Butterflies

June 12, 2022June 12, 2022Vonita Leave a comment

I’m trying my best

I’m shutting my mind 

I’m reading a book

I’m eating sweet cake.

Anything to qualm

These pesky annoying sweet 

Butterflies 

Flying

Flapping

Flickering

Inside of me.

As Tiny As

November 12, 2021Vonita 2 Comments

A thought

As tiny as a thought can be

Popped alive and into being

A thought of you

Gained strength and speed

Intwined its limbs and wrapped itself

Around my hapless

Helpless craving

A thought of you

Devoured the whole of

Me and in its wake I was left with nothing

More than a wafting scented dream of

You

I’m Here

December 30, 2018Vonita 7 Comments

I’m here if you think of me

I’m here if you care

I desire you daily –

My nights filled with dreams

Reach out and touch me

My female awaits –

You are my destiny

My soul mate

My love.

Do You Dare?

I love that you love me

I love that you care

I love that you kiss me

I love that you dare

To hold me and touch me

Caress everywhere

Loving You

August 19, 2018Vonita 13 Comments

A wish for you

A dream for me

I wish my love could be

Higher than the stars above

Whiter than the snow

Deeper than the roaring sea

So my feelings go

Everywhere I look for you

At every point I turn

I see your shining eyes

Looking back at me

I love you now

I love you then

I will always love you

So

Tender Moments

July 25, 2018Vonita 4 Comments

Tender moments feed my

Soul.

Touch my skin.

Quench my

Desire.

Tender moments spark my

Love.

Draw me nigh.

Light my

Fire.

Falling

April 17, 2018Vonita 8 Comments

The best part about falling in

Love

Is when everything and everywhere and

All others cease to be

Visible.

The world stood still as beneath

An amber sky your lips grazed

Mine

Truth

November 24, 2017Vonita 2 Comments

The brutal truth is that

I view the landscape through

Romanticized spectacles

When the reality is an ocean

Removed from romance

In any shape or form

Under the Stars

July 21, 2017July 21, 2017Vonita 12 Comments


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.
