Lying to the World
SamBee Feb 2013
I could say it is so precious,
But then I would be lying.

I could say we are all lucky;
Everyone would believe me.

I could pull that microphone up to my chin,
Curl my lips around the thirty different voices,
Repeat it over and over,
Year after year after year.

No matter how much I ate at that microphone,
I would still go to Hell
For all the lies I told the world,
About itself.

Summer
SamBee Apr 2014
Thinking of the glory days,
docked,
floating,
skin wrinkling,
pruning,
smiles, smiles, smiles, cracked fresh,
fresh; fruitful.

Fish with flesh,
tiny nubs of teeth nibbling on dead skinned feet.

I bathe.
I bathe in water liquid smooth skinned fluid flowing flown.

I fly.
I fly though atoms,
push hand-cupped chunks of doubled hydrogen, hidden oxygen
I cannot break, though I wish.
Oh how I wish.

I feel.
I feel rocks,
rotting logs,
small, stumbling, mushy soil,
kicked up by those smiles --- Summer.

Summer soaks through my skin, sweet liquid comfort caressing senses, slowing down, softening blows of structure, society, starvation, stagnation, sending me to a sanctuary, to pure sobriety, serenity.

Liquid licking flesh speeds up my sexuality, my simple slippery sensual seduction sliding slyly between the sunken valley sitting between my stems.

Water fuels me.

Summer.
***.
Summersex.

I feel
Liquid
all around.
I am floating through my summer;
Swimming through ***.
Swimming with.
With: in connection to; in sync.
Aside. Astride.

Summer; swimming.
Summer; ***.

Stroke, stroke, stroke. I float.

Can We Talk? (10 words)
SamBee Feb 2013
Can we talk?
Because I feel like I'm suffocating you.

Waking Beside You
SamBee Jan 2013
A break of beams rush through the blinds.
Sleep sizzles in my ears and nose.
I sink beside your wall of skin.
Our eyes are heavy and
Flutter from the weight of eachothers sight.
Words week out and hang
Between our lips.
A good morning is sung
As my hands stretch over to you.
Your warmth vibrates into my palm
As I grasp
More and more of you.
Mornings this bright
Leave me dazed,
But my mornings would be nothing without you.

A Second Haiku
SamBee Dec 2016
clouds in sky - sweeping
what does it mean to be wind?
where will I go next?

I'm so in love, I feel it in every world I know.

Ten words
SamBee Jan 2013
Could I **** a man
whose heart has rotten anyhow?
I saw a lot of people were doing poems with only 10 words, so I wanted to try one.

A Voice to Trust
SamBee Nov 2015
Released from expectations, obligations, complications, observations;
Capable - clear by daylight, clear by night;
A self illuminated.

Remove her charm,
Remove her front.
Relinquish the gilded guise,
Ridding the mark.

Some might find their heart to go for the sake of anger,
a selfish motive.
But love is not lacking in this new world:
An opening indefinable,
elation in every intentional step.

Recognize, fully,
the satisfaction on her cheeks,
as disregard of fright rushes through her mind -
Cleared to find the features of fret soften;
Hear a humming  worry no more.

Throw into this world of freedom,
stripped of symptoms from her most prominent loss
- a certain faith -
she now becomes a voice to trust.

— The End —
