Love Arrest Me


Love arrests me
binds me
accosts my self
I lose me
in we and us
Imprisoned
by my own
mental holds
Partnered to the point
of possession
I am at my best
when at the mercy
of someone
who owns my heart


Hidden


The box open on the floor
I know what waits
in that dark within
There’s nothing I want to see
I’ve put it away again and again
always secreting it
into the box where it sits
waiting for another chance
Each time I pull it out
dust it off
wear it proudly
until the next time
I find him
and it’s time
to hide me again



Shadows of Desire


He slinks into my mind
placing himself
in my every thought
I don’t need him
No place for
the likes of a boy
just barely of age
I’ve played that game
of emotional roulette
taking a chance
on a youthful body
and a sexual thirst
Giving myself to being
teacher as well as lover
Nothing feels as good
as a slender student body
I can’t deny my needs
but I can’t give
my heart again
to someone who
hasn’t lived enough
to know the value



Lunch In the Park


Sun shining
afternoon heat
water shimmers
sits still in its banks
You sit on the bench
just from work
tie and slacks
looking like
a fashion magazine
We talk
small talk
about our days
your work
funny stories
silly quips
I love to hear you laugh
check the time
an hour passed already
our moment in
obscurity passed
we must now
rejoin the real world



Personal Ad

I look good
on paper
I can write myself
beautiful
exciting
Words come easy
when you're talking
to no one
I paint myself
in shades of
happiness
Giddy I seem
So full of life
Artsy
Just another word
that gives me life
on the page
Paragraphs about
my likes
dislikes
turn offs, ons
Simple “truths”
about myself
My type
aspirations
shape, size, age
it’s all there
A perfect photo
made of words
I look good on paper



A Kiss

Fingers
caress
Eyes
filled with
reflection
Breath
moist, warm
So much
energy
from one
to another
Electric
charge
Blood
rushing
Heart
Racing
A cacophony
Tingle
Shake
Sweat
Soft lips
brush
Contact
 


Then

I still love you then
In my mind
I still hold you then
close to me
against my chest
your breath on my neck
soothing my days
I still feel you then
when I lay down to sleep
nights in bed alone
holding my pillow
I still know you then
Who you were with me
Years passed like moments
as we loved our way
through so many todays
and even more tomorrows
Where are you now?



Lonely

Lonely crawls
all over you
like a million
tiny legs
Reaches
every part
Inside your skin
it creeps
slithers
Makes its place
in your heart
Settles down
Nests
Grows
Fills the space
with bitter
emptiness
