When Words Cannot Suffice

I sing odes to you

Though you'll never hear

How my lips pine for your taste

How my body longs for your breath .

A mystery you are to me

When you wanted me

When I ran wanton and free.

But now that you caught me in your gilded cage,

What song must I sing

To make you dream of me again?

The slightest graze of your fingers

Burn me endlessly.

Your gaze strip me unbearably

My heart you had taken completely.

Now I shiver in this palace you built me

Walls of glass, my couches draped with silk.

Though the hearth burns with the bluest flames

You have yet to favor me

With a complete minute

Of you and I

Alone.

'Twas No Virgin

‘Twas No Virgin
‘Twas no virgin that snared this hart
Not with golden chains around its neck
But by enticing words that fell like pearls
That spilled and rolled against my icy heart.
Dear hunter, must you be
A lover or a ruthless master to me?

What fires scorched my spirit
That you now buried in the fathoms of your soul
Guarded by your nightmares that rendered you wild
Fierce and shocking are you
That in your embrace I seek both
Solace and escape.

Your seemingly delicate, pale hands
Skilled in holding a blade as well as giving amorous caress.
But this tenderness I have yet to taste.
For you withhold your kindness
As you tamed the beast in me
Sowing desires that brings devastation my senses.

teach me....break me....love me....

Teach me not to hate you....
You sought me not but I was cleverly caught...
You seemed an angel that night.
You drive me to despair and woo me with the ease
that would have made Casanova proud.
You know me so well.... My deepest desires...
the very temptations that I swore to oblivion
You personified...
You brought to life my blackened heart
and took it where it should be...
purified and blazing still
in the ocean of your soul...
Though I beg for sweet release...
I pray that you never let me go....
