They say, "Don't trust people,"
But would you like it if no one trusted you,
Even when you know you're genuine?
They say, "I don't love anymore—people disappoint me,"
But would you like it if no one loved you,
Even when you're a bundle of joy?
Life may strike me with countless disappointments,
But I will never stop trusting and loving.
Call me a hopeless romantic,
But a few bad experiences won’t drain the love in me.
I am full of it—I will pour it out,
As long as my heart beats.
Love is not a transaction;
It is a gift freely given.
And if someone cannot receive it,
It’s not your failure.
Not everyone can handle love—
It takes someone special, like you

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

I'm still so afraid to trust or love someone. Loved your poem!
