NO DOUBT

On a cold and nasty February day
The best place to be and the right things to say

Is in the arms of your woman professing your love
As you realize she’s an angel sent from above

Encourage and praise the gifts that she brings
While she snuggles and cuddles you with silken wings

Understand that the best part of who you are
Is completely due to her raising the bar

As each of know this fact without doubt
That because of her I cast my demons out

The women we love complete us as men
There’s no use denying life’s better with them

If you lover her,,,Let her go!

 

 I held my love, she pulls away

I sense she has a heart to stray

Ill try my best to keep her near

Now pray on bended knee she’ll stay

The love we share and hold so dear
has prevailed year after year

we’ve loved in many thousand ports

Our bond is broken we shed a tear

This divergence has me out of sorts
I shout from roofs and plead in courts
for my sweet dream to stay by me
So my heart will not bleed in quarts

There seems be another she

That calls her back so she can see

A life gone by comes back once more

Divides our grasp now there’s no WE

Her loneliness has a certain lure

A bittersweet she can’t ignore

I feel I’ve lost my soul at last

My sweetness walks right out the door

The spell of solitudes been cast

The thing I cherish is in the past

My life is hollow not worth the pain

The breath I take may be my last

No, not now, I’ll love again

This mortal wound will not sustain

Life shall go on I will prevail

I emerge much stronger from the pain

Should she be happy with a heart so pale

My choice to set her free to sail

Lets me move on to other ports

As I might find my Holy Grail.

I Was There

I WAS THERE!

Out of nowhere her silhouette filled my doorway

Moonlight glowing warm behind her

Twinkled in the beads of her dripping passion

Draped in nothing but attitude

Despair & rage sparked from the window of her soul

Before the next sun, my dreams would pale in comparison to the night

Not I did she crave, but relief from the storm of her disappointment

Place and time held no concern

Unfulfilled desire, relentless urge ignored

I alone stood victim to the winds of change she craved

I alone need fill her void and send waves of infinite glory through her very being

Undeserving of the pleasure awaiting, fear filled my core

Lest I disappoint this raven haired siren,

Never shall I know true connection of celestial touch

Time stood still as destiny drew near my flesh

Years have passed while my longing surged

The hour is nigh I shall reap the rewards of painful eternity

The balmy heat of urban summer caused our grasps to slip and slide

Moisture mounts and limbs entwine, Then all at once, I was inside

The grip my love wrapped upon me, left me crying out for joy

Never had I known love so angry, Not his aging lonely boy

With my resolve as thick and firm, as time has ever shown

Her passion burned for another, long since left her alone

This lust and  burning passion for him, taken by me with abandoned pride

Judgment caused my nerve to swell to sizes that would prolong the ride

Guilt would not find room today, but the morrow will bring pain

For now I will collect my due, though it belongs to another

No Matter,  I live to serve,

Faceless, nameless, used

Victim, I think not.

My door is always open.
