Premium Member Shadow’s Confession
It’s not just about shining. It’s being seen while shining Without someone throwing a blanket over your flame, because they’re scared it will burn brighter than theirs. When light enters a room, it does not negotiate with darkness. Darkness simply scrambles for cover Guilt when it’s cornered slithers in shame Where shadows confess just by meeting the light, no speaking, no...

monotony
she shows her battle scars and all i feel is numbness, he flaunts his maidens and i overlook the dumbness. she cries woes of heartbreak and i cannot feel pity, he weeps waterfalls of failure and i fake some integrity. she hurts me the most when she berates her busy nature, he wounds me the deepest when he complains of...

Premium Member A Sonnet by This Arrant Bard, an Other
A sonnet by this arrant bard, an other, whose sole half-brother, a real piece of work, and single parent (mother like no other!), together were no warm nor loving perk. In her heart, mother disowned me in life. My younger half-brother begrudged my...

I Don't Understand
I don't understand it And I never understood it How vehement disdain can beat in the chest And how vitriol can dance in the mind with unrest The cold, blank stares that quickly turn to a fake smile when I turn and our eyes meet Too late, that crooked smile can't disguise the dark, desolate eyes that bitterly speak Yes. They...

Clinch Fist Pillow Cuddle
Machine gun heart riddled with shades of grey. A mind once sharpened by your own forked tongue. Lovers' lips part with rumbles of a cannon. Dew licked satin sheets - the highway to carnal desire. Silhouettes of freshly washed skin dance in the night. Passion rising like the souls of the departed. Where do you sleep after your thirst is quenched? Where...

The Ballad of the Part-Time Lover
Beneath the glow of neon light, where secrets love to hide.. Two shadows meet in whispered steps, forbidden side by side. A game of passion, sly and swift, where hearts and caution blend.. A dance of stolen glances.. where the night will know no end. The city hums, the streetlights blink, a world of hush and heat.. And in the...

Desiring What I Cannot Have
She’s so ideal She smiles at everyone she sees. At the sight of someone so ethereal, The people feel at ease. Her perfect hair falling down, The way ocean waves couldn’t compare. When one looks into her blue eyes they drown, One couldn’t help but stare. When you hear her voice, The angels stop and listen. You have no choice, To impress her would be your...

Run Girl Run
Run, Girl, Run She was just eleven, small and spry, Her father said, “You’re due, oh my…” A spanking, harsh, the kind she knew, But this time she thought, “Not today, not you.” He called her brothers, big and loud, “Go catch your sister—make me proud!” She took off running, barefoot and wild, With twenty meters head start, a desperate child. The boys gave...

I will never know
I will never feel your wetness slide down my cock Simply because I do not have one. I will never know your texture beyond 3-4 inches Simply because my fingers are not long enough. I can hold you and kiss you, But I wonder if my longing for you will ever be satisfied. I can make you cum, But would it...

Forced Rhymes
A whiff of my kitchen, a medicinal pill, the side order of rain drools at a windowsill. An utterance precedes a service; the rumble, the window slides itself shut. A bumble bee ricochets off a glass pane moaning louder than our train of thought waylaid with bacon sizzling up a storm. There's an anxiousness trapped inside as warm as indoors petrichor's marshmallow mood steamed...

love me please
Perhaps I’ll tear my eyes away Let my crimson spill and stray Sew my wounds with piercing thread If you’d love me though I bled Death does not seem so grim Nor does the noose’s cold, tight hymn Summon Venus, my muse Let her claim what I shall lose Caress my flesh till breath runs dry Let crimson drip as fingers tie Stab me with...
