She gets off on all the love in my words
I, on the love they promise I will have
She lives far away in love and by strife
What hope in heaven or hell can I have
Words are sent using our love's language codes
I comprehend them all, that’s all I have
I count the hours, I tabulate the days
What’s the point, I wonder, what will I have
I don’t sleep well, cannabis seems to help
She’s stronger than God’s plant, that’s what I have
She’s too hot in bed, that’s all I can hold
That’s how I behave, what else can I have
She smiles on the screen of every eyeball
What wouldn’t I give for her smile to have

What wouldn’t I give for her smile to have - couldn't be more true! Great Poem
What a heart-wrenching and poignant poem ! The repetition of "what can I have" adds a poignant rhythm to the verse...I enjoyed reading it.
