Your mouth is that magical rose Whose petals bewitch me Fall away just as I would touch them As if dissolving: snowflakes who melt before they would cascade into one's hands
Your softness grows ever coarser Your smile: a chaos No longer a gesture of endearment but a foretaste of danger Your delightful hands pass over my skin. coldly, and make only mischief
How I would to cut off the long hand of my poetry How I yearn to throw off the yoke of my devotion to the cult of your smilehair ...
Emboldened by your giddy refusal, I cut adrift thoughts of your naked feet climbing up my back and slump into my corner ashamed for shit is fucked upbullshitis. My desire, my need to possess and therefore oppress is the lone agent of my undoing. You cannot be held at fault, for we all know you are too much.
If you never understand a thing I say, know this at least, if only this, Thee is a barnyard locked away behind the snow, and there you can come and I will always hold you as tight as the sun holds the midday sky and We will dancily sway in incandescent light until you innocently fall asleep in my aching arms.
'"Please let us live together in a state of grace."'
Your words have an "OLD WORLD" texture to them ... laced with a CONTEMPORARY mentality! Kinda like Shakespeare mixxxed with a lil' Saul Williams. ---- *nice*
Good to see you're still posting ...
A guitar string vibrating, a measure of my soul, a breech in the silence -- I've always felt like words come through me & I write them down... they have no master --- gsquared ♥
Clever display of alliteration and language. Also, grand way to end the poem too...

You are one of the reasons why I still come back to this board... Peace~

props for an altruistic expression of devotion cause for real it seem as tho this was not a mutual thing but one hoped for? and even love has to find new meaning here hmmm...
