Old-Time Moves of No Regret

Through steely blue the spirits dance
The old-time moves of no regret
Begin to mingle retrospect
Inventing history of romance
To give new love a sporting chance
Demanding truth of intellect
Cavorting trust amid respect
As lovers share a fleeting glance.

A moment lost to longing stares
A promised kiss upon a smile
The hidden wants of visual style
That leads the knowing unawares
Revealing thoughts the heart declares
The talking eyes that stay awhile
Like the sun on an old sundial
For love has sworn its place is there.

If

Let not olden days aspire 
All about the you and me 
In wild, wild winter of desire  
Longing and longing to be 
In each other’s warmth

Love is in the air, they say
Oh, with it the minded minds
Vibrantly wish to live and sway  
Embracing between the lines
Speechless faith does harm

Now that we both are in the 
Arms of the great unbeknownst
Never been such our history
Crazy us that we surely own
Yonder mountain of distrust 

Let not this fungus of love
Overwinter in dead leaves of the
Verdant tree of such belove
Entrapping souls to live in the
Same old alleys of our lust

Love is in the air, they say
Ah, with thoughts and dreams
If ego did not part our ways
Love, would it be so deem
Irresistible like us of yesterday

Come To Know Its True

I've come to know it's true


I've come to know it's true
Baby, I'm so in love with you.
Every time I hear your laughter
Love just fills me with longing for you.
I don't want to rush things so far
I still need to know if you're for real.

I'm afraid to fall in love again.
I guess you know what it's like to break.
If it turns out that you're not for me,
Maybe I have to set you free.
It wouldn't be easy, letting you go your way.
Memories of you will be kept hidden.

I'll get on with my life
I hope someday you'll cross my path.
And if I see you happy and free
I'd pray, wishing it was me.

Still Love Exists

Still I feel those footprints
Still I remember those walks
Still I feel that unknown longing for you
Still I remember all our talks

Still I just want you is to smile
Still I want you with me
Still I feel that this place is an exile
Still I don't know why do I feel so

Still you're in my thoughts
Still you're in my cries
Still you're in my every dream
Still you shed as tears from my eyes

Still I love you like anything
Still I want you back in my arms
Still I'm poor even though I've everything
Still I'll keep waiting for you, My love.

The Dreaming Tree

It is not the pale moon that brought you here
nor the longing for a sober night. There is
a sliding melody between your footsteps,
and your lips whisper a song
full of vowels to the wind.

I can read the sorrow in your eyes, better
than the scintillating symmetry of the stars. And
if you could feel the pulse of my quivering roots
underneath the weary soles of your feet, you may know

how to use my branches for lumber
during those nights when you need warmth.
Use my leaves as shelter, when the falling snow seeks
to numb your skin. When you are angry,
you are free to peel off parts of me. And carve out
little bits of your secret thoughts on my bark
when you are lonely.

All I want, is to be
the shade that protects you
from the scorching eyes
of the world.


Hope For a Hope

The river of time is flowing and laving every second of my life
Wish I can make it stop even just for a while
I am buried under my own thoughts and it’s hard to breathe
My soul is drowned in the tears of grieve 
My heart sleeps without waking in the arms of sadness
And I feel myself vanishing, in my fake existence
My pain is drenched in my tears
My eyes are facing my worst fear
Waiting for a cold wind to whisper in my ear
that, the one I am longing for is somewhere near
To know the feeling of your touch, has become my life’s bane
And I began to burn in your love’s ignited flame
Hold me tight in yourself before I start to fade
Loving you is the only thing for which I am made

Winter Longing's

Crisp cold air moves in slowly expectedly.
How nice it can feel after long hot haze filled days of summer.
Gradually the chill embraces all.
And all succumbs to mother winters icy graces.
Trees lay dormant.
Water rests in a shiny crystal state.
And the ground sleeps under its insulating blanket.
Not all rests during these grey times.
So much more grows and thrives then the darkened cold ground reveals.
But like the ground it must remain covered insulated from all around it.
For if it is seen it shall not survive the blustery Gaze that it will be subjected to.
so it sits waits... but growing.
An enigma in a world full of certainties
It lies unmoving through many months of the grey and grows stronger and larger 
with each blast of icy cold.
Forever longing for the thaw.
Yet knowing it may never arrive.
As the days grow longer it waits, waits for the summer perhaps then it can bloom.
Taking comfort in the fact.
That although the release into the sun would be oh so freeing.
That the cold grey is its mother and here it can stay forever.
Hidden continuing to grow never to be harmed isolated, 
OH winter longing's

The Dawn So Bright

Oh to hold you in these loving arms, to see your crystal eyes 
Time, it seems, loves to hold the longing heart, yet I will hold you still 
In the setting of the night, we rise to kiss the dawn so bright

Premium Member Our First Night

Many months we have conversed
we take the decision to finally meet.
my introduction now rehearsed
for I am so longing to greet
this beauty oh so sweet.

Along the promenade we walked
the wind blowing her lovely hair.
swapping giggles as we talked
admiring what she wears
for in her eyes I long to stare.

Our hotel room we finally reach
still chatting, holding hands.
kissing between our wanting speech
relenting to our wanting demands.
two desiring to share their commands.

Face to face, touch of lips
adventurous hands in loving glide.
to the floor our clothes slip
falling before our pride
naturally we sensuously guide.

Our Beat

Ring of heat around my neck
Blooming from his thirst moist lips
Eyes stay swallowed of his scent
And my mouth hungers your kiss
Together this moment my longing bliss

The Sound of Silence

When we first started dating
I had no expectation of forever
I was content with the immediate
And enjoyed each moment with her
All the mundane chatter
And flirtatious wordplay
Leading to the longing looks
And the sentimental words of love
Back then time evaporated,
Hours seeming to pass in seconds 
And in all those moments
Precluding our life together
The one thing we never had was silence

But that was then and this is now
And now the silence deafens me
No more chatter
Words are used miserly
As if endowed with great value
And not to be wasted
On flirtation or sentiment
Words, when used, now bite
With venomous spite
Moments now last an eternity
Clocks that once seemed to race through time
Run now in slow motion
Her contemptuous looks wither me
Longing now for my extinction

Unchanged

I have yet to understand how guys think
It seems like it's based off just hormones
They'll work you up till they get what  they want
Then you're on your own
They don't care how your day went or what you're really about
Friendship is totally thrown out the window as you get older
But they're good at making you feel beautiful for a night

It's amazing how one in a million turns into something more
To know that you're safe
To know that you don't need that anymore
Just longing to be held
Knowing that they're yours
I've finally found that
and I'm waiting for it to fall
it seems like doubt likes to creep in my mind

My Dear Duncan

my dear duncan 
My dear, 

you're so far away and my heart so full of longing that the only way to relieve my 
grief was to write this letter. 
You know, sometimes I think it would be nice to have the possibility to keep certain 
feelings in a "box" ... 
I'll explain: it is good to miss once in a while, but sometimes it hurts too much and 
the absence of the o...ther becomes unbearable. That's what I'm feeling now, so is 
this longing that I'd like to keep in a safe box or in a fragrant that I could open 
quickly and eventually, like when you open a bottle of perfume or lotion. 
However, what I'd really like was never felt this kind of thing. Wish you were always 
around, always ready to listen and close all the words of affection that I have to tell 
you. 
Come back soon!

Magical Love

Love is a feeling deep down inside
Love is a feeling one just cannot hide
Butterflies flutter in the stomach they churn
Once bitten twice shy? But we never learn

Magical powers take over so much
Yearning and longing for that first touch
The magic doesn’t last but it sparks like mad
Making one feel young again never sad

Smitten with love the power is so strong
Having to give in to it before too long
Rose coloured glasses, tint the feeling so bright
Senses are heightened, like the stars at night

The powers that be take over our lives
Proposals are made to make us wives
Love goes on and settles like first snow
True love will survive false love will go
