Love Of Lightning -

Strike me with your ligjtning of love,
electrify every fiber of my being 
with the violet voltage 
that your soul can unleash,
spell love upon my soul 
with a bolt of tongue thunder,
make me vibrate vulnerable,
deliver unto me the raw of passion 
flashing like a cyclone 
of lethal caress,
buckle me blind to my knees 
pleading for revelation ruthless,

I tremble in your storm of seduction,
bleeding straight into your mouth 
of wet fire,
shock me strikingky into the center of salvation,
elevate my erected ethos of eternity,
let me lavish You with a lodestone 
of unmistakable loyalty,
I pour upon your majesty 
a lava from the bowels of bravery,
I harness your storm heat 
in the palms of my oceanic urge,
exploding through a riptide of desire surge,
I want every part of your wild atmosphere,
the lips of your thunder tempting my testimony 
to speak the truth of temptation,

Light my sky with lust,
make me star gaze 
into your eyes of terrible amor,
I want you like I want the crown of the Universe,
I collapse into your catastrophe of love,
knowing that you will not abandon Me,
that You will serve Me the love that I need -

J.A.B.

What can I even say about this poetically passionate and enticing piece .. this streaked the most beautiful lightning of love.. adore that title! And your diction as well as techniques throughout are mind-blowing, dear poet. I agree with Ink, the most calming lightning n thunder I've ever heard! Your descriptions here really left me speechless. Such cleverness and ingenuity! The first poem I've read of yours, and this definitely is a fav ~

“ elevate my erected ethos of eternity” say what? What what? :O “ a lava from the bowels of bravery,” who says that? Gosh! Where do you come up with such brilliance honestly! “ I want every part of your wild atmosphere, the lips of your thunder tempting my testimony ” wow! The aching want and yearning and the sureness of your hearts need so palpable! Truly this is an ineffable read! I just love the romantic nature of it and the cleverness of your diction! Like no other! This is definitely a fave

~ your way with words is like no other, how youv used “ lodestone” and so much more here is just unique! Along with “ voltage” intensifying the emotional depth of romance! You write romanticism like no other and I am just about to go like all wow in your comments, not ashamed, of how I am so impressed by such poetic language! I especially love the softness of your voice and how you portray trust for this storm! “I collapse into your catastrophe of love, knowing that you will not abandon Me” WOW

Dear Justin, I am just speechless, this is I must say one of the finest, best poems Iv read on lightning, and storm like love which is catastrophic and so very ferocious! After reading yours, I feel like my poem is so very inferior, because you have not just used poetic techniques like oxymorons, alliterations, imagery, personification of elements found in nature but also expressEd love and devotion and desire in a very delicate manner which made me think ~ lightning never sounded so calm before

Lightning is silent within the flash, then the bolt discharges raw divine percussion of pulse, and then only the shock of ionized silence remains as in making love Poetess...J.A.B.
