Faithful

Have you taken the time to ponder?
I am aware that I will wander  

My toes curl, a deep breath, eyes smolder
I am wild and finally older
I desire you, so I light you aflame
I can’t help but untie anything tame

Beat of my heart, scribble and talk
Papers shuffle and people walk
Bite my lip and I turn it down
All formality, wear the crown

Then I saw a shadow move deep inside of the wood
I fought my curiosity for as long as I could

A very cold day, far-off warm sun
Steam-fogged windows, a father and son
Other bodies snuggle and fabrics rub
I sink down alone in a nice warm tub

Heads always turn when I walk through the door
But only a few will ask about more
That maze in you brings out the hunter in me
And when conjuring flame you are all that I see

Without a backward look, time rolls on by
Without any of us wondering why

You glance at my legs, listen to my voice
You are a man and I’m surrounded by boys
Your smile is crooked and you know my head
I know it is my image that stains your bed

Yet I cross my legs because my conscious is loud
Because I have stoked your flame in front of the crowd
You can't even be sure that I feel it too.
If you were only aware of all that I do.

I dance under the moonlight, lit by the stars
I am a blazing Venus in need of a Mars.

Now it's even colder, all covered up in clothes
Although winter is upon us, my lust has not froze
And I envy all these lovers that traipse on by
And boys make me cold, and only you make me fry

But I keep my eyes down, only my own hands on me
And when I stoke my own fire, you are all that I see
I have a bucket of gas inside of me
And once I let go, you don't know who to be

I cannot eat from any beast or any bird
I must surrender to the call I have heard

You are in my dreams, and now hear you come
It is your chain and post that you flee from

You wrap me up in words, you plunge into me
I rid you of the barriers of who you should be
You leap into my bohemia, I fly into you
If only you were aware of all that I could do

But my days are cold, and my winter is spent alone
With only sounds of loved ones on the phone
While I fail to extinguish the fire inside
A pyromaniac  just trying to hide

We burn as we sing, and as we dance
I find myself in love with this trance

But I do not hunt, not even catch and release
Though it’s hard with your scent on the breeze
But I withhold,  it breaks the law of Peace.




now that you have read it, this poem is about desiring a man with a wife. =)
