Poem: Lyrical motions by candlelight

note: this is an honest piece about the differing perspectives men and women have about love and sex. i learned the hard way.

warm moist air glides silk,
lifting, diffusing, touching,
umber streetlight leeches
through mis-closed curtain;
soundless shadow reflects arm's caress.

cream wall reveals flicker.
candle burns wax inviolate,
accompanying stereo's whisper;
walls solid, yet boxing clever:
music continues surely within.

aural cavity yet breath heated,
seeks words assurance unfulfilled,
mouth keenly engulfs blushed lobe.
legs twine and minds twist,
twinned arms join in mutual clasp.

turgid head bows to heavy breast,
nipple succumbs to urgent tongue.
tense wait relaxed, amused,
empathic wax flame leaps.
One's head, other's hands.

Contact encouraged hero,
his hands on her hips.
plays staccato kisses
on sweet, sweat covered tum.
musical lust bearing harmonies

thighs surrender to urgent pressure,
flesh greets oral tonic.
cool silence broken monophonic,
her gasp forming melodies.[Who am I?]
minds stiring caressed removed.

urgency arouses thoughts betray,
pure lips and heart cease.
soul destroyed by betrayal,
beats in breast renewed.
refreshment hiccoughs psychosis

lips meet touch clammy,
short candle sputters ghost.
wax pools, barrier breached.
tongue strokes tongue.
lust pools, barrier broken.

pressure seeks formal assent, [what do I want?]
knees bowed, curved reception,
welcomes hipped invasion.
painted expression of admiration,
head poisoned love, euphoric.

natural re-known nudity
expresses deep hurt
soul's belisha beacon
marks pedestrian revelation
not only candles snuff out {is he the one?}

skull fuck telepathic:
disseminates knowledge masculine_
penetration is swift,
and wholly indelible.
mighty pen, mightier sword. [you cad, you fake, you fuck]

further expression not required
embrace distinguishes only lust
tongue and lip and limb
betray nought but self
golden handshake of love remains

that which angers, transforms
wholly mis-understood,
innocence through nonsense.
and yet I must confess,
despite all this,

I don't know the rules

I never knew the rules

[I'm sorry]
