Tears, Like Wine
by Kristian L Mahrling-Harding → (All Poetry by Kristian L Mahrling-Harding)

Save

Tears flow Like wine from the cask Hot, sweet emotion That melts the stoney mask His sweet lips, imagined Upon her heated brow Lightly kiss her temples With passion sated, now He sips her tears, like fine champagne Not wanting, yet, to part The ebbing beat between them One soul, one mind, one heart If he could melt into her She knows, there, he'd reside To take him in, to hold him Emotions cannot hide Her body shudders with The imagery, profound Gasps of pleasures, sobs of joy She hears the sweetest sound 'I love you' he professes She calls his name again He coos sweet nothings in her ear Her passion peaks again More tears are yet to follow No real touch from his embrace Only in her fantasy No kiss upon her face Just his tender voice She commits to memory The desire to unfold his heart Explore the mystery She screams his name, she rides the wave Streams of tears, like flowing wine She hears the echoes of his words A heart and soul entwine They tasted love across the miles So close, the brimming cup But tears, like wine, are wasted Lest he would drink them up By auralee � 2001 auralee (All rights reserved)
*i had forgotten this one. but it is as pertinent today as it was 2 years ago. there are those who have been lucky to have found love, across the miles, across the ponds..etc. the internet can be a tremendous vehicle for bringing people together. it seems safe and impersonal, unless you want it so. one can be anything or anyone, if they so choose. the book is, often, read without the cover, to avoid pre-judgements. but i must add a word of caution. there are also those, out there, that would take advantage of a trusting soul. predators are everywhere. use common sense, and be aware. blessings....and aml....k

WOW...what a poetic piece of art Krissy! So true and sad, but as those before me have said, "We must wallow through the GOOD and the BAD!"

Excellent write, Krissy. I remember when I first got a pc and internet...I was so naeve about internet relationships...but remained convinced it is the best way to see inside ones heart and soul. Good to see you here again and I send you the best year wishes.

Krissy, I don't know about predators, but one of the lades I know must have eaten my heart and spit it out in pieces. ((hugs))
