I Loved You Quietly

Like a soft breeze,barely there but seenin the tender dance of tall trees,swaying gently.We never got caught upin the terribly fierce winds—preoccupied with the factthat my body was soaking wetfrom the previous storm.We were sitting, waitingfor the wave of rain to pass.And I was still standing.We were both standing,watching the sway of the trees.

An Ode to Lost Possibilities

Never will it be us on a distant island,sprawled out across the white sands,thirsty for the hand’s eager reach,while waves crash against the salty beach.Never will it be us sipping drinks in a dive bar,stealing glances, linked arm in arm,swapping kisses in the soft moonlight,staying up all hours of the night.Never will we be lovers…

Remember When

I want to remember you like this.I want to remember us like this.In the years ahead, when you’ll be across the roomand I’ll barely rise from the bed,I want to remember what it felt likewhen we were giddy in love.I want to remember the feeling of our hearts—with every chance we’d get—to smile and get…

Gray Man

She holds her tongue for a gray man with a smoking jacket that whispers ‘I love you’s’. She holds her tongue for crumbs on countertops, hairs on bathroom sinks, unwashed hands, and mornings with unbrushed teeth. She holds onto passionate kisses and long embraces under sheets that heat up to a thousand degrees. She presses…

Tangled Tenderness

HE BRUSHES MY HAIR AND I BEGIN TO CRYbecause it’s like what you see in the movies:magnetic couples solidified over time,still in their prime of nurturing each other,still needing one another,still wanting to be there after the kids have gone,still holding on for the rest of the ride. In his simple act I am truly…

Beneath the Noise

days begin in a soft sunlit haze drifting between caresses and kisses alarms sound demanding attention focus shifts to the work of morning meetings while the dog begs for his daily routine two hands aren’t enough to hold, or to juggle the noise floats above and around nothing penetrates the barrier the only thing that…

Give Me Back My Time

Once upon a time all I had was time, all we had was time, time to wait for our time, It was declared that our time will come. Perhaps in a few years, then suddenly it was here.All the time before became a distant memory. All we had in front of us was our time.…

Whisper In My Ear [with audio]

Your words whisper in my ear. Your voice does things to me that haven’t been felt in years. My heart races,My insides quicken—I want to hear more. I listen when I’m alone to be safe from disturbance.I listen while at work in hopes that no one notices the reaction your whisper creates. I listen before…

Greedy Disaster

I pull in closer, place my hand upon his lips caress each other, breathing in exploring our hearts for more but a darkness seeps in and my thoughts turn His arms wrap ’round me tightly,a feeling I’ve craved, to be adored.Everything I’ve wanted is right here but the road ahead transports me back in time.…

Let Me Dream

Let not this fantasy be shattered by reality. Let me stay in the bliss of passionate kisses, Where tenderness sends shivers down my neck. I’d rather not argue over the daily banality, Whose turn it is to mind the children While the other is out for the night. I’d rather stay in a trance of…
