Burning

Bleh

His lascivious, lust-filled

Gaze is the color of

An oncoming storm.

He loves me.

His breath, hot and heavy,

A whirlwind of carnal need

Leaves me damp.

He loves me not

His hands so rough and ready,

Birth Goosebumps upon my skin,

Like hot water over cool breasts.

He loves me

His lips how they whisper,

Promises like entwined limbs weak,

From long nights.

He loves me not

He chases the shivers running up

The fine curve of my canvas with,

The consuming flame that-

He loves me

Grows with every kiss and caress,

His aching desire against mine,

This night, my morals melt-

He loves me not

Until there is nothing else left but hunger,

The burn of bourbon and slick skin,

Soft and firm

He loves me

Drawn out over eager bodies,

Controlled by lubricious longings,

Stretching and straining-

He loves me not

As we stroke this flame,

So deep inside,

Between us,

Again,

Gasping for air,

And again,

Begging him,

And again,

Moaning,

And again,

Screaming…

                 Gods

Have

Mercy

And I am lost.

What if he loves me?

Truly passionate and sensual. And the "He loves me - He loves me not" lines between the verses added a sense of rhythm to the whole thing. I read over them instead of reading them directly to make them feel more like ghost notes behind the poem. Good write.

Good write , flows easily and sensual.

[Coyote Poetry]

Easy to confuse love with lust. Nice to have both at the same time. I like the flow of emotion and the good question at the end. No weakness in the passionate poem of desire and love? Thank you for the outstanding poetry.

You had a very nice build up and well used alliteration and word choice that left me sitting at the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. This was well detailed as is most of your writing good job I would label this as a success.
