Beloved

Beloved, you are wanted by this heart that craves
a love like yours that no one else can replace.
Hungry for the quiet bliss that you'll permit
to give this heart that longs for your embrace.
Beloved, that's who you are.
An endearment I will whisper after your name.
A word so simple yet has a world of meanings
but only one name that belongs to my heart.
Beloved, be mine even for a night.
I'll not let you go but wrap you in my arms so tight.
Listen to my heartbeat and hear its tempo
the sound of my love I long to share with you.
Beloved, I will keep my promise
to have patience while I wait
for you to escape the darkness that you are in
and I'll be here to save you when you call my name.

A Virus that Kills

Flushed cheeks and labored breathing,
pulse beating and pounding like crazy.
The noise of the crowd is receding,
hearing nothing but you speaking.
Trembling hands and weakened knees,
what madness is this, can you tell me please?
My mind's thoughts are all quiet and still,
cold as ice like last year's winter's chill.
I am tempted to reach out and kiss
those lips of yours to taste real bliss.
But perhaps this is just a prelude to a dream,
where things may not be what they seem.
Or a deadly virus that is spreading inside me,
and one that I won't do anything but leave it be.

In Dreams

In dreams we give
each other a kiss.
A kiss on lips
hungry for its taste.
In dreams we hold
each other's hands
with a promise tattooed
on each other's heart.
In dreams we love
forever and ever.
Close your eyes dear heart,
let's dream together.

Shape this Heart

Shape this heart with hands that love
mold it with honesty and care.
Banish the clouds of doubt that formed
replace it with trust forevermore.
Heal the wounds sustained in grief
patch them up with kisses sweet.
Open doors barred from within
bring back the light long hidden.
Stem the flow of precious tears that fall
entice a smile on bowed lips.
Hold this heart in hands that care
for it is fragile and can easily disappear.

Permit Me

Permit me if you will
to hold your hands in mine
with our fingers all entwined.

Permit me if you will
to plant chaste kiss on your cheek
for you to remember me by.

Permit me if you will
to hug you with all my might
and whisper a promise to your ear.

Permit me if you will
to love you like I've never loved before,
for you're always in my thoughts, my sweet.

Permit me if you will
to say the words I've longed to utter,
"I will love you dearest for all eternity."

Alcohol

NaPoWriMo here we go! :)

Alcohol

You're like a hard liquor
that burns my throat.
With every sip I take
my body warms up to you.
Your taste is like
a thousand summer suns,
that rips through my senses
intoxicating me.

You're my alcohol,
my addiction every night.
A fine flavored liquor
placed in a bottle
with such delicate delight.

I long for the night
when I can have
a kiss from your lips,
and drink your essence
to warm my body.

I want you to blind my senses
until I stumble to bed,
and dream of your searing kisses,
till the morning comes.
