I have not met you
but between the swigs of red wine
I’d give you my lips to savor
And though you’d devour me completely
I’d linger between your thighs
And slowly ride you until we
Meet at our dark release
Yep.

Lately, there is always
this man trying to
take something away
from me.
Big sparkly things
like my soul.
They say it has
magic in it.
Real magic
I can feel
and see with my body.
The good kind of magic
that could tip the whole wide
world in my favor.

You hide the Sun from me.
With your cool effervescent hues.
Like night whispers over fevered skin.
You mend me.
Shade is underrated.

You were born to
Be devoted like
A gentle sun
placed at the center of it all
And whoever revolved around you
Would know you as bigger than life
Caught in your orbit
Like nature never intended
for you to go unnoticed or un-loved
You are the center of it all.

You move within me
this fluttering heat inside.
Drool to slow sips,
my tongue forms into your lips.

You expel at a distance,
The demons we come carrying.
As you taste me unseen
from your pillow.

I stretch and bend hoping
You’ve caught my kiss.
You cut the pain and
I take you in like medicine.

When the moon is waning
drink up the sleeping sky
And fall into the night

She defends you even
In your naked failings

You who would worship the
intrusion of the Sun

You who would amply deny the
Protection of evening’s grace

She is of silver and magic
the stuff made of secrecy

Behold the night in all her
Dark majesty
And she shall set you free

Lovebites

I guess all of the
yelling and biting
Has paid off.

He is in awe.

I bring to him this pain
Whenever he is empty.
When he is waiting
for me to meet him at his ghost.

He brings to me this
rejection whenever
I am hungry.
When I want more.

The kind that refuses
even stolen kisses.
The kind that revels in power.

I am astounded as I feel it.

We both just want to walk awake.
To feel everything within each instant.
To welcome the gut in every waking hour.

We’ll make each other feel something,
even if it is from teeth gripping at ****** skin.
