Defenseless

Defenseless

Nothing really left to say

Captured by my own appetite

and thirst to experience a love unknown

  shackled by confusion

 

Hear me when I say no more

No more to be lead to what is thought to be

 the point

of no return

this the last and final frontier or so I thought

 

I was never too proud to beg,

but never wanted to be blinded by the uncertainty 

your mystery procures

My mind constantly embracing the intellect

that escapes your lips

leaping into my heart

 

Smitten by the warmth your soul flaunts

Yet unable to translate

Until the sum of all my fears

strikes a hearty blow

When no longer a part of you

 

Patiently waiting for an invitation

for you to play the sound of midnight

Often leaves the question

 Give you my devotion, remaining

Defenseless or leave while

allowing the tears

to refresh your memory when someone else

breaks your heart

Knowing Me

Do you know where I came from

Or where I want to go?

Do you know where my happiness lies

Or what touches my soul?

 

Do you know what shields me

Or what makes me defenseless?

Do you know how bright my heart shines

Or what peaks my interest?

 

Do you know how I love thee

Or how to satisfy?
Do you know how to love me

Or should tears I cry?

 

Knowing you is knowing me.

The Essence of You

The Words Uttered

I Love You

Are they meant for me?

 I Love You

Sounding from Atop

 Angels Wings

 

Gazing into your eyes

Your Adoration for Me

Lasting a Lifetime

Is What I See

 

I wear you on my sleeve

You're with me when I leave

Whether at work or on the bay,

Your Essence, Your Scent

Embraces me Throughout the Day.

 

I Inhale your Spirit

From Years Gone By

You Line My Senses

Soaring only where Eagles Fly

 

So Distinct Your Scent Has Become

It's Not Cologne or Soap You Know,

White Sands and Pristine Beaches

Waiting On Love To Grow

 

My Love for You 

Bottled Up In Time,

Your Happiness and Joy Found,

In My Heart and Between My Thighs.

The Moments in Love and Sweet Escape

I Await Your Arrival

Only Your Reservation Is Accepted

In My Love's Paradise!

Love's Melody

Immersed in your gift

Prolonging being submerged  in your waters

The blue horizon

Closer than my imagination could see
Out of the blue

An angel in disguise

Your deep waters have propelled me 

To the heavens

Waves crash against the rocks
Rhythms so smooth

Creating a joyful melody of love

So rare, So unselfish

Melting my heart at the very sound

Captivated by the unspoken

As you have arrived

Not expecting you so soon

 The embrace of your memory

Holds every breath one could breathe

Left standing defenseless

Listen and love me

As you feel the beat of

My heart caressing your

Senses

Strange Fruit

Not my own work....but feeling compelled to post. As time progresses one would only imagine that racism would no longer exist.

Southern trees bear a strange fruit,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Black body swinging in the Southern breeze,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.

Pastoral scene of the gallant South,
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth,
Scent of magnolia sweet and fresh,
And the sudden smell of burning flesh!

Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
For the sun to rot, for a tree to drop,
Here is a strange and bitter crop.

The Love We Make

I see you through the window of my soul

You know me better than anyone

  Loving all that I am and hope to be 

For you,  for us, and what I'm meant to be

Your ability to express what is within

What is desired by two loves bound by time love and desire

 All anyone could ask for

Face to face, eye to eye, tongue to tongue
 As powerful as a warm embrace welcoming me home

Cover me with undying passion

You are my everything 
 Whether we're together in each others arms
Or if we just embrace forever

It will be forever embedded in my heart and soul

The love we make

~~~Skin I'm In~~~

Expressions of Self-Random Thoughts

Volcanic lava

Warm, overflowing and electric

Rising with the belief that each day will be better

Dreams awakened

By losing oneself in forever

The edge of morning is near

My soul is aching to be

Somewhere other than here

The Connection

At the strangest times love makes a connection

Like the river your eyes run right through me

Unable to trust these feelings when we are miles apart

I look to the sun as you beam rays into my heart

Words escape me as crystal raindrops touch your skin

Making for the perfect quiet storm 'til morning

I hear the way you gaze at me

When our two souls collide

For you, the very best I've got

I've found you to be my favorite song

I take pleasure in following your melody

Your hands have suggestions plenty

At the strangest times love makes a connection

Falling

Sing to me the song of life
Breathe into my heart the strength of a thousand years
The feeling, unreal
The reality of truth feels so right
Everything I thought I knew is lost
Faith, I must believe in that which I cannot see
Wasting time, No
Out of touch?
Maybe
World turned upside down, caught up in the middle
Really? What's real?
Answers scurry away like the fall leaves blown away by your gaze
Must I leave it all behind or bring it full circle
Expecting the unexpected
Quality time spent
My comfort, your touch
Speaking in rhythm with the misty rain
Exploring infinite possibilities
Touching my soul
As I fall like rain in love with you
Unable to escape the storm
As the mist, the sweetest thing I know, kisses my bare skin
Chilling me with every drop
I ask only that you take your time
No need to rush
For I yearn to caress the moment
Melting in your passionate kiss
Falling
