Silence
Why is silence considered
Deafening?
Sure I’ve experienced
Awkward silence,
But only after something’s been said
That has to be answered...
Or simply can’t be ignored
Like the point of no return.
i.e.
The ending of a relationship,
“I cheated”
Life event,
“I’m pregnant”
Or the dreaded,
“We need to talk”
But besides that
I enjoy silence!
Unless you have something interesting,
Or important to say
Is it necessary that you disturb

Why write for the masses?
Cause in reality
How special can it be
If it’s written to speak to a crowd?
It’s not necessary
If it’s specially crafted
Everyone feels it when it’s
Spoken out loud
Only published because you’re
Not afraid of who knows how you feel
But honestly I’m only ever
Seeking the approval of one
And as long as they get it
As long as it touches them in the heart
As long as they add it to their memory
My job was done!
Anyone else’s gratitude
Is just a...

Poetic foreplay
Naked physically...
Bare with our thoughts
Written down
As we face each other
Reading
What the other wrote
Emotions
Splayed on the page,
Hearts
Riding the wave
Close as we can be without touching
We indulge Poexually
Without fucking
Mentally making Love
Before the action
Our magnetism
An Unstoppable
Force of attraction
Intertwined
Our bodies face to face
Soul vibrations, penetrations
Moving with...

Turned on
Sight unseen
But you’re my dream
Simply from the words
on your page
I crave your presence
Even absent
From your essence
Your intelligence,
Quintessential excellence
You’re the Goddess of words
I admit I’m a Poetaphile
When it comes to you
The things I’d do
You have such a beautiful mind
Even if I was blind
I’d be able to clearly see your beauty
Erotically aroused
Everytime you spill
Imagining you caressing
My rock hard quill
Dipping it...

Undiagnosed
I wish I was an alcoholic.
Because at least I’d know
what my problem is.
I could put a finger on it.
But what I have has eluded me,
all my life,
Quite possibly by my own
masking of the truth,
I’ve pretended for so long to be ok
To find distractions,
just to get me through the day
To not let my in-normalcy
keep me from appearing normal
Even though I’m trapped inside
Lost in the confusion of my mind!
I’ve been telling myself nothing’s
wrong with me for so long
I’d started to believe it!
Nothing...

Forever
I’m sorry I kept you waiting
I realize,
You have millions of poetic suitors
But I know...
That you know,
That I’m one of kind
We were made for each other
Poexually
I see you with my minds eye
And I feel your every lyric
with each sensual thrust into your orgasmic....

Poetic inspiration
I crave your passion
Your precious presence
Your adoring words
Among other things!

I Feel...
I feel like I wanna take you
From your man
He doesn’t have a say
I know this is unexpected
But you know you love
My aggressive way
I wanna show up on your date
You know
The one he’s been planning for weeks
Your first valentines together
I can no longer be discreet
We’ve been flirting for a while
Poexually building our curiosity
But this lust I have inside
Wants me to make you my reality
The fact that you now have a man
It’s ok when I’m not around
But he needs to know the truth ...
