HER DEEPEST KISSES, AND OTHER SHORT POEMS, APRIL 3, 2023

By Donovan Baldwin


her deepest kisses

leave tastes of sin on my lips...

and desires for more


-----


fearful of desires

but longing for their hot flames...

clutched her poet's hand


-----


stirring her embers

she explodes in ecstasy...

thus he makes her whole


-----


taught her not to fear

the heat of her own fires...

his heart in her flames


-----


her blush fast rising

ahead of my passing lips...

a breeze of kisses


-----


she weeps as she reads

his old tattered manuscript...

book of ancient scars


-----


seeking not to hide

out of love before his eyes...

exposes her secrets


-----


two soft voices blend

innocents in paradise...

flowers all they wear


-----


poet who loves her

puts more than words in her mouth...

stretching to a smile


-----


you can't see yourself

genuine wonder you are...

so i will show you


-----


sitting and waiting

for whatever time may bring...

i'm ready for it


-----


shadwos on the page

letters scattered off and hid...

poems meant for her


-----


long i've shadowed you

secrets hidden among poems...

i hoped would trap you


-----


now time draws away

only echoes surrond me...

and useless poems


------


yet i follow you

along the path you've chosen...

love's hope never dies


-----


having made love

i set down pen and lift glass...

relive what i wrote


-----
