The last of the leaves fall

Like a swirling tornado, they fly

How I long to be one of them

Windblown, in the gentle breeze

Hair that’s tangled, in quiet reprise

Thoughts are running, through her mind

She dreams of him, the desirous kind

Longing to have him hold her tight

She wrestles, with the empty night

For he no longer needs her sweet embrace

No appetite for leather, and lace

Has he played her, once again, the fool?

How could she break her only rule?

To never allow him to partake

That which she, would not, forsake

She wonders long, and ponders still

Perhaps it was never against her will

girl-2047939_960_720When Silent Longing

Fills my worried Mind

I Dream of you

Our Love Entwined

I strive to Listen

To Whispers so Faint

Your Voice is my Savior

Your Love my Saint

Your arms offer Solace

In a World so Deranged

Wrapped round my Body

No longer Estranged

From Harrowing Nights

Alone and Afraid

Til you lie here Beside me

My Dreams you’ll Invade

Do I dare to dream, in morning light?

Or toss these thoughts aside?

Promises cast upon the sea

Swept away, with the evening tide

I walk along these rocky shores

In hopes that I may find

A trace of you, a subtle hint

Or something left behind

I stand here, chasing shadows

Found in the water’s swell

They circle close, around my soul

Then wish a fond farewell

Was it you I caught a glimpse of?

Can you see me waiting here?

Yes, I will stand upon this ocean

Til you let me know you’re near

Sensual longing

A desire to fulfill

Her passion, his need
