Poetry

Covered

Body tingles As hot water Pours over my flesh.

Eyes closed Licking lips Imagining you’re here

Far away In the corners of my mind I can feel you.

Bodies together Slippery when wet Covered in beads of sweat

Then she cries I’m home again Dreaming of going back.

A flickering Candle The wind blows strong Through the black sky No stars to be seen I wonder why

My light is gone But, I’ll see him again I’ll light a candle And wait till then.

And every time I think of you That candle will flicker And I’ll know... you’re thinking of me too

Bath A scented candle My senses indulge My body enthralled

Hardened nipples

From cool air above Dreaming of when I was with my love

Wonderful sex

And wishes coming true Up all night Talking with you

We share our lives together Weather near or apart Forever sharing with you Whatever’s in my heart.

He walks into the room Nothing needs to be said Everyone knows his name And mine is now the same

I once was Amanda But now she’s gone And for the rest of my life] I’ll be known as his wife.

I may sound upset That my identity is gone Quite the opposite is true All of you

His eyes So dark Fill with light.

His skin So soft I touch with delight

His hands So soft Caresses my pale skin.

His body’s So right As he pushes in.

I remember that night Like it was yesterday Emotions high Not knowing what to say

We did what we could To say good-bye Not letting you See me cry

I wanted to tell you Not to go But all I could say Is I love you so

Waiting Sipping hot coffee Burns my tongue Passing time Till this is done.

Cold flesh warmed With thoughts of you Wondering if Sleeping with the phone Praying you’ll call Trying to be strong A single tear will fall

December 18 I sit up at night Dreaming of you Alone in a be meant for two

I’ll never forget The memories we’ve made And how quickly they could fade

No kiss could compare To the one that day I’ll never again feel that way.

But even after All the time that’s gone by We still continue to try
