Half The World - Poem By Cathy Nerujen

Half the world is sweetness,

And half the world's in fear –

See your eyes, they sparkle

And your lips are drawing near.

Half the world is blinded –

But half the world can see me –

And like the stars that float above –

Your eyes so soft and dreamy.

Half the world is watching -

The other half’s asleep –

Your lips and tongue they take me –

A Hundred Kisses deep.

Half of us forgiven now,

But half of us are punished –

I pour my heart out on this page –

Now half this poem is finished...

Half the world is floating –

But half the world is sunk.

Your passion – my immersion –

Like potion I have drunk.

Half the world’s been poisoned,

The other half is healing –

You trace a rivulet of skin –

This ecstasy I’m feeling.

Half the world needs loving,

While half the world it pines –

It longs for “Love’s Attention”

As part of God’s Designs.

Half this world has crushes –

And then half of it is smitten –

And although this poem’s finished now,

Only half this love is written.

"One half of the world does not understand the pleasures of the other half."
