"Citrus Passion"


Remember last summer, lying nude after playing love games...
Hot salty night, our skin the same…

Glistening bodies, slippery loves sweat…
Drifting together, legs tangled, wet…

You leaned over me, your kiss was sweet…
Then you whispered I'm thirsty, I'll get us a treat…

I didn't want to let you go, let the moment die…
I didn't want space between you and I….

Gently you disengaged from me…
Explaining you'd be back so patiently…

My eyes were heavy when you returned to love land…
Bearing your treat , an orange in your hand…

With the very first tear of the orange peel…
The spray of the juice on my body I feel…

We laughed in unison, the citrus had flare…
The mist felt delicious, heaven scent in the air…

You pulled off a section, rubbed it gently on me…
Then licked the juice off my thighs and tummy…

Urgent kisses now tasting of orange…
Lovers in heat, citrus passion reborn….

CITRUS PASSION REBORN!

I hear you bo, and I feel your feelings too. Seems like we're in the same boat, and neither of us has a paddle. flowerforyou

What's your plan to save us from drowning?

Ever in my quiet mind
I’m all alone with time
Eternally you bewilder me
And all I can do is cry
Every ache that ever was
Rages at once in my voided soul
Forcing me to admit defeat
I no longer have control
Life spirals me endlessly
I’m always too dizzy to think
How will I ever find you, or me
With hope dangling on the brink
Bravdo and wit might save my face
But nothing rescues me from the pain
Now I fear it is too late for us
As my will is no longer the same
Day after day I repeat my steps
Like a machine obeying commands
My feelings are irrelevant now
As I forget there was ever a plan
Going thru the motions that’s me
Is the only path ahead I can see
So what’s the point to all this fantasy
When only believers rely on their dreams

once upon a time
we were on the same path
having fun and lots of laughs
until one day we got mad
stopped talking, it was sad
since then, looking back
we can still see the tracks
even though we didn’t last
we’re always there, in our past

well, after we went our separate ways
we both began living just for today
knowing we can’t wait ‘til tomorrow
because time won’t let us borrow

so, we worked to forget about us
closing our eyes to all there was
though it might still sting some what
we had to move on from lost love

then, we came to this fork in the road
both trying to decide which way to go
should we move forward pretty fast
or keep traveling along nice and slow

either way, we get out and go to Mingle
after all, life is now, and we’re still single
so we joke around and begin to flirt
making new friends, we dish a little dirt

when all of a sudden we’re on red alert!
the lover’s past has come sneakin back
and it wants to take a bite out of our a$$
as passion and envy mix, there’s an attack

cuz, dying embers can reignite an old flame
it’s a natural occurrence nobody to blame
even if our lives have drastically changed
once hearts connect, love’s there to remain

besides, when a broken heart is on the mend
without time we haven’t gotten over it yet
and watching us have fun could get them upset
leading them to actions we all could regret

because in the heat of passion we often forget
green eyed monsters don’t play with a full deck
well, what do we do in relationships like these
how do we move forward safe and independently

and, will the next person understand this history
even sticking around when/if the s#it gets deep
I guess it just depends on the level of intimacy
that a new relationship has been able to reach

The end of your love is the end of love

I just want to be heard
I just want to be found
HELP!
IS ANYBODY THERE?
OVER HERE!
WHY WON’T YOU ANSWER ME?
Am I screaming or Am I paranoid?
My voice of reason forgotten
Away in the dry fields
So faint and tender; fading away
I see THEY CAN HEAR ME YELL
THEY APPROVE WITH THEIR HEADS
I’m confused
JUST AS FAST THEY LOOK AWAY
A common site?
Am I a criminal?
Another victim of mistaken identity!
Am I cursed to be abused?
TO BE USED & STEPPED ON
Am I a life or a stone?
So I close my eyes; Erase, Forgive, Forget
My open conniving eyes refuse to be deceived
I SEE YOU PIGS

Sited like a bewildered king
I stare at the world before me
the randomness of every frame
the different shoes & unique steps
Dirty, New, Filthy, Ugly, Clean
the ways of my race
A figure at end of the race
Position & wealth; Humanity’s Purpose
This kingdom of haste & hate
At my sight
She shrugs in disgust
Maybe its the stench
Maybe the drenched clothes
Maybe the dirty toes
Sometimes there’s just bigger things
This street, this world, mine
These sky ceiling my roof
my home.

His reflection so faint in the depth of my eyes
Have you lost weight?
Or are my eyes this far gone?
All I see is a Shadow
Like a thing discovering life
So frail and afraid
Hiding within itself, in that shell
A shy curious smile & a puzzled gaze
But something sane remains
Giving its place away
The rhythm of its solid heart growing tight
Sounds like a tortured soul about to break
Squalls of Anticipation reduced to showers of rain
Like a broken man broken again
I believe I had a stand-off with ugliness itself
I was puzzled & amazed
In the filth & insanity I found a face
Like a scene from a movie I’m staring at myself

Waking up to the squeaks of my teeth
It’s warm but I am cold inside
It’s the dreams preying on my peace of mind
So much commotion, confusion & effect
‘Am I an excuse or of use?’ A puzzle
As complex as abused kids getting off on inflicting pain
Who to blame?
Are they being dumb or is it Consequence?
BURRY THE PAST
Arrest me !!!
for the murder of whoever says that next
future & past are tied to the hip
Past without future is like good without bad
So I leak my wounds & suffer regrets
Hide the scars & look presentable

this is what he says to me…
I give you to the count of three…
to get your story straight my dear…
and…
I want to hear it loud and clear…
tell me why you pose in the nude…
your naked body exposed for his view…
why you give him what is mine to see…
how you could do it all for free…
you’re acting like a dirty slut…
just like a whore…
who can’t get enough…
you talk filthy trash like one too…
I’m surprised anyone still speaks to you…
you’ve made choices…
I don’t respect…
listening to the voices…
in your head…
we each have principles…
morals too…
so how can you live…
without any rules…
you answer to no one…
this you’ve said…
so alone you’ll stay…
while I’m this upset…
so upset…
I want to turn away…
make you feel the shame…
point the finger of blame…
at you…
I don’t understand why you did it…
why you would take such a risk…
don’t you care what anybody thinks…
your sinful nature…
I swear…
it stinks…

pitchfork :heart: pitchfork :heart: pitchfork :heart: pitchfork

who are you…
my judge and jury…
how I live…
is not your worry…
as an artist…
I capture my flaws…
as an artist…
I expose my flaws and all…
there is so much beauty…
in all the ugly…
to understand…
you have to see…
not every eye will agree…
that’s fine with me…
but…
to know an author…
you read her book…
to know a photographer…
you see the pictures she took…
to know me…
as a woman…
open your mind and look…
I’m not asking you for anything…
I’m not asking you to like me…
I’m just practicing my freedom of speech…
and my self expression is free…
until I decide otherwise…
how you react is what you’ll do…
but I won’t hold your choices against you…
and I’d appreciate you showing me the same respect too…
we’re all adults in here…
and I hope I’ve made myself perfectly clear…

Loud & Clear Love.

she asks me why I like to play…
hey… no way…
this isn’t a game…
this is serious today… he’s looking our way…
the one I want to see naked… be naked with…
our thoughts exposed for all to see…
uncovered and shaking… quaking the ground… unsteady minds all around…
waiting for walls to come tumbling down…
why frown…
smile… laugh… revel in our gaffes… art is to be enjoyed like that…
unrestricted… and yes… even conflicted…
it can be overwhelming… relentlessly compelling…
both magical and free…
seeking to please…
created between us three… a ménage a trois we can be…
you… me… and him…
and them… one… two… three… four… no telling how many, many more…
secrets begging to be unsealed… longing to be revealed…
hidden in darkness…
silent and daring… ready for sharing…
why hold back…
does it feel like an attack…
an attack on our senses…
breaking down all our defenses…
are we worried about denigration…
do we fear alienation…
for who we are…
for proudly wearing scars…
scars that defy our bleeding hearts…
we are who we are…
we are all rock stars…
each… in our own way…
let’s not be afraid…
let’s say what we came to say…
let’s write and portray…
lets’ be ourselves…
always…

when we met…
we were a triple threat…
he said… she said… we said…
everybody placed their bet…
how long would the magic last…
when illusions vanish fast…
our hands quicker than our eyes…
we weren’t surprised…
what we saw… is what we draw…
conclusions vs. delusions...
egos suffering contusions…
from envy to scorn…
happy to forlorn…

that’s what happened to us…

we began falling out of love…
all our feelings…
going… going… gone…
what went wrong…?
cold to hot… when unaware…
hot to cold… like we never really cared…
when we talked… it was heavy… dead air… empty stares…
we hoped the other would say goodbye… and… nobody would cry…
try to save us… why…
that would be a lie…

now… we’re moving on…

bygones in the past…
we ask…
is acceptance worth the task…?
no… yes… maybe…
it is…
sealed with a kiss…
an unconditional kiss of familiarity…
wakens the sleeping beauty…
in all of us…
who do we trust…?
communication a must… or a bust…?
who knows… what the future holds…
as we travel the same roads…
again… and again… and again…
unfettered…
refusing to pretend…

WOw!!!
acceptance isn't earned
it's given
so NO
it isn't worth the task
or maybe
depends really
sometimes we have to dig our own way
out of these dark holes
just for a moment of sunshine
so if your sunshine is away
fight your way into the heart

I’m always conflicted
between what is expected of me
& what I really need?
Do people just live or
Do we get to Live?
If you ask me I’d say
we waste all our time
satisfying other’s needs;

I do not dream, I have no dreams;
I lost my foresight;
somewhere between being
a father and a husband,
Responsibility caught up to me;
Dreams became too luxurious to keep
There comes a point where a man decides;
To make his family’s up keep first priority
Or to sleep in his shame & drown in his stupidity.

Does it matter what makes you happy?
Or are our paths already drawn
before our grand appearance?
Is it worth it?
To always be the kind quiet one
To have no arguments & no satisfaction
To be tasteless; not bitter, not sweet;
Being neutral to what’s nice & what hurts ;
All because, it is expected of you.
Do you ever feel Angry & tired of being so in control?
Do you ever feel like shouting? Hitting someone?
Going out to drawn in Foolishness?
Are you never frustrated?
