Curves on Curves
Silken hair, on my face
Flirty looks, legs touching
Beating heart, gentle kissing
Everything is slower, deeper
Tugging lips, Tongues dancing
Girlish giggles, end with
Her mouth
Gentle fingertips, on my neck
Hair long, easier to pull
Petite frames, full of passion
Her flesh, softer than his
Knowing my pleasure, higher
On the bed, curves on curves
Fit better
Passioned desire, hot bodies
Sinful skin, Heated blood
Her and I, she and me:
Fire we make
Flirty looks, legs touching
Beating heart, gentle kissing
Everything is slower, deeper
Tugging lips, Tongues dancing
Girlish giggles, end with
Her mouth
Gentle fingertips, on my neck
Hair long, easier to pull
Petite frames, full of passion
Her flesh, softer than his
Knowing my pleasure, higher
On the bed, curves on curves
Fit better
Passioned desire, hot bodies
Sinful skin, Heated blood
Her and I, she and me:
Fire we make

Love affair with a heroine
My life’s saviour you are, my heroine.
Rescuing me from the perdition
of despair… Empowering isolation.
Gold, riches, and friends I sell and sacrifice
as for you, I turn away from everything,
because nothing even matters…
At all.
My life’s purpose you are, my heroine.
Leading me to the epicentre of your euphoria,
lifting me afloat on beaten wings.
That journey that takes me far away
from the ghastly world inside me
to your metallic heaven, up above…
As it is, below.
My life’s only you are, my heroine.
The others, they've...

Right There
I’m sending you a gentle kiss. Right there
Just where you like it. Right there
I feel your hot breathe. Right there
I’m tingling inside. Right there
You’re touching me. Right there
I’m all over it. Right there
My eager fingers. They’re right there
It’s getting warm and wet. Right there
Come inside baby. Right there
Can you feel me? Right there
I’m coming for you. Right there
I’m where you want me. Right there
We are. Right there
Just where you like it. Right there
I feel your hot breathe. Right there
I’m tingling inside. Right there
You’re touching me. Right there
I’m all over it. Right there
My eager fingers. They’re right there
It’s getting warm and wet. Right there
Come inside baby. Right there
Can you feel me? Right there

My Mr Right
My Mr Right will be Rich…
With the wealth of his life’s experience
My Mr Right will be Young…
Eternally playful, light-hearted n curious
My Mr Right will be Proud…
To be who he is, and from where he came
My Mr Right will be Well Spoken…
Able to speak the truths of his heart and pain
My Mr Right will be Tall…
Standing up in the face of adversity
My Mr Right will be Intelligent…
Mature socially, worldly and emotionally
My Mr Right will be Masculine…
Knowing that manning up means facing fear
My Mr Right will be...

Pink Nails
Pink nails hide the dirt of insecurity
Blow dryers blow away true vitality
Fake eyelashes flutter false claim
Pencilled brows draw a plastic picture frame
Coloured contact lenses let you connect less
Support tights keep bound self-acceptance
Bleached hair bathes away earthly states
Designer labels label puppets
Breast implants implant poison into loathed bodies
Lipstick stains stain inner voices
Foundation layers bury the shame of skin
Bottled tan helps bottle out of a natural win
A make up mask… in a made up...

Closed Doors
Hey you… in my bed, come and…
Taste my sweetness down below,
but don’t hope to find any within.
Caress and tickle this body,
but know you won’t get under this skin.
Spend hours embroiled in pillow talk,
but don’t think you will know me.
Stare longingly into these brown eyes,
but deep inside you will not see.
Make plans for my birthday,
but if I refuse them, do not be surprised.
Parade me as a prize in the street,
but my heart, open it will not be prised.
Receive my affectionate words,
but don’t try to read what...

So...
Knowing you for 7 years, my friend,
I didn’t notice what happened, or when
It
was that things changed between us.
A new, nagging feeling in my bones that I
Must
Be near you, devour your presence,
breathe your essence, A sense that I had to
Have
You. In my life, in my bed, in my arms.
All those days and nights where we’ve
Been
Together now haunt me, taunt me
Was this, is this… the feeling they call
Love

A Thousand Kisses Deep
A thousand kisses deep
Into her mind reach his words… littering it with temptation, anticipation
A thousand kisses deep
She feels him on her skin… peppering it with his lip stains, moisture, adoration
A thousand kisses deep
Her mouth receives him, with play-fighting tongues, biting lips, gasping breath
A thousand kisses deep
Into her body she invites him, with lingering eyes watching, bodies closing in…
A thousand kisses deep
Is where She wants Him.

Tu me manques
Tu me manques
Like a pea without its pod... Leaving me vulnerable
Tu me manques
Like an unmade bed made with no quilt… Leaving me cold
Tu me manques
Like a cloud unable to form droplets… Leaving me meaningless
Tu me manques
Like a flower without sunlight… Leaving me wilted
Tu me manques
Like baby birds in a nest open-mouthed... Leaving me hungry
Tu me manques
Like a gramophone with no horn... Leaving me silent
Tu me manques
Like a candle without a flame… Leaving me in darkness
Tu me manques
Like a puppet with no strings......

SugarKisses
Sweet tender kisses
Upon your cherry lips
Give me a sugar rush
Your tasty tongue,
As you lick back
Feeds me into a frenzy
Warm caramel caresses
Make me yearn greedily
For your nectar of love
And candy coated skin
Of Luscious loveliness
I devour deliciously
Our syrupy smooches
Melt my chocolate
With their honey heat
As tantalized taste buds
Hungrily relish
Our Sugarkisses
Upon your cherry lips
Give me a sugar rush
Your tasty tongue,
As you lick back
Feeds me into a frenzy
Warm caramel caresses
Make me yearn greedily
For your nectar of love
And candy coated skin
Of Luscious loveliness
I devour deliciously
Our syrupy smooches
Melt my chocolate
With their honey heat
As tantalized taste buds
Hungrily relish
Our Sugarkisses

Us, in Paradise
Us, at the Beach.
From the sun’s hues, two golden bodies, warming
Towering cliff, rocky outposts, surrounding
Angel blue skies, candy floss clouds, hovering
Sea breeze, white ocean waves, lapping
Floodlight of Mother Nature’s colours, contrasting
No souls seen, our samba in the sand, dancing
The euphoria of a new found heaven, inhaling
In this perfect moment, let us be, never-ending
Me, on the Shore.
Oblivious for a while, the sea’s horizon, watching
Then confusedly transfixed, eyes to water, searching
Fate with its own mind, your hidden...

Three Words
I. Changed inside, the day you got
Lost. I now understand what it means to be
On my own. Life has become a grey
Vacuum. Empty, and devoid of all
Emotion. The world has turned
You shaped. My every action, an
Ordeal. As everything reminds me of
Us. Without which, I am nothing.
