Love Walked In

She came up for air and
Found she had gotten lost
In the undercurrent,
Swept away by a forbidden
Yesterday.

Cynthia

Stay Quiet

The moon cries tonight,
For all the fallen,
My lips purse against yours,
It’s so forbidden,
The justified touch,
Shhh…

Brother

Intrusive,
Forbidden,
Off limits,
Repel.
Grievance,
Intractable, 
Vengeance,
Explain.
Young,
Off limits,
Underage.

Forbidden Fruit

Forbidden fruit are
oh so tempting, but they can
often come at cost;
safest tree is one far away
where it cannot be picked.

The Sky Is Low

Standing with shoulders high
My sinking boat hangs on her ocean’s tide
Trolling her confined shores
Over there the sky is low

His Kisses

His kisses were forbidden—intense and forceful, surpassing his first and second. But his third smooch was as cold as a Bollywood kiss.

Premium Member Greedy to the end

It was the last rose.
Forbidden but I had to have it.
Clutched it with no regret.

Forbidden Fruit of Love

Love crosses my path
But I didn't touch
She's forbidden fruit
But she's smokin'
In that tight body
I couldn't resist
So I tap her innocence

Certain stuff’s better left hidden
Eden has fruit that’s forbidden
Pandora’s sweet box
Might release toxic pox
So where’s the pills penicillin?

Sharing This Cup of Light Again

Forbidden colors
Shimmering light
A cup of morning
A spool of night
Whispering through
This Mohawk wind and 
Sharing this cup of light, again

Thread of Dreams

Dangling upon 
       thread of dreams 
forbidden love snagged 
   arousal... unseen, 
for a maiden clove 
                              serene

To Ex-Boyfriend

You took me to the hills
But you abandoned me
I cannot climb down alone
Bring to me a tall ladder
to climb down slowly
via your forbidden heart

HER

A mistress so sinister
Sinfully embraced by
the depths of lusts's 
fulfilment.
Erotic and calm 
as if palmed by a balm,
so sweet yet forbidden.

I Jumped the Gun

I jumped the gun and got shot in the ass, A life lesson I guess I didn't pass.
No longer in gods good graces, I must play my hand forbidden any aces.

On Long Trek Found a Wreck

On Long Trek Found a Wreck

After we went on a long trek,
Had ended up finding a wreck;
Hidden;
Forbidden
Searched through deck to deck.

The Forbidden Fruit

When in need of an Answer
One needs to cut deep
To awaken the Magic 
One slices horizontally, 
Now, I can see it glowing 
From the Heart of the Apple.

The night breeze caressed your skin
Elicit hidden longing
Evoking a collection 
Of enthralled feelings

Behind This Door

I found something
Closely hidden
Behind a door
That says; forbidden

Behind this door
A room full of mystery
Unknown desires
Ready to become history

Forbidden lipstick;
Detrimental to the soul
Powerful than any sword
A near death foretold;
Changes in lifestyle took place
Thanks to God's amazing grace

Unspoken

Her heart hurts since Penzance
An oft meeting now 'à outrance'
Reckless romance recants 
Forbidden faith’s life dance
Sparked suddenly from slight glance
