Obsession

Lust bastes the heart
with risqué aromatics
lining the muscle
with a longing
that lingers
Textured,
decadent, (mocking)

Wicked belonging

Evacuating the mind of all that matters
to fill the void with a flawless fancy
that sparkles the eye
The highs of peerless desire
The rust of disjointed bliss

Singing a duet all alone

Feathering the rind with a tone that flatters
To line the cavity with these synthetic ruminations
A relationship upheld in the mind
raw and salacious
Though you are unaware

One-sided love

I’ve undressed you a thousand times in my mind
Ran my fingers through your flair
I’ve walked the sands of ponder
tread isles hand in hand
but

You’re blurry in my perception

I cannot sensate in the solitary
I need your breath to complete me
To deplete me of this emptiness that is creeping
But you’ll never sit with me

I’m weeping

Thus I will gather stones
and place them
beneath us
until the foundation is built
strengthening the silt
that mires me
in these unchaperoned musings
