You Get Under My Skin

I feel your desire
and your beguiling emotions
they’re so longingly fluid
and sink so deep

With one swift touch
of your agile fingers
sending me powerful vibes
without need of a speech

Under my delicate skin
is where you oft get
a beat from my heart
that throbs inside your head

There to possess
and no one else dare
cross the line that's off limits
trespassers take care

Savoring each and every minute
of this time in our lives
as sands through the hour glass
fall like stars from night skies

Our magic is our madness
we’re spellbound to believe
that our bond is unbreakable
and this is the way it should be

Together we’ll grow closer
in a world wherein we too
reach beyond our imaginations
and work to make sure
all our dreams do come true

I'm Not Giving You a Broom!

I waited for you
To make the first move
You were in charge
And did what you do

Looking in my glass house
You saw what you see
I was vulnerable
So you took advantage of me

In the first petition we faux wed
And you created my future course
But, I’ve finally had enough of your scam
Now it’s time for us to faux divorce

You were the one with the masterful plan
And what I really needed didn’t matter
All you wanted was to make your play
So you’d get whatever you were after

Simultaneously,
You put me in the driver’s seat
And handed over the keys
While you got in on the passenger's side
And feigned giving the control to me

Being unlicensed and trusting you
I then took hold of the wheel
Not knowing you were just using me
To get my signature on your lucrative deal

The one where I became an indentured servant
So others could decide my fate
But, eventually I exposed your treachery
And since then I’ve gotten nothing but hate

After once upon a time
Smiling sweetly in my face
So handsome, and oh so grand
YOU, the TOP GUN
The BIG MAN with a plan
Didn’t want to hang your head in disgrace

Lately
You’ve been getting a wee bit upset
And still doing whatever it is you still do
While I’ve made plans to quicken your step
By encouraging you to make your next move

Because you need votes and connections
From one to the other end of the State
Who will enjoy sitting down at your table
Eating your food from off of your plate
And
Together you’ll make merry and laugh
At the joke you made, oh yeah, that’s “me”
Determined to hang on until the end
And to never allow me to go free

As you bask in your hay days
And all the money you made
You’re happy with the respect you achieved
At my expense and others like me too
While we paid your debts
And still want answers from you

But, you underestimate us
And my willingness to strive
When you left me with nothing to lose
After you lied
And cheapened my pride

And now you’re getting angrier
The more doggedly I share
Me, the little mouse
Fat cats no longer scare

BUT,

DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT I CARE?

Why don’t you put your… oops,
OUR money
Where your mouth is
Let’s finally meet together in the courtroom
I’m sure your posse will be there
And the new Judge can decide
Preponderance
Evidentiary documents
And sworn testimony too

Then I’ll show my hand
Politely address you as “Sir”
And mop the floor up with you!!!

Oh, that’s right, I almost forgot
You prefer that we mediate without proof
In a private room where no one can see
So all your bad faith acts will stay buried in history

But I’m not giving you the broom that you need
So you can sweep me
And what you’ve done to everyone
Quietly
Under the rug

Especially since your new plan
Is to avoid a public scandal
In your campaign to be elected his Honor

The reigning JUDGE!!!

Do You Want To Punish Me?

You
Always
Knew
What I wanted
To...
Experience
To...
Know

Down
Deep
I felt your pull
Pushing me forward
As my ravenous instinct
Led me along the path
I chose
To exactly when...
And to where...

Until...

I couldn’t let go!!!

From
The very first moment
You heard my mouth
Sometimes hushed
Other times
Loud

You
Engaged my innocence
Willingness
Wanton desires
To live on the edge

You
Surrounded me
But
With no limits
No boundaries
Seeing how far I’d go
And to what depth

You
Are
Always
Listening...
Watching...
Plotting...
Planning...

What’s next?

Vicariously
We thrive
On
You
And
Me

We
Are
Each others
Flight of fancy

We
See
With our hearts
What our minds try to hide

Do you still find me
Exciting...
Challenging...
Or
Do you just want to punish me

For wanting my dreams to become reality?

Is the Feeling Mutual?

You feign to be an advantage
In my hands, you think I’ll misuse
Yet, none of my feminine charms
Have any influence on, or over you

Our dalliance, collectively
Even apart brings us close
What is it about our time together
That entertains us the most

Your eyes watch my movements
Your mind pierces my soul
Our separate worlds heighten our experience
Leaving you hungry for control

We lust for each moment
Our envious feelings create
As our bond grows even tighter
It, we are powerless to break

You, in your willful silence
Test my patience once more
As you humble my resistance
I crave your thoughts like before

Your privy knowledge stirs my emotions
Your hand writing each line
Your stealth fingers initiate action
Probing the sensitivity of my mind

I see you from a distance
I feel your presence so near
If I had my way
You’d be whispering only in my ear

I need you to bear hug hold me
I need your fire deep inside
I need your erection’s attention
I need to see your face with my eyes

I need to crumble exhausted
I need to quiver at your touch
I need to know that you want me
I just need you so much

If my need makes you feel captive
Is it a prison of your choice?
Can you endure a life sentence?
Will we two be of one voice?

Is our story written in the universe?
Is it going to be told in history?
Will it reflect our core values?
Will it show you too needed me?

Plead for Relief

Fear
Led me
D
O
W
N
A long road
Filled with danger

Alone
I relied on the word
Of a
Stranger

Stupid is
What stupid does

Now I
“PLEAD”
So
I can just
Wake up

Nightmares
Fantasies
False hopes
Dreams

Our reality
Is seldom
What
We wish it to be

Punishment
They say
Should fit the crime

Even when innocent
In the wrong place
At the wrong time

Factory defects
Can be replaced
With new
Character flaws
Are sometimes
Overlooked
too

But
In this world
Where the strongest
Often thrive
Weakness
Can be exploited
So the status quo
Survives

Majority
vs.
Minority

All have stakes
In this game

On life
We bet all we have
Just to play

Knowing the risks
That it takes to win
If we lose at first
We ante up
And spin the wheel again

If fortune
Is meant to be ours
At last
Its security
Helps heal the wounds
Of the past

But
If at the end of the rainbow
There’s no gold in the pot
We do what we can
To make the best of our lot

We don’t depend
Only on

Wins
vs.
Loss

We pray for
“RELIEF”
And put our trust
In
GOD

For with Him
All things are possible
To achieve

And with faith
He’ll answer
If we believe

It may not be
What we want to hear

But His will
Will be done

And of this
We need not
Fear

Our First Day of Summer

It’s the first day of summer

“2013”

What is this season
Going to open
For me

With each step taken
To opportunities next door
Ideas spring into action
Like never before

E.n.c.h.a.n.t.e.d

Lives
Minds
Over time
Work

Absorbed energy
Poetic justice
Victory
Art words

We might be surprised
How facts and friction
Unite
As the pull of our spirits
Brings us even closer
Tonight

Mountains
Or
Molehills
Vast oceans
Deep glens
Nothing
Is insurmountable
When accompanied
By good friends

Each
Have many talents
We all crave
To explore
Even on vacation
We’re hungry
To score

Money
Is our meal ticket
Nobody gets lunch for free
Regardless to how we chew it
We’ve all got to eat

So
Love
Rides in the backseat
As we take turns
With this drive
And soon
We’ll reach our objectives
Keeping mystery and romance
Alive

What Does It Feel Like?

What does it feel like
To be madly “in-love”
To really deeply “trust”

An adrenaline rush?

What does it feel like
To break all the rules
To truly act the fool

Is it cool?

What does it feel like
To give confidences away
To seriously get betrayed

Is that being “played”?

What does it feel like
To be someone’s closest friend
To be real or just pretend

Do the means justify the end?

Once getting sized up
The skinny can be tough
Then again there’s always ‘LOVE’

Isn’t that enough?

What Went Wrong?

YES
I WANTED EVERYTHING
YOU SHOWED ME…

And
I BELIEVED IT
Was within my {{{grasp}}}

My
“PERMANENT TOTAL SUBMISSION”
Is what you demanded

While
I did EVERYTHING
You “OFFICIALLY” asked

At first…

You found me
Interesting
To your liking
Overlooking what was wrong
Focusing instead
On what you could make right
Then
You encountered my nature
And
You instinctively knew…
WE…
…would eventually FIGHT

Realistically
There was “no way around it”
When our ‘risk vs. benefit battle’ finally began
Therefore
No one could have predicted the fallout
From the chemical dependent
Part of the plan

Life has its own way to unfold
And everybody knows
We can’t… Push, Pull, or Shove
A square peg into a round hole

Equally
We’re all part of the hunt…

For SECURITY

Or
We’re along for the ride

So
When choosing travel partners
To share in the journey
We do so carefully
Or pay an ultimate price

Infatuation
And
Love
Can weaken our defenses
Physical attractions
And
Passions
Can be hard to control
But
If
Unhealthy obsessions
Become part of these equations
Unpredictable inclinations
Can unwittingly take hold

So
Knowing
What to hold on too
And better yet
When to let go
There’s not much
Standing in the way of progress
Not even between us
If we move slow

I could see
What you were up too
When you first addressed me
Like no other before
And
Since our beginning
There’s been a few endings
But all things considered

NOW I WANT MORE!!!

A History Lesson

I’ve known you like, since forever
After you came waltzing into my life
But we’ve been out of step for a time
And it’s caused us both some serious strife

Although I’ve always felt your hand on my neck
As you controlled life’s flow around me
While you were determined to keep me in line
I struggled ever harder to break free

This is our very last dance, and you know it
When the music stops this time, I’ll be gone
And you’ll never realize what could have been
Because… you boastfully did me so wrong

You’ve made me suffer for being a disappointment to you
But the hard lessons gave my will strength to survive
If there’s only one memory I’ll take away with me
It’s that your pride made me pay the ultimate price

But even if nobody dares to be my friend
I’m still alone, and there’s no one who cares
Your influence won’t be the guiding factor anymore
And I’ll be damned if I have to sneak out the back stairs

After all these years that I’ve had to steadily focus
While trying to learn all the new steps by myself
More often then not I realized the depth of my weaknesses
That brought me no shame in reaching out to ask for help

You see, once upon a time I only followed your lead
As you stepped on my toes around the floor
Twirling me in circles you dizzied my view
Until I could no longer find my way to the exit door

But, just because you have lots of advantages
And what little I have is difficult to understand
Doesn’t automatically entitle you to even more
If walking on top of vulnerable people is your plan

So, always think before you aspire to stand even higher
As a member of your class works toward an honorary degree
Because it’s the teacher’s place to set the pace in the rat race
While student educational blunders won't be remembered by history

Whisper To Me, Please

Soft
Gentle breeze
Whisper his name to me
~
Please
~
Tell me when
And tell me where
He’ll beckon to set my heart free
~
Talk to me
Of this hero
Who will dare the winds of time
A man that’s brave
True
And fair
Who will look beyond the rhyme
~
Allow me to know his strength
Unveiling to me his deeds
Hold nothing back
As you open my eyes
And help me to meet my needs
~
As the storms of life approach
And impending doom draws near
Surround me with your breath of fresh air
Making my direction clear
~
Then I will know the earth’s secrets
The unseen lay before me to view
And I will follow my destiny
As revealed to my soul
By you

Victory!

We're close friends
That's what we're meant to be
When people look at us
A team is what they see
United together
We're difficult to beat
With all for one
And one for all
We strive toward victory
