You row away

"A man watches his love leave"

This boat trip was once beautiful, but now you row away. Is there anything more that I can do to make you want to stay? I gave all the love I carried and made you feel so wanted. Did this...

She walks with me

"A man takes stock of his relationship"

When I am tired, she walks with me to catch me if I fall. She helps me carry all my ills, with no complaint at all. When I am scared, she cuddles me and gives the strength I crave. A man can suffer these...

The Want

"A man forgets for a moment."

Corporeal and cerebral; A siren of the net. Is this a dance we are having, or a thing to forget? Enticing and escaping; Words arouse and enthrall. My senses are filled. I see colour in all. Grace and tenderness; My heart is undone....

How can we?

"A man questions his lush-life."

How can we face this uncertainty,Running in its maze of dead ends?Fraught with the unknown.Hiding in shadows. How can we get past these barriers?Solid yet imagined,Holding back our passion,And burdening our spirits. How can we unleash our true nature?Simmering passion...

"A man contemplates his relationship."

Is this my body?Alone, apart from the tapping of keys,Unlocking your soul and spirit across the ether,Bowed by your elegance and fuelled by desire. Is this my desire?Words that arouse and stimulate my mind.Turning my body into a priaptic state.Wishing...

Cynicism

"A short look at the whole good guys vs bad boys debate."

Now gather ye round, All you men, young and old, For mine is a tale, You’ll seldom be told. Oh darling, I love you. Please promise you’re true, And I will spend all my life, Loving no-one but you. You...

The Player

"A player opens up."

Alone in the dark, I get to reminisce, About the girls that I used and the ones I just kissed, The notches too high, the hearts that I have torn, Without a care in the world I gave them my...

Perspective

"A light-hearted poem from an ex-player"

To put it into perspective, It seems my prime directive Is to be a little more selective When parking Percy in a hole. It's just he gets excitedWhen by a filly he’s invitedTo be orally delighted, And rubbed onwards to...
