Marriage Poems
Marriage Is the Closest Kind of Friendship
poem by Nicholas Gordon
Copyright by © Nicholas Gordon

Marriage is the closest kind of friendship.
Years of traffic wear away the lines
Between two souls with similar designs,
Ending more in unity than kinship.
Separate actors must play separate parts:
They must alone be riveted by need.
Far beneath that soil a single seed
Roots itself, tenacious in their hearts.
In love there is a trust beyond the word.
Each finds peace in each, as though the light
Needed the tranquility of night,
Deeper than what silence can be heard.

Love Is Never Easy
poem by Nicholas Gordon
Copyright by © Nicholas Gordon
Love is never easy, but
It turns life into song.
There is no bit of circumstance
That love cannot transform.
There is no weary moment
Of anger or despair
That love cannot convert to grace
And render whole and fair.
How passionate the paradise
That comes from knowing well
That someone in your happiness
Finds pleasure for himself.
How sweet the gift of giving to
Someone who gives to you,
A selflessness that gives to self
More self than self is due.
With all the searing madness of
The world from day to day,
And all the dreary sadness that
No joy can take away.
There is one truth more beautiful
Than anyone can bear:
That two can trust that when they turn
They'll find the other there.

There Is a Point to Living Vertically
poem by Nicholas Gordon
Copyright by © Nicholas Gordon
There is a point to living vertically,
To being with one person all one's life,
To diving 'neath the hapless, hopeless sea
Where one might meet the wonder of one's wife.
There is a mythic journey to be taken
That has much more to do with time than place,
That finds a fortune not to be forsaken,
Measured less in pleasure than in grace.
There is between us something more than passion,
A longing for belonging, and a sense
That here is love with neither writ nor ration,
Tendered with the joy of innocence.
The years pass quickly, though the time is long;
To spend them loving well cannot be wrong.
I Know I Didn't Do So Well

I Know I Didn't Do So Well
poem by Nicholas Gordon
Copyright by © Nicholas Gordon
I know I didn't do so well
The little time I had.
But though I've lost my only dream,
I'm still crazy about you.
You were the first real date for me,
And I made my mistakes.
But though I've paid a bitter price,
I'm still crazy about you.
How much is a love like mine
Worth to you right now?
Other guys might know the ropes,
But I'm still crazy about you.
So what if you would be a little
Crazy, too, like me?
And go for it just one more time,
'Cause I'm . . . well, you already know.
