STORIES I CAN'T TELL, AND OTHER RANDOM MICROPOETRY BY DONOVAN BALDWIN - OCTOBER 12, 2025

 
DONOVAN BALDWIN - POET
stories i can't tell

times that you and i made love

in secret places


-----


i've so many words

i can use to describe you

how you make me feel


-----


if you only knew

how many times every day

i try to find you


-----


when she's all alone

a time for private pleasures

solo adventures


-----


as i stand exposed

her fingers seek to mold me

as if i were clay


-----


touch me just one time

as if you meant to please me

make me feel wanted


-----


words a silken gown

rustling across her bare skin

causing arousal


-----


hold me just one time

make me feel that i belong

for a while at least


-----


singing our love songs

neath a silent silver moon

revealing secrets


-----


naked in the night

lovers turn their skins silver

moonbathe together


------


weaving with my words

translucent gown for my love

to touch her for me


-----


lonely without you

echoing in heart and mind

my words so empty


-----


licking sinful lips

she's mellow with a slow burn

a honeyed vodka


-----


Alone in the dark on Gibraltar,

As her courage began to falter,

Then a monkey she met,

Became more than a pet,



-----


People think they're doing good

By being nice to me

I know it's just a subterfuge,

So they feel good, you see.


No one's ever wanted me,

Much less to be nearby,

Through all my many failures,

Give comfort as I cry.


I've never known what love is,

That feeling so sublime,

That someone loving me can give,

It's never been my time.


Each day has been a lonely thing,

In night's darkness so alone,

Never finally fell at peace,

Except when life has gone.


-----


she's dressed for the office

but her mind is somewhere else

nakedly exposed


-----


Pumpkins in the fall,

To Isabella do call,

Earth tones abound,

Falling leaves all around,



-----


i cannot help it

you awaken my old sins

and present desires


-----


life has come to this

ancient wreck of words and deeds

on the rocks of time


-----
