Lips with no meaning More than anything I wanted to be your one and only lover. So many times I tried to keep us together. Yet time after time I could clearly see your heart chose not to fall in love with me. Yes, you possessed me in all your earthy splendor and each time I gazed at your lips they looked warm and they looked tender. No doubt, my lips wanted to feel loves every pleasure but her lips were thinking, enough already, why are we still together? Your kiss was lonely because you held back your love. They were lips with no meaning. Just a pair of empty lips hanging there. Somehow it just doesn't work when no love is attached. When only one cares and the other has no feelings to share. Have you ever thought about two lips going together with one wanting to give love and pleasure and the other thinking whatever. Your cold and crazy one way heart is destined to keep our lips apart. A heart unwilling to share a tender touch nor share a kiss, some love and trust. So tell me please are you real? Whats the deal with those empty lips? Don't you have a heart to give? I chose to give my love to you. Answers please. Why did you choose not to? Jameslee@March3,2000 July26,2000 |

Sudhir and Marina thank you so much...my sincere appreciation. This was from a relationship a ways into my past right now...as I thought of the relationship in retrospect I was hurt and I was angry...even today I still try to learn lessons from this...to find relationships that are mutual...a hard task for me because I seem to love to chase women that are unavailable...James |

James, how well you put it! Love has no meaning if it doesn't come from within! |

Thank you Marsha for the nice response. I was talking to a friend last night while we were kissing and I was telling her about this poem "Lips with no meaning" and she said what do I mean by that expression and I explained to her if both don't have the same feelings the kiss is meaningless. I did feel the sincerity of her kiss...I am not sure about mine...yet... Thank you Butterflies...yes I sincerly Love a good "love poem". One in which you can feel the emotions as you read the words....James |
