Anthony Sfreddo Poem
Think long and hard and tell me-what is love?
I’m thinking of the normal answers, and they appall me!
Tell me love is chocolate, flowers, and sex;make my day!
I pity those who believe that, because that is not love
No that is materialism, that is society ruining something special
Love, well it’s different for everyone-depends on the person
But I’ve got an idea of what it is to me…
Catch this I get stationed in Korea, and I get on a plane
I get off the plane and a woman I’ve never met has bought me a ring
She confesses to me that she can’t live without me; I gave her nothing
Well, not exactly nothing-I suppose
I gave her happiness, made her feel special, I gave her hope
She sent me the ring, and after only two months of talking, we are on the way to getting married
Foolish, young, naive-blah blah, everyone has an opinion-no one keeps it to themselves
They tell us slow down, get to know each other, spend some time together…
Yet, we’ve planned for our first two kids already
We’ve planned a savings plan to buy a house when my contract expires
We are some of the most pro active you adults you’ll ever meet!
But we are not in love right?
Because I can’t kiss her yet, or hug her-I can’t love her?
Let me ask you-when a mother is pregnant, does she love that unborn baby?
The answer is yes…so why can’t we be in love?
The answer is simple-society says it’s a recipe for disaster-
Well, society, I hate to tell you this, I love her…
Love is the feeling in your heart, knowing your appreciated…
Love is being able to tell someone anything and everything…
Love is giving up sleep, and dealing with it to see her face…
Love is my blonde haired blue eyed fiancé…
Whether society accepts it because “love” must be this physical thing
Or they look down on it because it’s hopeless
Nothing stops me from waking up when the sunrises here…
And the sunsets where she is…
…and I say those 3 words, with every bone, muscle, tissue in my body quivering in joy…
…nothing has or will ever stop me from saying I love you to her
I know what love is, and it's a beautiful feeling
Love is simple…
…love…
Love is what you make it.

Anthony Sfreddo Poem
I met her by chance on an Instagram post
A ravishing blonde, of which I now boast
Hard to say why she did it, how she fell in love
Maybe it was me going to Korea, that gave her a shove
Whatever the case, a ring she did buy
Only a month after I had first said hi
The insane part I was over 7,000 miles away,
Yet I still set the girls heart on fire, day by day
Soon she told me soon we’d be wed
Side by side, all warm in the same bed
I yearn for that now, for I know she has my heart
And I hate the distance, the being apart
I cry night by night, for I’m in love with my baby
There’s no ifs ands or buts, theres no maybe
She is all mine, and I want her near
She is my baby I want her here
I’m loyal as can be, I sit and do wait
For the day I’m with her, oh it’ll be great
To finally see the woman that captured my soul
To finally see the woman who makes me whole.

Anthony Sfreddo Poem
In a perfect world…
Well there is no such thing
No such thing as a perfect world
The world is a flawed place
A place full of more hate
More hate and less love
Love that is needed
Needed to make this domain
Domain we live in, less
Less unbearable, and more
More acceptable to people
People who try and try
Try only to fail
Fail only to quit
Quit because its easier
Easier because society
Society says that it is
Is it though?
In a perfect world…
That
That is quite a thought.

Anthony Sfreddo Poem
Hell, hell is a real place, remember me-be not tempted, and be strong!
The most powerful thing you have is God and love, with that there can be no wrong-
Lastly, my love, my life, my wife, my family, my friends, continue-continue life-that beautiful song...

Anthony Sfreddo Poem
Love, love of my life-oh how I adore thee
Outside, just as pure and beautiful, like your heart and soul
Very elaborately crafted, but oh so simple and sweet to love
Even through the worse, you are my queen amongst mere women
Life, life with you is something I never dreamt of-even in my sleep
Incredibly, I can now see my dream, my dream has come true
Never doubting your heart, never going to leave
Evening will swallow day, the sun will set, and I will always be here
Such is love, crazy, and unconditional
Strong together, we shall conquer the world-hand in hand
