Tainted Canvas

"Passion Created with Colors"

Gentle touch of giant hands Upon a fragile canvas tainted Images that create desire A stroke of passion finely painted Colors that mix with ease Assorted hues vivid, bright and keen Wanting, craving, needing to please The artist stands back...

The Way I feel

"If anyone has been wondering why I haven't been on here writing, here is a hint =)"

A million butterflies,My heart exploding.In the dead of night,My voice a whisper.The soothing sound of your voice,My breathing erratic.Only your words matter.My heart listens.My arms empty,Longing to hold you.My mouth curved upwards,Involuntary reactions.The way I feel,Is perfect.This time it's real,Not...

Je ne regrette rien

"I regret nothing - with apologies to Edith Piaf for stealing the title of her iconic song."

Once It’s Over

"An anthem for the broken-hearted."

I was a nothingFor you,Perhaps a stone.Slate for you to tread uponThrough your journey to places unknown.Your feet scuffed at my surface,And your weight pushed me further into mudIn the rolling river you were crossingAs you arrogantly assumed my love....but...

Absence

"When friends or lovers are absent, memories fill the void"

When you are not here,When you are not there,When you are absent,Where do I turn?My voice calls out,But you are not there to hear me.My words?You are not there to read them.My heart?It sits alone,Unable to call out,Unable to find...

My Bad Boy

"Remembering someone special"

Always the good girl  But like most good girls With a weakness for bad boys, Dangerous boys making me a bad girl. An intelligent and elegant woman With a simmering sexuality beneath Never fully expressed with lovers Though still surprising...

How?

"An unanswered question"

This poem available only on Lush StoriesHollow Sucking pain and empty air roar past This gaping rift in the gap where once lay that Thing you reached in and Tore out and squeezed before my eyes As the red, dark,...
