse done publicly.
And in private this feeds a romance...
Enhanced by physical foreplay,
Some say is quite sick.
They both inflict scars and wounds.
This attraction seems to be headed for doom.
But no one can see,
After the slapping and blackened eyes...
The love between them made!
Fated to be in a togetherness...
No one comprehends but them.
It just needs less notoriety.
With a maturity that has yet to begin.

Let Me Go! You Don't Want Me
Let me go!
You don't want me.
You want to keep me a toy played.
Until you squeeze,
Every emotion you can out of me.
Let me go!
For too long I wanted us to share,
A life of togetherness...
No one else could compare.
For too long I wanted us to be,
There for each other with sincerity.
Devoted with a caring and honesty.
But you chose to play games,
Everyday with me.
And...
Let me go!
You don't want me.
You want to keep me a toy played.
Until you squeeze,
Every emotion you can out of me.
Let me go!
For too long I wanted us to share,
A life of togetherness...
No one else could compare.
But you have chosen,
To remain frozen in time.
And finding this attractive in my mind,
Doesn't keep embers warm in my heart at all.
And I can not sit,
Pretending for another moment...
I'm enjoying any part of this.
Let me go.
You don't want me.
You don't want ME.
Let me go.

Devoted Mother
The tigress took her time this day...
Her cub was close at hand
And that was how they chose to stay,
As though it had been planned.
Togetherness brings tenderness,
Life-bonding to and fro.
Togetherness means gentleness
And friendship that can grow.
Together now, not separate,
As if it couldn't end.
For now, the cub looked delicate,
A fragile, feline friend...
The sun looked on with watchful eye,
To glide past up above.
The tigress seemed to pause and sigh,
To signify their love...
Today's the day these two must bond,
Forever, from now on.
To think of now and not beyond,
When peace has come and gone...
Devotion forms a daily gift
That hovers from the heart
And gives another's heart a lift,
And yet that's just the start...
For love endures, though seasons fade,
As months melt into years...
Love steers the course of plans we've made,
Beyond our doubts and fears.
The tigress tries to do her best -
In all things, she's superb.
If by her love, you've been impressed...
Stand back... and don't disturb...
The poem is based on the magnificent painting
by Stephen Gayford called 'Devoted Mother'.

Spiritual One
The desire is spiritual one
As it is shared by none
Other than the individual
Seeking with no part that can be dual
Togetherness in bond
We are all very much fond
Not less than any worship
When you accept companionship
The spiritual bond is different
That can be had at present
You got to be sincere with desire
Try for heavenly bond and desire
Spend some time in isolation
That may take you close to the relation
The meditation may make nice inroad
With direct communication and absolutely no load
You have peace and glory
Life is now free from worry
When you want peaceful salvation?
That may come easily with elation

Alone In A Togetherness
at one moment
i know what togetherness is
in an embrace
at night
recoiling and coiling
and curling
two bodies fusing as one
lovely
time has a way to
separate entwined beings
when things begin
to appear hazy
to the eye
you wake up
finding it hard to spell such
a simple word
as togetherness
it is there at the tip of your tongue
yet you cannot utter
even a single letter
you find yourself so alone
like a star that has
not faded with the others
at noontime
it is hot in that place like an over
making bread black
and not fit for human consumption
you stand by the door
look at the people passing by
guessing each name
the faces are sad
very much like yours.

Find an Exit
When it has been made clear,
There is nothing you share with someone...
Other than sex.
Nothing but a togetherness,
Wet in naked flesh.
Seek counseling.
This is just a prolonged fling.
You may not like this suggestion,
I offer to you next.
Find an exit.
And don't reject it.
In belief an adjustment made,
Will satisfy and correct.
It will not.
No matter who enjoyed what.
On the bottom or from on top.

Looking Better Than Ever
How can anyone take you seriously,
When you are not punctual?
This meeting started three hours ago.
And there is not going to be a review,
Just for you.
We are doing our best,
To put unity and family togetherness
At a test.
And it is obvious that 'discipline' is needed,
To proceed with this effort...
If any of us expects success!
Don't show up late as a favor.
Be on time as an obligation!
How can we as a family,
Make attempts to move forward...
If we all decided to go shopping,
To find something new to wear...
Just to look good to make that impression?
When you could have been here on time...
Looking better than ever like everyone else!
Dedicated:
To my huge and tremendous,
brilliantly talented family!
And to other families the world over,
who have come to realize 'tomorrow' is 'now'
for that unity and family togetherness to begin.
'We are going to do this!
AND with you.
So get over 'yo'self'!
There is too much to get done.
And taking time to look gorgeous,
With a radiance that stuns...
Will defeat the process of what has started.
Especially when everyone,
Already looks good enough to eat!
So get over 'yo'self'!
Sit down and let us meet.'
Love you,
Larry

But let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.

My Love
For my love:
being with u, my love
in our abode of togetherness
is the sole need
the only lead
the one desire
only we in its empire
cherished it is with love
nourished alone by love
flourishes for love
yet vanishes without love
miles it takes us together,
smiles it gives us forever
keeping us bound to each other,
with love to surround us over
the miles together
only we in its empire
with one desire
the sole need
bieng the only lead
in our abode of togetherness
being with u: my love
for my love

Walk It Down
I...i am just a number
I...hang on to what I got
You...say what you want to
I...i...i...i just try to stay alive
I...put myself together
People say, get away, somebody will turn you in
Life, life without surrender
Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need
I can laugh, but I should cry
When love and understanding are the ultimate crimes
(and I said) walk it down. talk it down.
(oh, oh, oh) sympathy. luxury.
Somebody will take you there.
Walk it down. talk it down.
(oh, oh, oh) sympathy. luxury.
Somebody will take you there.
She...says she remembers.
Time...long time ago.
We...belong together.
I...i...i...i turn up the radio
Lies, lies and propaganda
I...gonna tell you what I need
Life, life, without surrender
Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need
I got yours and you got mine
And I can swim, but I should fly
Chorus
Aint no crime to believe
I took my money, I bet my life
What you see is what you get
But it sure aint what we need.

Do Not Go So Far
My beloved,
my love,
do not go so far,
so far,
beyond the
reach of my dreams
wherein
holding your heart in mine
write our names
entwined
on each passing cloud
and
in a state of soul embrace
smile
at the vanity of time.
My beloved,
my love,
do not go so far
so far
beyond the
reach of my dreams
wherein
leaning on the edge of horizon
weave
the beautiful blanket of togetherness
and
borrowing colors from the rainbow
paint it the color of
love.
My beloved,
my love,
do not go so far
so far
beyond the
spam of my arms
wherein
love is not just an emotion
or desires untamed or wild.
where
togetherness is not mere possession of bodies
mortal with each passing tide.
and
your just being there
illuminates
my mind
my soul
my life
My beloved,
my love,
do not go so far.

Enough For Us to Know
You magnify more than just love in my mind.
I can not define it!
And to say it is love alone...
Seems so limiting.
You bring to me a radiance and glow.
Only my heart feels it without description.
In my head my mind has you there all the time.
I envision us in a togetherness.
A completeness felt,
Others say they can not find.
A void of emptiness I had experienced is gone.
You magnify more than just love in my mind.
I can not define it!
And I waste no time...
Trying to understand why it is you that comes,
To occupy my life like this...
With an easiness for me to welcome.
You bring to me a radiance and glow.
Only my heart feels it without description.
In my head my mind has you there all the time.
I envision us in a togetherness.
A completeness felt,
Others say they can not find.
And I am left feeling happiness for us.
In a devoted loyality...
I neither doubt or question.
Or confuse with lust.
To have such a blessing bestowed...
Is enough for us to know and trust.
As it within us,
Seems to nurture and grow.
Glowing and showing it...
As it grows to glow.
With you and I alone knowing,
What it is that is there to love.
And we are in it to give and receive.
That is all I know we have and can believe.

Be My Friend, Not Love
Its so beautiful
The way
Your mouth curls up
Laughing
My laugh.
The way
Your eyes droops
With the tears in my eyes.
I know,
With my pain you wince
And
with my joys you rejoice.
Its so lovely
The way
I think your thoughts.
Sometimes agreeing
Sometimes disagreeing
Like a disobedient,
Wild,
Reckless child.
Its so wonderful
The way
In those moments of togetherness
Your heart beats
To the rhythm of my heart
Your eyes
Dreaming silently
The dreams in my eyes.
Remain,
O lovely soul,
Be my friend
For life after life.
No, not lovers.
As love
is packaged
With an inbuilt
Date of expiry,
Love comes
with all its “wants”
and
my hands are all empty.
I have nothing to offer
If any day
There is a “demand”.
Be my friend
Cause it is free of those
“wants” or “demands”.
Nor does it comes with
Frills or frets of love.
And,
I will always
Laugh with your laugh
Cry with your tears
Rejoice in your joys.
My heart,
In these moments of togetherness
Will always
Dance,
Beating to the rhythm of your heart.

Foolish Restrictions
Come,
And spend the night with me.
Unleash those temptations.
And be freed of them.
Have we witnessed,
Enough of the passion and yearning?
It is time to get explicit.
It is time to let...
What naturally comes next.
A love expressed,
With the act of sex just between us.
Come,
And spend the night with me.
Let the flowing of our urges...
Complete that need.
Time has long passed,
Since I wanted just a piece of...
Love!
To grasp and call my own to grow!
Come,
And spend the night with me.
Now and tomorrow.
And beyond...
If that is our destiny!
You and I have too long known...
A togetherness our hearts have shown.
Come...
And let us remove,
Those foolish restrictions!
Those that keep us relating in limited conditions.
When we wish more than anything,
To lay in each other's arms.

Hope For The Future
The polar bear looked at her child,
The one she must defend,
The son who soon would face the wild,
The one who was her friend...
The tiny cub looked up above,
To see his mother there,
The one who filled his heart with love
And melted every care.
Their togetherness and gentleness
Remain a sight to see.
To those who share their happiness,
There's no great mystery...
For each shares hope, as days go by,
With bonds they share for life,
That help them bear and thus defy
The troubles and the strife.
If Nature didn't cultivate
The love that these two own,
Then each of them would face their fate
Unaided, all alone...
Through families, life perseveres,
For we know we belong...
Surviving through the passing years,
Resilient, ever strong.
Persistence and tenacity,
These strengths have proved enough...
Formed now in every family
With tenderness and love...

Father and Daughter
The bond, the love, the connection
When she looks at you, you melt
When she holds your hand, you melt
When she cuddles you, you melt
A pureness, an honesty, a total love
A desire to be there for each other
Distance is no matter, love travels
Always thinking, always loving
A genuine, long-lasting, never-ending togetherness
From life to death and beyond
A father and daughter's love will always live on
I love you, my daughter!
