Charles Bukowski

My Dear Love;

Charles Bukowski

A Terrible Need:

Some people simply search out unhappiness,

they'll scrounge it out in any given situation

taking any whim

any simple error

and then becoming hateful

vengeful.

don't they realize that

there's so little time?

and to mutilate it like this....

there's never

ever

any way

to recover

all that was

WASTED

There is enough treachery, hatred, violence

Absurdity in the average human being

To supply any given army on any given day.

And the best at murder are those who preach against it.

And the best at hate are those who preach love

And the best at war - finally - are those who preach peace

KING OF POETS

Happy Happy Birthday

May All Your Dreams Come True

Happy Happy Birthday

From another October baby

To you!

To My Friend, I Hope You Know Who You Are

As You Have Done For Me

So strong, your calm face

Tears behind your smile

They fall silently

when I am not around to see

not there to empathize

How can I be consoled

when I so want to console? 

So strong, you're so calm

always knowing what to say

or when just to be.

Let me be there for you

to understand

instead of being understood

So strong, the strength you have

it amazes me

Never a trace of cruelty

Always so giving of your soul

I wish I could be that strong

to keep your sorrow

at bay with my

tempest weary candle
Take that from me,
Give me that at least.
When you smile,

Your eyes spill light

all over me

I'm sorry mine was never bright enough

to keep or help you out of the dark

As yours has always done for me
