      Young Heart, Old Soul - Michael Tavon

      The Notebook

      I hope,

      40 years from now

      we’re looking at old pictures

      Of our young love

      Smiling at how things

      Never changed.

      Speeding Hearts

      You two are moving too fast

      They said.

      I was confused

      I never knew falling in love

      Had a time frame

      Because we were

      Moving at the rate

      Our hearts raced

      So the pace just felt right

      Like the Ocean

      You are unpredictable

      like the ocean

      But I do not fear drowning

      in your wave of emotions

      When you open up

      I hold my breath

      And dive in

      Allowing my skin to get drenched

      In your power,

      After my body soaks,

      I yearn for more

      I’m not the best swimmer

      But your waves carry me to shore

      Others fear getting consumed by your massive waves

      Not I,

      I admire your intensity

      I’m allured by your mystery

      And I will always

      choose to swim

      Knowing you would never

      let me drown

      Honor Student

      To the parts of you

      That are too complex to understand

      I promise to forever remain

      A student of your heart

      I’ll study your love overnight

      To retain the intricacies of your

      Existence

      I refuse to fail you,

      Dropping out

      Is not an option

      In turn,

      I hope you remain patient

      with me

      ‘For I’m trying my damnedest

      To excel’

      in the most advance course

      of my life,

      In the end

      It will be worth it

      Because your love

      Is perfect

      Sincerely, your most dedicated pupil

      Untitled Poem

      Sometimes we tend mold our love interest into an image they can’t portray because that’s not who they are. Sometimes we fantasize over the idea of love and end up falling for someone who isn’t for us. Often times we fall in love with someone’s potential whilst being blinded to who they really are. Sometimes we envision an entire future with this lover before giving them a chance to show us who they are in the present reality. You must learn leading with your imagination results in
