I love it when I find a poem from my deleted blog that I can repost to my new on. In this case the poem found me. A Reader from London refound me and shared two. Thank you!
And afterwards, you are spent, your legs draped over the furniture, the flush in your cheeks, the look of amazement that once again you have been moved a little more beyond, forced by permission, and later by desire to become, once again, something new.
At times you seem a dream.
Impossibly perfect, if not for the world,
At least for me. Every line and confession.
Every slowly strip tease and revelation
Kept so silent for so long. Released. Shared.
Trusted. Every curve just where my dreams would have them.
Every desire a mirror. Dreams that became hopes.
But, time and distance, pasts and vulnerabilities
Have their cost. And yet, even now, apart,
You seem a dream more real than a heart can stand
And I am left not knowing what is and is not,
Like a night lost in lust, so deep it feels like
A movie without a proper ending,
Real and not real and a little floundering,
Something vintage and yet somehow still vibrant.
Lust lives. Love lives. The real thing never dies.
Tonight I may want you romantic and soft, gentle and yielding, your beauty gently on display, or I may want you trashy and eye-catching in a way that makes the world around us gasp and turn their heads, or I may want you bound, knowing the ravaging is to be brutal and you left with no relief, knowing there will be marks, and the most amazing thing, the wonder of you, is that whatever I want, you give.
It's the knowing. The certainty. That you will. That you want to. No, need to, move from fantasy to reality, anything, anything at all, to please me.
One of my poems from my deleted blog
I like you trussed. Helpless. Exposed. Your mind racing at what might be next, the nature of pleasure, the nature of pain; how, and how long I will take you.
I like to watch the rise and fall of your chest, how your breathing increases as I approach, your eyes darting to my hands. What are they holding? What signals do they give you? What are my intentions.
Your eyes dart as your mind roils and I revel in your gasp at my first touch.
I like you trussed, Hanging limp and spent afterwards, your voice low and raw, a single line or mascara down your cheek, your head bowed, I like the soft whimper as my hands run up your side, up your back the last time and I cut you loose, the way you fall into my arms, Your body spent. Your mind at rest. Your soul at peace.
Cry out. Shout. Gasp. Writhe.
Here you are mine and no one will hear your fear, your surprise or your surrender. You are mine. Now and forever.
I am slowly finding some of my old poems, and friends on Tumblr. This is one.
Blindfolded, you feel more intensely. Each caress. Each tiny pinprick of pain
is distinct from the other.
Until all subtlety is abandoned and I split you asunder, losing my control to my passion,
forcing each cry ripped from your lips, each one the consequence of your surrender.
Another poem from my old banished blog. Thank you all who saved and share these.
Who every made you believe, lied. Just because no one else has appreciated the curls or the curves or the drive or the emotions and all the beautiful abnormalities that set you apart, does not mean I am wrong in how I see you. It simply means, at long last, after a lifetime of settling, neither of us need to.
So bear yourself to me, one more time. Show me the flesh that is mine. Let me love you with all the tenderness of a night with wine and conversation before we break out the whips and the chains each of us finding satisfaction finally, without limits, unconventional, and so right.
You could easily believe you made her up
She is that perfect.
A perfection beyond skin and curve and smile
even when you own her, maybe
particularly then. So perfect
that had you not held her
flesh and her heart in your hands,
you would not believe she was real.
You could not have,
even in your dreams, vivid as they are,
created her or the love
her body emanates in every image,
memory and hope.
I love when one of my poems from my deleted blog finds me!
“It can be easy or it can be hard. I tell you as I undo the satin strap.
The speed and the depth of your breath tell me which as I pull off the last barrier
Incredibly thought-provoking, viscerally intense! Appreciate you for your expressions 🙏🎈
Thank you!
