Beyond the River

I am the voice of a woman

Murmuring  words of dignity

Within the clamor of sirens

Who sing the same sad songs

In a sea of duplicity

So wounded by offenses

These  waters run blood red

I bring untainted tears

To wash away the sorrows

Floating to my soul

To one so beautiful

Beyond the river

I Want to Feel

I want to feel your energy surge
as you move near to me, and all
the thunder in my heart pounding
out such violent sparks, as you pull
me by the chin, and softly beg me
once again to love you.

I want to feel your trembling hands
caress unspoken dark commands
that bring me to a point of bliss, at
which I fall into an abyss of surrender.

I want to feel the ecstasy of knowing
you’re inside of me, as if we two could
possibly be one. Running as a raging
stream, we rise and fall through all
my dreams of passion.

I want to feel your sated kiss, salty-
sweet, the one I’ve missed. A warm
and tender rhapsody, that fills the
height and breadth of me completely.

Proceed

 

Establish one law

The act of humanity

Ascertain world peace
