POETRY - NEATH HER HEATED SKIN
BY DONOVAN BALDWIN
neath her heated skin
 |
| DONOVAN BALDWIN |
glowing needs burst into flames
at his hands' passing
-----
that first sudden gasp
involuntary response
before ecstasy
-----
not the man i was
yet i'm still the boy inside
who was taught to love
-----
she's in the shadows
figure barely viewable
reason that i write
-----
life's been a battle
victories followed by loss
yet again i rise
-----
What vintage this vision,
Apparition from another time,
In nicely naughty lingerie?
-----
Upon time's staircase,
A vision descending,
Past made present
Real or fantasy?
Une courtisane
En déshabillé
Seductive,
Sensuous
Forever.
-----
princess kiss this frog
close your eyes and just pretend
he's young and handsome
-----
dreamt you held my hand
our palms touched fingers entwined
love within my grasp
-----
her sweet voice a whisper
as in solitude we meet
my muse comes to me
-----
my words are sweetmeats
nuances that she can taste
mouth watering sins
-----
never enough words
my touches would tell you more
how i look at you
-----
inner flames flicker
anticipation's embers
desires set afire
-----
appears a moment
not certain if i'm watching
but i am and smile
-----
hair brushes my skin
a most delightful caress
intimate places
-----
if i could hold you
bring the rest you desire
the peace you deserve
-----
sadness upon me
for a place i cannot go
love i cannot hold
-----
why bother with dreams
they'll only make you long for
things that are not real
-----
was that you my love
whose sighs gasps and moans echoed
states of arousal
-----
i waited for you
scattering poems about
to lead you to me
-----
so long awaited
the infinite ecstasy
only passion rules
in her love's embrace
goaded by his caresses
and her own desires
now beyond the edge
she completely surrenders
to mindless pleasure
-----
she stands transparent
clad in vintage vestiges
accenting her art
-----
clear over the hills
ancient song which summons me
trade my sword for pen
-----
she is of shadows
blushing blossom hides between
shafts of sunlight
-----
bare shoulders are hot
you in my unbuttoned shirt
your waking up face
-----
the things you have done
things you still desire to do
have made me love you
-----
i'm old like ironsides
but better give me some space
i love to pinch butt
-----
she's so tightly wound
a light breeze across her skin
brings desired release
-----
she needs no restraints
he promises to use her
ways she can't resist
-----
spread yourself for me
expose intimate secrets
beg me to use you
-----
touched for a moment
with our words and images
igniting desires
-----
glistening with dew
this her succulent flower
her pastel orchid
-----
down upon her knees
prepared to give him pleasure
she pleases herself
-----
told me of her sins
many pleasant memories
sound so much like mine
-----
stretched taut gasping breaths
awaiting passionate words
scrawled upon her skin
-----
if only she knew
how long my soul searched for her
to know where she was
-----
heart wildly beating
blushing she reveals herself
no secret hidden
-----
she said they were sins
i told her they were virtues
she saw things my way
-----
living life alone
often felt invisible
but knew he saw her
-----
explored together
the freedom of their bodies
depths of their desires
-----
words held to her breast
she recalls how they had felt
as they entered her
-----
a moving shadow
old memories remembered
beauty recalls ruins
-----
posy of poems
gifting valentine's bouquet
where she is the rose
-----
some might call them sins
loving acts her heart demands
he adores her for
-----
loving acts she does
her innocent seductions
a holy woman
-----
in her rituals
reenacts their lovemaking
to the same climax
-----
clutching in her hands
secrets she has promised him
soon to be revealed
-----
more than mere shadow
this portrait of a woman
revealing secrets
-----
i see you've been here
evidence of interest
i wait patiently
-----
she can't stay away
comes to read each word he writes
he can't stay away
-----
yes she has explored
hidden hallways of desire
in her search for self
-----
secret stash of books
and forbidden implements
we love to play with
-----
hand in hand she led
to where desires were hidden
revealed one by one
-----
to show him what he seeks
lifts her shirt
in a titty flirt
just some tempting peeks
-----
a darker rose blooms
cinnamon petals with dew
to lure her lover
-----
memories of youth
aging poet trapped within
with his dying words
-----
oft of you and me
sometimes strangers sometimes friends
i will write of love
-----
bares body and mind
most intimate permission
loving thoughts and touch
-----
so proudly exposed
no longer invisible
bared within his words
-----
