I Make Love to Myself (Reposted)
I make love to myself, guaranteed not to disappoint
because I refuse to settle for mediocrity
at this juncture in my life, at this point
any thing else would be an hypocrisy.
I make love to myself, in lieu of a lover in my bower
fantasizing as the clock tics away the hours,
this has become common place
a multitude of pillows beside me, occupy the empty space.
I make love to myself, to appease the need
yet the heart continues yearning for that which it does not receive. ...

Ephemeral Fantasy
Ephemeral fantasies full of hedonistic pleasures,
subliminal messages and sensual overtures,
whispers of sweetness include suggestive innuendos,
that lead to altruistic delights and blissful endeavors.
An excursion in pure stimuli awakens the senses,
inciting ardent responses amidst disappearing pretenses.
Passionate glances and gentile caresses
speak softly of desires in keen eloquence,
murmured fervently in carnal capitulation
bathed in exquisite splendor of ethereal creation.

My body needs you, can you hear it calling (Reposted)
My body needs you, can you hear it calling?
Let us pretend for little while that you and I belong to each other
just lay your head on my pillow, make believe you love me just one time,
while night is still upon us, our bodies will commence a motion so sublime.
Hold your strong body close to mine, whisper things I need to hear,
capture me in your arms and hold me, hold me near.
Tomorrow the separation will inevitably come,
but here and now, let our bodies cease to be two
as they become one. The need overtakes me
in powerful desire,...

Whisperings from the heart
Whisperings from the heart speak softly,
ever so softly of feelings and tender sentiments,
sentiments carried on the wind to the ears of the one and only.
Words that caress as if they were the touch of a lover
bring about delicious vibrations across sensitive skin,
ripples of pleasure awaken from within, so akin to a sinful fever.
An embrace imbued with such a tender love
that gives without expectation and speaks with no hesitation;
a very special kind of love that heals as if a gift from above,
words are inadequate to describe the...

Symphonious Sonnet
Salutations self-cultivated scribes!,
satisfying society’s salacity for syllables,
sensible and suggestive, sensual and scurrilous.
Singlehandedly sending stimulating sentiments,
soundlessly scratching the surface of sensations
with soul scorching salacious scriptures.
Searching and scrutinizing symmetrical
seeds of sensational scraps of script,
shrewdly setup, singularly shaped sentences.
Sometimes shockingly sensitive,
showcasing significantly silky situations
with a soulful sensuous siren song.

The Drug To My Need
You have become a drug to my need,
an exotic delicacy I can often read.
In my world this is an entirely new sensation,
dispelling the darkness like a conflagration.
I jealously guarded my heart from cruelties,
from suitors advances and immoral ambiguities.
But I have fallen under the spell you will not rescind,
your words swirling around me like magical whirlwind.
Words that have become a cocoon that protects,
encasing and enveloping me in their caring affects,
gently, ever so gently my heart they caress, ...

Words Unspoken
My heart brims with words that are unspoken,
with emotions you have unwittingly awoken.
You have crossed a threshold stepping into my dreams,
becoming anything you want and everything for me.
Mere moments in time hold no sway here,
only we matter, there is no trepidation or fear.
Fold me into your warm masculine embrace,
transport me into your ideal imagined place.
We are dreamfasted revealing ourselves without censure,
sharing our past, present and our hopes for the future.
Secure within your arms I will whisper...
with emotions you have unwittingly awoken.

I Dream...
I dream … dreams, some decipherable and full meaning,
others enigmatic, unfathomable and fleeting.
I dream …of you, seen yet unseen, gleanings
of notions and emotions from underlying feelings.
I dream … of cravings, yearnings underestimated,
my will abated, ache and desires abbreviated.
I dream…as our friendship is comfortably acclimated,
we realize our long lived loneliness is becoming accentuated.
I dream…sentimentally of being singularly chosen
by a love time will stand still for as if perpetually frozen.

The night comes...(Re-posted)
I want to be reached deep within,
someone to wear my body like second skin.
Hold me in his arms as if that is where I should always be
as if my absence would be a huge travesty.
Someone who gives butterfly and languid kisses
that cloud the senses and incite lustful insistence.
One who can be a patient lover with a studied hand,
who knows where the true strength lies in a man.
The years of loneliness have drained me to the core,
adrift in my bed writhing and roaming wanting more.
In my dreams I feel my skin being touched...

Letter To A Friend...
Dear friend:
You always wonder how I get into your head,
understand the messages you wrote, as I read.
There is no easy answer to your query
but I will try to explain what it is in theory.
I am like a short wave radio tuning in to the emotions,
an empath, I can FEEL your every word and sensation.
Literally it is like scanning the channels,
I feel peoples’ sentiments, some clear, others feint and shallow,
it can get hard at times to block the chaos out,
yet at other times it is useful...

In your written pain I contemplated…
In your written pain I contemplated…
I contemplated...
the soul searing sadness in your phrase
awashed with it I felt myself drown,
I listened to your sharp laments in a haze,
although there is no utterance of sound.
My spirit in distress recoiled
upon drinking in the syllables,
as if within a wind they roiled
in angry overwhelming decibels.
Such was the pain I perceived,
it shred my soul with its ferocity,
your words full of emotions, bleed,
emanating bitterness in reciprocity.

SkinWalker
I wear this skin and make it mine,
transforming into this creatures’ design.
Raven, wolf or the mighty bear,
of its abilities I become heir.
The choice of animal is limitless,
a need defines what I select.
The change is painful and slow,
inherent power you never outgrow.
Many fear and deem it witchery,
the true nature is ablutionary.
Much misunderstood and maligned,
I maintain a solitary confine.
Supernatural, our power is taboo,
to speak of us will condemn you too.
