Hands, beginning pleasure
Let our fingers intertwine
Bodies pressed together
Sets the mood, now quite sublime
Momentum grows, much quicker
Sparks are flying, never shy
With bodies, ever slicker
Swells of rapture, quietly sigh

Memoirs penned, and leather bound
Knowledge held, without a sound
Changed the way she lived her life
Pages filled with angst and strife
She journeyed far, across the seas
Away from those, she’d never please
And wrote it down, to this, she’d tend
Every day, knowing, it could be the end
Of writing, as she knew the pages to be
Twas this, her milestone, that set her free

Pushed upon, punched, beaten
Holes leave marks upon my soul
I keep standing, though weakened
But never again am I whole
Lean upon me, ever so gently
I can hold you up, I’m strong
I try so hard, but consequently
You always find me wrong
Inside this house, the walls
Keep secrets from the rest
Broken apart, the pieces fall
Tales never spoken, never confessed
Author’s Note: On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men. (https://ncadv.org/statistics)

She starts with a single thread
Carefully, weaving her loom
Intricate lines connected with ease
For those dropping by, certain doom
Several come calling, about her
None too quickly, do they escape
Caught in the strands of the webbing
She has carefully spun and draped
She has trapped so many before them
Even more know her clutches too well
A spider will always outfox her prey
When she captures them, under her spell

Like fireworks, we ignite the skies
With hopes and dreams, and how’s and why’s
As radiant lights, we guide our hearts
Through thoughts and words, we must impart
Scattering about, with a certain flair
Watching, waiting, not knowing where
Eventually falling, back to the ground
Messages sent, are quite profound
With a thundering boom, we get your attention
Oh, the OOHs and AAHs, did I forget to mention?
That fireworks are a lot like you and I
Trying hard not to fizzle, when they die
June Writing Prompt – And then we all fizzled – Day 10/30
