why bother, when
i have no lover
to hold or to be held
in his arms melt
Sam Lee Riggs Sep 26
The storm rubbles in the eye
Of the man who never said goodbye
The lilac clashes against the fire
Home is the one place he is the liar

And the passion of flames fills his ears
The loudest screams, he does adhere
From the doubt he set at an early age
Caught in the cycle of endless rage

The scarred lips touch his own
The array of curls is not unknown
To the limit of time he did not speak
But in the stars the fire does seek

In quiet corners where shadows sway,
I hide desires that dare not betray.
A secret world, a whispered ale,
Yearning for love, yet fearing to be free.

In the dance of veils and subtle signs,
I navigate paths where truth entwines.
A heart in turmoil, longing to confess,
Yet bound by silence, an unseen caress.

But fate's gentle nudge, and subtle signs,
Draws me from darkness, breaks the wall.
To face the light, to embrace the day,
Where hidden desires find their way.

In the tender gaze and fleeting touch,
I glimpse a world where hearts clutch.
To finally breathe, to finally see,
The possibility of you and me.

So let the whispers fade, the doubts subside,
As we unravel secrets we've tried to hide.
In this quiet revolution, we'll find our way,
Where love can flourish, and we'll finally abide.

that's just the way the body goes i guess
wanna mould my hands around his shoulders
through t-shirt and pyjama pants
wonder what the mirror shows him

that perfect mouth is smiling
do i wanna be him or ingest him
i wish that i could memorise it
wanna put my mouth around the reflection

kiss him everywhere until he sees red
hold his perfect imperfect face and
taste myself on his breath
take his arms or be held in them
i wanna feel and i wanna know
i guess that's just the way the body goes
everyone knows the waist / is just the way the body goes - mccaferty
I'm trying not to stare cause you're built like heaven
you walk back in the door, flushed
strong, but all curves and lashes
keys in your hand and your jacket comes off

delivery boy, talk to me?
you look different up close
and I'm wondering if i kissed you
would you taste like pizza sauce?

talk while I'm falling apart
i'm looking you dead in the eyes
and i don't get paid enough for
the way your breath makes your chest rise

oh, you're clocking out?
well, I'm stopping mid order
you want pepperoni?
i made yours with extra

my love is fine
like a powdered diamond
it gets blown in the wind
and it's unrecoverable.

together, its beautiful
but without form, it's
without worth

stop looking at me in the hallways
i misinterpret your green eyes all ways.
stop making me fall for you.
im your hired unhired loverboy

hopeless in the hope he notices
how i look at him, with all the love in my eyes
and how i act around him, hypnosis

hopeless in the hope that he's bi
or even if he pities me and asks me out
but i know that is a lie

when i feel his breathe on my skin, i shudder
at the thought, but its
just a dream, i dont matter

Just him and me
in that classroom,
Everyone has disappeared ; i feel no one else here but him
but he sees everyone.
I'm not a third wheel
or even a fourth or fifth,
but I am the dirt on the ground that they ride over.

I've had enough of ***,
not because I don't find you attractive,
but because I desire your soul over your pole.

I don't yearn for your body anymore,
for i'd rather get lost in the green of your eyes,
or feel your brunette bed hair on my fingertips.

i'd prefer to lay beside you,
me reading plato's republic,
and you, attempting to read along.

So please, do not take this offensively,
this is the most loving thing i've said to anyone
because you're mine and i'm yours
I've had enough of ***.
