Ivan Mar 5
lonely I have been for so long, so long
with a life full of wrongs,  I'm now alone
see, once I was loved by the man above
but now I only hear a mourning dove
Ivan Feb 25
could you please look in your purse?
you see, I gave you all my love
and left none for me

I'm sure I gave you plenty
and I so desperately need some now
please, could you return
a bit of that love I filled you with?

because I still have none for me
as you throw it all away to an abyss
could you please look in your purse?
I'm sure my love is spilling from it!
this was my first poem
Ivan Feb 23
she was the type of woman
that would float him
to conversations with angels
in one delicious word

and he, well...he was the type of man
that would sensually massage
her strawberry lips
with his thumb and index
to an absolute silence

so that he would not elevate
with her candy filled words
above her pedestal of worship
Ivan Feb 23
she is the exception
when my only rule in life
is not

last turn of our moon
celestial body looms
I will be home soon

sweetest poet,
climb forth from the deep trench
in my heart's wound
and quench my thirst for love

doctor of sensual phrases,
compose the melody, cure this malady
with verses that expose the affinity
that is inherit between her and I

satisfy the insatiable desires
of lustful humans yearning
for each other's skin

word smith,
chisel the spell to summon an orangy sunset
for the light will soon expire
as we conspire to set our bed on fire
for here, no consequence is dire
 
master lyricist, 
orchestrate wisdom in phrases
of sensual whispers that ripens
her delicious fruit until it drips
her brand of honey

and last
to the dear poet within,
"the muse awaits, so let's go
set the night on fire!"
Ivan Feb 22
eyes like wishing wells
whenever she looks my way
i drop a coin
I know this is not the traditional Japanese haiku.  I meant a haiku format and syllable count only
