Only You

Daydream

 

Through the café door

I sway

Hoping the fates

Will bring you

My way

At the window

I sit

Daydreaming

Lost in the bustle

Hurried strangers passing by

Thoughts of you

Dance

Through my mind

While I gently caress

My bare thigh

Wherever you are

Are you thinking of me

My fingertips

Tracing soft circles

On your heated flesh

My lips

Pressed against

The soft skin

Of your neck

Trailing kisses

Lightly brushing

Against your mouth

Tongue dipping in

Tasting you

Savouring

The closeness

My body

Wrapped round you

Feeling your heart

Beat

In perfect harmony

With mine

A bell chimes

Startled

Head swivels to look

At the opening door

Hopeful

Despondent

It's not you

Never is

Just a lingering

Daydream

Shine

I am a girl
Though I may stumble
My soul will not crumble
I am fragile
I am vulnerable
I am strong
I am resilient
My spirit will continue to shine
Ever brilliant
This pain will not dim
The light glowing within
No matter how deep
The shit
Piled at my feet
I will not let darkness set in
I will not be swallowed
By the dirt
I will not be blinded
By the hurt
I will fight
With all of my might
To banish the darkness
Far from sight
Always choosing laughter
Happiness over spite

Torn

I'm just a girl

I prance and I dance

I skip and I play

Even though I find myself

Caught in the fray

I wink and I smile

All the while I beguile

True feelings are not as they may

I'm strong and I'm tough

And I can deal with the rough

But inside lies a soft tender heart

So easy to pierce

With sharp words so fierce

From your tongue

Venom shoots like a dart

Slowly poisoning the girl

You once promised the world

But instead you left broken

Torn apart

Secrets

Blue

Entranced in the depths

Of a turquoise blue sea

Every time those eyes

Seductively gaze upon me

 

A crystal clear serenity

Washes over my flesh

Warm waves of desire

Stealing my breath

 

As the moon pulls the tide

Natural forces so intense

I'm drawn to your side

Ever weakening my defense

 

Swimming in those eyes

Currents of passion so strong

I can try to tread against them

...But not for very long
