It isn't as easy as they say
I would be happy if we skipped the foreplay.
I'm afraid of the feedback that we'll follow my performance
But that doesn't matter for this is romance.

I fell in love with you when i was but a boy ,
And you were so coy .
I looked at your beauty for many hours ,
And you made me stronger and less of a coward.

Words , the thing that has been in my life for so long .
They are everywhere especially in songs .
Please be gentle with your comments,
As i have just stopped being dormant

This is my first poem to the public
I hope it is sultry...
The first poem i have ever published
any feedback would be good
thanks

A little light enters.
A little light reaches.
A little light is enough ,
Enough for my soul
Which is soaked in darkness.  

I scour the land ,
In search of this little light .
I find nought.
Point me in the right direction,
So that i may stop this aimless meandering .

I cry to the sky so that God or the gods
May hear my agony
And hopefully wring the darkness in my soul
Oh , how it hurts ,
Where is the light when you need it .

I started to think of something
but then nothing formulated .
I looked into the nothingness and decided to work with it ,
i found that within it there was something to say.

I found truth within it and i almost found myself
But i rejected to know what i was
for i too could be nothing within Nothing.
I was having a little poetry block so i tried doing whatever came to mind .

I kneel before you
And give myself up to you .

I beg you for so much
But you give me nought .

I lie prostrate before you
I grovel at your feet .

Is this what i get
For opening up to you ?

Do i crash and burn
Because i believe in you ?

My reward for loving you
And worshiping you like a goddess ...

You are cold like a night at sea ,
For you a chilly and unpredictable .

My goddess who never answers me .
What shall i do ?

In this religion ,
Of constantly worshiping you ?
I am in a dark place .....

They say life flashes before your eyes
If you are about to die .
but why do i sit here ?
My life flashed before me and i felt the scars again.

The pain of seeing my mother's beautiful
Lifeless face .
She was at peace with the world
as she lay in a coffin .

The tearing of my heart as i kissed my comatose grandmother
for the last time,
before we pulled the plug .

Drugs were my band-aid then .
They comforted me in bliss,
And i forgot my problems
For as long as the high lasted .

Now i can't use those band-aids
For i have been to rehab and now i need answers .
Answers as to why i am a standing and other people die .
this is a cry for help ....save me from myself

Love , how destructive .
Making me vulnerable
                                                         to any emotional attacks.
I opened my gates for one i thought
Might be a friend but alas it was a fiend .

You came in and destroyed me from the inside .
                                 How long will my recovery take , this time ?
Funny how that happened to rhyme .

               The snake in the garden of Eden , is no match for you Love
You do the impossible , you bring together and destroy .
                         You've done it before with the destruction of Troy.

I am in pain because i believed love was real .
                     I looked for it with tremendous amounts of zeal .
What did it do for me ? Except ****,
                                  All beliefs i had that people could feel.


Qu'est ce que la baise l'amour ?
