grace mariner Poems

Rivulets of silver make crystalline track marks as they flow.
I look for you everywhere I go.
I see you everywhere we went.
Perhaps you sheltered me from some greater evil...
...

How can pain inspire as much, if not more, than love?
I regret the day we met and yet, I wonder how I've ever
lived without you.
The real world disappears as if by sleight of hand when
...

And Luna asked Sol, why do you hide me away?
Is it because I change from day to day?
I am a sliver of gold in the darkness of night,
or a pale shadowed orb lighting the lovers' path at night.
...

And a year has passed between us.
An eternity in days counted by the heart.
You exist in another place and time, with other damsels
in distress and jesters in your court.

You would never let me in.
No matter how close, you were never able to let down your defenses.
I gave all that I am.
I know it's not much but it was all I had.
...

Oh but what a sight for sore eyes!
Six four, orangutan arms and gun metal eyes that narrow like a bird of prey.
I feel ' congested ' when I think of your touch.
I feel congested all of the time.
...

You answered questions never asked.
How can this be?
Your eyes were blue, the color used to see dreams and futures unraveled.
Did you cast your runes to predict my thought?
...

Our little band of thieves is in danger of the worst kind,
the kind that comes from within.
It is insidious by nature, lurking and slithering to
infiltrate at the most critical moment.
...

Your touch is nuclear.
It melts my core until I am soaked from the inside out.
You blow your warm soft breath against my skin and
currents of electricity coarse through me, making me become erect
...

I am your lover, not your conscience.
Those two rarely mingle well together and have often been the best
reason for 'faking it' on our part.
There is no room for regrets or judgement in my bed.
