Twin Hungers
- Twin Hungers -
I can feel such power, within your wanton eyes,
Hungry with the maddest of consuming desires…
Boring into my flesh like the very heat of the sun!
You want me; you want to caress my soft thighs.
And I want to burn in the blazing of love’s fires…
To feel your touch, like silk on godly looms spun.
But I say nothing, until you ask me for my name,
And I surprise myself, because I stop, to tell it…
I feel my breath quicken, because you are lovely.
Lovely man, I act the harlot for you in no shame,
But because I am easily smitten and so I can flit,
Like a butterfly to your side, drawn by destiny!
I am a girl who is like a child as I see you smile!
Giggling and blushing, whilst playing almost shy.
But my eyes glanced square between your legs!
I could tell you were so hard for me, for a while.
That made me blush redder; I cannot this, deny!
Will I enchant you, until your heart thus breaks?
Shattering from the hunger you feel for my flesh!
You long to lick my face, my bosom, and lower.
I am a woman, you are a man; it is only natural…
For lust to bloom between lonely souls so fresh!
You look me over, as if I were a pretty flower…
And you desire to pluck me, thoughts so sexual.
You do not know, that just between my thighs…
I am hard and wet for you, throbbing most hotly.
For I am two genders not one, and both hunger!
Yet I am a woman, always, and I soon realize…
That you might not understand: the nature of me.
And so, we part after talking a bit; you wonder,
Why a woman attracted to you, would walk on.
Because you want only one part of what I am…
And I want you to crave all of me, not just half!
So I must break your heart after all, not for fun,
But out of understanding for you oh lovely man!
And so, I walk away; I neither smile, nor laugh.
I take one last glace behind me, and I do espy:
You are staring at me still, at my shapely rear…
And, I know that you still want me; I want you.
I cannot tell you that, so I look on up at the sky.
For we cannot be together, my handsome dear,
Though, you called me beautiful, and it is true…
I am more, than what your simple heart dreams.
More than you could handle, if only for a night!
So, dream of another now, as I go on my way,
And look on me no more; your soul screams…
But your hunger will subside, with other delight.
My hunger too, shall seek of love another day!
I can feel such power, within your wanton eyes,
Hungry with the maddest of consuming desires…
Boring into my flesh like the very heat of the sun!
You want me; you want to caress my soft thighs.
And I want to burn in the blazing of love’s fires…
To feel your touch, like silk on godly looms spun.
But I say nothing, until you ask me for my name,
And I surprise myself, because I stop, to tell it…

But because I am easily smitten and so I can flit,

"But I say nothing, until you ask me for my name." It's all completely wonderful but this!! This line stuck out to me the most, so submissively commanding.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Jadeth! I must explain something about that line, and how it does indeed relate to the rest of the poem as a whole. There is a reason why I had to add it in:
You see, this poem was written based on a recent event in my life where I was *very* smitten with this one man but had my doubts about his capacity to understand my nature and love me fully. That line "But I say nothing, until you ask me for my name." was necessary... since that was *exactly* how that part of our encounter went down. When that man approached me I was very, strongly taken with him... but I could not bring myself to tell him my true thoughts so instead I played shy and quiet until he had asked me for my name. Then the rest of the poem's events transpired. One quirk about my personality is that I have both a shy, submissive side and yet also an extroverted, commanding side as well. So the fact that this line reflects that is entirely intentional. I hope that explains the reason for its' inclusion better. Were it not for that aspect of my personality, it would be a bit of a puzzlement I am certain! ;)

Wow, that is so intriguing! I too have a meek submissive side and a commanding outspoken side. Are you a Gemini perhaps? I am. :)

Actually, I am an Aries born on the cusp of Pices... but Grace (Idryad) also mentioned in a poem she wrote dedicated to me that she sensed a definite Gemini tendency within me. The line she wrote went like this:
"You are the one and many
A single angel and legion
A best friend and a stranger
You are Gemini and Solitude"
So you are not the first person to notice this about me. Aries are said to be very commanding, with fire being their symbol... whilst Pices are said to be more passive, with their symbol being water. Being born on the cusp is like being two signs in one... with the result being strong Gemini-like tendencies which arise from the person having the attributes of both their birth sign and the sign that they are born on the cusp of. Pretty interesting stuff, eh? ;)
