Lovers Can Change (with audio)

Each ignored momentevery emotional brush-offputs more distance between us Your empty thrusts in the night do nothing to fill the void you’re leaving inside me Your lack of love is closing my legs Your minimal effort is breaking my heart  You’d better stop ignoring this –  Lovers can change to Othersand you’re starting to change me I don’t know about you, butContinueContinue reading “Lovers Can Change (with audio)”

Distracted By Memories

Baby, I’ve got a problem I’m distracted by memories of you –  placing kisses on my skin your hands brushing away my hair I can’t focus and I’m at work –  but my body is pulsing, remembering your touch these interruptions are too tempting not to indulge I’ve got to sneak away find a moment alone and see what I can do toContinueContinue reading “Distracted By Memories”

Sentimental (with audio)

I loved her once – her lips soft as cappuccino froth laughter like a bell chime calling me to church She kissed me once – pressed her chest against mine sighed into my mouth until her mother called her home I cried over her once – she wed the man who lived next door while my mother patted my hand andContinueContinue reading “Sentimental (with audio)”

Beyond Expectation

This this momentI might have dreamt about it and I can’t believe it’s happeningas your hand runs down my arm You whisper a husky â€˜Finally’in my ear The moment is finally here and our clothes fall like rain on the floor I’ve been thinking of youof us for monthsI’ve been imagining your tremor-inducing touch Your kiss on my neck, hand onContinueContinue reading “Beyond Expectation”

Losing Faith (with audio)

I’m losing faith in humanity… A man has an affair while his wife goes through menopausefucking a woman twenty years younger thinking he’s a hero for staying married A ‘Christian’ spews hate from their mouth condemning anyone who lives differently while loudly proclaiming God is love A woman sits with her friends gossiping about another poison filling the air while sheContinueContinue reading “Losing Faith (with audio)”
