POEM: WRITING WITH MY SOUL'S DARK INK
Writing with my soul's dark ink
Words quicker than I think,
Molten flowing thoughts reveal,
A way for poet's heart to heal...
Not sugar sweet nor honey gold
But mere honest words are told,
The secrets buried deep inside,
That love demands I shall not hide.
Stolen glances, pounding heart
The distance that keeps us apart,
The need to see, and touch, and kiss
The needs and wants that we two miss.
Fingers that reach but cannot find
The body hid somewhere behind
Land and oh, the endless sea
Which ever flows twixt her and me.
The laughter that should loud resound,
The oaths by which we should be bound,
The whispers passed by candlelight
Lovers entwined by dark of night.
No ink, no words, can touch the skin.
This separation is a sin.
But, perhaps, these words find grace,
Somehow take my missing place.
Your whispered name upon my lips,
Your phantom at my fingertips.
These poor words all I can give,
And love as long as I shall live.
Ink will fade and paper crumble
But, these words, sincere though humble,
Pressed to your breast, to beating heart,
May cross the distance we're apart.

POET'S WORDS LIKE MOLTEN EMBERS - POEM
By Donovan Baldwin
Poet's words like molten embers
Erotic stories he remembers
She inhales his searing thought
Igniting flames she has fought..
In secret to contain,
But no longer can restrain.
Her back arched, bows to the Muse
Battle fought, now she must lose...
Love's arrows pierce her eager skin
Willing target lets them in...
Her body full of passion's fires,
Her mind toward ecstasy aspires.
Her lips burned by the poet's flame,
Speaks his words, cries out his name.
She is consumed, but not forlorn
For like a Phoenix fast reborn.
From the eager flames that bite
She rises glowing into the night.
Now he's her victim on her bed,
As she circles overhead.
In her mind the words remain,
Echoing again again...
She draws her poet to her breast,
Until the next fires they shall rest.

HER NEW BEAUTY - A POEM
His touch, his sculptor's hands, revealing lines she'd missed,
Melody upon sweet skin, where discord used to twist.
His eyes, two mirrored pools, displaying newfound grace,
A new universe of stars, reflecting on her face.
Years, she thought herself in flawed and fractured form,
Drab canvas bedaubed with doubt, untouched by sun's bright storm.
He came to her with whispered praise and awe within his gaze,
Transformed mundane self image, and lit her hidden flames.
He heard her hidden symphony in her whispered sighs,
The strength behind her fears, the fire in her eyes.
Each delicious stolen kiss filled him with delight,
Revealed her many wonders, hidden out of sight.
She at last emerged from self-inflicted shade,
Embraced herself, the woman he saw, unafraid.
His love, through an alchemy, it seems,
Turned uncertain woman into a moonlit dream.
Each move that she makes now reveals her sculptor's art,
Beauty he showed her, poetry, beating in her heart.
Hands touch how his touched, and she thrills inside,
Masterpiece he brought to life, bathed in love and pride.
No tool or iron or wood changed her mortal shell,
By molded by acceptance, and words her love would tell.
Even in his mirrored gaze, she finally saw,
The awesome beauty he adored, her... without a flaw.
So let the sunbeams dance upon her form,
This woman, loved and seen, no longer lost in storm.
For learning from his love, she's found the way to be,
Her own heart's symphony, wild and beautiful, and free.
