Such Things

When lips move . . .

She says such things to me . . .
My disbelieving ears wrestle
with her words . . .

She whispers my gentle man,
my handsome man, your caring touch,
your lovely hips . . .

My hesitant eyes watch her lips move . . .
my questioning lips moving softly to hers,
to touch her words, to feel their vibration,
to devour their meaning . . .

Bound I am now by her words,
she says such things.

Aren't we all drawn to compliments? Does that indeed attract us to that person more? Do we believe them? Do we trust them? Weather we know them to be true or not I think we definitely want to hear .......such things.
I enjoyed reading this very much. It made me think about my own ego and who may be boosting it.

She could be calling you into the heavens, or, maybe to the sea, a special world, for sure. Seems that, in creating this poem, you're turning the tables, calling her in response to her whispers. If that's the case, it's you who's a merman luring your love into your arms, drifting her words back and forth words through space!

This has an ethereal, dreamy, adoring veil all around it. Sigh-making words .. and seems very personal. 'Bound I am now by her words, ~ she says such things. '

very passionate my friend. your words paint a sensual picture that is tasteful and very powerful.

it's funny how people say things because 'that's what people say.' everyone knows deep inside there may be a grain of untruth, but still we stay and are forced to live in denial without admitting it to ourselves. clever poem.

hmm aren't we susceptible for such an declaration of love?
wonderfully soft poem.. ... love that works behind the momentuous deeds...
understands the secret of creative love.. making more and more of it.

It's the language of love, the art of seduction at its purest form....and how wonderful to see you post again! I loved this!


My best,
