POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Delicious
Surviving the red-lit lethargic traffic
You still came
and weren't intense nasty;
so happy to see each other
despite the rain...
Stealing kisses while
warming up at the wine bar,
listening to your stories
my stories
giggling so...
Wet with the droplets
that seem so incessant in falling.
Seated for food
Your warm hands with mine,
held, heart-skipping stares
drinking each other in.
You sprinkle the finest of
sincere words that I blush receiving...
I love how you are captivated
Letting me uncoil, delighted
receiving...

My fingers
are held captive
by custodian lips
keeping
my heated
thoughts
from dancing
out my
mouth...

Shadow Boxing
Held up against the ropes
Flexing with their give
Keep throwing your verbal punches
Tiring, your heart will be cooperative.
I’m not going to move
bucket spitting, get it out
Sweating as you exert yourself
Calmly matching you bout for bout.
Keep on shadow boxing
I won’t come undone
Keep on shadow boxing
Smiling softly, you'll be won.
You’ll not feel my burn
Nor the afterglow sting
Please lay your demons to rest
After this hit, take a jab not a swing.

Fingertips
Wake up...
Tracing my fingertips
over your warm shoulders,
rolling them down your spine
awakening your skin
Resting on the small of your back...
Moving them deliciously
from your lips
moist with your tongue,
circling your chest with soft nails
dancing over your stomach,
Past...
Stern sighs...
Resting gently, teasingly
on the inside of your thigh...
drumming my salacious desire
to your quickening heartbeat.

Pieces of you
Not unlike Icarus,
We still want to fly
closer to the sun...
Transfixed as to why it burns,
Burning each other differently.
You asked me
"what possibly could I offer?"
I've got my answer now...
You.
Everything that is left over.
When everything else is spent.
When all you have left is a tired
goofy smile and just your
presence...
That’s what I’ll take.
I wish I could better describe
what you stir, but if you’ll
afford me this,
let me in...
Let me dine on

I'm not broken
Blue eyes looking through me,
I can feel your curiousity's heat;
you want to touch the darkness
to have it crumble at my feet.
With every breath that I exhale,
you gently coax me out;
trying to hypnotise my tongue
to let my secret shout.
But it's a glass house
and I don't want you to see
that there have been savages here
Please don't take your eyes off me...
I'm not broken...
(just maybe a little bruised)
shhh...
I love the way you look at me,
though there's damage I conceal;
promise me you won't wavier...

Mine
Here, you're here
I can touch you and
not have to dream...
I've conjured you up
and now you're here
and it's everything I wanted
and it's everything and more,
so much,
your characteristics are
different, not mirroring
mine.
But you're here
and maybe if
I'm lucky...
Mine.

Revenge
You skin is rancid with a smell that’s not mine,
You've disguised it with soap and an “I’ll be late” line.
Don’t make the mistake to think you've fooled me,
I’m definitely not blind to the pig I now see.
You've no idea the illicit pain I want to cause,
I’d start by knocking you out with poisonous gauze.
When you awake, by the moonlight you’ll be,
My vicious tools glimmering with my smirk of glee.
I want to make your body feel the hurt that I do,
Cutting slices to remove the images of me screwing you.
Every piece of your being that’s strayed so...

Runaway Train
The doors are closing,
Hold on tight
This train is leaving,
no more platforms in sight.
Keep on moving,
Cannot control the speed
You told me to let go
To give into this need...
It is what it is...
But it feels like a...
Runaway train
Burning up the track
Runaway train
Cannot stop, no going back
Moving under the starry light,
just you and me tonight
just you and me tonight...
It’s a crazy magnetism
That’s crackling between
Behind my chest it’s electric
Not felt before or seen...
It is...
