Premium Member Tongue Tied

So I wanted to say
Something nice
To brighten your day
But my tongue 
Got tied from
Your beauty 
And all I could say
was hello

Premium Member Pete

There was a boy named Pete
His joy was to dance and sing
He was rather tongue tied 
Despite he has plenty pride
Dancing with two left feet

Premium Member Tax Expert

There was a young math whiz named Egbert
Who fancied himself a tax expert
Touting tax tips he tried
Till terribly tongue-tied
Never more will he overexert

Church Ladies Choice

The Church ladies love tongue-tied vicars
Adept at removing their knickers
For many have found
That whetting the mound
Just beats the Hell out of bootlickers

Deflowered Like a Dog

deflowered devoured
blood trickles 
and runs  
was it good 
was it fun 
tell darling 
speak hun 
more than 
tongue tied
I lied 
you trust 
we thrust
and than you 
died

Tongue Tied With a Tiki

Tongue Tied with A Tiki

What I did was to take off my tiny tiki,
And what is left on body was my bikini,
Told by tone,
A party thrown
On an island where men are a Meany.

                                            a fateful timing
                                 truth doubts - uncertain future ~

Premium Member She's Magic

As I timidly stare at her
She pulls on my strings and knots them,
Making my smile permanent.
My words then come out tongue tied,
Though my desire is as sure
As her beauty.

Eyeful

eyeful afterthought
all wasted up
catch a glimpse of the bird's eye view
power of speech grant an audience
hidden message
moments of panic
in person short sighted
tongue-tied word for word
humanity is thus lost

Said With Tongue Had Been Denied

Said With Tongue Had Been Denied

What he did say with tongue was denied,
Then would end up with his tongue tied;
Saw each eye blink,
And started to think,
About all of those who in a war had died.

Tongue tied and twisted my mouth is
I can’t say limerick as it is
It’s not very hard
To yell “rook card”
To say I have some winning hands

Premium Member By accident

As
if by
accident
a fellow died
an arrest denied
did he fry on purpose
no one cared no one ran in
all kept silent, as if tongue tied 
one body burning, sheeting on fire 
a whore lit a smoke he got lost inside

Touting tax tips he tried
Till terribly tongue-tied
Twisted tongue tending to twine

Premium Member Less Said

The whimpering wind outlasts the storm.
Embers smolder beyond the flame.
What's withheld, unsaid, hones the ear,
Patience in pondering deepens meaning.
Until the tongue-tied uncoils its pearls.
Silence is the elephant in the room.

Passing By

Passing by

I think I’ve found
That which I seek
In the curls
On her cheek

Which
With gentle grace
Frame the beauty
Of her face

Yet when she smiles
Find nothing to say
Tongue tied and blushing
Just walk away

Passing by

Nyx

You called just to say
You’ve had enough of me
Distraught
Distracted with thoughts irrelevant
Sitting in dissonance
And starry eyed innocence
Tongue-tied
My heart died
It fell into the hands of Nyx
And thrown into the river Styx.

Premium Member Knotty Tryst

Rolling in
Meadows in her hair
A tango mass of
Butterflies
And what knots

Roped in

Tongue tied

With a pollen smeared smile
Smack smitten by every cinch

Love At a Distance

I see your face and my heart thunders

pulse quickening, tongue tied

should I speak? tell how I feel?

but you would just laugh

i know you would laugh

and i would feel even more foolish

hurt more than now

should i chance it?

better not.

Hi Was All You Said

I'm a shipwreck on a sandy beach, 
Tongue-tied, you say hi and you
Walk by, I can't pretend
I don't wish all the time
That you were mine.

I'm a bomb waiting to explode,
It's easier to deny these
Butterflies, your dark eyes, 
Tinted cherry red cheeks;
You looked at me, hi was all you said...
