I ask a million questions that irritate, I know, It's just we share so little and nothing of you shows. You touch me through your poetry that we share on the net. But passions you produce in me are enough to make me fret. It's not that I'm a stalker, it's just my curious mind I want to know what makes you tick, what treasures I could find If we could commence with talking and then move on from there I know we could communion deepen and find things to share. But if you keep your distance, as you have done before And only share your poetry you're closing up a door that I could use to meet you on a higher plane Instead I'm filled with regret it's sex and poetry again. It's just like sex and poetry on a winter's day I look for charm to keep me warm while spring is far away. Although I do not know them, a one night stand to fire all the secrets of my heart, and passions to aspire. The next day I'm alone and memories so sweet are all that's left to stay the bitter embered, dying heat So I read up on the poetry that enflames me once again And your presence moves my hand until, I forget the pain. It's only sex and poetry, it doesn't mean a thing It's just a hand, a one-night stand, an emotionless fling It's only sex and poetry over distance deep A way to get through the day and find a way to sleep. It's just like sex and poetry and loving plays no part So I'll take some string and reel in and wrap it round my heart You turn passion into poetry, remember if you could When the bird has flown and you're alone at least the poetry's good "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Lynne....Intriguing thoughts, very lovely indeed! Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility. -William Wordsworth- |

Click glad you liked this, it was a poem written in anger. You can see it if you read between the lines. Rex thank-you for your comments.

Kethry, so well said hon! And then to take it further, they are those who get all confused by writings and don't see the truth, or see something that isn't there. It can be confusing all right. Well written hon!! *Friendship is a horizon - which expands whenever we approach it...* ~Isis~Goddess~~Sovereign of the Spirit~ |

DkW, Thanks for your strong words of encouragement. little girl. Thank you so much. jmlee12345. So do I, although I haven't had much of the former, guess I'll just have to settle for good poetry.

Thanks Cerenity for the "perfect". taramw. thanks, combinations are my speciality. Now how about 23 left, 10 right, 14 left. Isn't that a good combination.

Wow Keth, this one rocks! (dont't know where that expression came from ), but as DKW says, there's not much left to add! So much emotion here, so much frustration too. Brilliant! Lotharingia "Dreams are life, reality, creation" Miguel de Unanumo |

Kethry, sex and poetry... I am waiting for JUdy Garland to appear and sing "a few of my favourite things" (sorry for the reference to The sound of music). Again I find myself relating alot, but sex and poetry is nice I perfer love and poetry... in the long run the sex tastes sweeter.. *wink* and that is all I am going to say. Loved the poem.

Lotharingia, thanks you light up my life with your comments. Brian, thought you'd gone away. Now Judy Garland singing "my favourite things" would be sex and poetry.

Shira, thank you. It's always lovely when you stop by and read. But doesn't it take you away from real life. *winks* Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

I enjoyed reading your poem, and thought it was wonderfully written. I can relate to your words also, and saw such vision within them. Great job! Its the first time I've read any of your work, and I'll be sure to watch for more! Thanks for sharing!! Cyndey "All that we see or seem, Is but a dream within a dream" Edgar Allan Poe |
