LOVE, ONLY FOR LOVE: Poems, by Marichiko

I SIT AT MY DESK

I sit at my desk.

What can I write to you?

Sick with love,

I long to see you in the flesh.

I can write only,

“I love you. I love you. I love you.”

Love cuts through my heart

And tears my vitals.

Spasms of longing suffocate me

And will not stop.

YOU ASK ME

You ask me what I thought about

Before we were lovers.

The answer is easy.

Before I met you

I didn’t have anything to think about.

 

 

MAKING LOVE WITH YOU

Making love with you

Is like drinking sea water.

The more I drink

The thirstier I become,

Until nothing can slake my thirst

But to drink the entire sea.

(Marichiko)
