Just Once More

Just Once More

Let me kiss you, just once more.
Let my tongue travel across your skin.
Let our bodies tangle together
In a heated mass of passionate love.
Let me worship and adore you.
Let me feel you in and out.
Let me discover and renew you.
Let me make you writhe and tremble.
Let me cradle you to me after.
Fall asleep inside my arms.
Let us mingle unaware.
We can leave the world behind once more.
Escape with me, and never return.
Bathe in the beads of love on our skin.
I beg, and yet I know you cannot allow it ever again.
For one more night of adoration
Would not quench my soul of insatiable thirst.
Dream with me of a place where we can love,
And love on for all eternity.

One Special Night

One Special Night

Your lips stole my breath away.
Your kiss made my soul cry with joy.
The touch of your skin against mine made me tremble.
The passion and love in your spirit made my heart dance.
The warmth of your arms brought me comfort.
Your trust made me love myself.
And now, with a vacancy where that spark would glow in your eyes,
My soul wilts.
The distance of a few feet is marked by a new wall between us,
The longing to bring it down again makes my body writhe.
But I cannot make your heart love as mine does.
We smile. We embrace. We blink.
We go on.
Somehow, we go on, and I know my heart will never change.
My soul lies in wait for you, alone;
Alone, but cherishing and always reliving one special night.
For one night, I was loved.

Inspiration

This is why the artist struggles;
To make every unsuccessful attempt into artistic triumph.
This is how we turn this life around.
This is how we rock the world.
Give me some lemons,
I’ll make the best lemonade to ever quench your mouth of lies.

Look at us with doubt and shame
So we can turn it into fame.
Give us a love that’s unrequited
So I can write a poem just to spite it.

I can make rhymes about a life filled with woe.
I can play a melody that thunders to drown out the anger.
Give us all that we deserve.
We’ll put the credit where it’s due.

All you dream haters and hope shooters bread another Shakespeare
To make a theatre out of your multi-million dollar establishment.
You wanna take away a neighborhood?
We’ll give it back with a house of catharsis.

We’re not down and out, we are in a world of muses.
You’re just too blind to see how incredible our world is.
We are united. We understand.
We sweat and bleed to tell the truth.

You can’t stand us, but you love us too.
You want to be us, brave and fighting for the dream.
In the meantime, keep up the good work.
I’d like to thank you again for your generous contributions.
Sincerely, the artist you dismissed.

Sight - the beauty of your face
Sound - my heart pounds
Taste - the memory of a perfect kiss
Hear - the sweetest whisper of love in my ear
Smell - the perfume of your hair
Touch - that soft skin I love so much

Win or lose
This is what I choose
My sixth sense
The essence of you
