lovestory

My darling, I sit on the crumpled sheets as they

lay, tenderly touching every fold,

not wishing to disturb the memories they hold

Your yielding love in the dark of night

your soft exciting caresses and full kisses are

so right.

Your masculind hands pressing my eager body to yours

the beat of our hearts - the unspoken words,

the rythem of our bodies beckons obedience of our minds

with perfection one seldom finds,

Our eyes could not see, our ears could not hear,

our love captured all

as you thrust forward

to the grasp of my love well.

I awoke, your lips were on mine - my need for you is

ever great,

dearest, your touch melts doubts and morals,

I offer, I need, I take.

Please smile as I call your name when you leave,

and promise, oh promise my darling ----

you will return to me again.

Sturdy

"Are you mine" you ask of me,

as yes, my darling - for long shall I be

Your love has melted the sharp teeth of hate

that ground deep into my heart - my soul it did taint,

I was seared from the flames of the jaws of hell

that brought screams from my throat

and confused others as well.

Stark naked before them, susceptible to stabs

from spears of revenge

the liquor of your love softened the scabs and

pulled me back,

your rose blooms again.

Please keep me - as your flower

cut my stem and I should live no more.

Am I yours? Do not ask again

I am yours ---- and always have been.

Sturdy

"The seawind soughs in the marshgrass

And the day flames out,

The beach sands cool,

And the surf grinds on the shore.

Gulls roost on pilings, and ruffle

Their feathers into order.

They face the wind,

And the days goes too soon.

But you are here

And by me near

Let us feel no sorrow

For we have tomorrow

And tomorrow and tomorrow

A jeweled dawn comes,

summer dew droplets like tears hover

On palm fonds

Outside my jalousied window.

The morning's air

coming over the Gulf,

Is light as angel's breath.

Sleep never came to me

And I must hurry for the world awaits.

The sun grows larger

And squeezes light from a celestial tube

onto the pallets of day.

My tumbled bed.

Where I lay awake

Is empty laundry, and it has been.

And we are not greeting the sunrise

With sleepy good morning kisses

And newborn eyes.

I agonize,

With Lonliness.

I need you like the sea

Need rain and rivers to renew it.

Since you left,

I have missed you.

I have wanted you like a starveling

Wants food and surcease from pain.

Sometime, you will find this

and perhaps look at it before

you throw it away.

I came here because you are

the most important person

in the world to me.

Because, I want you and I need

you ---- you. No one else

will do.

And because I worry about you,

and because I love you

And because I want to take care of you,

If you will let me.

Down the long corridor of my days,

I go alone.

Your arm is no longer linked

in my arm.

And we will both miss many things

along the way

because we walk separately

Oh, my sad darling

do not weep for me,

for the seeds of devastion

devour me with glee!

Happy - was our marriage day

and sorrowful were the hours,

That floated away.

We knew not one another

our love simmered on

Jealously was kindled ----

Our love was gone.

Sturdy

Your eyes are sullen by my words,

how I wish they had not been heard.

Through my words,

I must appear despicable,

And you wonder - how could I have loved her

What did I see?

She means nothing at all

Nothing to me.

I gave you my love,

with a promise or two.

Now, my dear,

There are problems, with you.

Yes, darling, this is true,

you failed me

And I failed you.

And so, my sweet, sweet, heart

Adieu!

Sturdy

April weeps for you

no more.

The promise of May

warms my heart

with honesty from the mouths of those

who care

Gone are the winter months of cold deceit

which froze the fragments of my heart.

Go back

to your yesterday and morrow

that I may breathe
