Premium Member And Then I Kissed Him - Collaboration With Tim Smith
Hot date
Can’t wait

We're at
My flat

Cute eyes
Nice thighs

Admit
She’s fit

So sweet
Must eat

We dine
Sublime

First Kiss
Sheer bliss

Soft peck
On neck

Tongue's twirl
Toes curl

First base
Hearts race

Undressed
Bare breast

Blimey
She’s ‘HE’

No joy
Ladyboy

Fussy
Pussy

Night ends
As friends

Premium Member Find Me Then
Find me then, when gilded ruby sky
Adorns mauve twilight on canvas pink
Pleasing ardor of magenta dreams
Tinting smiles in brushstrokes tangerine;
Find me then, when ocean's blue bosom
Scintillates waves' vermilion passions
As sun's orange glow folds in embrace
Caressing kiss of love --find me then.

Premium Member By Then We'll Be Dead
Whispers and intrigue 
and things that shan’t be said,
not uttered or stuttered--
minds shuttered instead.

You cannot, you shall not,
believe your own eyes.
You must put your trust in 
our false facts and lies.

Sit down, and be quiet! 
You don’t need to think!
Ignore feigned enemies, 
when you catch...

Premium Member Until Then
When her smiles are no longer real
And she laughs only now and then
If every thought is now kept sealed
Hold her until she feels again

When memories only bring tears
And joy's lost in "remember when"
In the darkness quiet her fears
Hold her until she feels again 

A heart...

Premium Member What I Should Have Said Then
Remember that night, one of so many of course
When the waitress asked if we were on our first date
We’d talked for three hours till our voices were hoarse
The laughter we shared no one could create

It must have been the joy in our hearts she saw
For...

DISUNITY THEN UNITY
 
Last Episode of Pure Fantasy.

Fireball always seems to take center stage,
Except in the last episode it was with absolute rage,
Echoman has secretly loved this ravishing beauty
Lost her to a human whilst she was on duty!
There were good and bad super heroes
Throughout my...

Premium Member Then I Saw the Light
Too many years spent in depression buried beneath a pile of regrets
pills of every color aside my glass, cuts of every size scabs included
Broken pieces of my heart scattered from Newfoundland to Toronto
I'd forgotten the taste of content and the sound of jabbering friends

They tried...

Premium Member That was Then, This is Now

I once saw a man with kaleidoscopic eyes,
reflecting in hues of periwinkle and persimmon.
His heart illuminated in shades of scarlet, 
marigold and clementine,
releasing rainbow ink from his psychedelic pen,
brushing over his personal poetic sins. 

Free from regret and pain.
He sat upon his throne as the...

Premium Member Find Me Then
Find me then – when silence surrounds me;
when the sun has climbed down from his throne
and left behind magenta magic.
When I look out at night’s profoundness,
find me then, for I will be waiting -
like La Luna with her entourage
of stars. And when I am captured...

Now And Then

My heart still thinks about you – Now and Then --
My arms still want to hold you – Now and Then –
And, even though I know you’re gone,
Your mem’ry just keeps hanging on
And I still think about you – Now and Then.

My friends...

Premium Member And Then I Opened That Door- For Comp
(For Competition 'And then I opened THAT door', sponsor- John Lawless)


My relationship had broken down, when love ran out of gas
so down life's dark and lonely road I dragged my sorry ass.
Could have done with company on such a painful walk
my passenger I'd left behind,...

If the Gods Aren'T Sick, Then Crazy They Must Be
I felt the touch of the breeze on my face from my sleep
Oh! With the morning sun, i woke with a flip
And there staring at me, is a lady in her teen
I, surprised but not frightened
Gave her a questioning look
"Who are you?"; I asked as...

Premium Member Way Back Then When I Was Ten
I was shot by Cupid's tainted dart
And puppy love awakened my sleeping heart
Tried to impress with exaggerated tales
Mark the box letters sent through the mail

Hunted and fished for sport and food
Baseball games with the neighborhood crew
Dirt always flying from old gravel roads
Wearing my brother's, hand...

Premium Member Back Then
Looking back at the summers 
Way back then, when I was ten
The golden sun was still a friend
And the world was good, around each bend

I'm riding my bike, with the breeze in my face
With time on my side, I am winning a race
Where life seems...
