POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am on a journey… with my work, my explorations, and a few sad stories. I travel with a suitcase full of outrageous blessings. I am on a quest for truth, beauty and quiet joy. I am an artist, a writer, an explorer. ~unknown~
The Spirit Angel
She awoke. Her heart weeping. He had given her so much pleasure with his words of love and devotion. He had spent hours with her speaking to her with such trusting softness that slowly melted her heart enough to let him slide into it. She was caressed by his warmth and love for her and she needed him now like a drug to keep her going. To keep her at the constant high she felt while he could be with her. To have his words whether written or spoken it did not matter. She had never experienced anything like him before. It was magical, wonderful, incredible the way he made her feel. She could...

Max...imum Pleasure
I listen to you
Your voice so smooth
and luxurious
resounding in my head
You are firm about your feelings
and wants in your life
and that you want me to be part of it
you desire it, almost
demand it...
and I am intrigued
by your attentions
and your intentions
to never let me go
and how you tell me with
your eyes
and gentle smile
how you love
me so...
but, I have never
been here before
these feelings are
so new to me...
and I want to believe
the way you see
the future
for us both

I'll Fly Away....
If I were to just pack my bags
and go
who would know?
for hours
that i was gone
That I decided
the wait...
was more painful
than everything else
I have previously experienced
That the want
was so great
it could no longer be ignored
that my soul,
my heart was literally
screaming for it
Or is that me?
and it had become so deafening
I did not hear it
till now?

The Error of My Ways
I see what I have done now
I gave myself too eagerly
too willingly
I did not hold back my love
for even an instant
I poured myself into
all that you are
as if you were a vessel
for me to fill
with every part of my being
so you would never feel
empty
or alone.
I held on way too tightly
so afraid of releasing
you to all the outside forces
that could do us harm
I wrapped you so tightly in
the blanket of my love
that made you only yearn
for me
I would do...

Betrayal
For so long
I have done everything for you
to make your life
easier
To make a beautiful
place for you to rest.
To bring you comfort
when you needed it most.
To fill your world
and your senses
with beauty and light.
Places for you to retire
to
to sip in all
that I am.
I have filled your
life with so many good
things
a cup overflowing,
with laughter
music,
love,
peace, and joy.
My gifts have been more
than bountiful.
I gave myself to you
so long ago.
A treasure...

Just Me
Here I sit alone, again. And I read a note from my dad. He is worried about me, About where my life is headed. If I am making the right choices for myself. That being so far away from family and friends may not be the best thing for me. Have I weighed all my options. He discusses my life with my siblings and informs me they are worried as well. But, have I heard from any one, no. They converse amongst themselves about me, but never actually talk to me. I have not heard from any friends for weeks, although I have made contact. I don't want to come across as mean or harsh. But seriously, if you...

In the Dark
I sit here in the dark
listening, waiting
for your return
How long has it been?
I don't know
I only hear the
tic toc tic toc
of the clock beside me
making me feel
as if it has been an eternity
And my heart is
thudding against
my breast as my anxiety
rises to almost full throttle
Why is it taking so long
for you to find me here
all alone
in the dark?
Don't you know where
I am?

The Piano
There is so much dischord
here, you can feel it
as her hands glide
along the keys
there are moments
of pure sweetness
as her fingers
pluck and dance
over the black and white
and how poetic
how stark the contrast
that truly has become her
life
the melody so tranquil
at times getting lost
behind the thunderous notes
that echo into the room
her head thrown back
into the very essence
of the sound
as it lingers
so heavily
and then her face softens
she leans forward
as if to...

Leap of Faith
She couldn't wait
any longer
the universe was calling to her
She needed the fresh air,
the wind,
even the rain
if it would cleanse her soul
She needed to feel
the wind rushing around
her
encircling her
whipping her clothing
about her with so much
vigor and grace
To feel the the wind
kiss her face
however sharply
She so desperately
needed
to feel part of something
much larger than her life
Digging her bare feet into
the earth,
raising her arms
to the skies above...

Rapture
Are you watching?
can you feel me approaching?
to do what ever I please?
I want to wrap myself
around you
carrying you to another
sphere of delight
as if you are my dream
but making you come true
making you part of my skin
so you can feel my stories
from within my cocoon
bringing you all the pleasure
that I seek
with every tender touch
and stroke, my hot breath
against you
as I breathe you in
becoming one with
every breath we take
my tongue searching you
in all your hidden places
that I can find so easily...

Day & Night
The sun danced along the horizon
all shimmery and true
whispering its last hoorah
against the sky still blue
It hovered there
almost restlessly on the edge
of the earth
Patiently waiting for the moon
To rise in birth
Of the night that was
still waiting on its
luminescent soul
to transform day to night
was no small feat at all
As the sun so suddenly
melted behind the horizon
in glorious shades of pink, orange and gold
how could the moon compete with that
she would not be so bold
Gently she soared...

tears
the wind and rain
slides down my window pane
concealing all i want to see
the darkness enshrouding me
from all i want to be
i can no longer hide
behind the shimmery mask
that fogs my outer view
to free me from my past
my breath against it all
i write my story upon it
to set me free at last
from all that resides inside
and wash away the tears
i can no longer hide
slides down my window pane
concealing all i want to see
the darkness enshrouding me
from all i want to be
i can no longer hide
behind the shimmery mask
that fogs my outer view
to free me from my past
my breath against it all
i write my story upon it
to set me free at last
from all that resides inside
and wash away the tears
i can no longer hide
