After it all. The night. The taking.
The fantasy and madness.
The beyond expectations and in some cases,
Imagination. After your heart’s wildness,
The heaving breath. The throat sore from cries.
The marks.
After there is no one left but you and I
And the messy memory of our hours
And orgasms. After it all, there is this.
You in my shirt. A cup of tea.
My arms open to hold you
As long as you need to let it all sink in,
Allowing lust to become love
And memory,
and the certainty of more.
The others, the ones before, the ones who have shared you, those who thought they owned you, and perhaps you too believed they did, until us, when you discovered what owned actually means and gave yourself to a slavery you only dreamed of before, liberating and eternal, no matter the distance.
Lift up your hair and let me kiss you gently on the soft nape of your neck.
Stand still as my arms wrap around you, as my hands slide under your silken blouse to feel the fullness of your breasts.
Surrender yourself. Feel my cock swell in the hollow of your ass. Know my hunger, and await it.
Know that soon, I will enter you, penetrate your body and your heart with my desire.
Stand still.

Tumblr killed my former site, The Other Poems, after eight years of poetry and over 12,000 readers and friends. If you like this poem, please consider reposting it so I can find my friends and followers again. Thank you.
She is perhaps too perfect, too close, and at the same time too far away. Owned but only in the moments she is in need of the particular passion you offer, the only way you know how to love, an odd mix of tender and madness, too much for some, for most perhaps, but all you have.
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.
The thing is, I always start tender and for a few moments, maybe more, you are uncertain how you will bring me pleasure, when, or if the caress will turn into a sharp slap, when, or if your tender pink nipple will find itself clamped, chained or twisted. When, or if, you go from lover to slave and back again.
I have a weakness for you surrendered
Formerly “The Other Poems” with 12,000+ readers and correspondents until without warning Tumblr decided I was no longer worthy of web space.
