And The Rest Is Up To You (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



And The Rest Is Up To You   (Bussokusekika)

I think you should know
I can not make you happy
That is up to you
I can only contribute
What little I have to give
And the rest is up to you

About this poem

I think I will be spending some time sitting on a certain bench for a while this week…I wonder IF you might decide to go for another bike ride???I don’t think that the skin on my teeth will have a tear though…There is more to love life and happiness than teeth and hands…Some people never realize this though…They feel as IF pleasure can bring joy and happiness…True joy and happiness may only come from one’s own inner self…If wonder IF I am just another loser in certain people’s eyes…I am still a little confused about the closed sign…Oh well…Everyone must live with the choices we make…IF I am sowing seeds…I wonder IF these seeds may bear fruit???I wonder IF the fruit they bear will be pleasant of bitter???Only time will tell…Soulmates or twin flames???I wonder IF we might be able to teach anything to each other that the may not know???I just hope that IF we ever form a physical bond…I hope that favorite position doesn’t becomes the vaca muerta…I’ve been there and done that…Right now I am looking for a true friend…IF anything further may grow from that…That will just be icing on the cake…What’s thinks ye Of The Valley???
