Burn
IvyB Xx Feb 2015
I'm confused
Dazed
Pondering on myself
Questioning beliefs
Doubting up-bringing
Do I want her?
Do I need her?
I didn't think so at first
But every single time she talks to him
God,
It drives me mad.
That's it
I want her
Like a kid at Christmas
I need her
Like a moth to a flame.

Falling for you...
IvyB Xx May 2015
"Falling for you was the most adventurous thing I have ever done.
Going against all of my beliefs and traditions, I dived right in.
I decided I would be the one that would search and accept your flaws along with your beauty but I wouldn't dare tell you that they look exactly the same to me.
My words can do no justice to the gracefulness of your movement or captivating sound that is your voice.
The detail of your eyes cannot be expressed as the beauty of them runs too deep and the velvet touch of your fingertips to precious too tell.
You're not my first love and you may not be my last but one thing I am certain of is I am falling for you"

Have you ever...
IvyB Xx May 2015
Have you ever noticed the way I stare at you from the corners of my eye?
Have you ever heard the way I say your name as though you have done no faults?
Have you ever seen the way your vocabulary slowly slips and Mixes in with my own?
..
I bet you don't

Talking
IvyB Xx May 2015
"You wanted a ****,
I wanted too talk.

Yet you thought you would ease into it by starting with my clothes.

You ruined it all by asking for them off,
because you thought I was just another stupid ****.

I never thought you would ask for that ,
but there it was when you wanted my ******* to drop"

"Hands around my waist,
Your warmth engulfs me.

Whispering in my ear,
Your secrets are my desire.

The rhythmic beat of your heart,
It demands mine to follow suit with a few skips along the way.

Your love dominating the space of the atmosphere,
Taking my breath away with it"

What Have I Done?
IvyB Xx Jun 2015
"What has become of myself?
Never ever have I been seen like this.

You have stripped me right down,
everything on view for your piercing naked eyes.

Don't be fooled,
You have gone a lot further than the fabric on my skin.
You have been past the blood in my veins,
and,
all of my tender muscles.

Much further than the burn of my sarcasm,
and,
the shield in my blue orbs.

You have journeyed successfully to my heart,
and,
have caressed it in your fingertips.

I ask that you don't look further on and gouge your fingernails into the flesh,
ripping and tearing apart my soul.

Although I think we both know that if my final breath was drawn from that,
Your  name would still be the last word that would seal away the oxygen for good"

Love Me

"Caress me as if you were holding your heart in your own hands.

Scream my name as if it was the only word

that could comprehend with your tongue.

Love me like you had never loved another in your life before"

Tears
IvyB Xx May 2015
I didn't know I could feel this way, particularly for you.
Its like you knew what you were doing when I fell for you.
Then when I finally owned up to it you hid back and consumed yourself in the darkness, blending in with the crowd.
Now I latch onto anything to free my thoughts from you.
Yet no one can help for they cant see,
That the only one that can cure me is yourself, but that wont do much since you're the reason for my tears.
