NOT ENOUGH WORDS, AND OTHER POEMS, APRIL 15, 2024

true not enough words

but every one I speak or write

is saying i love you

-----

rest upon me dear

let our bodies become one

in peaceful embrace

-----

forget unseen face

and my touch you never felt

please remember words

----

words are such cold things

when hot passion is desired

but that's all that's left

----

she clicks the icon

gaily giving out for words

hearts not meant for me

-----

secret things you've done

secrets you desire to do

helped draw me to you

-----

eager lips and hands

spurred on by your cries and moans

make love to your skin

-----

know i write for you

whether you notice or not

but i hope you will
