To all my friends and writers of the den
Please forgive me for being away from the den for so long, Been taking care of other pressing engaements neglecting
my love of writing......and juggling my present surrounding ....whatever that means......I missed all you ladies and gentlemen.......and true poets


 

 

 

 

I search for you

In my every loneliness

And find you

In every tear that falls

From eyes

That crave to vision

Your loveliness

One more time.

 

 

My lips are parched

For yours have not

Blest them

Nor graced them

With the sweetness

Of your kisses.

 

 

Oh

How I want so much

To hold the softness

Of your

Voluptuousness

In my embrace

My heart aches for

The warmth

Of your tender body.

 

 

Look into the depths

Of my eyes

And steal my soul

Once more

Before I die

Don’t my darling

Make me

Once again cry.

 

 

Place your head

On my chest

Listen

To the true sounds

Of loneliness

A heart beating

A soul dimming

Embers

Of passionate love

Smoldering

Into the grayness

Of ashen despair.

 

 

Look around you

No one seems to care

Don’t leave me there

With my back to the wall

Standing at a ledge

With a decision to make

Which I don’t dare.

 

 

Reach out for me

Gasp my hand

Which I already have

Stretched out

Reaching for yours.
