A Jar On A Shelf

It sits on a shelf A jar Filled with feelings Left over from when I lovedIt sits next to A jar Filled with tears Left over from when I lovedIt sits with the lid sealed tight A jar Filled with love & hate. This is a quadrille from a prompt on dVerse. “Let your museContinue reading “A Jar On A Shelf”

Passion

Hot passion like fire on our skin. Drowning in desire for your touch and taste. Lust drips from my tongue, tears of want fall from my eyes. Reaching through the misty haze I grab your hand, pulling you into my embrace. Hands on your hips, I thrust, delving in you; diving into your soul. I mine the rich fields of youContinue reading “Passion”

Electric Electorate

Thrown in the fire, tossed in the sea, iniquity follows my foe, facing across from me. The aisle narrow, the gap wide, things said I can’t abide. Look me in my eye, hand me your ear, let me see the red in your white and blue, you can’t because you do the things you oughtContinue reading “Electric Electorate”

Once They Were Horses

Tamed by the bridle, led astrayWhere have their wild spirits gone?Galloping in the windManes flying free. Capturing the wind.Yet, here they prance. So pretty with their braided bowsAnd dead eyes. Sorrow buried beneath the surface.It’s hard to believe they once ran across the prairiesTheir feet shaking the earth, thunder in the valley.Mares with their stallions,Continue reading “Once They Were Horses”

Lust Unspoken

My hunger for youIs a dangerous thing.A fire ragingBurning to get out.Your eyes and smileDisarming harmony.My lust Driving me wild.Charming interplayOf unspoken passionHinting but unrevealed,I let my imagination Slide over you,Caresses intimate placesKisses untouched.

Their Eyes Upon Me

Eyes watch me, they’re insideOpinions and judgements. Attempts to understandDo you see me? Look, here I am!I have my dark side and my light tooStorms thunder yet the sun shines Chasing modesty, underwater I swam.Awaken from my blanket of discarded decorationFlowers in bloom, birds do sing,I wonder what those who are watching think?What do youContinue reading “Their Eyes Upon Me”

Lost In You

I find myself In your eyesLooking for an anchor With wings on fire.Drowning in a seaOf blue irisesGrasping at reedsThat float byLike lashesIn a blink.
