Why?


Love.

Where you do you find it?

Under a rock?

Or behind a tree?

Happened unexpectedly

Wasn’t supposed to be this way

Two souls connecting physically

Bodies entwined

Feeling each other

Softness of your tongue in between my clit

The way you lift and pull

My head bobs as I go down

In a circular motion swishing your stick shift around

Nothing made me feel less like a ho

But more of someone that could be…

I was wrong

I shouldn’t have let my heart fall

No strings attached, the attraction was there

Should have just let it be

I wish, I could have just wanted that body

Instead I fell too deep and getting emotional

A thousand times I apologize for falling so deep

I should have known a person a of your calibur could never be interested in lil ol’ me

So I’m moving on

My old ass needs to step

Take a look outside the window

Re-evaluate our situation one more time

Never should have opened my eyes

Never should have trusted you

Never should have kissed you

You just wanted some help

My mind is what you were after

I wish I could go back

And turn the hands of time

Why are you driving me so crazy?

On my mind 24/7

Thoughts of you runnin’ rampant

Wonder what you’re doin’

Who you’re with

Is she prettier than me?

Is she smarter than me?

Is she honestly a better person than me?

You hurt me so

Yet I still care

Can’t seem to let you go

You left me

Will I see you again?

So beautiful…

What did you do to me?

Why can’t I let it be?

I wanted to be more

But now I just want to be a friend

Your eyes

Your style

The way you move drives me wild

But you hurt me

Made me cry

Shunned me

Yet I still love you

Your caress

Your kisses

Your power makes me weak

Never has a man ever had such control over me

I feel like a little girl

What did I do to make you not want me no more?

Was it my frivolous ways?

Was it the way I carry myself?

I was willing to change for you

I was willing to be what you wanted me to be

Perhaps, I was a bit too sexual

A little too bold

I was in no way trying to harm you

Just wanted your heart…spend a little time

Our encounters were not just encounters

There was meaning

A feeling of complete passion

A game of good ol’ fashioned fun

That feeling of being wrapped in your arms was something to experience for a lifetime

A little pushy…perhaps

A little overt…perhaps

The kisses were strong, but definite steam

They were not kisses of nothingness

They were kisses to make love under the stars

F***in’ you would have made a whole year of turmoil

Seem like it was actually worth something.

Experienced something like this once, where we both decided to leave our hearts at the door yet she let hers slip in the back way and got attached. Our mutual decision to be lovers only, became her individual decision to love. I know you can't control that but I went out of my way to avoid any emotional attachment and I ended up feeling horrible because she wanted love when we were only sharing our bodies. I couldn't give her what I didnt have. Great poem, seems like it was written to me. (Smile)

a sensual story - I was there myself- I don't believe you were too sexual or bold - I like that- that cannot be - to explore and enjoy new things is the best- your pain will get better as time goes on and writing about will help

its a bit indulgent, but very straightforward in its own right.

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
