Street Corner: I WILL Work For LOVE

Truth, had dark roots of insecurity.
Her needs and my wants collided against rocks.
I stand here alone in my same socks
Different block, New sign, Reads:
I WILL WORK FOR LOVE.
Starving for the very essence you contain.
In love and insane...
THe chemical balance that has me standing here.
Hoping you... yes you, catch the meaning.
I clean up very well.
That smell, it's not piss... It's tears!
I cry, yes I cried for the lost of a person who was
NOT TRUTH.
In reality she lost the truth in her meaning.
Becoming her deity, praising a beauty.
Tarnishing a soul.
I WILL WORK FOR LOVE.
Not any love, UNCONDITIONAL.
Love with equal dimensions.
Extensions of spirits that have known each other
From one life to the next.
WILL work for love, not built on sex.
Simple things... "I LOVE YOU" your threw a text.
Because 24hrs is more than a distance
Than the LONG for instance...
WORK for love, persistence!
In this life, as my lover and then as my wife.
FOR LOVE...
On this corner, while my belly aches
knowing you exist.
Kissing the Concrete, knowing your the rose
that grew from it.
Blossoming, on this block...
Stopped on this corner because here is where
my heart stopped.
