POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am an English major about to graduate, looking to showcase some of my favorite selections from my previous work and write new content to stay sharp.
Pleasure Dance
A gleam in your eyes
You take my hand
My knees tremble
I can barely stand
Up the stairs and
Down the hall
You throw my back
Against the wall
Your lips crush mine
In a passionate kiss
Leading me
To the edge of bliss
You bite my lip
I suppress a moan
At the enticing feel
Of your throbbing bone
Pressed against my skin
As you hold me close
Seducing me with
A sensory overdose
Your heat, your scent
It drives me wild
When you kiss my skin
I am beguiled
Seduced by the love ...
You take my hand
My knees tremble
I can barely stand
Up the stairs and
Down the hall
You throw my back
Against the wall
Your lips crush mine
In a passionate kiss
Leading me
To the edge of bliss
You bite my lip
I suppress a moan
At the enticing feel
Of your throbbing bone
Pressed against my skin
As you hold me close
Seducing me with
A sensory overdose
Your heat, your scent
It drives me wild
When you kiss my skin
I am beguiled
Seduced by the love ...

Oblivion
My brain is in overdrive,
Spinning, whirling, constantly.
I long for oblivion.
Looking at the bottle in my hand,
I know I should put it down,
Put it away,
But oblivion calls my name.
I long for the sweet surrender
To my darker self,
To the person alcohol makes me.
Free from my own mind,
Feel to feel, free from inhibition.
I am free.
The taste turns my stomach,
But I need the freedom it brings.
I drift into oblivion, sip by sip,
Becoming who I long to be.
But this isn't me.
Reckless,...

Unsure
I am unsure.
What are we to each other?
I love you, you love me,
I hurt you, you hurt me.
Endless circles,
Arguments day and night,
Passionate embracing,
Scorn-filled words.
What am I to you?
Friend, lover, fiancée,
Future mother of your children?
We love, we fight
And I am unsure
Of where we will go.
Do we stay together
Or will the pains we carry
Tear us apart?
Uncertainty fills my mind,
I am unsure.
What are we to each other?
I love you, you love me,
I hurt you, you hurt me.
Endless circles,
Arguments day and night,
Passionate embracing,
Scorn-filled words.

Of where we will go.
Do we stay together
Or will the pains we carry
Tear us apart?
Uncertainty fills my mind,
I am unsure.

Good Girl
Inhale,
Exhale, and try not to cry.
Each breath a struggle to survive.
This body a prison
Bound by expectations.
Daddy always said, "Be a good girl."
I tried to live by his rules, but each limitation
Added a steel bar to my cage.
Trapped, constricted,
Bound by my convictions.
Fifteen going on forty-five
With a millennia of wisdom built on pain,
I do not belong and the society that forced
This old age upon me will never accept me.
I am alone.
My heart is a lost balloon,
Floating up to the...

Joining
Rhythms and perfect harmony
Don't compare to what you do to me
The feeling of skin on skin
The pulsing throbbing ache within
Stoking up an internal fire
Fed by my lust and desire
Every gentle loving caress
The moans I can't suppress
Filling me with infinite need
You move, I follow your lead
Our bodies moving as one
My mind coming undone
In the pleasure, the ecstacy,
The joining of you and me
Don't compare to what you do to me
The feeling of skin on skin
The pulsing throbbing ache within
Stoking up an internal fire
Fed by my lust and desire
Every gentle loving caress
The moans I can't suppress
Filling me with infinite need
You move, I follow your lead
Our bodies moving as one
My mind coming undone
In the pleasure, the ecstacy,
The joining of you and me

Collateral Damage
A long day where everything went wrong
With a long list of griefs,
I'm counting the seconds
Until I find relief at his apartment
Snuggling in his arms.
A text breaks the spell.
Irritation.
Forced to interact when I would
Rather romp with him.
I grin and bear it, drink in hand,
The descending buzz mellowing the annoyance
Until your hurtful comment.
Pain.
My heart cracks, exposing my weakness.
I tamp down the tears, pretending to be okay,
Another drink in hand, this one stronger.
Shrugging out of my...
