Alison Smith Poems

The bodies entwined
Glistening from the play
Nerve endings pulsing
The preparation had been made
...

The crossroads have loomed up and hit her
Her confusion has become immense
She knows not which way to turn
Its as though her ability to decide has been taken away.
...

Forever fighting for existence
Always pushing for more
Good is never enough -
Perfect is the only way.
...

Within the shimmering scene of passion
Flows the cascading feelings of delight
There are emotional mixings of feelings
Nervous action pulsing through
...

As the tears poured out and the body soared
She felt a strange feeling of release
Maybe this time the bonds would finally be broken
This time her isolation would be complete
...

To drift among the clouds
Meeting fellow travellers
Discussing the choices in life
Laughing at what fun they will have.
...

Why should our union work?
How can our two lives come together?
What commitment must we make?
Can it really be?
...

I stand at the start of a new beginning
I have handed by despair its marching orders
I am going to face tomorrow with a smile
My life is going to be different
...

Why do we seek these unions
When we know how much it hurts
How can we place ourselves at risk
Terror and pain are the main results
...
