Poet Introduction
I am relatively new to poetry, my only experience being that on DUP. I enjoy love and erotic poems the most and like rhyming poetry.

Shared pain
Soft cheek upon sculptured chest,
Strong arms hold her close,
Tears patter upon his skin,
Still as statues in mourning,
Till gentle lips meet her brow,
Calloused hand runs through hair,
And gives more comfort than words could,
She meets his lips, gently, with hers,
And for a moment pain is forgotten,
All is bliss amidst the turmoil,
There is love in the eye of the storm,
They break apart reluctantly,
And the pain returns to them both,
But it is diminished by their brief interlude,
Pain shared is pain halved.
Strong arms hold her close,
Tears patter upon his skin,
Still as statues in mourning,
Till gentle lips meet her brow,
Calloused hand runs through hair,
And gives more comfort than words could,
She meets his lips, gently, with hers,
And for a moment pain is forgotten,
All is bliss amidst the turmoil,
There is love in the eye of the storm,
They break apart reluctantly,
And the pain returns to them both,
But it is diminished by their brief interlude,
Pain shared is pain halved.

Hourglass
Time keeps slipping slowly by
Relentlessly for you and I
We are grains of sand
Trapped in glass
Always falling
Tumbling
Gone
But still
We fall as one
And as fleeting
As our lives may be
Our love is forever strong
Together we will break free.
Relentlessly for you and I
We are grains of sand
Trapped in glass
Always falling
Tumbling
Gone
But still
We fall as one
And as fleeting
As our lives may be
Our love is forever strong
Together we will break free.

Escape
These city walls
Constrain my mind,
I want to run
To leave it all behind,
To forever abandon
This dismal place,
And find somewhere
Of open space.
Summer breeze
Caressing my skin,
Becoming one
With nature within,
The sun so warm
Upon my flesh,
As nature and I
Begin to mesh.
Oneness with
The earth and sky,
A desperate need
A drugless high,
Leaves rustle
And whisper my name,
Pulling me in
I feel no shame.
But this surrender
To nature does end,
And so...
Constrain my mind,
I want to run
To leave it all behind,
To forever abandon
This dismal place,
And find somewhere
Of open space.
Summer breeze
Caressing my skin,
Becoming one
With nature within,
The sun so warm
Upon my flesh,
As nature and I
Begin to mesh.
Oneness with
The earth and sky,
A desperate need
A drugless high,
Leaves rustle
And whisper my name,
Pulling me in
I feel no shame.
But this surrender
To nature does end,
And so...

Whisky girl
Her amber form
Upon my lips,
Her honeyed taste
With all my sips,
Smooth of body
So divine,
Deeply intoxicating
But feels so fine,
Powerful, controlling
Beauty and beast,
Cool as ice
A veritable feast,
And as I plunge
Ever deeper,
Your fire hits me
Forever a keeper,
My whisky girl
The wild tempest,
My favourite drink
And lustful conquest.
Upon my lips,
Her honeyed taste
With all my sips,
Smooth of body
So divine,
Deeply intoxicating
But feels so fine,
Powerful, controlling
Beauty and beast,
Cool as ice
A veritable feast,
And as I plunge
Ever deeper,
Your fire hits me
Forever a keeper,
My whisky girl
The wild tempest,
My favourite drink
And lustful conquest.

Dysfunctional adoration
Your body calls to me in beautiful whispers,
A siren’s song, so full of promise and love,
I know you are a fire, I know how you burn,
But still I yearn for you, still I need you,
You are my opioid, my muse and addiction,
Spread before me you are a constellation,
Beautiful and dazzling in your brightness,
Undeniable and powerful even when bare,
I know your lips make mockery of truth,
The sounds still sweet as a lyrebirds call,
But your eyes are the real deciever,
Ever holding the innocence of a child,
Always pregnant with the promise...
A siren’s song, so full of promise and love,
I know you are a fire, I know how you burn,
But still I yearn for you, still I need you,
You are my opioid, my muse and addiction,
Spread before me you are a constellation,
Beautiful and dazzling in your brightness,
Undeniable and powerful even when bare,
I know your lips make mockery of truth,
The sounds still sweet as a lyrebirds call,
But your eyes are the real deciever,
Ever holding the innocence of a child,
Always pregnant with the promise...

My dove
There is sunlight in your smile,
Yet sadness in your eyes,
You loved me for awhile,
Or was it all just lies?
Perhaps you love me still,
Its hard for me to tell,
It’s sapping me of will,
When on your love I dwell.
Forever, our love would last,
Is what we promised each other,
But that was in the past,
Now I fear you love another.
But forever in my heart,
Is where you’ll always stay,
Even when we part,
You are never far away.
So if another you love,
Don’t hide and lie to me,
You...
Yet sadness in your eyes,
You loved me for awhile,
Or was it all just lies?
Perhaps you love me still,
Its hard for me to tell,
It’s sapping me of will,
When on your love I dwell.
Forever, our love would last,
Is what we promised each other,
But that was in the past,
Now I fear you love another.
But forever in my heart,
Is where you’ll always stay,
Even when we part,
You are never far away.
So if another you love,
Don’t hide and lie to me,
You...

FICTIONAL PROSE

Canis Infernum
It is not usual for anybody to have to work the 'graveyard' shift in a cemetery, the very nature of such a place tends to keep most reasonable people at bay when the sun goes down. Yet that was what I was due to embark on this night. It all started about three weeks ago, that's when the first incident happened. It was early on a Monday morning, despite it's large size - near a square mile, the cemetery was a quiet place at the weekends with only a skeleton staffing in the office building in case any visitors required assistance. So when we started some hedge cutting along the far boundary and...

Love me/ Loathe me
Love me
With my marble white skin,
And my friendly smile,
My youthful grey eyes,
And my full firm lips.
Loathe me
With my weak skin,
And my crooked teeth,
My impotent eyes,
And my too feminine lips.
Love me
With my unique hair,
Burning embers amidsts fields of brown,
My open and honest face,
My kindly ways.
Loathe me
With my coarse hair,
So close to ginger despite the brown,
With my weak jaw,
And simpering manner.
Love me
And my lean body,
And strong hands, ...
With my marble white skin,
And my friendly smile,
My youthful grey eyes,
And my full firm lips.
Loathe me
With my weak skin,
And my crooked teeth,
My impotent eyes,
And my too feminine lips.
Love me
With my unique hair,
Burning embers amidsts fields of brown,
My open and honest face,
My kindly ways.
Loathe me
With my coarse hair,
So close to ginger despite the brown,
With my weak jaw,

Longing
I sit here
In impotent lust
To be near
My needs must
Forever I long
My desire,
My hearts song,
A searing fire.
Your body calls
A desperate heed
Through hallowed halls
My wild need
Your sex, tender
And ever sweet
Sensation to render
Me replete
The moment near
That I may hold
My loved one dear
Within my fold
But alas I wait
With swollen sex
My urge to sate
Leaves me a vex.
In impotent lust
To be near
My needs must
Forever I long

OBSERVATIONAL POEM

Of boys and men
All men are boys,
Deep down in their heart,
They crave adventure and fun,
The pursuit of wild art.
All men are boys,
All the way to the core,
We walk around with much gusto,
Even when all is sore.
All men are boys,
Through our whole soul,
We hope no one can see,
Past our encompassing whole.
All men are boys,
We live with great fears,
That the rest of the world,
Might see our torrent of tears.
All men are boys,
This much I know,
We spend our whole life,
Not letting weakness...
Deep down in their heart,
They crave adventure and fun,
The pursuit of wild art.
All men are boys,
All the way to the core,
We walk around with much gusto,
Even when all is sore.
All men are boys,
Through our whole soul,
We hope no one can see,
Past our encompassing whole.
All men are boys,
We live with great fears,
That the rest of the world,
Might see our torrent of tears.
All men are boys,
This much I know,
We spend our whole life,
Not letting weakness...

Cunnilingus play
Delicate, smooth thighs,
Play ivory curtains to centre stage,
Your rapid, shallow breath,
A symphony of expectant pleasure,
As my hungry eyes,
Play eager audience to your glory,
Your voice is a throaty purr,
Strong hands caress your full breasts,
But my hands are just support actors,
In this nights erotic play,
And my tongue limbers itself,
Waiting eagerly to dance centre stage,
Gentle nibbles on inner thigh,
Help to set the scene,
My hands move firmly,
Down your lithe form,
They move playfully...
Play ivory curtains to centre stage,
Your rapid, shallow breath,
A symphony of expectant pleasure,
As my hungry eyes,
Play eager audience to your glory,
Your voice is a throaty purr,
Strong hands caress your full breasts,
But my hands are just support actors,
In this nights erotic play,
And my tongue limbers itself,
Waiting eagerly to dance centre stage,
Gentle nibbles on inner thigh,
Help to set the scene,
My hands move firmly,
Down your lithe form,
They move playfully...
