One night...

my body organs
are tied with chords..

tease them..
hum with them..

they want to dance..
mould them in posture..

they want to surrender you..
bite them..strike on them..

they want to melt..
use your hot weapon on them...

Divine Perversion

 
Delectable, lovely souls
Beautifully adorned
Fixated and admired, it sets the heart afire to freely fantasize
Pulsing with every beat
Worshipped and discreet
Spoken with otherworldly tongues, ravished and romanticized
 
Soft and velvet like
Pressed against the core
Facing the heavens with everlasting impressions when taking flight
Sweet stunning agony
Is healed in the ecstasy  
Imagination and adoration come together with quite the sprite
 
Exquisite arduous aching
Senses heightening and quaking
Permeates through with every enthusiastic kiss and caress
Served in every curve
Adored like they’re deserved
In the most perfect arc like fine art that one must simply obsess
 
Amidst undulating waves  
Each touch softy pervades
As the undertows offer a palatable gourmet of dainties and delicacies
This tasty little diversion
Is a welcomed divine perversion
Thrust upon with lust shared in a fancy of peccadilloes and elegancies

maelstrom

 
in my maelstrom of pain
I lose the fight, drowning in my hurt
my lust builds and doesn't relent
I ache in agony for something that can not be
you and me
 
breaking inside I cry out for love
tender feelings turn ravenous
my outlook is bleak
I am a romantic
romanticizing your need of me
 
cutting the night with my want
I call to you
you hear me keening on the wind
answering with a growl
you turn and pierce me with a look
I gaze into your eyes
and we both know it's hopeless
 
we are drug below
where a tempest builds
temptation has take control
 
you desire me
I reach you down deep
your passion's under my spell
with a power play of seduction
you pull away then come in close
kissing me gently
then a bit rough
 
I sigh within
exhaling my truth
you take me to you
raptured faith
 
you penetrate my honesty
and give me what I crave

Deeper shades of read

     
each word becomes home      
proven sanctuary      
moored upon warmth that is you      
call out to me— my other half      
I'm listening      
searching      
where meeting between the lines      
is bold discovery      
that heartily welcome      
arcs of pure incendiary imagination      
exposing mind, body and soul      
feel deep, in bold triumphant spirit      
revel amongst pleasurable panacea      
riding out as waves, crashing      
marvel each page's turn      
across a captivated yearn      
carving out hope and longing      
coil it,      
oh so slowly around us      
press into places      
brand hearts      
of verse and chapter      
awe at those heady sparks      
as they illuminate all the empty darkness      
lighting up pathways long forgotten      
colors not of this world      
beget our new alien luminescence      
how strangely perfect, this      
our magnificently foreign glow... glows      
painting everything      
     
     
a single shade of rhapsody

Thank you to everyone who showed up and made this comp so incredibly difficult to decide! I knew there was some amazing minds on this site and y’all didn’t disappoint! After much deliberating and recruiting a friend for help, here is how it worked out:

MadameLavender, your poem Words on a Paper was an incredible blend of almost revealing and still holding the mystery! For this reason, I tip my hat to you. Congratulations on a well-deserved trophy win!

Bleuvelvete, your poem Deeper Shades of Read was powerful in its elegance and subtlety. Beautiful piece!  For this reason, I’m awarding you the first runner-up position.

Wallyroo92, your poem Divine Perversion was sensual and playful. It made me smile and sigh repeatedly. For this reason, I’m awarding you the second runner-up position.

Honorable mentions go to:
Lunaschild8, you took desserts to another level! I will never think of caramel the same again…
HarleyQuinn, your Raspberries made my mouth water. Amazing use of just a few lines.
Neves, you said more in 4 short lines than I thought possible…
down2dirt, you took the reader in a direction I never expected. Great use of metaphor!
Crimsin, those last 2 lines were a brilliant punctuation on an incredible poem!
Naajir, if only we could all have a massage like that…

Thank you everyone for showing up and taking part in this competition. You all took me in directions I never would have thought of myself. Thank you for expanding my horizons!
