HER DEEPEST KISSES, AND OTHER SHORT POEMS, APRIL 3, 2023
her deepest kisses
leave tastes of sin on my lips...
and desires for more
-----
fearful of desires
but longing for their hot flames...
clutched her poet's hand
-----
stirring her embers
she explodes in ecstasy...
thus he makes her whole
-----
taught her not to fear
the heat of her own fires...
his heart in her flames
-----
her blush fast rising
ahead of my passing lips...
a breeze of kisses
-----
she weeps as she reads
his old tattered manuscript...
book of ancient scars
-----
seeking not to hide
out of love before his eyes...
exposes her secrets
-----
two soft voices blend
innocents in paradise...
flowers all they wear
-----
poet who loves her
puts more than words in her mouth...
stretching to a smile
-----
you can't see yourself
genuine wonder you are...
so i will show you
-----
sitting and waiting
for whatever time may bring...
i'm ready for it
-----
shadwos on the page
letters scattered off and hid...
poems meant for her
-----
long i've shadowed you
secrets hidden among poems...
i hoped would trap you
-----
now time draws away
only echoes surrond me...
and useless poems
------
yet i follow you
along the path you've chosen...
love's hope never dies
-----
having made love
i set down pen and lift glass...
relive what i wrote
