Lust not Love |

No resistance to lips bated by passions saccharine taste Our bodies entwined, ribbons of flesh and bone, in ardent dance Within the warmth of pierced flesh we lose ourselves melting into one In whispers and sighs faithful professions of love eternal Words without weight that spill from lips maintaining the illusion that this is love and not lust (A laboured effort those last two verses, in the end I just wanted to be done with it. Hope you like it though) [This message has been edited by Aenimal (12-09-2002 10:41 PM).] |

inkedgoddess who said I didn't? lol Hey, thanks again for the support a lot of my edgier stuff is tanking and though I don't post for approval it's still nice to read a thought or two from people not swayed by touchy subject matter. |

Aenimal. There is a big different when hearts are involved. The last two lines seemed okay. That was the message and could almost be a regular love poem (if you happen to be a sweet and low user, smiling) but, really could have been except for the third to last line, it changed to what your intention was, according to title I liked this. A very real part of life. Warm regards, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

SO many people screw up their lives because of your last stanza. If some people recognized good, healthy lust instead of feeling they have to define it as love to justify it their lives would have been much different. Nicely, er, laid out.... |

Perhaps, lust is the first foundation of Love...? -MVS "AS ABOVE SO BELOW" |

or Mark, perhaps it is the emotional rationalization for lust.... the write seems honest...and the conclusions left to the reader, I enjoyed this.. |

Thank you Pat I love leading it one way and then ending poems with a strong or abrupt conclusion Balladeer we screw our lives up anytime we try to define it. Seldom learning to just let it be. P.S Love the pun which i'm sure was intended lol Mark I've found it's either a foundation or a wrecking ball Cpat a very good point, we try to rationalize everything instead of, as Balladeer pointed out, just enjoying it for what it is without having to define or justify Seymour sometimes but not always, and thats why we make the mistakes. Glad you all enjoyed it |
