My best friend had to memorize some lines of a poem for his English class and he chose Howl and I love him

(this is a poem I wrote a while back, just earlier this year actually. i still stand by it and out of all my high nighttime poetry, this is one that doesn't suck. thanks) - I have avoided love poems I have avoided love poems because of a fear of cliches I have avoided love poems because they were hard to work with I have avoided love poems because I didn't want to become ordinary The day I write a love poem is today I will not exist if I cannot hear your banter about the meaning of life in between the sounds of pebbles falling into the creek. I will not exist without your smile. Your casualty and confidence, your kindness. I have called you precious Then called myself a burden You have said No O brother You are no burden I have said Thank you O brother I didn't mean to upset you "YOU DIDN'T! I'm busy sometimes—" "I know you are, I hope you aren't overwhelmed." I try to give you advice as great as you've given me but it is helpless. I will never be half the man you are. I will never be the lover you are. You are a lover of everything. Why do you appreciate everything? The spring evenings of my youth will not go unappreciated. You will not go unappreciated, I have told you a thousand times Do you believe me Do you even want to believe me do you realize you are more than this flawed human you see yourself as do you realize how much I trust you do you realize how important you are to so many people do you realize it do you O my brother It isn't banter, your thoughts on life. It is art, it is golden and must be worshipped- Thrown upon a Pedestal I will listen to it everyday. I love you, put it on the record, I love you, let everybody know, let them get sick and tired of hearing it, let it be known by every body, living or dead or anything in between. I am in between if I am without your love. I am blessed to have gotten to know you, Why , though, Why did you open up? I love you, O my brother. I have avoided love poems because I feared they would make me fall in even deeper. Frankly I was right.

It's so nice when you feel so connected to a writer to the point where you believe they're looking down on you and steering you in the right direction.

a KYD fan: allen ginsberg is such a unique character! Ugh if only he were real me: :) well :)
