Whenever you leave me
I find myself
listening
for your heart-beat
within the songs
you linked me...

I search out
your smile reflected gently
within each emoticon
and lol message sent daily...

If only your touch
could be so easily found
amongst your words
offering some semblance of sweet comfort
to my aching heart

so until tomorrow
when you again reach out
to hold me close

I bid you goodnight and God speed
for time apart is truly
such sweet
sorrow.
Thanks to Shakespeare for the sweet sorrow line

Tis time this poet put to bed
all the words he's yet unsaid
or written down to here be read
but fear ye not I will

So rest ye well and all good night
I'll see you come the morning light
as darkness once more put to flight
by sunlight on the sill

Sweet dreams to all my friends

You tie me to the bed
with knotted sheets each night
as I
toss and turn
dreaming of your hands
caressing me
clawing at my naked flesh
with freshly painted claws
your mouth inches
from mine
teeth bared as you bite
tugging my
bottom lip
between your lacquered lips
tongue tip teasing
the ache in me
as again I awake
perspiring
yet smiling

You want me to stop loving you...

fine
then here's a knife

cut my heart
from my naked chest.

You want me to stop saying I love you...

fine
take these scissors

cut my tongue
from my open mouth.

You want me not to feel love for you...

fine
take this axe
and chop off my hands.

Happy Now In your ignorance

for love is not in the heart or word
nor is it in touch

love is deeper
way beyond the understanding of you and I

for love once given
can never be taken backnor taken from one

it's the scent
you wear unnoticed upon your skin

the image of a smile
that lifts you when others knock you down

it's the uncertainty and the doubt
made trivial beneath the weight of promises
and kisses

it's here
it's all of me and more

for love lives on
long after you or I my dear

erase me from your life
your photographs and video collection

but
I'll still be playing on your mind

See her shake her *****
as she stirs those pots and pans,
her hips a thing of beauty
as she taps them with her hands.
Her slippers keeping rhythm 
as she shimmies cross the floor,
and she's singing along with em'
as she rocks from 12 till 4.
She's a twisting and a turning
as she raises up the heat,
with the passion she's a cooking
in her crazy tea time beat.
Clapping hands and jiving
as she adds a pinch of spice, 
now her upper bodies writhing 
as she slaps her buttocks twice.
there's hand prints on her bottom 
where the flour left it's trace,
and she shakes em' cause she's got em'
with a smirk upon her face.
Now she's potato mashing
as she did back in her day,
and boy she still looks smashing
as her hips so softly sway.
Now shes Serving up and beckons
for me to pass my plate,
asking if I fancy seconds 
then the meal will have to wait.
Now she's walking to the bedroom
with a two step on her mind,
and I turn up the volume 
and close the door and draw the blind.

Peel me like an orange
and
enjoy my exposed flesh

I wonder what's for tea
I wonder if he/she likes me
I wonder if I passed my exam
I wonder if he/she likes whom I am
I wonder if I should ask them out
I wonder if they'll laugh or shout

I wonder
