Do I miss you, or do I miss the smoke -
Of your promise on my lips?
Both are warming on a chilly night,
But here I struggle to breathe, I choke.

Premium Member Threesome

A bored nymphomaniac from Bude
Had so many boyfriends they queued
I once heard it said
She liked three in a bed
Which seems just a little bit rude

A Rainy Day Again

Rain, a rainy day again
In that scorched land
Passions have burnt it.
What is keeping it alive?
Rain, an those rainy days
Poured down from our eyes.

By Day or By Night, I Still Wish You In My Sight

By day, I turn the thought of him into anger and let it harden. By night, I ache for his knock, for him to cross the threshold and find his way back to me.

Razed Heart, Hopeful Soul

Whispers of your skin, a piercing ember
Razing my soul, in heart's December
You spurn my soul, still I'm holding on tight
To the oath of your love, a guiding light

I am learning there is no one greater than his likeness.
I am always loving the power of his handsomeness.

Premium Member Like A Father

I often feel as though my first love is like a father:
Fulfilling my needs, but he always leaves me to wonder
If he would commit to being the one meant to be my lover.

Love Doesn'T Exist

IF I wear my heart on my sleeve
WE'RE both going to be
TOO positively
AFRAID of the imagination's ability
TO seep into reality and
TRY to fulfill two lovers' fantasies

Lately

lately
my longing 
for love
has let me go
and self love
has been found 
much more relevant
to my search
for those 
who will  
take me as i am
or take their leave

For that same reason, he includes me in his daily things,
The reason being what he has for me is his secret longings.

Touch

"How can you not believe in love at first sight, if you have ever seen her?
She is everything at first sight,
and if tomorrow when I wake; I am blinded,
I would love her at first touch."
Form: Verse

Long

A soul that longs for your embrace.
The warmth of your palms,
That touches and melts my skin.
That kind of love, that I lost on that day
Is now haunting me, with all the memories I keep.

Love

He stroked my hair
I yielded my heart
Into Him

His eyes opened doors
Inside me
I thought were closed

My longing is filled
With His divine love
I am set free

Beauty's, Red Rose

Lying her loveliness gently  back; again
Parting love's fragrant, scentful thighs..
Soft their joy as silk these skies; pastel
Pink, blue, her beautiful eyes; butterfly
Petals arching her hips longing my kiss.

A Love Worth Fighting For

Hopeless thoughts daunted with

Boundless irrefutable feelings

Rip and tear at heart strings.


Stinging eyes and swollen lips

Cry out longing for what they

Can’t and never will have….

A love worth fighting for.

Presence

As I traversed beneath the early morning glow-
With cotton candy skies illuminating the beginning hours--
I found my heart calling to your in the midst of the beauty,
Begging to bask in its glory with you by my side.

Angel of Atlantis

jagged heart hidden
behind hazelnut stone
wicked riddles rolling
inside angelic lips,
petite powerful tongue

connect our souls
my milian, mermaid
princesses don’t belong
under water forever;
even angels rebel

I Wish I Could Tell You

I wish

I had the words

and that

I could tell you

why

how

but like the blades in my throat

I cannot

I can only write it in my note

and hope

that one day

they’ll say

what I never could.

You Complete Me

My eyes look for you
My heart bleeds the truth
My spirit enters your soul completely
My life is yours
My finger crave your skin
My mind harbor you
My body is made whole
By doing the above
Reaching up
You complete me

Intrigue - the Art of Revenge

Ingenious deception
Nothing revealed at conception
Tormenting his longing soul
Revenge for the one he stole
Implicating a connection
Genuine heartfelt affection
Until the truth he does receive
Entangled lies will decieve
