Did you
hear it
The sound
was deafening
An intense roar
in my ears
The reverberation
rattled my bones
And thundered
through my soul
Your ego muffled
the sound
But I heard it
loud and clear
The sound of
my heartbreak

You were a good teacher.
You taught my skin to delight in your caress.
My fingers learned to search for yours.
I learned to listen for your whispers.
My sighs learned your name.
My desire learned to match your heat.
My pulse learned to quicken with your embrace.
You taught me to thirst for your touch.
I learned the loneliness of empty nights.
You taught my tears to fall in your absence.
You taught me how to say goodbye.
I learned of a broken heart.

Kiss me in the rain
Love washes
over me
Flames
no downpour can extinguish
Thunder
in my heart
Washing away
doubts
Washing away
past demons
Kiss me
in the rain

Your lips trace
my curves
My heart pounds
under your fingertips
Your touch
fire
Your touch
all

Lay me down among the pines.
I smell earth, wood and your skin.
The sun dapples your face.
Goose flesh in the breeze.
Bird calls echo my sighs.

He watched me from a distance
I could tell from the shivers running down my spine
Though I pretended not to notice
My body and gaze remained stable
Even as my heart rumbled faster than the ocean's waves
I longed for him to paint my thin lips
With the truth in his tongue
Reciting his desire to know my heart's contents
The air was vibrating with a lust so thick
He didn't have to whisper in my ears
My body melted just from the heat of his calm gaze
As he moved closer to me, yet not close enough
The world seemed to be completely still
Not even the bees buzzed at the scent of the flowers
I wish I could turn my head
And let my eyes dive into the depths of his soul
But I remained fixed on the endless waters
I knew not of his existence till now
Yet i found myself drawn to him somehow
I imagined that when he spoke
His voice would be as raspy as the sand beneath my feet
But would still manage to soothe my fears at the least
My mind craved to kiss his intellect
My heart ached to nurture his flaws
I had "fallen in love" so many times
But this feeling was foreign to me
It had to be love redefined

Sitting on the silky sand enjoying the afternoon,
Watching the sun set over the mystic horizon of the Atlantic,

We walked in fields of lavender
on the sixth day of July
On a summer evening
beneath a clear blue sky
Lordington near Chichester
high on Sussex hills
to watch the setting of the sun
A cure to cure all ills

Watch my eyes, they dip and dive, my hand over my mouth,
my chin in my shoulder, away like the cold – it’s spring. Let’s go.
The trees are shaking off their bitter time spent contemplating their
poesy to sing. Now, they begin the music, green notes illumed
lightbulbs, they’re on. Let’s head outside into the ramose sunshine.

we do not need words
we do not need a shared
written language
we have eyes that truly see
lips that speak a common tongue
a shared palate for the aroma

“The very essence of romance is uncertainty.”
― Oscar Wilde
Oh! how fleeting it was
how softly it made me blush
left my heart
feeling so sanguine
a feathered touch

Heard the words from your mouth,
That all things either end or head south;
After forgetting about the moment hear and now
Neglecting the good, golden rays falling upon the brow

Catching of the gaze
