Love

[Gabryal]

i sigh as the questions come

rapid-fire, as they always do

why do i feel this way, they

ask - why do i feel this need

 

to be what i am?

to swallow the fears even i have?

i may be something that they

cannot understand, but still

 

i am

a girl, a mother, a woman with

a heart, a soul that years

needing to be fed and fulfilled

 

with savage and gentle touch

calmed and tamed and set free in

one whispered word, one command

empowering and enslaving

 

my words fall on deaf ears,

they cannot hear me, they do

not understand, and don't want to.

what do they fear?

 

blindfolded, gagged and bound

held tight by the strictures of

stereotype, of hype and fiction,

i cannot say what it is that they

 

see, when they see me, if they

can at all without the eyes

that You employ, looking more

deeply, molding and shaping

 

refinement of what You see as

almost perfection, flawed

but wonderful, something to hold

to own, to cherish.

 

so i breathe deeply and shrug

off their ignorance, small pity

at the things they will never

know, in their small world.

 

A response from eshva, slave to Gabryal, to Dezdimona's beautiful work Love: Chronicles of Sticks

"I love you Dezi" from eshva, relayed by Gabryal.

@ gabryal.You make my poetry come to life for many reasons, a true man of many talents. Thank you for the beautiful response

 

@ Eshva:Eshva , mo ibigin , mo willingness , mo pagkakaibigan , mo malaman sino ka ay , gawin ka lahat ang laling marami desireable sa ako!

Methinks Dezi is getting more poets outta the closet alas no talent with words have I (apart rom mangaling them). Keep the Beauty and eroticism coming and lighten the world some more. :biggrin:

thank you, you say much of meaning in few words. Not all poetry is rhyme and form.Words spoken from the heart mean oh,so much more! :smile:

[Maharg67]

Dezi, you speak truth and your words are stil wonderful.

 

Zen poetry (or one of its influences) are short statements, each a line that add up as in

 

The heart expressed truly

The heart is opened just a little more

Some weight is gone

One can move more freely now!

 

I wrote it on the spot so I hope you enjoyed it.

very cool *huge grin*

To quote the Great Bard "more, more".

The dinner was

A gourmet’s delight,

With romantic music,

Low and flickering

Candle light

 

Your Armani suit

My Valvo dress,

Walking arm in

Arm,

You give one

Breast a slight

Caress

 

I gaze into

Your eyes of

Blue,

I smile that

Smile that’s a

Beckoning clue.

 

 

We stop and

We kiss,

And kiss once

Again.

 

 

Your powerful arms,

Crush me to

Your body once

again

 

 

My fingers run

Through your hair

Of jet black,

Your increased pressure

On the small

Of my back

 

We walk a

Ways,

And stop yet

Again,

The gleam in

My eyes asks

A single question

When?

 

The parting of

Lips,

A small moan

I release,

The night is

Quiet and so

Empty,

Our little world

Is at peace.

 

The kisses become

Eager,

And hands start

To roam,

A gasp as

Your fingers find

A warm and

Moist home

 

Words of endearment

A hardness as

Of bone,

Gentle images in

Your mind,

Tis the end

Of my poem!

I'm SO glad I had a few spare moments to read and take in this smorgasbord of romantic delights! These are true flights of sensual fantasy, a feast of words and images. Thank you for sharing such tender, yet powerful works.

 

The title alone, is so cool and a wonderful thread linking all these chains of emotion together. Excellent job my lady! Your suitors have also spoken poignantly! Just an awesome collection of pieces!
