Moments Made Memories

by Kerri Miller

what has become of what we knew,
moments made memories so precious, the few,
the amount of love did depreciate,
life long searching for my soul mate,
I knew of you then, know of you now,
ever since you took the vow,
the rings of engagement,
or is it engaged by the ring,
whatever the reason there is no real meaning.

I close my eyes, I see your face,
I smell your fragrance,
your warm embrace.
I open my eyes, you are out of sight,
distant stranger in the night.
I close my ears, I hear you whispering my name,
kiss upon me, mixing pleasure with pain.
I open my ears, the sound of silence,
nothing,
words you don’t say.
I close my heart, I feel your hands,
and I love you for making me feel this way.
I open my heart, all has escaped,
the moments made memories,
all seem to fade.

Must I Choose?

I am torn, conflicted between one who is beside me and one that should be, I cannot decide. She is my anchor, speaks the words that comfort my heart. The other teases me, a fun loving heart they both make a perfect woman. But I must decide. Must I choose? She bats her eyes and I die, the other winks and my knees give way. Must I choose? She makes my heart faint with longing, The other cherishes me beyond what I can imagine, they both fill my heart with joy. If I part with her, I will die. If the other leaves me, my soul will be robbed of light. Must I decide? They both are the perfect woman. ~ Pandit. And so continues the emotional binge. Image: Diver From Beneath by Petr Kratochvil

La Morena and her... Negroe

by Jerome Hambrick I could have used your company last night Could have talked or had a tongue and kitty fight And no, I'm not all right Until you come over and fix my plight Had a most stressing day And was looking towards some one on one word play Your presence is enough for me I drink you in and perspire glee I remove you from your pedestal And return you back... your love gently bruised No matter the path I find beneath my feet I sense you just over my shoulder hovering, lovingly I enclosed you in our love knowing your fear of small places That defenseless look... could almost taste it And I know it's sick but seeing you that way turns me on But understand my illness will do you no harm My nature rages to overwhelm and break right through But I would turn tide on myself before it turned on you Because you loved me and you knew I wasn't right And for that I'd kiss your feet or risk my life You see the world needs more people like you...
