Words hold in them a special power. Even one word can change the direction of your life! "What if" one of my words could stop a person from committing suicide, cutting themselves, feeling hopeless or feeling that they are not worth fighting for? I write for the "what if" ...
I heard you were going away On a one week holiday This makes me sad for sure You are the one I adore Its only a week I know The time, how fast will it flow? My hope is quite quickly Without you I get a bit prickly Its no secret I am into you So remember, without you I'm blue Your sweet words I'll miss But mostly your kiss While you are away, I'll catch up on books and work I guess that will be a perk Not wanting to seem unsteady But I miss you already

I Miss You Already
Darling, have we reached perfection? The pinnacle, the peak Our hearts and minds fully aligned No need to utter a word to be heard Darling, can I call you mine? Your name, eternally on my lips Satisfied each day with your presence I'll guard your heart from pain Darling, can I be your lover? It began with a touch of your hand Now I'm aroused by the rest of you Continuing to quench desires thirst Darling, how can I resist your beauty? Your eyes, they smile at me, I'm crushed Lips of silk, work their magic Hypnotic curves, lead me astray Darling, can you stay? With me till my last breath Our story, it's not yet finished ... ... Darling, can you stay?

Darling, can you stay?
Coworkers seeking chit chat I've a long night at that Smiling and nodding robotically If I leave they will hate me The office party is on They usually drag on till dawn I look around for a spot Just to hide out from the lot Raising my head I see you Eyes bright and blue You look in my direction I smile to show affection As you move near me My heart begins it's plea Your fragrance precedes A temptation indeed Inches from me you stand I reach out my hand You slip your fingers in mine Pulling me close its divine You whisper in my ear Why are you trembling dear? I answer with a gentle kiss Your smile tells me you like this My intention is to hold you close And dance until we overdose My hands enjoy your curves Another kiss to calm your nerves Our bodies move in unison This night has just begun Dance with me till daybreak These feelings I can't fake

Blue Oceans (haiku)
I always think big A trait that not all my friends dig Yet some find me as sweet as a fig When I drink I just take a swig Believe me, I am not wearing a wig My heart can be snapped like a twig But most days I am dancing a jig Overall life is a pretty good gig

Life Is Good
*Your lips move slowly, yet, in this moment there is silence. Your warm breath caresses my face.* And with anticipation I don't need words. Everything you need to say is whispered in your thoughts   and echoed by your fingertips. *Your touch is thunderous, resounding deep within us   penetrating all my defenses, filling that space between us. In these moments I submit.* Powerless to resist this passion. Ecstasy and lightning entwined, flashes of lust and love spark from skin to skin, as the silent storm surges over us. *Briefly the world is muted. Only you and I exist, fully exposed. Vulnerable, we surrender completely, trusting this silence to satisfy our unquenchable appetite.*

Silent Storm (collaborative poem by Elizabeth J & Michael L)
Autumn is fading Trees once clothed with amber leaves Stand exposed again

Autumn Fades (Haiku)
You are a benevolent visitor Inaudible as my dreams Everything you touch Turns to crystal and white Oh how my eyes delight In your beautiful patterns As you lay quietly upon glass Can you stay forever? My flesh abhors you For the sting you administer yet Autumn's half-stripped trees Wear you as a morning garment I do blame the sun As it shortens your reign Your brevity intensifies my desire To see you on the morrow

Frost
You agitate, I soothe I laugh, you cry You procrastinate, I plan I toil, you sleep You mingle, I retreat I reach, you blench You deceive, I release I purify, you violate You mystify, I enlighten I grow, You shrink You ignore, I explore I create, you destroy You devour, I nibble I give, you take You walk, I run I defend, you assault You subtract, I add I love, you hate

No Harmony
As the wind does blow Through the trees in the forest I hear your heart cry
