Lust

Lust

A Poem by Julie McCarthy (juliespenhere)
"

Wrote this upon finishing coffee quickly this Morning

"
Come hither
Don’t dither

Don’t tarry
Nor tether or wither

My skin is awaiting your
Torrid hard touch
Hurry now
No haste
Will do me much

I will lie with you now
Till the sun
Takes its first wake

And all that we
Do this dark night
With no moon
To shine on our
Lusty flesh

Those secrets
Will stay safe
in the dark

Till we take our
Last final breaths
Upon our
Spirits descent

And all that we
Did will be
In the beautiful
Light
No hiding
No secrets
No guilt or shame

Just light love and
An eternal love flame

A pardner who would turn this ...invite? down has no soul! Fiction or not - this IS a blueprint of heat and heart...

So very well done...

That reads like a rehearsal for a very HAPPY CHRISTMAS, Julie. Saves money on mistletoe too!

Wishing you and happy new year, too!

No pity needed xx 😘
I do agree dear Julie.
"And all that we
Did will be
In the beautiful
Light
No hiding
No secrets
No guilt or shame"
The above lines are needed. When we seek pleasure. We must be brave and willing. Thank you dear friend for sharing the amazing poetry. I did enjoy.

Thanks very much John hope you well too
it was good stuff. sex shouldnt be something we are ashamed of. it is something pure and exalting. i agree with this sentiment expressed here. and the final couplet sums it up nicely.

Thanks for your honest review
Julie,
Sex is such a deep connection that it ALWAYS comes with a bond and that partner will forever have a part of us in them. Ten years after a one-night stand and the connection raises its head to smile or frown... what I don't understand why society always gives it such a negative review... It's nasty or dirty or bad or wrong... don't get it... two consenting adults enjoying the intimacy and close connection of body and mind with no strings... except the bond, no escape from that. In my traditional family, they say it cheapens the act, I say only if you think that way...

Thanks for your review and insight
Thanks
Sensual, errotic, and as the title says lustful. A great title for the most basic of human drives condemned by so many but experienced by all. Lovely poem

It's sometimes said, that love can be eternal; as referenced here. Like loving moths, drawn to nearby lights; the lovers in this write seems to know their own passionate harmony. The juxtaposition of "hurry now" beside "no haste", reminded me of the conflicting tension between wanting that ultimate passionate experience - and some inner voice urging caution (for whatever reason that might happen to be). From how it's described, the woman wants to be enjoying herself with that lover for hours; openly and brazenly without shame or secrets. Indeed, the references are meant to be about that openness; rather than being in the literal light. And, the very opposite scenario, to a situation in which a couple are having a "quick shag"; in a dingy corner somewhere (and saddled with shame about it). Thanks for sharing. I accept "read requests" too, on this site.
