Lovelust
Ophelia May 2014
Do you know what "lovelust" is?
It's a craving for late night movies and early morning smiles.
It's a want for stolen kisses and borrowed fingers.
It's a hunger for shared secrets and inside jokes.    
It's a desire to know every inch inside and out of someone's being.
It's a yearning to touch and be touched by someone whose love for you burns as bright in their eyes as in yours.
It's the sick-to-the-stomach feeling you get when you picture yourself happy with someone else.
Lovelust is when you look into your friend's eyes and wish you could see more than just your own reflection inside.

The fences erected with barbed wire
A wall translucent with hints of light
The pace of my heart outshines the dark
The blight of the society keeping us apart
As the sea sways from shore to shore
Reign forever my love, I lay my cards to care
It’s the light from the window reigniting hope


The stroll by the ocean is a memory I hold
We first kissed and sealed as the fairly ceased
The reality of the skies and earth encased us
We met and I became a hazard to myself
Your love pierces deeper than crystallized salt
My pupils elongates as I strive your depths
The reminiscence of the pebbled path as I reach


A foreigner to the notion of love, I stray
Yet, on my travels your loneliness haunts me
Reappear to show me the exhibit of love
Clouds uncovered there is no where to hide
Unshell the cage and let me suffuse your all
Obtuse, no lust or obsession possessing me
Resurrect the innate human scenery of true love
I am open for One a week collaboration till March 2016. Interested? Leave a comment or message me.

No 3. One a week series collaboration with Lovelust
LoveLust will be the man to help you distinguish the notion of "love" and "lust". The focus of the poem was based on the 3 songs below:
Just another day- Jon Secoda
A different corner George Michael
More than words- Extreme (the melody bring me tears all the time)

The music triggered the emotional refill of the words.   The essence of tunes helped with the inspiration and to dig deeper.

What if you had a love? The one you want and care for so much, but there is a wall separating you. You can see them, them too.... but that's about it!

Lovelust loves music as a form of expression. This helped to bring the piece together... "music as the essence". I tend to love all genres but have some favourites too. It turned out that Lovelust loves "MUSE" a revolutionary band that I love so much too.
Madness by Muse
