I want to capture your flame

A single match, is all I require

Two bodies, entwined, no shame

Each one filling, the other’s desire

Heat, igniting the human form

Come closer, belong only, to me

A fury, the sensation, so warm

How perfect, two beings can be

I want to capture your flame

Where together, we will conspire

To forever be one, in the same

Two hearts set ablaze, one fire

Dare I? ~ #freeverse #nightmares

Sleep escapes me

 

Dare I close my eyes?

 

Only to fade into the darkness, that
Suffocates my soul, terrorizes my mind
Thrashes against my being, until I
No longer fight it, but welcome it
Draw it further into my heart, let it
Rip me apart, tear at me, and I
Locked in a cocoon of sweat, succumb
To the sweetness that is the night
The passion and desire of the dark
Knowing, eventually, I will awaken…

 

I will, won’t I?

Ashes Breathe the Fire of Life
Rising from Smoldering Flames
Frenzied and Fevered
She Ignites a Spark
Captivating her Claim

Unearthly Desires Swirl from within
Kindling a Blaze, Incandescent
Charred and Blackened
She Leaves a Mark
Her Fiery Heart, Incessant

Inexpressible Notions ~ #poetry #FebruaryWriting

In my strongest words

I could not explain

The desire I felt

When you were not here

The longing, for your touch

Your skin pressed against me

Locked together, unbreakable

You were the reason, my breath

Yet, I could not describe it

That overwhelming feeling

That emptiness inside

When you were far away

And I searched for the answers

Judged, by my own self doubt

My only conviction, is that I

Was guilty of loving only you

He left before the morning light

His scent, lingered, in the air

She wrapped herself around it

To ease the chill, her body, bare

Private thoughts invaded

Her mind was set on fire

He was all she wanted near

He was her one desire

Yet, sitting alone, she pondered

Was her love for him misled?

Perhaps, she would just have to settle

For memories of him, in her bed
