Dark In Love

'Twas her erotic branch, And soft seductive leaves, That caused my veins to bleed and branch, Outside of cotton sleeves 'Twas I in love with lust? Or lust in love with me? It was her heart I could not trust, Yet her...I would marry Not use to love I cried, A river of a well, While sacrificing all my pride, To hear the harps of hell 'Twas her erotic branch, And soft seductive leaves, That caused my veins to bleed and branch, Outside of cotton sleeves

When something is this good I need to visit it more than once. Just love 1st and last verses; kind of haunts my mind with those images.

I enjoyed reading your poetry this morning Johnny. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I am going to see if I can write something for a couple contests this weekend. Hope you find the inspiration to do the same. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours. Love, Carol
