Under the Stars


Under the stars

You took my breath away.

Under the fading light 

Your kiss explored as

I became yours.

Under the smile of the moon 

Your touch pleasured as

We became one.

Final Bow

we do our best
we try to aim
to reach the skies
to play the game

to live a life
of love and stars
of peace and joy
and no more wars

but we are tied
to earth and soil
we breathe the air
of nature’s toil

it may not be
we might not reach
the dreams we dreamed
the tales we teach

our flesh weighs down
it cannot be
that we are freed
into liberty

so take a moment
and say a prayer
blow it softly
into the air

all will pass
and this we know
struggles will end –
a final bow.

Seduction

He didn’t seduce me with sweet, kind, fake words. He seduced me with honesty and kindness and care. A compassion that was a balm to my wound. I felt safe with him. And I felt respected. 

Weakness

Two steps forward

Three steps back 

Forward to the light

And then looking back

Back to the darkness 

To the night 

My strength grows weak 

With every kiss 

With every touch 

With every smile 

With every sweet forever 

That was never mine to 

Keep 

Hair

I’m fighting the urge to cut off all my hair. I mean, as in cut it all off aka Britney Spears back in the day. The only thing stopping me is having to go to work with a shaved head. My fingers are itching so bad. So I’m writing this post instead.
