the earth saves me from the pull

Waves slapping me all over my body
rocked by the riptide of your embrace;
Rough and tumble hanky panky,
there is nothing left to chase....

I'm caught
in the riptide
of your magnetism, 
and I blissfully undulate
along.

Riptide
When life is like a strong undertow
Taking you where you don’t want to go
Stay still, just wait for a while
Think about the glory days and smile
And when the riptide subsides
And you are walking away from harm
Remember when the water is no longer calm
Do not dismay, it changes back with the tides...

Can You See What I See
Can you see what I see dancing in the rain can you feel what I feel as the riptide carries me downstream no tomorrow's no today's past memories fade away clouds of shame showers of rain ribbons around my neck medals worn in vain life's simple now with no more pain can you see what I see as I dance in the rain

Premium Member What Is Love
From the realms of heart and soul
Sleep a feeling that cannot be seen
Heard or touch by the five senses
Inspiring the most subtle love in Earth
Provoking unconfessable feelings
Greatest songs have been written
Telling the riptide of joy and sorrows
Manifested with ink and tears
Savored by many at least once
Denied to others by unseen forces...

A Short Attention Span Poem
Time Warped into an era of emotional recluse---
Foamy white waves cover me like a riptide from hell ---
My body is alabaster, but my soul is liquid mercury---
Soon I will be libereated from this sinful, greed infested, worn torn
and enviromentally raped orb ---
Which is suspended in a universe created by a jealous God ---
That is littered with lifeless planets, solar storms and black holes....

"oceans of My Mind"
I'm swimming in an ocean of decisions...
The water so deep that falls into confusion..
Riding the current into different situations...
A cool wave of pleasure that starts a sensation...
Thrown up and down in a riptide of deceptions..
I see the land so close but no conclusions...
The tide carries me to the shore with no reservations..
A Poet paints a picture with no illusions..
A ship, a boat, or a raft are not my salvation......

Lost
Lost Set adrift The current swift My needs are lost at sea The horizon’s plane I’m near insane There’s a storm in store for me The driving rains The crashing waves The wind rips my sun-scorched skin I was battered and bruised And deathly confused When a love raft pulled me in Your love had pulled me in Our love had just begun When the riptide pulled us out Apart Away Alone © 2012 Jeffrey Spencer

Premium Member Pink Champagne and Satin Opera Gloves
As wild as unbridled seas,
soft as mist, a spindrift tease. 
Night stars swoon and fall from skies; 
constellations fill her eyes. 
Every leaf stirs in her wake, 
bottom to top, mountains quake.
Beaux like grapes bunch on her vine, 
blood in veins she turns to wine.
Kisses sipped, her cherry lips. 
Saké nip, rock ‘n roll hips;
tongue-and-groove celebration,
sensual saturation. 
Her riptide lures sand from shore, 
tsunami, when she wants more....

Current Float the Love
The current is pulling me away...

Over powering forces slowly push 
me away, inching away
Love fades, my heart breaks...

Riptide and breaking waves,
A thousand pounds of water
Planting my face in the sandy, 
mirky water.

Lungs scream for air,
scrambling limbs, struggle to
balance my body upright.
Pressure in my body is about to explode.

Life fading, love fading
currents float the love back
into my life, release the pressure,
Give life......

Drowning
Do you ever feel as though you're drowning?
Caught in a riptide of emotions?

Do you ever lose sight of which way is up?
Spinning wildly out of control?

Do you ever feel as though you're the only one alive?
Or like you're a ghost among the living?

Do you ever cause pain to those you love when you're trying to help?
Like a fire that grew to large?

Well, I do.
I know how these emotions feel.
I wish I was the only one who ever had to feel this way...
