Poetry: Intimate

Forever Unfulfilled

Don't touch me
I'm not pretty
Turn off the lights
And pretend I'm someone else.
My confidence and allure
Are a charade I hide behind
The truth inside
Is that I will never be satisfied.
In the darkness
You won't see my tears
My moans won't waver
Despite the lump in my throat.
I am forever alone
As the emptiness within grows
My mind is always somewhere else
I can never let go.
I used to find pleasure in this
But now I am lost
You will never understand me
I am just something to be possessed.
Even in the dimness of candles
I will close my eyes
As kisses fall uselessly
Upon a body now numb.
I will cry out
And complete the illusion
While inside I sob
And lose my soul in this aching void.

    Euphoric bliss,
    exaltation in flight.

    Eyes interlocked.
    Gazing
    R eaching

    Riding the storm

    I found a place to lay my head
    then curled up on that warm firm bed
    A wave rose up to brush my skin
    I couldn't

    Intimacy in Motion

    I own the night, every curve
    Every crease, is mine
    Drips with jasmine and myrrh
    Incense caresses your skin
