For You My Love, For You…a Cat

Paul Sunstone

For you my love,
For your love, my love,
I would marry heaven to hell
Then myself serve
As their marriage counselor.
For you my love,
For you.

For you my love,
For your love, my love,
I would make a spice-less salsa
Out of chopped turnips
Then eat it as my chip-dip
For a month.
For you my love,
For you.

For you my love,
For your love, my love,
I would declare myself
In the market for a game PC
Then handwrite thank-you notes
To everyone who swears
I need their advice.
For you my love,
For you.

For you my love,
For your love, my love,
I would burn a hundred meals
And still eat them all
While listening to tween love songs
And pouring over FaceBook kitten photos.
For you my love,
For you.

For you my love,
For your love, my love,
I would refuse
To look at the beauty
Of the moon,
Of a sunrise,
Of a woman,
Of a friendship,
Of a truth
For a whole week.
For a whole week
I would refuse to see
the beauty of this world,
I would refuse to embrace life
For you my love,
For you.

For you my love,
For your love, my love,
I would write one poem,
And only one poem,
Inviting your cat
To sleep between us tonight.
In my life, I would even tolerate
Your cat to sleep between us
For just this once,
For just tonight.
For you my love,
For you.

For you my love,
For your love, my love,
I would shamelessly
Use your cat as the excuse,
As the ice-breaker,
To suggest that you and I
Sleep together tonight,
Sleep together tonight
For our first time ever.
For you my love,
For you.

  3. And here I thought I was the only person in the world who wrote humorous love poems! People take love too SERIOUSLY. Thanks for joining the effort to break them of that habit! Love is funny and fun!

  4. A thoroughly entertaining piece Paul, and I was wondering if could get an invite to the wedding of heaven and hell, with you as the marriage counsellor…… superbly freaky…
