Sleeping With the Enemy

SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY See what you want to see Don't Look at me! You are staring you are watching; Eat what you can't be Come sleep by my side The whole world is our playground Don't make a sound Stop clowning around In the mist of the night, You keep me from crying I wipe off the taste of your lips You kiss me starting at my inner hips You broke me in a way.. I hate to say your love is better every day I deny you, the one thing I can't say You are my pillow Where I rest my legs, Can you feel me~ This moment feels right I just want to die here, Die here ~ Die here by your side I sleep with my eyes wide open, I sleep with the enemy by my side Come here and hold me After you watched my worlds collide Come here and love me I'm yours till the end of time You can rock me! Under the moon and its rhyme I put it all to a side, how I hate you inside I can't let go I just want you to know I'm a fool in love with you Even if it doesn't show! ~SKAT~ 12- 7- 10

Honestly written from your inner soul. Sometimes you don't get a choice of who you fall in love with. It just happens but not always for the right reason...

Dear Skat, After perusing your poems, I ran across this gem. It really speaks to the beauty of abandoning oneself in the high wire act of intimacy, and the need for the unspoken, as a way to capture the transcendence of the indescribable. wonderful poem lots love michael

This is my first time reading a lyric poem, and I have to say, it was amazing! I never thought lyric poems could be this good! I'm definitely reading your other poems :)

Captivating and erotic with erratic confusion torn in lust. Thank you for commenting on my poem "Timeless Oxford" So this one is a winner, I have yet to learn what that means. Happy New Year. Dr Neil Stewart McLeod
