I sit
  and I tried
and I
  almost died..

My mind
  was in
     such a mess...

And then
  I realized..

I could never
  write anything...

As beautiful as you.

"Poets, it's said, are shamans of words.  
    True shamans are poets of consciousness."

A Love I Seek

There is a love I so desperately seek
I will never stop searching for it
To find the other half of my heart
The half that makes my soul sing
My missing puzzle piece

There will be one
That begins where I end
And dreams the same dreams
Who can envision what I see
Who understands my insanity
Yet grounds me and keeps me sane

I want the companionship of a best friend
The protection of a father
The intense passion of a lover
A soul mate
For life

I don't seek material things
Someone to grow old with
Enjoy the days and nights with
A hand to hold until the end
When we temporarily say until we meet again

No road is easy
Of this I am sure
But knowing you are right beside me
Fighting the fight
I promise you
I will never give up
On you, me, or us

When I find him
I will simply ask
Will you
Walk with me through this life
Share with me all you have to give
Hand me your heart

If you say yes
I vow to you
I will protect your heart for an eternity
And even that won't be long enough
To be with you

My promise to you
Is to love you
Honor you
Be a 50/50 partner
On this journey of our life

I knew one day
I would find you
My life is now complete
Take my hand, my love
And let's take the first steps
Of our beautiful life

There are days
  when I write my poetry in pencil,
  just in case.  

      But when I write about you,
      I use my favorite pen,

             You're the poem
             I'll never erase...

Shed my skin,
and bare my soul.  
  
Lead me not into the night,
  for I will not be broken.  

Poetry is my salvation.

Within you
I find my safe place
You are my home

Without you
I search for your sanctuary of comfort
Though you are never far

Knowing all I need to do
Is feel your heart
Inside mine

Within you
I lose myself
gifted daily with your forever love

Without you
I find myself wanting to be lost again
Just us, as we say

Never to be found
Without you
By my side

lay waste to this body
devastate me in the most delicious ways
send me heaven bound over again
taken me to the stars
introduce me by name

body fevered with lust's sin
aching for a forceful touch
strong hands that grip and *****
pushing and pulling
stimulating my womanly parts

******* harden and stand *****
soft cries drip from wanton lips
moans echo quietly in your ears
caressing curves
kissing crevasses hungry for a feast

body taut and senses tingled
nibbles down my throat
hands grasping heaving *******
abundant handfuls indeed
******* pinched and suckled

pond overflows with passion's nectar
swim in my waters
delve deep into my wanting pool
splash about and tease me mercilessly
hear my cries of tormented anguish

back arched and hips raised high
begging for release
give to me your throbbing desires
push yourself deep into my soaked flower
pollinate me with passion's rewards...
