yearning

yearning

A Poem by Emily B
"

an old one that I deleted somehow

"

The hills lay raw and bare.

Unbound breasts heaving

in the gray mist of early morning.

I wish I were the hills

and this car you're driving

was a strong, slow hand

snaking around my own loosed curves.

I want to be crossed by your

barest elemental energies--

moved by passion’s own embrace.

I want to stretch and reach the sky

and stretch and touch the dirt

and feel each resonant-twinge in between.

I want to be filled with the light

and the heat of a new day--

just as the valley

after the fog is burned away.

I want to feel the vibrations of thunder

deep in the middle of me

 

rumbling of something resembling change

 again and again and again

 

until the light is extinguished.

 

Then I will breathe deep and slow

 

breasts heaving raw and bare

 

in the gray mist of a hillnight.

What a great metaphor for passion and love...there is something about the exhilaration of speed that is so very closely related to the emotions found in the throws of passion.

Then I will breathe deep and slow
breasts heaving raw and bare
in the gray mist of a hillnight. -- love these lines...the word "hillnight" is so beautiful.

You write with raw emotion, and for that I absolutely can relate to your work on an emotional level. Beautifully done...

ah the images portrayed here..."after the fog is burned away.

I want to feel the vibrations of thunder

deep in the middle of me


rumbling of something resembling change

again and again and again


until the light is extinguished.


Then I will breathe deep and slow


breasts heaving raw and bare


in the gray mist of a hillnight."

well penned ..emotions to the forefront at the ending..

beautiful

i wanna sex the planet now ha.

seriously though

very passionate
i love seeing our planet described in this way
i love seeing someone appreciate our home enough to write something like this
i love that lovers like you exist.

i swear reading this is how i feel when im laid out on a hillside at night letting the earth speak through my veins... it's beautiful

i see no need for change to this
or criticism and i rarely criticize at all [every voice is different ya know]
