Best Hotel Room Poems

In a hotel room I lie on my side
watching him scramble to find his tie...

She lay with gloom upon the bed
as outside blinked a garish red
which found its way into her room.
Upon the bed she lay with gloom.

She lay with grief; she lay with rue,
with shabby walls a gray milieu
and circumstance the unmoved thief.
She lay with rue; she lay...

The ghats,grey serpents in green thickets
cool and moist, dampens restless midgets

There ,in  a hotel ,in the lushness of the tropic's crown
are trees mighty tall with neat flights of stairs hanging down.

stood  perched on trees, a cabin each of uneven logs
with wooden planks hand-polished...

In A Hotel Room

In a hotel room, she lies, literally to herself.
Their meetings filled with desire are brief.
How can she put her dignity on a shelf
Lost, between the crumpled sheet.

As a friend I helplessly watch 
As her happiness turns to shame 
All the joy before...

The Hotel brochure came by post
and told me all that I should know.
With not much time to make a choice,
I booked my Room and set to go.

The pictures showed a sunken bath,
with fluffy towels and marble loo;
a typhoon shower, terrazzo tiles,
it even had a bidet,...

Thin walls reveal, too well,
the aspirations of my neighbors.

Quiet moans mingle
with the drone of TV,
a strange mélange of real
and imagined eroticism.

As their headboard
bangs a jumbled tattoo,
I join them, gasping
like a hooked carp at our shared
moment of completion.

I wonder if they
search for a tissue,
too....

First time to travel in a far away land,
Too excited to explore white sands,
My friend and I check in a hotel,
Economy room, price I can’t tell.

Overlooking a great beach to hail,
At a balcony I can feel a cool air,
With a simple hotel room we stayed,
I...

Another day, another town
Another hotel room.
I’m thinking of my beloved home,
With roses all in bloom.

My wife is waiting for me there,
My children and my dog,
While I sit in this lonely room
Engaged in monolog.

There was a time I thought I would
Enjoy the traveling life,
But that was...

A feeling of sensual anticipation 
U ndue pressures on our emotions
G irl  hands over keys to lovers convention

Why did they go? They always go,
Whether they saw me I simply don’t know,
They’re here for a night and then go away,
And leave me behind, all alone I must stay,
And wait for the loved ones to whom I belong,
But I’ve been waiting now for ever...

A half-full bottle of scotch
stands in the middle of a stool,
as the wind blows away the cigar
ashes away from the ashtray

Besides the stool,
a king-size bed carries the weight
of a man holding a cigar on his mouth,
planning who the next victim will be;
a person who is...

In a hotel room together, locked behind the door
A king-sized bed and heater, who could ask for more.

The bath is built for two the bubbles already on the bill
Bubble bath for lovers there can be no bigger thrill.

To wash the bubbles from his skin as...

IN A HOTEL ROOM

Confusion is what I felt when I entered the hall way
My heart was startled as we entered the door way
With a man who seemed not a stranger to me
Eyes of unseen beings waiting for what's about to set free

Reincarnation is not something...

For a long time there I stood;
Yet another entrance to hell.
Though I already understood,
There's this feeling I can't tell.

Scent of sin present in the air
Reminder of what I must do.
Life has not been all that fair,
Still, I wish today is untrue.

The door to hell is...
