But not to my sheets

Whole again - Trilogy of Senryu
You swallowed me whole
Chewed me to bits and pieces
Spewed out particles
Crushed like candy sticks
Greedily devoured and scrunched
Splinters pierced my heart
You will not affect
My existence anymore
I’ll be whole again
Chewed me to bits and pieces
Spewed out particles
Crushed like candy sticks
Greedily devoured and scrunched
Splinters pierced my heart
You will not affect
My existence anymore
I’ll be whole again

The Gardener - Quadrology of Senryu
You’re a gardener
Planted love into my heart
Failed to water it
You’re a skilled teacher
Taught my soul to trust and dare
Failed to be honest
You are a healer
Vowed to cure my hurting heart
Failed to make it whole
You’re a sham package
Unwrapped you lost your glamour
Failed to deliver
Planted love into my heart
Failed to water it
You’re a skilled teacher
Taught my soul to trust and dare
Failed to be honest
You are a healer
Vowed to cure my hurting heart
Failed to make it whole
You’re a sham package
Unwrapped you lost your glamour
Failed to deliver

Unbalanced
He was worth of what he gave
but not of what he took.
To draw the balance
means to have to face myself
among the assets.

Shivering with cold

A gaping abyss
That grand canyon between us
Free fall preprogrammed

So sorry - Senryu
I am so sorry
Have so much to do right now
Will read and write soon!
It's boring without comments, so I allowed them :-).

You - Quadrology of Senryu
Tender lips so warm
Brush agonizingly slow
Up and down my spine
Subtle fingertips
Tease tantalizingly soft
The tip of my pearl
Tongue’s glistening lanes
feeding their moist shallowness
to my stream of lust.
How could I resist
Your disarming loveliness
Without being charmed
Brush agonizingly slow
Up and down my spine
Subtle fingertips
Tease tantalizingly soft
The tip of my pearl
Tongue’s glistening lanes
feeding their moist shallowness
to my stream of lust.
How could I resist
Your disarming loveliness
Without being charmed

Your smile - a tightrope
On which my feelings balance
Without safety nets

Wild - Senryu
Forgive my wild lips
Which avidly devour yours
They’re out of control
Which avidly devour yours
They’re out of control
