if my words are tears
i have written an ocean
about your absence
-----
seeking your shadows
i'm the sun upon your skin
stretched beneath my heat
-----
never far away
you live in my next poem
still inside my heart
-----
some called it dirty
she just wanted to show love
he understood that
-----
secret once taught me
for best sensual pleasure
make love to the mind first
-----
never knew her name
muse who passed so briefly by
leaving words behind
-----
wonder where she went
she was here just yesterday
then she went away
-----
though she herself lost
much that made her who she was
she remains beautiful
-----
they're not really sins
testing sexuality
in the heat of youth
-----
give yourself to me
put your control into my hands
trust me to please you
-----
awaiting moments
lovers bound by their desires
craving release
