I held your laughter in my hand, A fragile bird of joyous sound— Yet still I paused, to understand How much of you was truly bound. Love invited me to give, To place your needs ahead of mine; But selfish whispers softly live, And claim your light should intertwine. I loved the way your spirit...

Our Own Worst Enemy
I step out to face the night, shielded like a medieval knight; and count my victories boldly won, need not count far for that is one; drag my fingers roughly through my hair, and stumble on the bones of some lost hare; never to remember peace, but lose myself a bit a piece; life never...

Premium Member Listen To That Still, Small Voice
Proverbs 18:12 “Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.” In the stillness of my senses, I hear a voice the voice – often distant, giving me its opinion when I look at the world and see, it is me that looks to be, the one I hear telling me to give into the...

Selfish reward
Feeling pulse Rhythmic pull Thud and ache A simple tool She lays so still Pale soft and clear A red painted lip Finds man's one weakness Her body firm explore I learn Softer still I find warmth and joy As urges pull between soft wet glow Grabbing hard hips laced in silk Pulse explodes in desires thrill Body one a thrilling Humm I've become her favorite toy...

Selfish and Selfless
In the quiet of night, when the world felt so still, I brought you home, my heart full yet so filled with fear, A baby so small, so fragile and bright, After surgery's touch, we faced each new night. Your father, a shadow who came when it pleased, While I stood alone, with my worries and needs. Three days my mother...

Premium Member No, I don't want to be alone, but if I'm not alone, I become a selfish soul lost in the crowd
No, I don't want to be alone, but if I'm not alone, I become a selfish soul lost in the crowd, Alone in the arms of others, like a traveler lost without a map among unfamiliar faces, If I'm not alone, I become a martyr of silence or a voiceless flatterer amid the clamor, My soul slowly drowns...

Beauty And Wealth
They call it a win when a wealthy man pushing thirty wants a pretty girl who's barely eighteen. A girl still learning the shade of her own skin still waking up from childhood dreams But it doesn't matter, what matters is she looks good beside him. They tell her she's lucky Because he chose her and he'll provide Because she's young and that's Currency Because her skin is...

Can I be Selfish?
Let me have this moment This space that'll forever be lost Let it live on inside me In my heart In my mind Can I be selfish? Do I deserve to be selfish? Why should I have this? Why should I have you? Can I be selfish? Just for a moment The still holds us close I'm afraid Can I be selfish? If I breathe, play will resume all...

Someone said I didn't seem selfish I didn't feel bad There was a time when I used to care for everyone Even behind my back, people would call me selfish For many days, my mind would be unsettled It would take me days to collect myself Now if someone calls me selfish, I don’t feel bad anymore Caring for myself along with everyone Loving myself Thinking about myself If that's being selfish, then yes, I am...

Premium Member You, Me, and the Truth
You said it was my fault And I said you were to blame You said this love, you’d halt I said, this is such a shame You said I deserved the hurt I said you weren’t worth the pain You said I’d need to convert But I said your bitterness was plain You said it was never your mistake Yet, I felt like it...

My selfish Grief
So then, my grief, what do you want of me? To give my self up to your black despair? Or hide away from every memory that leaps from every corner of this fair but heartbroken home we shared together? To run from friends, to shun all human life, avoid all mention of that day – never remembering that once I had...

Too selfish to survive
Isn’t there a selfish desire we all crave for? Purely for the trenches of our minds Roaming in the realms of our hopeless reality. What accumulates and what festers there Is all good and all evil Its total usage of power and of brute and of control. Balance is forbidden Sharing and caring are ripped at the roots No universal laws are...
