Take me to bed
In the forest
So I can feel the cold damp earth
Against my naked back
...
You said I was what you wanted
After I unzipped my skin
And stepped out a different person
Because who I was wasn't enough
...
I'm haunted by the ghosts
Of men
Who came into my life and
Shook it up
...
for a beautiful man
who will not read this
but should know
that getting to know him
...
When the air is still
And crisp
And not a sound is heard
As the sharpest of minds
...
I lost a lot of me
To be enough for you
I deserve someone
Who makes me their
...
I ate the fruit that I could reach
But you were unable or
Unwilling to shake more to the ground
So I tried climbing your trunk
...
Crescendo
Take me to bed
In the forest
So I can feel the cold damp earth
Against my naked back
Look up
And see in your eyes
A desire burning for eons
Draw the doubt from my soul
Through my lips
The only witnesses are the trees
As you press me into the ground
Electricity where our skin touches
The only sounds are our
Gentle hymnal moans between gulps of air
Kiss my translucent skin
Taste my hunger for you
As we reach a fervent crescendo
That rips me in half
I love the poet of one of the most romantic poems published on this site, Crescendo. I wish a long poetic walk for you dear young poet. Regards. Subhas
