Him
Him.
There he is
So human.
Unaware
That he alone knows the poetry of my heart.
Unaware
That
He is the
Living ,
Breathing
Poem of my soul.
Great Designs
These
Great
Designs.
They often
Do not make sense
Until we look behind.
Trust the journey.
Trust yourself.
Unmaking
The unmaking of me.
I am caught
In between being
Too much
And
Not enough
Of myself.
Learning.
Bending
But never breaking.
A Poet’s Seduction
Seduce.
You lure and entice.
A poet’s seduction.
A maker of sighs and smiles.
Words of reality woven
Into the ink of fantasy
Until you cannot tell
Which one you have become.
Which one you yearn for.
Words caressing your heart and mind.
Finding their way into depths
Even you yourself cannot find.
Tempting and tantalizing
Between passion and longing.
Loneliness and belonging.
Lust and hate
Love and distaste.
You’ve left yourself
Bargaining for
More than a phrase.
Beasts
I beg of
You,
Do not awaken
His beasts within.
He is a very vengeful man.
He does not understand that his
Very
Insanity
Drove you away.
My Garden
I have found my garden
Is beginning to grow
Out beyond my fortress walls.
My flowers have begun to blossom
And
Over take
These well built defenses
Row by row.
Barefoot
Barefoot.
Exposed to the elements of
The changing seasons.
She sways as
The frigid northern wind finds its way
Inside her,
Playing music on her bones.
Her inner self fragile
Upon this path.
Still she moves
Trying to glimpse the moon
Through
Light years and wonder.
He is seeking too.
Wishing to glimpse her
As she basks naked in his glow.
Neither Know
He speaks so vehemently.
Anger spilling
From
His breath onto her
Dress.
Her hands now fretting.
She does not know how to
Remove
This stain
And he does not know
What to do with
The
Tears.
Coalesce
Desirous skin
Mouth so tender
I take pause as you surrender
To this love.
Nothing left but this love.
We
Broke open.
Laid bare
And
Shattered through love.
There was too much passion to be
Contained
In one vessel anyway.
We had no choice in the collision.
Now melding.
Coalesce.
Between you and I
We are a
Luscious mess.
