Whispers
Tuck your nose behind my ear Speak so softly I cannot hear Lips pressed gently to my skin Murmur nothing again, again Slip your fingers up my throat Utter hushed words so remote Speak into my eager mind Words my heart may only find Whisper luscious words so sweet About how much you've wished to meet Soft skin brushed across my lips Plaintive words with fingertips Speak as though your eyes were blind Your wish for love, deep to my mind Trailing touches 'cross my heart Murmured words in silent art

Please don't tell me how great I am If you're just gonna walk away Frankly, I don't give a damn I'm here and now, let's live the day Don't let's wait another year Before we dare embrace again Falter to love and not to fear Spread wide your heart, let love begin Please don't waste another word In lieu of love, then run from me They're all the same; they've all been heard Don't tell us both I'm best left free When it's excitement in your ear And rambling thoughts that sound like fear In the stillness of your heart's rush Is still the shadow of joyful blush You found a soul with a widespread heart Embarked with a mind whose life is art So, come back, now, into widespread arms Let me thrill you with feminine charms Don't tell me, please, how great I am If you're going to walk away Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn Carpe diem, love; sieze me today

Prisms of Love
Don’t you know? I long to feel the skin upon your face, The brush of whiskers nettled on your chin And when I reach to touch, you to embrace I find that I am forced to reach within For - don’t you know? I tremble all the day and all night long My body eager, vibrating as you strum The heartstrings of such a familiar song Your fingers not yet on flesh; still, for you I thrum And I cannot foresee another way Than dancing deeply in a world unknown So I will live and love another day That one day, maybe soon, this depth be shown That, maybe one day soon, I will be yours And you’ll be mine, in body too; That one day soon, we’ll dance through doors In ethereal worlds we’ll live, both I and you So, don’t you know? My heart is bound to yours and lost to me It’s yet my mind you kiss, that you must woo And I, lost forever in this fantasy Somehow made real, this life, by your love true And - you must know! Forever, in this time That you are yours, and also I am thine; That I belong to me, and you are mine! That we are ours, forever-love sublime

From Taming the Monkeys of Mind
Roll,
and splash around
through my warmest ink;
let it streak your body,
spilling into mind,
while
steadily
warming
your bluest veins.
Step barefoot through
my intentions,
stripped,
wading this man’s
inner everything.
Close
your eyes,
allowing yourself
to become the parchment
of love’s enduring
landscape;
catch
the pulse
of inspiration’s
heavy rains.

~ Amazing poetry. ~
Just reach out and touch me…
The sun shines outside upon wavering leaves,
Clothes spin rhythmically in the hall’s machine,
And the kitten climbs over the hills of my hips,
Massaging tiny claws into my slender waist:
Intoxications, all, thick with poignant quiet,
Tense with the slipping void,
Tight with the ticking of time,
Deep in the afterglow of you.
A chill blankets me,
I curl into the shadow of a new-old energy;
Visions billow behind closed eyes,
Dreams-wants-desires filling the miles between:
Sailing the seas, spilling joy with the sun’s kisses;
Careening steadily through trees on mountains high;
Speeding on lost highways under the moon’s laughing grin;
Growing the magic of love with mutual friends…
So many seeds we planted in our late-night meeting,
Wishes dangling like fire-lit lamps on our path;
When you are ready to dine on peaches and pears,
When you choose to wake or fall into a dream:
I will be there to taste your lips again,
To breathe fire into your heart,
To wander far into our world,
To be the never-ending beauty that is ours.
Midnight In Love
I’m not actually any different from anyone who’s ever loved anyone so deeply.
I’m not actually any different from anyone who’s ever loved anyone so deeply.
I think of you probably as much;
I’m just as lost, as confused by your leaving
As anyone in all the ages of lovers being left.
We have been searching for this answer through all of time:
Why did he die?
Why did he leave?
Why did she not want me?
Why did she reject my love?
Why not accept the reality of us, of what we so clearly felt?
Why choose to forget what beauty we shared…?
Did he not know I would die, too,
Without the sunshine of his presence?
Did he not know that I would be ripped from the very soil, which was him?
Did she not know that I loved her?
Did she not realize how much I would have done for her, how I would have given anything, everything? That I still am, to this day?
Was our reality too much to bear, too challenging for the wish of the world we faced? Did our feelings truly challenge everything?
Did only I consider every moment we had together the most exquisite seconds in life…?
These questions rest in oblivion,
And the only rest I have is the rest I feel when I know I still love you,
When I know I am still in love with you.
It was the only rest I ever felt, in that way.
It was the only you I ever knew.
And this memory is not a memory.
We lived those moments in eternity…
And I am waiting for the stars to realign for you-and-me…
Because I am still in love,
And will always be.
Lionheart
You might not want to look at me
In the way that stole my heart,
But he does.
And he intends to steal my heart back,
To place it back in my chest
So I can live and love again.
Salva-Corpus-Amanti “Save the Lover’s Body”
This is how I picture the world will end. Earth, Air, Water, Fire.
So beautiful.
Secrets
We all have secrets we don’t tell each other:
Mine usually start with “I love you”
And spill like starlight from my eyes;
Yours usually start with “I want you”
And spill like the tides from your skin.
You and Me
I would live to delight you,
To turn your every day to magic
As mine are turned by you
As mine are turned by me.
I would live to entice you,
To turn your every sensation into bliss
As mine are turned by you
As mine are turned by me.
I would live to be your love,
To turn your heart to molten gold
As mine is turned by you
As mine is turned by me.
I would live to be your girl,
To adorn your very side with glory
As mine is adorned by you
As I am adorned by me.
I would live to be your peace
To be the respite you choose
As I choose you
As I choose me.
I would live for nothing but love
And you would be the love I live
As you are you
As I am me.
I would live to be forever yours
To be your eternal everything
As I, already, in my heart, belong with you
As you, already, in my heart, belong with me.
