Nothing is guaranteed. Life is fragile. It may end unexpectedly. Throw caution to the wind. Love and be loved. Don't give in to regrets. This poem comes from the heart of a woman in a war torn country...not knowing if she will live to see the light of day....she wants the security of that one night with her lover...for she knows...tomorrow...may never come.

Make love to me, baby Cradle me Soothe me Pacify me I have but you to chase them away These demons I try to hold at bay Tomorrow is not guaranteed Nothing is real anyway It's all a dream Nothing will stay It will all one day melt away Why wait? Let the melting begin In this heat between you and me …make me melt In this fire Make love to me Nothing else but you in candle light Nothing by your face above mine Nothing but your hands all over me Nothing but your scent clinging to me Nothing but you Now….HERE Make love to me Make love to me Oh, make it last and last Eternity past forgotten Eternity future May never come Eternity present is here In this moment Don’t rush To your body...crush Hush Every other noise But the panting of my heart whispered moans Your name bursting From trembling lips Don’t let anything else Take your mind away from me The world doesn’t exist the universe? It's only lies It’s here My universe in your eyes Blazing comets of desire Combusting into me All that was ever meant to be Will be Just.. Make love to me Close your ears To these sounds of war In this shelter Be safe Close your ears To the deafening blasts They won't last We will Forget the ground shaking The world being torn apart Tear off my clothes Shake me Let me quake In the blast of your passion Fill your ears with the sounds of me Thundering ecstasy Deafening heartbeats My voice telling you….breathlessly You are who you’re meant to be A lover not a fighter A lover of me Make love to me We may not live another week Baby…not another day Nothing is guaranteed Just this hour This moment of melding into one Coming undone Flesh on flesh reality I close my eyes And let myself go free Who cares what becomes of me Right now, right here Paradise is sinking into me… As you make love As you make that sweet love To ME...

Well, all I really can say about this poem is Wow! It's true, I hadn't visited you in a while nor anyone else. Ever since FJ left I haven't been on the Soup much.

This made me think of the second world war. I imagine the urgency of passion when people don't know if they will live another day. It would make the experience that much more intense. Well expressed Eileen.

That is what I wanted to portray, Richard. I guess as I'm getting older...I'm realize that life is transient...I don't want to live with regrets. It's been a very difficult year for me, in many ways...My mortality is always in my mind...I don't want to go without leaving in a blaze of glory...What better way! :) Thanks for the visit.

You are Love's lawyer woman! Damn! You are the Cause of Eternity's shame, the Cause of Love Making with no blame or promise, just two hearts reaching one maximum moment. This is so intense...J.A.B.

Love's Lawyer. That is as original as it gets, Justin! :) I think I like the title very much, thank you. Intense... ;) My middle name...Sometimes my own intensity bothers me, but....I intensely enjoy the good things in life as well. Thanks for the visit...Hugs

STRONG love makin', heart shakin' poem! Almost has hints of Buddhism in the Past, Present, and Future lines...could just be my perception. At any rate, the Free lines are all there, "Nothing is guaranteed", you can almost guarantee that is true:) Keep it Paradisiac in the Prosy ProsaicS PoeteSS!

Thanks, JS. I was in a somber mood when I wrote this. It has the desperation of Titanic moments....All is ending...when not taste eternity. It would be the best way to go. I've lived through war...and the terror of war. It's a daily reality here...Very frustrating to always worry about life and death issues....Thanks for the visit.
