Another Sleepless, Sexless Night

Close by my side, slept sound through the night, a form fine as wine wrenching rich with all might. And his eyes – blue lagoons! like two watery moons, won’t neglect to protect as fast over me loom. But love perplexed will follow next, as by his act, my soul left vexed… or lack of act is the matter of fact! as he pushed me aside for a night of no sex.

OMG YOU MUST post your "Inert she lay beneath the shore" piece. I forgot the name but you have to post it. I am DYING to read. I can almost recite the whole thing in my head! But I still want to read it.

A dread feeling, as one lies, frozen and vexed, waiting for the hormones to dissipate and subside. An excellent poem.

Thank you, Mark. A woman undesired leaves a woman scorned... :)

Every bit as enchanting as the first time you read it to me. Still one of my faves.

...I don't know what to say, love sucks some times but we are humans and have certain 'needs' or we want to show our love through it...one day everythong will be allright
