Comfortless

Skin as soft as peach fuzz
Lips the color of blood
Eyes are teal pools, a blue like a paradise's ocean
Your touch is quiet
As are your words
You speak as though I might hear you
Although I might as well be deaf
For though you are perfect
I feel, strangely, that you take me for granted
And that I will never find sweet, blissful relief
In your comfortless arms
That I have never touched.

A Love As Quiet As Thunder

Your touch is hot and soothing
A connection I have never broken
Nor could I ever
Nor do I want to break it
I see a lifetime in your arms.
Your mouth is warm and moving,
Quick and brief upon me
You steal your kisses
You never ask
You rebel.
Eyes as soft as thunder
Wildly racing,
As though I might disappear from your eyes
In an instant--one moment here
The next moment, gone.
Touch as cold as fire
Eyes, bright like lightning
You are a storm
A tornado, a hurricane
Ripping through items in your path
You rip through me
Tearing me in places I have never been torn
So how can I enjoy it?
But I do.
Life is a moment in your arms
The spark at your touch
Existence is eye contact with you
If only for a brief, halting, passing moment
Life is you.

The first poem is about a love that never was, nor could ever be. (Coral, Erin, Lykie...(yes, I called you Lykie, get over it!) you know who this poem is about. Don't say anything about it. I don't wanna talk about it.)

The second poem, A Love As Quiet As Thunder, is about a romantic relationship that could go on forever. I don't normally write poems about this, but I'm feeling unusually romantic today. I can't figure out why. Maybe it's the goddang hormones. You never know, LOL.

I hope you like them. I'll post more soon, but now I have to get off.

Before I get off...when I wrote the name of the topic, I was being sarcastic. biggrin Don't take it literally. But if you like, you can still worship my awesomeness. There's plenty to go around, rofl .

A Wolf Disguised As Red Riding Hood

You speak to me lovingly
Your caresses are better than a massage
Your kisses are better than wine
Your punches and slaps are better than air
Everything you do is perfect.
Your apologies are meaningless
Because I always forgive you
Even the day you broke my arm
Even the day you were caught with the other woman
Even that day.
Even now, as I walk out the car
To the door of the shelter
And the woman calls the police when she sees the bruises
I will love you
Even as a wolf disguised as Red Riding Hood.

Cinderella

You danced with me all night
I could've danced every night
I could've spread my wings
And done a million things
But now, even though you're gone
Life, it will go on
I remember that last dance
When I watched my walls come down
My protective shields vanish when you appeared
And then watched my love crumble down around me
When I left you.
I know our love is true, my dear
But a moral has been learned well
You can love something,
But you don't always deserve it
And even as I work hard enough to bring tears to my eyes
I'm not stupid
I understand
I don't deserve you.

Romeo

My only love has sprung from my only hate
My most beloved
Has come from my most despised
My only enemy has created my only dearest
And you are my dearest
My dear, you are mine
But you belong to the Montagues
And I am a Capulet
Engaged, betrothed to Paris
The man I have never met
The stick figure, the puppet, the threat, the obstacle
And you are real life
You are kisses, you are love, you are more than anything
More than anything I have ever known
That is why we must be together.
Even after death.

**Hope you like them! Sorry, I normally don't watch kid movies, but...I'm on a Disney rampage, LOL. Don't mind the whole "Cinderella" title thing, it just fit best! Ahh...I love Romeo & Juliet, especially the 1996 version. Leonard di Caprio...ahh...he does things to my insides! *shivers* LOL I'm rambling now. Hope you like 'em! POST!!**

Way to stay productive Kleo. Good rhythm, short and concise structure. Guess i'm the first to post a response. i'm going to respond haphazardly and react by just posting whatever comes to mind. In this case it's the band Warpaint and the song "Undertow".

The youtube and lyrics are here: http://www.hotnewsonglyrics.com/warpaint-undertow-lyrics.html

and of course the xlr8r write up on the band and single with free mp3 download:
http://www.xlr8r.com/mp3/2010/09/undertow

and here are the lyrics to said song included in the same post:



Warpaint – Undertow



Your brown eyes are my blue skies.
They light up the river that the birds fly over.
Better not to quench your thirst.
Better not to be the first one diving in,
though you caught me and you know why
they breathe in the deepest part of the water.

What’s the matter? You hurt yourself?
Opened your eyes and there was someone else?
Now i’ve got you in the undertow.
Now i’ve got you in the undertow.
Why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
Ah ah ah you better learn your lesson yourself.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.

Let tonight pass us by.
Do you really want to be the one to fight?
And i said “You’re better not to light that fire.
It will take you to the darkest part of the weather.”

What’s the matter? You hurt yourself?
Opened your eyes and there was someone else?
Now i’ve got you in the undertow.
Now i’ve got you in the undertow.
Why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
Ah ah ah you better learn your lesson yourself.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.

http://www.hotnewsonglyrics.com/warpaint-undertow-lyrics.html

Nobody in my mind. Nobody in my mind.
I feel it in my heart tonight.

I laid on the floor, pressing in my eyes.
Seeing little lights.
These are the decisions that only one could make(?)
I wanted to stay home but i went running running running running from the troubles
runningrunningrunningrunningrunningrunni ngrunning

What’s the matter? You hurt yourself?
Opened your eyes and there was someone else?
Now i’ve got you in the undertow
Now i’ve got you so
why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
Ah ah ah you better learn your lesson yourself.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.
Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.

-In my opinion more people should drop by and leave a comment. Writing, poetry and lyric composure are often thankless full time jobs. It doesn't have to be this way though. Yay Kleo!

Thanks for the inspiration. Cute song, I liked it. You ever heard of Red or America? Simple names, but I love their songs. I'm a hard rock fan--and country, and classical music, and a couple of rap songs. I'm spread all around the music chart.

Even If My Heart Would Break

Even if my heart would break
I'd still love you with everything I had
Even if my heart would break
I'd still take the good with the bad.

And though--you may find
I'm a bit--satisfied
I know that you're not
But it's a fairy tale plot
And you've got--got to know
There's a happy ending for us all...

A kiss is just a kiss
Unless it's you I've missed
And a heart is still a heart
Unless you can't break it apart...
Oh and when will you see?
That we're meant--meant to be!
It's perfectly
Just you and me...

Because even if my heart would break
I would love you with everything I had
Even if my heart would break
I would never think your love was bad.

((Unfinished, but this is set to a song...very dramatic and loud.))
