They say I’m sensitive
Negative connotation
A shroud they want to wrap me in
And put the blame on me
It’s only a joke, you see
Overly sensitive
That’s me

I smile
Positive connotations, my wile
Oh…I’m OVERLY sensitive
It’s true
The throbbing and pulsing
That makes other women sigh
Takes me to the stratosphere high
Senstations multiplied 
I sigh
I cry
I die
And lie
Open
Sensitive to every touch
To every nuance
To every breath
Body quivering
Mind in overdrive
I thrive
On pleasure
Every cell
Sensitive
To touch
To tongue
To lips
To fingers
To thoughts….
To…..W~O~R~D~S
Dipped in sensitivity
Meant to awaken
The sultry sensual me

Oh...I'm OVERLY sensitive
To my lover’s needs
Wanting to please
Tease
Make him weak…
Unable to speak
Waiting for that butterfly caress
That unbuttoning of the dress
That peek a boo see through lace
That wanton hungry…”feed me” face
I trace
every place
sensitive to the signs
that make him come alive
To satiate, my pride
I rule and provide
His momentum...I guide
OVERLY sensitive
till want and need
are released...freed!

OH….I’m OVERLY sensitive
Yes, It's true
and here's a warning
a warning to you!!!
Don’t mess with me
Unless you want to see
Anarchy!!!
I’ll draw blood
In your "knock her down" revelry
I'll win 
I'll fly and be free!!

I’m OVERLY sensitive
That’s me
But I’d rather be this way
Desire delirious
Mayhem mad 
Passion proned
Happy honed
OVERLY sensitive people
Like ME
We....
LIVE life
Moment by moment
Second by sensual second
sensitive and alive
we thrive
we survive
Overly sensitive
ALIVE!

What a lovely and emotive poem, Eileen! You show things as they are, no beating around the bush, no hiding behind excuses. Those who read your poetry know by now exactly what you mean by overly sensitive. I can be sensitive, emotional, although like Peter said, I don't always show it. Full marks to you:) Hugs // paul

Powerful, Eileen! You know who you are and refuse to be anyone else! You are a masterpiece created by God to be the person He created you to be! Your sensitivity allows you creative expression that shines forth in your poetry. An excellent write! Love, Kim

You are very kind, Kim. I know. I sometimes question God about it. I seem to be a bundle of sensitivities...and that a rather large bundle! ;) He knows what he's doing. I just need to get my act together. Thanks for looking favorably on this though it has a streak of rebellion in there. He knows....Thanks, dear. Hugs

Bless you I am a sensitive soul emotionally So I get you, life brought so much heartache to my door, and some words just cut deeper than a knife, but God is working on it, he needs me sensitive to others needs to help them spiritually but some of the simplest words make me cry, Sounds dart, but some wounds are deep and need more time, a good write, I'm glad I'm not the only one in the world sensitive

Diane....So sweet of you to visit. I know I went a little overboard here, but I'm so tired of hearing that word..."oversensitive". There definitely are advantages to being overly sensitive. "Sensitive people suffer more, but they love more and dream more." This is a lovely quotation. Yes, it's called empathy and compassion. I'm glad you are open to God's voice....Thanks so much for visiting me again. I'll be right over. Hugs
