and your gentle caresses,
How you would lightly
Brush your skin to mine,
Your sweet, full lips
And loaded kisses,
Strong Embraces
And powerful squeezes.
I miss your exploration,
Scouting out my body:
Every crest and valley
With your hand and kiss alike.
I miss your thrusts
and how you swelled within me,
Filled me with love,
But left me so empty.
I miss you so much.

Love in the Eyes of MenWe are apart often. Our duties keep us so. I have my tasks, and she her own. I do think of her when we are apart, but not often. When my mind is idle, it will stray to her, among many things. These thoughts make me smile for a moment, but then I continue with these chores. When we are together, however, it is different. She is all I can think about, care for, or want. I find myself staring at her, so small and delicate. The thought of her in pain is too much, and I feel the need to protect her at all costs. She is mine... none can have her... none can indulge. O day dream of our lives together. Marriage, a family, our deaths. It all seems tooLove in the Eyes of Men5 years ago in Philosophical More Like This

There is a fireThere is a fire within my heart,There is a fire4 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
A tiny ember choked for air,
Suffocated by ill use and
weary of the routines of life.
It now begins to flourish with
sight and smell of you. Every
moment that I think of you, the
ember catches spark, a burning
passion of love, unreturned.

What I saw todayShe closed the door behind her and leaned against the wall. As she allowed herself to slide slowly to floor, her eyes closed and a sigh escaped her breath as she reflected on what had occurred. She remained like this for a few moments, with her knees to her chest and eyes closed tightly. As she resolved how she felt, her eyes were allowed to open, revealing someone sitting across from her in the hall. She stared curiously at the person, not only for the reason that the woman whom she never met was in her house, but that there was a burgundy drip from her hair, dried now as though the fateful blow had occurred hours before. Her brown hair wasWhat I saw today4 years ago in Horror More Like This

Smiling down on me,
Do you see him too
Who fills my heart with glee-
Peaking through the window,
Spying through the dark,
As he slumbers still
With dreams about to embark?
Such joys fill my heart
Just to see him smile
And to be at his side,
Even if not for a while.
Is he well, or is he ill?
Tell me the truth, oh Moon!
I must know, for my sake,
For I wish to see him soon.

Virgin WatersVirgin waters pouring from the skyVirgin Waters4 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
From God Himself they are sent
To cleanse my body
and purify my soul.
Dripping on my face, down my back
Sliding to the ground.
Each drop picks up the impurities:
soils and oils and evil.
I stretch my arms wide
and accept the gift from Him.
Love fills my heart with each drop
Soon my own tears pollute the virgin waters
Mixing and mingling.
Then I come inside and go to bed.
Tomorrow I shall be renewed.

Pains of Loveunjustified passion pulls us togetherPains of Love4 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
seep into me, swelling and yearning
Let us learn the true meaning of closeness
and of bonding
I say the words, repeating them in a hush:
Our father who art in heaven;
The nerves churn in my womb, they expect
a visitor
to come soon, being most pleasant, most awaited moment.
What shall come? occur? who knows?
Too shy, or too embarrassed, to ask.
Dream and wonder, I become ill with tension
I can withdraw and say my true sentiments
But how true would that be,
Time can only tell, in that moment.

Time and AgainTime and againTime and Again4 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
I find myself in this position:
Stopped before the fork
Where two roads diverge.
So easy to say the one less traveled
But what if they both seem hidden?
It's never easy to make these choices.
It's never easy to say No to one,
But Yes to another.
Through it all, however,
Through this torturous decision,
I only wish for one thing:
Freedom from emotion.

SatireHave you been rejoicing about the warmer winters that weve been experiencing? Do you like that we dont have to put on as many layers and wear all that winter clothing and the heating bills? Well it is all thanks to the SUVs like the Hummer.Satire4 years ago in Stories & Vignettes More Like This
The Hummer uses less than 13 miles per gallon, but thankfully it can hold 32 gallons, that is as much as 100% more volume than other SUVs fuel tanks. This means that youre helping out the oil companys even by using up as much as 32 gallons of gas in about a business week of commutes. Not only this, but you are allowing the oil companies to search for oil in other parts of th

The WordsI hear the words echo through my mindThe Words3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Restlessly turning and churning during the nite
Pondering what satisfaction was achieved
And where these morals are deemed worthy.
Sinned have I, but you far deeper.
Such a stain on your soul, forever blacked by guilt,
Yet you continue, unscratched, unscathed
While I tumble into darkness without direction
Repeating and reliving those very moments when
You stole away my life... my happiness
With those words, echoing in my mind.

My heart has diedMy heart has died;My heart has died4 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
It's been dying for a while.
The final blow was given today
Ceasing the staggering beats.
Try as you might
To resurrect my joy,
My ever-jovial laughs;
They are gone-
Forever.
For what is there left to smile?
Where is there contentment
In this hallow world?
I once help happiness,
But I let it go,
Tossed it away so carelessly.
And for that
My heart has died.

And the nite young.
The darkness expands
Out from around us,
And all the while
We are alone.

No reason for shame.
Just us and infinity.
So, flirt with me tonite.
You cannot deny
This pull between us.

Frown upon me now.

How I wish to go with you

Berdie's WeddingThe chirping woke me up this morning earlier than usual. Normally we wait til the sun rises to get to work, but this morning the birds were up before the sun. No other sounds could be heard, except for the careless song, as they chatter away outside the window. I groaned and turned over in the bed. The mass next to me didnt move. It laid there, stiff and motionless, with the chest rising and falling in an uneven rhythm as it breathed. The birds did not wake Rubin.Berdie's Wedding3 years ago in Short Stories More Like This

MemoriesMemories come rushing backMemories5 years ago in Open More Like This
As cold as winter rapids
And as harsh.
Tossing you from past to present,
Present to past,
More swiftly than a blink.
Eyes open; eyes close.
They play before you
Projecting from the back of your mind.
How long has it been?
A week? A month?
Three years?
Does the time matter?
All that matters is one should
Never lose these memories,
However undesirable they be.
So thus they may never repeat.
