FALL IN LOVE AGAIN, AND OTHER POEMS, JANUARY 22, 2026
fall in love again?DONOVAN BALDWIN
no, fall in love more deeply
through new dimensions
-----
so lovely in red
creating dreams in my head
in my arms in bed
-----
found new dimensions
of love's sweet conventions
sexy intentions
------
first i saw you smile
the curving of warm red lips
sparkle in your eyes
-----
touch yourself for me
bring the pleasure i cannot
pretend i'm with you
-----
in my love's garden
she herself is the blossom
passionate flower
-----
your dewy blossom
pastel petals quivering
beneath my warm breath
-----
yesterdays displayed
piercing headlights clearly seen
illuminates the past
-----
he becomes inflamed
by her powerful pillars
thighs of a goddess
-----
yesterdays displayed
piercing headlights clearly seen
illuminate the past
-----
i sit with stillness
soldier daring destruction
poet against time
-----
a naked embrace
lovers wearing moon's silver
two becoming one
-----
so many struggles
battles brought me to this place
wounds that never healed
-----
play me a love song
sing to me neath moon and stars
rapture in the night
-----
avaricious eyes
devour fiction and fact
expanding her mind
-----
show me images
your likes portray your person
in a wordless way
-----
gives herself to him
reveling in her power
over his pleasure
-----
with gliding touches
we enter secret places
play forbidden games
-----
blossom unfurling
proudly exposing petals
love at her center
-----
our standards rising
in intimate rebellion
as love's forces meet
-----
he watches the notes
that ripple through her body
ecstasy's anthem
-----
yes i watch for you
taking note of what you like
so i can write more
-----
Egyptologist of note
Sporting her black opera coat,
Her gold dress caught his eye,
As she passed him by,
Becoming in couture quite haute.
-----
our shared fantasies
are playful explorations
dipped out of darkness
-----
this loving poet
hides from her in silences
and written whispers
-----
many injuries
many nights and days alone
here in this strange land
-----
better than sudden
for how sweet it slowly grew
from love's planted seed
-----
burning maps and guides
blazing our own loving trails
down pathways aflame
-----
not the gold i seek
but the myth which i follow
dreams become legend
-----
how tight upon her
under over in between
then coiled and knotted
-----
like hot candle wax
burning drops of poetry
explode on her skin
-----
cannot be ignored
touching me in all my parts
true love's summer breeze
-----
silently standing
witnesses to history
England's ancient yews
-----
no words did we speak
eyes lips and hands spoke in
an ancient language
-----
invisible lines
soul's death lies outside of them
where enemies roam
-----
weeping they had watched
the poet's execution
gathering his words
-----
talented she is
she can bring him to his knees
with her silent lips
-----
beneath night's blanket
as day slowly awakens
lovers embracing
-----
look beyond the words
back where the true meanings hide
waiting to be found
-----
she's not supposed to
burn with need the way she does
that's how he loves her
-----
i am her true beast
ensnared by her soul's beauty
my talons withdrawn
-----
