What You Don't Give
January 8, 2011
What you don't give me.
You don't give me a roof over my head.
You don't give me food on my table.
You don't buy me the clothes i wear.
If you want i can keep going, keep naming things that you don't give me, but im not. Some stuff you give me might not be stuff I need to survive. Well besides your love. You give me you love and thats enough.

I was reading the first part, and I thought that you would present the reading audience with a long list of stuff that he doesn't give you. But I love the fact that you come outright and say,"You give me your love and that's enough." I love that line, because love is enough to keep someone going. Can you please comment on my poem, "Learn"?
