Soft

Faraway land I met a man
fair his hair and gentle his hand
Connected at a glance, something stirs
a little piece of my heart melts and softens in his eyes

unexpected although invited
I shy away from our first meet
fall back into old patterns and hide away
the pessimist in me, overbearing

still he finds a place to rest in my mind
and pace
all day
all night
my breathing is shallow till i see him
seeking him out in the shadows of the night lights

I feel my limbs shake
letting down some of this armour
letting in some of the warm softness

and he comes
those eyes
that smile
his peaceful disposition
I fall
I let myself fall

this is right
we were to meet
this time, this place
and it's just us, alone, tonight.
I breathe him in deep
and don't want to let go

misted memories
longing for more time
knowing we will find each other again

I fell for the culture
I fell for the land
I let myself fall for this beautiful Argentinean man

softly I whisper
"I don't want this to be just a fantasy land"
and leave a piece of my heart with him
connected in rhythm

Mi Amor

Forever?

I opened my heart
and watched it pour all over the floor
ankle deep
blood rising
he didn't flinch,
didn't move an inch
just smiled.

He's been waiting, predicting, expecting more,
not an ounce of judgement held in his soul
just opened his arms
my heart fell in rhythm with his.

Baited breath,
my anxious voice "forever?"
his reply "forevermore"

This mess

Found new cobwebs in my room today
I looked up today
wiped the haze away

Moonlight fills my space
you came in here, made a mess,
then left, without a trace

No thank you note, no goodbye
just this knife in my back
and pain behind these eyes

Shut down,
cut off the blood supply
we'll need a tourniquet
to quit this mess tonight

Some days be high
others, so low
and all we know is to 'go with the flow'

Dark

Don't follow me down,
it's dark and you can't see
anyway, I like to get a lil lost
screams echoing off the rocks
fade to silence

Perfect dark
void of sound
I could be anywhere
I could be anyone
or disappear completely into this nothingness that has held me too long.

so you wanna get lost
why can I still hear you?

hot heavy breath

That woman in your bedroom
hair, resting upon her shoulders
facing away from you;
you stare up those silken legs to her black lace.

Placing your hands on her arse,
sliding across her ribs and resting your hands as your fingers twist those erect nipples

Mouth on her neck
you can smell her wet
she wants this
you know as she feels for your belt

hot heavy breathing together

Now your clothes are on the floor
as you drop to your knees
turning her to you, circling your tongue around her lips

Throw her on the bed
and resume with your head
between her thighs
you meet eyes and paused as your breathe synchronise

then bring yourself inside her
thrusting deeper
and harder
as she bites your hand,
muffling her screams of ecstasy.
harder deeper
deeper harder
harder
faster fasterfaster!
you make it together

Sweat dripping from your chest to her back
you lie down next to her
connecting behind the gaze
souls latched
always.

no choice

making decisions when the choices are nil
going back to that numb place still
cold on the outside,
inside i'm use to -

told myself this was a good thing
follow that straight and narrow line
tick the boxes
smile, be a lady
don't compromise on what is true to you

now i see it was all just a haze,
i've been lost in here for days.

That quiet sound of the past calls me
pretending that's where i should, or rather be

Frustrated at this place i continually find myself
unable to choose the way
unsure what to say....

this aint no love story today
just another role i chose to play.

Below reality

Swim to the bottom of the ocean,
just to escape the tumultuous seas above.
You can't stay here forever.

So she puts on a 'happy song' and pretends its all ok.
Everything'll be ok.
Everything'll be fine.
If we can just keep our minds occupied with music,
If we can just keep our bodies occupied with dancing..

Faraway dreams,
and crystals on the ocean floor.
