Richard Lamoureux Poet Free verse

Liquid Dreams Small R Rated

Why do you invade my dreams
You come to me when I am weak
Touch me with your liquid hands
Pour over every part of me
I am your prisoner
Yet I feel free

I wish to be commanded
A ship on your waves
Your helpless slave
Rocked to my grave
Taken inside of you
Letting you do what you do

You are ferocious 
You cause me to scream
Water turned to steam
I ache with a strange pain
Yet I wish to remain

Here there is no shame
You are the water 
You quench my flame
An entity with no name

I know you're not real
Maybe that's the appeal
I can't help how I feel
I release every drop
As you move on top
My whole body quakes
I feel a distant shake
I'm pulled awake

The feel of you 
Will soon dissapear
You were never really here
Yet a smile remains
As my memory wanes

Time to get up
Go to work
Others ask
Why the silly smirk

I will not say the reason why
To myself I keep this high
Thankful for you
My liquid lullaby

Richard Lamoureux October 19, 2013 at 7:35 AM Thanks Eileen, I forgot I wrote this one.

Guru Jad May 1, 2013 at 7:37 AM Wow!! You are surely a Gentleman... Your eloquence and selection of words make this poem a genuine one! Poetry is a quarter of reality mixed with a quarter of illusions added to a quarternof dreams... But we often seive our experiences and purify them in an attempt to.... many different subjective reasons! I believe your poem has touched a delicate case without scratching anything. Great job, Richard. You are amazing! Richard Lamoureux May 1, 2013 at 7:48 AM Thanks Guru Jad, I had fun writing this one.

Richard Lamoureux April 24, 2013 at 6:35 AM I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Richard D Seal April 24, 2013 at 6:25 AM I could make loads of comments on this Richard but I'm controlling myself ha ha. I'll just say you did a great job on a tricky subject and given me more confidence to enter my effort into your crazy contest. Take care, Richard.

Eileen Manassian April 23, 2013 at 12:05 PM Well, may I add my comments? Just got out of class, though I did read this earlier on in the afternoon. I notice you have made changes, though I did like the original version. I agree with Becca...the flow...ooops...ok um...the choice of words was really captivating and tastefully done! Ooops! Also...my original comment? Hope the smile is still going strong! :) Richard Lamoureux April 23, 2013 at 1:50 PM Add your comments, it's a party! Richard Lamoureux April 23, 2013 at 12:55 PM ;0) its nice to see so many people with a sense of humor. I wasn't sure what the reaction would be. Thanks for adding to the mix.

Timothy Hicks April 23, 2013 at 9:54 AM I admit I wasn't sure what to say after I read this. You are a brave one to write about this subject... haha. It's very comical (and indeed relate-able for us guys) but like Becca said it's not so extreme as to make you feel uncomfortable. I tend to smirk randomly when I'm thinking of something funny... smirking for "other reasons" is good too ;) Enjoyed this! Richard Lamoureux April 23, 2013 at 10:12 AM Thanks Tim, all part of being a guy. Your comment made me smile.
