Out of love...
RedD Sep 2018
For so many years I was His and He was mine

I mapped every millimeter of his body in my mind. He knew all of me too

And it was so good. We were so good at being close for all of those years

And if I close my eyes He is still in front of me. Now, together they make each other happy

I shouldn't be sad but I am, knowing I didn't make Him happy in the end

Its all gone to waste and I'm left wondering
When did we fall out of love?
Its still not easy to look back.
Mistakes were made and I live with those every day.
I always think other peoples lives are better than mine. I can't ;put myself in their shoes. I don't transfer easily. So who knows and unless He tells me I won't know

Addicted to you
RedD Sep 2018
I'm missing you so much tonight S, the memories from yesterday
dance behind my eyes, are locked in my mind, the way you kissed my lips, nuzzled the nape of my neck, traced the curves of my ******* and my body with your tongue setting off a tremor inside
When our bodies are joined it leaves me breathless. I'm addicted
to you . Its the only word that describes this feeling inside and just like all the other times my mind and body are never at peace until
I give it chance. So right now, I'll give it chance to explore those feelings again, alone. Close my eyes, take myself back to
our union, breathless and hungry for each other. Body to body, never wanting those moments to end. What a sight to behold. How you loved me, how I loved you how we became one with each other
It was beautiful. And I will always remember each moment shared. I never want this to end, loving you, wanting you
I want this forever and I hope you do too S

Days go by far too slowly
RedD Sep 2018
Its the worst feeling right in the lowest pit of my stomach missing you like this. Too many days pass without you, but my mind is engulfed by you, every moment of every day. The eternal void I constantly dread, that one that longing commands. Dates pencilled in when you come to town seem so far away, yet move ever closer and each day is more tangible than the last but so much further than the next. Our time is fleeting yet all encompassing but one blink and its gone. I wish tonight you were here next to me, just like I imagine every night. A cuddle, a kiss, a smile as we drift off to sleep. Internal landscapes we walk together. And upon waking in the glint of dawns first light, we share the day's first kiss. Fingers wander, tantalized by our warm flesh and pull each other close, hold on tightly never wanting to let go. And maybe I'll hold on too tightly and not let go. But that time will make itself known, when our bodies have to let go. I'll have to let you go again. I'll wait for the days to pass, moments which turn to hours, hours to days, days to weeks. So slowly they will pass. But my heart will beat just a little faster, a little stronger when I hear your voice and I know it won't be long S, until we can be together again.

Take hold
RedD Sep 2018
Words should come easily, but they don't
Only when something takes hold of me do the words flow
I need to be fired up for
my emotions to flood out
In this case its writing
Words
like this
Never before is this something I have felt the need to do
so I thank you for setting off this new discovery in me
A liberating time
I can let go
Without remorse
Regret or
false hope
I can write from within and be free to do so
And all this stems from you
The way you make me feel
I owe this very instant to you
To my discovery of self
and the discovery of life I want to make with you
There is so much we can discover
for ourselves
It's just a question of whether or not we allow this to happen
There is the possibility that this could all end tomorrow
I have to accept this
I try not to think this way but it jars all the same
If only I could read you each day
What your thoughts are
I could be a shoulder to rest on
warm skin to touch
Lips to kiss
A body to share
But I can't do this just yet, not yet for the long game
I hope that within this life we can make a space in the world
just the two of us at peace with each other
Make a new life of hope, to take on the future and leave the past behind
Just say the words S......

Some questions for you...
RedD Sep 2018
The feeling you have right now,
are you ever afraid that you will never feel it again?
That it will never be real?
That it never existed?
For what is that feeling without hope?
Is it too far from reach?
Could it be possible
that the feeling you have right now
might last forever?
Do you want that?
Do you not deserve that?
It would be a shame
not to try and make it
a possibility
If only life had all the answers

I am in love with a man
That man is you S
I want the world to know
The time will surely come

Time is precious, this I know
And I want to make
the most of every moment with you
All of you

You tantlise my soul
Ignite a fire in me
Radiate within me
And light our worlds up

For I am yours
eternally
If this is your wish
I feel your desire too

Too many miles separate us
Likewise too many days
Lets take a journey
for always
Its that L word again S ** thank you for who you are. Don't ever change ** Thank you for being part of my lifexxx

When all I want is you
You can’t be here
You want me by your side
To keep you warm
It’s all I want too
It’s a huge empty space without you S ❤️

Black is my world
Black contains me

White is the universe
White, far from my reach

Grey is the void
Grey waits to be filled
One step at a time but seems for the longest of times

How much can you take?
RedD Sep 2018
How many miles travelled
How many days spent apart
How many lies told
How many cruel words spat
How much blood spilt
How many pills swallowed
How many tears shed
How much anger unleashed
How much love lost

How much will it take to be happy again?

Alone
yet also not alone
'It's Complicated'
the statement of choice.

I don't want complicated,
who really does?
But like it or not
that's what this is.

One man,
one man for me
to give my love
I made this choice in you.

One woman,
one woman for you
to give you love.
Make that choice in me.

What we have is something good
so take my hand.
Who knows where this will lead
but I want to follow.

Though the walls
Could they hear you?

Through the open door
Did they watch you

Those 'not my' words
RedD Sep 2018
Songs of love
Songs of longing
Listening to the words
Which tie me in knots
How do they do that to me?
Tap into my thoughts?
My feelings?
My heart?
I need to purge
All the emptiness within
Unleash the sorrow for now
Once again
And each time you leave

Last night...
RedD Sep 2018
Last night was spent
for the briefest of hours
held in your arms
Exquisite movements
filled with breathless longing
made in unison
Until the inevitable time
which always brings dread
I wish you could stay
I'm not sure you know how much
I yearn for your embrace
each night
We could soothe each other to sleep
and the darkness which surrounds us
would no longer keep us awake

I never really deal well with saying goodbye. One day soon S, I hope we won't need to

A fleeting thought
RedD Sep 2018
I had a sudden memory of us together
while I was walking home today
I had to laugh a little
And wondered if my face
Gave the game away
Conveyed my thoughts
At the smirk across my face
Lips curled at the corners, the ones
You’ve kissed
So delicately
So passionately
It was so vivid, felt like you were there
Then I remembered I needed to go shopping later!
**** reality for shoving it’s **** in my face!
Getting a lot of nice thoughts lately, thank you S ❤️

Remnants

Hearts delicate
Got broken

Shards scattered
Discarded

Failed to see
In the dark

Searching for remnants
Every broken piece

Took its toll
On both of us

Acceptance
RedD Sep 2018
Love
It’s a curious thing
Wanted so much but wasted when you have it
If you have already it don’t waste it
Embrace it, cherish it but learn to let go if it’s no longer firing your soul.

That’s the hardest thing about love, the letting go

You can’t replace the love you once had but you can learn to make a new one

Each will be different
Each love will make you feel totally different
Learn to love a new love, accept it for what it is and how it makes you feel

Love
It’s a curious thing
Just some thoughts I shared recently
Not poetry as such
I’m learning to move on

My body at rest
My mind at peace
I hear the bell
That familiar tone

You reach out from afar
My senses quicken
I reach too
Stretch out my hand

To hold you close
I listen to your voice
A tone so familiar
My heart, it melts again

Just like before

And like it always will
I will never tire of hearing your voice S ❤️

Not my cup of T
RedD Sep 2018
You got me drunk
You got me ******
Invaded my weakest moments
So desperate to please
To feel something
I had my doubts

I told you what I liked
Hoping you liked the same
We tested the waters
Pushed the boundaries
Learning together
I had my doubts

You punished me
Took my breath momentarily
Hurt me, made me want more
I came to you for all of this
You made sure
But I had my doubts

I got me drunk
I got me ******
Feeling everything but nothing
I had my doubts

From the haze I awoke
Standing on the filthy kitchen floor
No longer in doubt

I didn't want to hurt
Didn't want to get drunk
Didn't want to get ******
Just to feel something

I had to let you go
To get on with your life
Of getting drunk
Of getting ******
I like to think you've changed
But I have my doubts
One of the hardest points in my life recently, at my most vulnerable. Luckily I woke up

When you left on Wednesday
RedD Sep 2018
How do I feel now?
Now that you are gone?
Not gone from my life
But only at the end of a phone?

A few words written
A few at a time
A few days at a time

I can't touch you
I can't taste you
I can't kiss you

I love to do all these things
I know you love them too

I long to hold you
To stroke your face
Kiss your neck

Feel your body next to mine
Feel your warmth inside me
Filling me with joy

That I can't explain
Its for us to share
But I want to share this forever

Do you feel the same?
Until the next time S ❤️

From across the room
I catch a glimpse

You stand tall
Physical yet vulnerable

Longing holds my heart in chains
Remembering times we have spent

Entwined

I feel this each time
I catch a glimpse

Of you

Lets break these chains
My love
If only everyone in the room could see how much I want you S

A letter, my world
RedD Sep 2018
I have too much on my mind don't I?
Feel too much honesty too soon
Too soon for you?
Possibly
I apologise

I apologise my way through life, always
Its just how it always is
Has always been
But I won't apologise about my feelings for you
I can't
I won't

You make me feel this way
You must own that
I own it, I own my feelings now
I'm not afraid if people know
(about us)
But its not the right time
Just now
I know this

And that is what's so hard
Having to contain everything I feel
Just like a ball in the palm of my hands
I'm so afraid if I let go
I'll never get to hold it again
It will roll too far away
Out of reach

And Someone else will pick it up
Take it for their own
I'm not good with sharing
I don't want to share
Not you anyway
1st page started of as this then I vomited out a 5 page A4 letter
Good to release
Might hide those 5 pages

All of this

My mind is hindered
Words hard to fathom
How to convey?
Just let the words flow
From pen
To the paper
Connect from the heart
I'll tell you these things, S
I've never felt such as this
For one man,
You
Vulnerable
Yet strong enough
To tell you how I feel
But unsure if you feel the same
Meet my gaze
Feel my touch, my fingertips
Buzzing with electricity
Across the earth to your soul
Static fills our bodies
Embrace the energy we create
Light from within
Will guide us
To a place
Just for us
And us alone
For S

RedD Sep 2018
The wait is agony
Yet ecstasy too
Just knowing that soon
We will be together
Alone
Holding on to feelings
That are so strong
That I want to share
Let me in
Let me feel
What you feel
I will give you mine
When you are ready
I will wait
In agony
For ecstasy
The first piece I wrote. A recent thing to deal with life I suppose.
Even looking at this piece I see a lot has changed but still don't know whats in store

We met one night
Unaware at the time
Preoccupied with lives
Unhappy and unknown

Time has passed
Feelings grown stronger
Our bodies willing
But time denies

Hope gets stronger
Each time we meet
We'll be preoccupied
With only each other
Happy and known
I still remember that first night, a lot has changed since

Waiting...
RedD Sep 2018
The hardest part is letting you walk out the door
Back to your life
That I know hurts you
That I know exhausts you
That consumes you

I want to be there for you
To take away the hurt
I want you to be yourself again
To be happy
To be free
To say and do what makes you content
Without regret

I adore touching you
Kissing you
Loving you
The taste of your lips on mine
The touch of your tongue on mine
Every caress carves with such intensity
Sometimes too unbearable
Because I want this so much
With you
Your touches
Your closeness
Your warmth
Makes me whole again

I will wait for you
My door remains open
I will let you in

— The End —
