We arrive in this world alone, we depart this world alone. This time called life was meant to share.
Love is one of the most powerful energies in the world: it drives us forward: gives us purpose ; and adds meaning where it sometimes seemed none existed.
In its extremes it is either a fountain of the most soaring euphoria and ecstasy: or where it is lost, blocked, or turned away, a bottomless well of despair, pain and profound despondency.
In between the extremes are the smaller moments, laughter shared, tears shed and wiped away, fears soothed.
I look at this all-pervading emotion in hopes of finding the motivation and object of my poetry and art.
I look at you and know me better, for much of what I am is made of you.
All the shades of love are summoned and celebrated in my work. Jon York 2025
Learn to be what you need. If you need love be love. If you need light be light. if you need strength be strength. If you need hope be hope. Learn to be what you need. Jon York 2019
A good relationship is about two things: first appreciating the similarities, and second, respecting the differences. The best kiss is the one that has been exchanged a thousand times between the eyes before it reaches the lips .The best portion of your life will be the small nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to you.

I have thought my entire life I needed oceans or mountains or bright city lights to be happy. Truth is: I do not care where I am as long as I have you.
I want to be that person you can't stop thinking about when you're surrounded by people who aren't me. Jon York 2019
Find someone who isn't afraid to admit that they miss you. Someone who knows that you are not perfect but treats you as if you are. Someone who's biggest fear is losing you. One who gives their heart completely. Someone who says 'I love you' and means it. Last but not least, find someone who wouldn't mind waking up with you in the morning seeing you in wrinkles and your gray hair but still falls for you all over again and touches you like she did the very first time you ever met and first thing out of her mouth is the words 'I love you' as she kisses your lips.

She enters my heart when I am unaware of her presence, and she unbends my thoughts when my self-esteem needs a boost allowing me to love myself as I love her.
She gives me the courage to embrace dreams and the strength to sacrifice for them and the determination to fulfill them.
When I feel lonely or distressed, she helps me to remember that she is always with me. Jon York 2019
We kiss, We hug, We text, We talk, We forgive, We laugh, We smile, We touch, We touch again, We touch more, We kiss again, We kiss some more, We love, That's us Jon York 2019
I want your body pressed against my heart. I want my hands spreading your thoughts, lingering over the curves of your passions, gripping your hopes, stroking your opinions, and cupping your desires. I want your soul breathing heavily against my collarbones. I want my thoughts nibbling on your ears, your passions pressed against my lips. Your hopes naked on my skin, Your opinions hard under my hands and your desires... letting out soft little moans against my soul. I want You. Jon York 2019
Touch her in all ways non physical. Give her intellectual ******* in multiples and allow temptation to drip from her ears. Go down on her thoughts and taste her perception. Learn her soul and she will fill the void of your filthiest imaginations.... Never start with your hands. Jon York 2019
