I HAVE LEARNED FROM SAINTS, AND OTHER ORIGINAL POEMS BY DONOVAN BALDWIN, AUGUST 9, 2024
I have learned from saints
And from my own sins
Injuries and aches
A part of life we endure
On the path to
Becoming ourselves
-----
between cloth and skin
she will gladly let him in
her private playroom
-----
amazing inner burst
that which is release to her
flowing from her body
-----
the love i've given
so much i've lavished and lost
never to be returned
-----
did you really love
or simply need me to love
pretend mine was ours
-----
what most will say
to make you believe they love
will be changed later
-----
what i said i'd do
the way i said you would be loved
is what i will do
-----
reached the end of love one day
learned that i still had more to give
even to those who never loved me
-----
mortal man of pain and love
met a goddess of love and pain
and each made the other whole
-----
so often you've appeared
in guises of many women
whom i loved and watched
as you've walked away
leaving me wondering
if and when and how you
would truly manifest
-----
savory as sea water
sensual as seasonal tides
stroking our senses
-----
you're not asking sins
just a partner to explore
pleasure's many paths
-----
inner sun warms her
her juices begin to flow
as his dawn rises
-----
afraid of that first step
she grasps his hand for support
safely uncertain
-----
my hand grasping yours
you dare to submit yourself
to loving desires
-----
touch of lips and tongue
bringing her sweet bloom to life
with its' crystal dew
-----
how your beauty shines
desires polished and refined
by love's many touches
-----
too long others' toy
a moment of salvation
handed her own heaven
-----
a room with a stranger
kinky secret thing she did
remembered forever
-----
that's a lovely smile
although it's not meant for me
i'm glad i saw it
-----
i didn't need a yes
as long as there was maybe
i was willing to stay
