On a New Year

I have left behind the timid

****** wondering me

for you, you beautiful alluring being

curves and all

such a mouth that can kiss and **** and lick

and touch things, swallow things and know me well

from the inside out, pushing a little of yourself into me

each time, overwhelming demanding

like a flower i gave birth to

delicate and in full body bloom

 

thank you for this

i shall know me in years to come

as that girl with the soft ******* and belly

cradling you in her arms with all her might

your mother, the lover, the lingering, the goodnights

 

i love you does not mean i will stay with you

i love the idea of what being with you would be like

but i am never to know and as i think about you and this

i can only smile, glad of the knowing of me

more than the pain of you forgetting me

 

blue and violet your fingers touch me

and i will become a rainbow of so many happy/sad moments

angry that you never gave in and you never wanted us as much as i did

but then copper dreams are for the girls in pretty dresses lining up

waiting for their chance with you

i will be traveling so high you will never see me, never know how gone i truly am

wandering along this path, a little crazy for love does that you know

tending to my little flock

whispering prayers so that we stay safe in my world of dreams and emotions

take this and know you were loved and well so

 

while we remain friends
