JMariah Poems

In all the world
I've never known
a sweeter touch than this:
...

2.

I am the raven,
silent black space
behind a knot
in a tree,
...

there's a hole where a future fell in,
and there's a knot that tightens
in a stomach.
a head tilts forward
...

I’m consumed by a raging sadness
that like a fire burns within,
searing scars left behind from memories
of a love over-shadowed by sin.
...

The Best Poem Of JMariah

The Kiss

In all the world
I've never known
a sweeter touch than this:

the hot press of
my lover's lips
and mine locked in a kiss.

Though hands may stir
my panting flesh
to quiver deep within,

and whispered words
may lick their way
across my tingling skin,

no single touch
can do so much
to warm me quite like this,

as when my lover
freezes time
and holds me in a kiss.
