On seeing you…
May I trace your lips
First gently
softly
with light fingertips
Then with a soft passionate
kiss?
May I rest my face in the crook of your neck
Softly whispering expressions of desire
With lips gently brushing your ear?
May I trace the outlines of your face
Running fingers through your hair
Round your neck to draw you close?
May I gaze into the depths of your eternal eyes?
Might I press my cheek against your strong chest
With a restful sigh
Of peaceful pleasure?
My fingers long to trace your biceps
Finding...

I love how
So handsomely
Your eyes record the years of your smiles
I love how your promises are true
Just as I’ll always love you
I love the way your humor
Lands laughing on my face
I love how the thought of you
Quickens my heart’s pace
It’s simple really
I’m in love with you
Your eyes record the years of your smiles
I love how your promises are true
Just as I’ll always love you
I love the way your humor
Lands laughing on my face
I love how the thought of you
Quickens my heart’s pace
It’s simple really
I’m in love with you

Red & Blue
Have you the courage
Does desire grasp your heart
To taste my flame
And embrace my fire?
Could you hold the heat of my passion
Close?
Or would you shy away,
Pour cold water,
Turn my fires into smoke & bitter ash…
As he did last night?
Could you love me when
I conjure flames
Just as much as in the cool of midnight
Calm & silent?
I love all of you
I embrace you
in the red & in the blue
Does desire grasp your heart
To taste my flame
And embrace my fire?
Could you hold the heat of my passion
Close?
Or would you shy away,
Pour cold water,
Turn my fires into smoke & bitter ash…
As he did last night?
Could you love me when
I conjure flames
Just as much as in the cool of midnight
Calm & silent?
I love all of you
I embrace you
in the red & in the blue

For you & only you
I wait
Remain
Unsated
As desire burns
Still I will wait
For you
For Only you
Can satiate
The specificity
Of my deepest need

Personal
Anything…
Can’t you give me something…
Something personal
Something you
Something telling me Something…
Because recently I was offered
Something personal
Something teasing
Something exciting
And it felt all wrong…
Empty…
Because it wasn’t you!
Only you
Know my person enough
To be really Personal
Please, please, please
Show me something personal
I miss YOU
Can’t you give me something…

…rest…
The empath needs to feel
She needs to feel it all
Then later heal
In the arms that let her rest
Let her feel the darkness
And the sun’s warm smile
Let her eat the fears
And savor every joy
Let her bathe is salty tears of sadness
Fall into the laughter to
If after all the feelings
She might fall at last with you
If you would be the downy nest
Where she could finally find sweet rest
She needs to feel it all
Then later heal
In the arms that let her rest
Let her feel the darkness
And the sun’s warm smile
Let her eat the fears
And savor every joy
Let her bathe is salty tears of sadness
Fall into the laughter to
If after all the feelings
She might fall at last with you
If you would be the downy nest
Where she could finally find sweet rest

Cry in the Dark
Do you ever wonder why
Repeatedly that final night
I whimpered out your name
into the darkened space
twixt you & I
Grasping for your presence?
I needed you to fill me
feared, then, that you were leaving
for the final time…
Leaving me empty
Reaching in the darkness for your touch
Even now, I cry out your name
And dream you’re still here
Filling me again
Repeatedly that final night
I whimpered out your name
into the darkened space
twixt you & I
Grasping for your presence?
I needed you to fill me
feared, then, that you were leaving
for the final time…
Leaving me empty
Reaching in the darkness for your touch
Even now, I cry out your name
And dream you’re still here
Filling me again

If, My Love,
My long-desired Love,
if we again, one day, might meet
In some solitary place
Let there be no inhibitions
Hold me in your strong embrace.
Then all secret pent-up visions,
Every longing aching dream…
I desire all your passions
As a rushing roiling stream
In its pure natural turmoil
Let it all wash over me
Once the flood has receded,
Simply may I with you be?
to see & know & touch your face
Gently, oh so gently,
In the calm, on the lake
Let us simply be, My Love,
Together
Love
If…
if we again, one day, might meet
In some solitary place
Let there be no inhibitions
Hold me in your strong embrace.
Then all secret pent-up visions,
Every longing aching dream…
I desire all your passions
As a rushing roiling stream
In its pure natural turmoil
Let it all wash over me
Once the flood has receded,
Simply may I with you be?
to see & know & touch your face
Gently, oh so gently,
In the calm, on the lake
Let us simply be, My Love,
Together
Love
If…

Inside your heart
Lay the remnants of my home
You are my happy place
As I wish you
Would rest inside my heart
Would live inside my pleasure
Would have me be
All yours
Inside your heart
Love
You are my happy place
As I wish you
Would rest inside my heart
Would live inside my pleasure
Would have me be
All yours
Inside your heart
Love

Do you sense?
Have you a clue
How much
How very much
I love you
Crave you
Adore you
Want you
Need you
Desire you
Seek you
Cling to you…
Aching is the constant
In your absence…
Incomplete
Describes existence without you…
Sapiosexual I am
For you…
Your beautiful mind & heart & soul
Ever draw me closer
Yet even if deranged you grow
I will love you still
You are my Missing piece
You are my Someday
You are my forever Love

Travel Companion
City bustle & calm jungle lakes
Ethnic spices and sweet rice cakes
Mystic temple caves, scenic highlands,
Bluff-side hot springs & ape islands
In far-off countries where adventure takes
Still missing the joy your presence creates
This longing heart lies in a dryland…
Someday might I wander while holding your hand?
For you, for only you, I still will wait…
