Two


Love
leads
us to truth.

we climb
through the rubble
and debris and lies
of a past less ordinary
to claim our
History.


Love
cuts
through our soul


I hear you
when you can’t speak.
I feel you
when you cry out
in joy
or in pain,
I got you.

Love
bonds
us to love.

let us cry out
together.
let them know
our song.
let them know
that we are more.

my love
is
your love

I got you,
and you have me:
all
of
me.
what else do we need?

together
we are
one.


epilogue:
my heart
to your heart.
your beautiful soft lips
to mine.
tell me no lies
and I will
sing
to you
of love.

Never Enough

so much of
me,
has been
scattered amongst
you.

loves long
lost in
lust,
tears,
and feigned regret.

so many sweet words
and gentle caress.

intimate moments,
unique
and
so magical.

so many soul shattering orgasms
(well, a few anyways)

so much given
and shared,
now passed
unto memory.

but,
i have so much
MORE
to give,

and no my darling,
i don’t do repeats.

Clairvoyant

tightly rounded shoulders.
arms crossed
defiant.


emotional mma champ
4 decades running.
all
holds
barred.

pursed and
shriveled lips
frame an austerity
so sharp,
your acerbic wit
oft goes
unchallenged
&
unnoticed….


like your heart.


not yet shriveled,
it is tight with a yearning,
for that breath of life
denied
so long ago,
time
and time again.


you see,
when you looked in my eye
and said,
“I’ll be fine”.

I already knew.


and you did too.



history calling; future spawning

a storm beckons
and I look for you.


these hands
seek comfort
in protecting
you.


but,
with head
layed down
on
soft, rounded breast,
i surrender,
drowned
in power primordial.


lend me
your strength ma’-
let us roar once again
and show
them
how deep love can go.


a storm beckons
and we look to one another.

Falling: A Prayer

Ragged Hope twists
away from me, leaving these
aching fingers
to cling to
the emptiness.

Again.

and once more
we sink
down
into that wellspring of
softness.

oh mother
where art thou?

safe from
the harshness
and
swallowed
by guilt,

we

rest
mercilessly.

slumber,
vigilantly.

hide,
safely.

waiting
for
your embrace.

waiting
to
be set free.

waiting
to be set aglow
by the wild fire
of
your
soul.

come
sweet starfire, come
and burn,

burn
a little closer
to me.

keep it movin’

summer winds
stall,
and there
you are:

 
…. frozen
in emotional
doldrums.

 
not even this
sweltered heat
can melt
past fears which
crystallized your soul.

gentle hands may
soon shake you free,
grasping with loving
kindness
and  infinite understanding.

but me,
I’ve gone fishin’

soft kiss in the wind

today
thoughts wander through misty skies
and
my heart
turns back,
feeling for you.

joy
unleashed
unfettered
& unrequited.
and still
I rejoice
in the giving.

such pleasure
grips the soul
eternal.

that love
was not to your
taste;
yet selfishly
I savored
stirring your pot.

reminded
of the love
that I am,
I thank you.
