needful desires
my need speaks to you deeply
you feel me, aroused, when you get lost in my thoughts
something hynotic about my cadence
you find yourself dreaming, I'm dreaming too
stoic pride, your hard side greets me
and finds me so gentle you're startled
you come in and I breathe into you soul
a desire to know me lingers
conjuring your essence
feeding our fantasy
something beautiful
a private scene me and you holding tight
my covering, just a blush
your piercing eyes penetrate mine
and I sigh
with a heavy exhale ...

Everything I know about love
my cat is an asshole
most mornings
he wails a death wish
in my sleeping ear
is possessed by Shakespeare
as he rolls onto his back
feet in the air
as if life is an absolute tragedy
makes me carry him
upstairs every night
abandoning me at the top step
then wails that I dare let him go
my cat is an asshole
sits on the edge of the bath
falls in where fur finds bubbles
in fury and chaos
& I towel him down as...

Conflagration
I am only the wood,
and you are everything else.
You are the air that feeds the fire and the wind that stokes it.
You are the combustion, the opening and the process that unites the air and wood.
You are the light and the heat.
You are the Agni, the disintegrator, transforming just wood into the divine.
We are a conflagration...How warm can we be?
and you are everything else.
You are the air that feeds the fire and the wind that stokes it.
You are the combustion, the opening and the process that unites the air and wood.
You are the light and the heat.
You are the Agni, the disintegrator, transforming just wood into the divine.
We are a conflagration...How warm can we be?

Love Rots
Love, my friends, is overrated.
Be compassionate, have empathy instead.
And not always regard yourself
as Tristan or Isolde,
the Lochinvar who came
to overturn the bridal feast.
Kindness,
when done with earnestness
and not as trickery,
is what disperses clouds
to give the withered crops fresh light.
Where love can be selfish, needful,
a passion rushing forth
as much to solder cracks
in one's own soul.
Love pressed the pillow down
on Desdemona's face,
or so Othello might have claimed.

Eyes Cloudy
Eyes once bright with sunlight.
Now clouded with thunderstorms.
Stormy arguments on our horizon,
I don’t understand what happened to us.
Eyes once serenely an oasis.
Now a tempest booms in our hearts.
Hues of rage and sorrow paint our horizon,
I’m confounded whether we’ll be the same.

Exquisite
Our personal activities have been in full effect all day
Now evening is upon us as we continue to play,
“From our romantic shower until it’s time to get dressed
Complimenting each other, because we want to be at our best,
“The ultimate goal is to be the sharpest ones on the scene
Movie star status, that causes anyone to have an erotic pleasant dream,
“Double checking in the mirror to make sure things are right
Before heading out into the darkness of night,
“As the city lights roll off the windshield
It amplifies my...

All We Can Ask For
The house is growing old and looking sad.
Its roof is leaking, many slates have gone.
It's lost the cheerful look that once it had
when it was sound and life inside went on.
Its hearth is cold, no fire is blazing there,
the paper peels, unrolling from the wall,
the windows blind, the battered floorboards bare,
now only echos echo in its hall.
The house remembers, though, a better time,
the better days when it was full of light,
the happy days when it was in its prime,
it pays no heed now to its sorry plight.
It's had a life with love...

The Painting
Magnificent, beautiful, creative
Thought provoking
Everytime I close my eyes I see it
It speaks to me and I can't stop thinking about it
Emotions are invoked
A moment of nostalgia
When the world was at peace
When I was at peace
Its calm, serene and inspirational
I know you've seen it
Close your eyes and imagine
Remember those moments
Moments when life was valued
And we didn't take it for granted
The most amazing painting ever
A living breathing work of art
Now open your eyes
Truly...

"Crazy "
You might say I'm crazy because, all the love you give me, woman completely amaze me!!
And at times it drives me absolutely crazy!
If I were to go a minute an hour or even a day away from you my sweet lady!!
Would totally spell crazy with a capital "C" an all out blaze, like fire 🔥 in the forest an oblivious roaring rage!
Maybe you can say that I'm spoiled, it's only because all the warmth and love you gave!
No not even for a second or moment when you're not near me, would have me stalk raven mad insanely going...

Once We Were
Occasional tears
never do dry
because it mattered
the reason I cry
A bit of me broken
yet living on
despite the pain
from a time now gone
Memories recalled
reminded of your scent
fond recollection
moments we spent
Once lovers, now friends
both of us changed
the future we had
has been rearranged
From love that was
I shall not hide
for you always
a place aside
never do dry
because it mattered
the reason I cry
A bit of me broken
yet living on
despite the pain
from a time now gone

both of us changed
the future we had
