Ruby Honeytip Poems

Today is the morning,
You were not my first thought,
I still lie here motionless,
But I'm not feeling distraught.
...

Silent density has settled,
Like an aural veil.
Ennui bores me with her hungry stare...
And I stare back.
...

He left a message on her voicemail
She saved it and she listens
She listens and burns.
She is a fool
...

'You don't bring me flowers'
Is the song in all my showers
The loneliness is all
Washed down the drain.
...

Have you ever opened a woman like me?
Pierced through her private truths
To find every answer you have sought.....
And every question you've never thought to ask?
...

You say my name.
Your deep voice slides through me,
And lands in my swollen depths.
You mean something to me.
...

A little rock that's stuck in your shoe,
Is not a real problem per se,
Not until your sole is bruised,
When you reach the end of your day.
...

I am so grateful,
You appeared on my horizon.
Your smiling eyes,
Quirky, such sweet company.
...

So much of what I know of
True love
Has not been learned
By my own shaking hands
...

Our cards are on the table,
All my Aces are face down,
My Poker Face practised, perfect,
In for a penny or a pound?
...
