Let there be storms
In the darkness
Let it be me that you cling to
As the thunder echos
Let it be my heart you feel pounding
When lightning ignites the night sky
Let it be my face you look to
As the rain creates a saturating lullaby upon the window pane
Let it be me calming you with loves melody
Let there be storms
Let it be me
Pouring it out
Like gasoline
Onto embers
Discarded reflections
Tossed over
Sorting it all out
Striking the match
Igniting pain
Pieces engulfed
Burning it down
Shattered
Completely hollow
Lost or profound
Crackling grief
The sound of healing
Stoking memories
Smoke billows peace
Breathing relief
Slate wiped clean
Ashes floating
Carrying secrets hidden deep
Therapeutic release
Between
Your world
And
Mine
A bridge
Floating sensuality
Magnetic gravity
Aromatic greed
Leading me
In the middle
I wait
Desire brewing
Imagining
Vivid
Bold
Seductive
Exquisite fantasies
Excitement expanding
Heady euphoria
Requesting release
You, what I need
Sinfully sweet
Gritty beauty
Lofty sensuality
Vivid red
Tinged pink
Smeared graffiti
Across her lips
Succulent texture
Taste of her kiss
Superb quality
Rushing need
Delving deep
Imprinting frenzy
Dirty pretty
Seducing Me

Despite the distance
I hear it
My body pleads
Undeniable control
Delicious and magical quality
How he speaks
Deep tones
Passionate pauses
Drawn out words
So pleasing
Aching to be
An indescribable urgency
Sensual need
To experience
Him
A consuming fantasy
His
For the taking
Exclusively
♥
Deep inside
Vault of secrets
Written only in her mind
Lucious greed
Desire replays
Dimly lit scenes
Supple textures
Amplified pleasures echo
Heady seduction
Exhilarating
She waits
Anticipating
The moment
Reality exceeds imagining
Unlocked fervency
Exquisite need
How is it possible
Intensely deep
Heartbreaking
Beautifully devastating
But why
You were never even mine
I fell in love with the words
Imagined reality
An illusion
Illustrated by you
Embodied by me
Our story isn’t over
To be continued
In another time
Farewell for now
Future dreams
For I know
Someday
You
Will
Be
Mine
Twas the night before Christmas out in the country
Everyone was sleeping Snoring can be heard all through the house
My gun close by if I were to see a mouse
The stockings are hung by the chimney with care
I hope this yummy chocolate candy wasn’t meant to go in there
Out in the hall I made a big clatter
Gathering all the necessities for a little late night platter
It was a long drive here
And a few cappuccinos has me wired up so sleep is not near
Visions of family time, gifts and snacks
While trying to remain focused while driving
Singing and dodging all the deer
Now that I think about it I could really go for a beer
So out on the porch I sit listening to the sounds
Staring at the stars
Freezing my ass off even with all my layered winter gear
Pretty sure I hear a pig, or a coyote, maybe a deer
But it’s totally normal in these types of towns
I wonder if there are any bears
Gasp, OMG the chupacabra could also live here
Well frick
I hope not
If I’m not seen in the morning I probably wandered off in search of the perfect lighting to capture photos of creatures near
The thing about the silence Any and all noise definitely travels around
I’m almost certain the rustle of my late night snacks have already awakened
The 5 people that live in this town
