Dance

Dance My sweat, but drenched in your energy Like adrenaline to my heart Pounding - "lub dub" Shut my eyes, close my ears "Lub dub" I move to it - your rhythm That you feed me Still hungry for more of you *Eyes open* Flashes of light - presents from the strobe Glisten and unwrap our wet bodies You,...

Explore

The curves and contours of my body Illuminated by the light of your blazing eyes, The shadows and valleys I wish you would explore... The mysteries of the unknown draw you in.

Transformation

I envision a girl walking the sidewalk, conscious of every step in her womanly heels, freshly purchased with the promise of maturity and sophistication - why invest in feelings based on false height, I think to myself... And as she progresses through time, metered by each click of her shoes, she... Sign in to see full entry.

The Haunting

How I remember those eyes Glazed with the fresh dew of new love Staring innocently into my own No words were necessary And yet you spoke them Like echoes they came to what was already understood Still, I reveled in your verbal throes Hearts colliding in mutual emotion The world was perfect in that...

Drive

It was a nice drive. No rain, just some residual puddles, creating a sprinkle on my windshield as I followed the car ahead. I didn't turn on my wipers, instead I just watched the droplets merge and slither down the glass, the streams avoiding some invisible barrier, as they turned and carved their...
