No Cheap Lovers

by Boyana Petkova found here Living in frustration? Take me home We don’t exist all alone my lips will revive you I don’t wanna be just another lover don’t cheapen my kiss Our sex means more to me –  can’t you feel it in my touch? Baby, we’re so good together maybe it’s time to love each other If forever means this doesn’t have to endShouldn’t weContinueContinue reading “No Cheap Lovers”

Just Like That (with audio)

Photo by Karen Laårk Boshoff from Pexels And just like that the emotions slam into my chest It’s as though we were never apart and my body starts aching from missing you all over again We broke through the barrier of our carefully constructed silence Your voice is still ringing in my ears and my betraying heart sings –  it seems youContinueContinue reading “Just Like That (with audio)”

Autumn’s Melancholy

there’s a melancholy that descendswhen the weather changes like thisor perhaps it’s simply who I am now i’m descending into grey the days slide byone blurring into the other and I see myself in the hallway mirrorracing from one thing to the nextbut the light is fading outside the light is fading inside Some impromptu poetry.Sorry,ContinueContinue reading “Autumn’s Melancholy”

Words

Where have all my words gone?  Did you take them when you left and took flight –  packed up in your witty conversation  along with days kissing naked in bed? I’m unable to write our poetry the emotions were stolen that night –  there’s no use in scripting old promises that will no longer be cherished or read The words, they’veContinueContinue reading “Words”

Like Stone

Bust of Antinous, 131-132 AD, Museo del Prado, Madrid Without a crack of emotionyou stand before me like stoneso fiercely independent – when we’re together, I’m alone I wonder if you’d miss me if I walked out the door? How can you say you love me when I can’t tell anymore? You say it’s not your intention  for me toContinueContinue reading “Like Stone”

Open Doors

I can’t do this anymore The passion and drive have dissolved diluted by the trauma and frustration at a broken system I can’t drum up the motivation smile and pull others up from their knees –  apparently, there’s a limit to how many knocks I can take It’s a toxic relationship and I’m only realising it now working in a placeContinueContinue reading “Open Doors”

These Are The Days

These are the days when love comes to test us to see if we meant what we said A well-worn kiss shouldn’t be discarded Familiarity isn’t something to scoff at Your hand in mine has always made sense– time hasn’t made me senseless These are the days between yesterday and tomorrow when love asks  what it has meant and what it’ll continue toContinueContinue reading “These Are The Days”
