Discovery

Anticipating success,
I’d bring you here,
Sit you down,
Then ask you to relax.
Calmly,
I’d teach,
Your hand,
How to be,
Near me.
Inhaling,
Slowly guiding,
Finger tips,
Towards the place,
I’ve needed,
You to respond to,
And grown tired of,
Waiting for…
Exhaling,
At your touch,
As your fingers,
Slowly weave,
With mine.
Sighing,
Allowing you,
To explore,
My warmth,
By finally,
Holding hands.

Flame

I’ve been lookin’ for you
Don’t blame me for lookin’ here

Flames flicker, attacking sensibilities
Dancing around me, yet settling fears
Like staring into your eyes, almost

I’ve been lookin’ for you
Don’t blame me for lookin’ here

Heat surrounding, starting in my chest
Found now below, urging me to let go
Like the touch of your hands, almost

I’ve been lookin’ for you
Don’t blame me for lookin’ here

Glowing ashes, proof of stability
Mesmerized desire, devoted endings
Like your heart admitting love, almost

I’ve been lookin’ for you
Don’t blame me for lookin’ here
