Your half-naked body was glistening with sweat

The towel hanging from your neck

Was already soaking wet

Your image danced in my eyes

As I bit my bottom lip.

Your muscular thighs, too taut to grip.

I hope you like rain as much as I do,

Because all your wet dreams,

Are about to come true.

I thought of you late last night,

As sleep eluded me.

Sweet dreams are a thing of past,

Your memory tortures me.

We used to be a happy pair,

Perhaps that was a dream

Or maybe what I thought was happiness,

Was not what it seemed.

I love the way

You look at me,

When we share intimate space.

I love the way

You smile at me,

As you gently touch my face.

I love the way

You talk to me,

When we’re spending time alone

I love the way

You tease me,

When we’re talking on the phone.

I love the way

Your kisses

Make me hunger for you more.

In my heart I know that this is

What I’ve been waiting for.

My heart was beating

My chest was heaving

My mind was believing

That maybe…

When I opened my eyes

There would be a surprise

No more foolish lies

Would surround me…

But alas, I was wrong

I knew it all along

It is time to move on

And this time, I choose me.

Loving you was easy

Loving me took some work

I had to find myself and accept who I was

Amidst all the pain and hurt

See, I never thought I had issues

In my mind I was fine

Until things pointed out by you

Put self-doubt in my mind

Over time, things became clearer

There’s nothing wrong with me

You used criticism and comments

To hide your insecurities

As if by magic,

You appeared in front of me.

You weren’t there a moment ago.

Suddenly, what was once an empty space,

Contained you.

My eyes leaked at the sight of you.

I swallowed hard and licked my lips

As my breathing

Became more erratic from anticipation.

You moved closer,

Invading my personal space.

The back of your hand touched my face ever so gently

As the distance between our lips was replaced by the softest,

Most passion-filled kiss ever shared between two people.

My eyes are closed and I’m afraid to open them.

Afraid that I’m dreaming again.

That you’re not really here.

I first open one eye

And then the other…

the passion invasion is real,

And so are you.

Your presence is near me,

But why can’t you hear me?

I feel your heart beating,

But this too is fleeting.

Are you really here?

My view is unclear.

But my heart knows the deal.

These feelings are real.

I feel you completely,

And love you so deeply.

I will show you things you’ve never seen,

And take you places you’ve never been.

eyes thought they saw you

I heard my voice call you

I peered at many faces

And wandered through places

I’d not seen before

Knocked on door after door

But no door would open

So I was no longer hoping

To see you again

I guess this is goodbye my friend.

For years, we shared one heart,

Committed to only each other.

Somehow, we drifted apart,

And now we can barely stand one another.

No words to speak, no passion to share.

Each silently wishing the other wasn’t there.

I don’t want to hate you, nor wish you ill-will.

Somewhere inside, I love you still.

But for now, you go your way

And I will go mine.

Perhaps we’ll meet again,

In our next lifetime.

Back in love, making future plans

And promises we vow to keep.

Afraid but excited to be together again

Mistakes from the past, we don’t want to repeat.

Here we go again, lost in each other

So full of love and lust

Planning each moment and looking forward to another

Hoping to rebuild the trust.

When you love someone, it’s hard to say no,

You can’t just give up and walk away.

Here we go again, again here we go.

Vowing to be together, forever and a day.

Sometimes, I still think of you,

Even though we are apart.

I remember the things you used to do,

We’re still together in my heart.

Perhaps we were not meant to be

We couldn’t seem to make it work.

Maybe the differences between you and me,

Were what caused all the hurt.

I hope that you are happy now,

And things work out for you

I’ll be ok, some way some how

And I’ll be happy too.

Sweet pain

Did you feel that?

I felt it too.

I felt the heat

Radiating from your body

As the sweetest pain

Surged through mine.

I felt you inhale deeply,

So deeply that you exhaled through me.

I felt your body tremble as satiation loomed.

I felt the sweat drip from your body

And land on mine.

I clung to you tightly as you expanded…

Did you feel that?

Lovemaking is best when you've been thinking about it all day long. The slow burn deep down within the crevices of your body beckons for the touch of your lover... the sweet release of passionate reciprocity has arrived. Indulge and become one... as intended.

Slow Burn

Hey love, I’ve missed you.

You’ve been away so long.

Nights without you

Were cold and lonely.

There’s been a slow burn

In my heart since you left.

I’m so glad you’re home,

Can you tell?

What I missed most,

Was the love-filled look in your eyes

As you watched me undress.

That’s so flattering,

As if I couldn’t love you more

Then I already do.

Each day with you

Is like the start of a new romance…

and I like it.

When you're in love, you can never be close enough..................................................................................Come Closer

I see you, seeing me. I feel you, feeling me. Your sandalwood essence entices my senses And I like it. Come Closer. I need the heat That radiates from your body, To collide With the fire that burns within mine. You need it too, I can tell. The lust in your eyes And the slick of your lips, Calls out To the pain between my thighs And the dip in my hips. Come closer.

Broken Heart, Mended

How did you know my heart was broken? I had not told a soul. I kept the pain hidden inside, I hoped no one would know.

I looked inside and blamed myself. What could I have done so wrong? Could I have been too demanding? Had we been together too long?

Perhaps I should not blame myself, For why that love affair ended. Somehow, you must have heard my prayers, Because my broken heart, you’ve mended.

BLAME GAME

I wish I’d never met you,

Or ever saw your face.

I tried hard not to let you,

But you invaded my personal space.

Showered me with love and affection.

The fantasy finally came true.

I let down my guard, changed my direction,

Before I learned the truth about you.

Just as I feared, it was all a game,

You wanted to see if you could get me.

It’s not your fault, I accept the blame,

Now, move on, do you and try to forget me.

Is when you love someone,

But do not tell them so.

Is when you lie them

You smile a bit more often,

When you love someone.

The sun shines much brighter,

Your footsteps are lighter.

Your days become longer,

As feelings grow stronger

When you love someone.

Your nights are more lustful,

Your heart is more trustful.

AIR KISSES

The sun sets in the distance as we embrace.

I hold on to you tightly,

As though my life depended on it,

In some ways, it does.

I like it.

I close my eyes and feel our hearts beat

In synchronized rhythms.

Our chests merge to become one.

Your warm breath bathes my face and neck

With feathered air kisses.

It tickles.

I like that too.

At this moment,

The world stops spinning,

And time stands still,

For us.

DREAMS COME TRUE

I’ve imagined you for most of my life,

Didn’t think you would ever be mine.

I hoped that one day, I would be your wife,

And our love would stand the test of time.

We would say, “I Love You” every day,

And we would never have to wonder,

If the other felt the exact same way,

We could never be torn asunder.

We would remain faithful and true,

And secrets would never exist.

You would respect me as I would you,

And we’d seal each night with a kiss.

I do believe that dreams come true,

And good things come to those who wait.

I knew in my heart; I would receive you.

A little patience is all it would take.

THANK YOU FOR LEAVING

So, I confess, I was a mess,

After you walked away.

But I grew stronger and I no longer,

Think of you during the day.

If only you had left me sooner,

I might be further along.

I know now, what you knew then.

I’m better off with you gone.

And it teases me.

With countless visions of our contorted bodies.

We lock one another in an infinite embrace.

When love is lost, it can be difficult to refocus and prepare for attracting new love. Be strong, be positive and believe in the reflection you see in the mirror.

REFLECTION

Days are long, nights seem longer

Since we've been apart

Feel so weak

Wish I was stronger

But you still hold the key to my heart

Our love affair was great at first

Thought nothing could come between us

What eventually happened could not have been worse

You selfishly betrayed my trust

Fortunately, now, I love myself

No need to worry about me

I no longer need acceptance from someone else

I listen to the reflection that I see.

Nothing feels better than being in love and having lust as a primary ingredient.

LUST IS ENOUGH

I felt a spark the moment we met.

I’ve never believed in love at first sight.

Is it possible to love someone

You’ve never seen before?

Someone you know nothing about.

Yet, when we met, I struggled to breathe.

My eyes were fixated on the image that was you.

My heartbeat accelerated

As I unconsciously

Bit my bottom lip.

This may not be love,

But who cares?

Lust may be enough

And how we were aligned

Within one another’s minds.

It doesn’t happen anymore.

Did we grow apart

Or

Were we torn apart?

I don’t really have an answer for it.

We’ll both learn to love again.

Had you given up on ever finding love? I mean that honest, soul-searching, I can't live without you love? Imagine that just before you totally call it quits and walking away... you spot them. Your eyes meet, your hearts melt and you fall hard! Don't give up. It could happen to you.

ALONE IN A CROWD

The room was crowded, but all I saw was you.

So handsome and debonair, and well-dressed too.

I suppose I heard some voices; I couldn’t really tell.

If I’m being completely honest, only my eyes were working well.

I wanted to be near you, but my feet would not comply

Frozen in place, staring at you, as the crowd was passing by.

The people began to clear a path, so I could walk to you

To my surprise and sheer delight, you were walking too.

The distance between us disappeared and

We were standing toe-to-toe.

You looked into my eyes and said,

“It’s time for us to go”.

I gladly accepted your outstretched hand,

I could not have been more proud.

From that moment on, we were one.

I was no longer alone in a crowd.

Then you appeared

In desperate need

Of Love and Affection

Like me.

We were kindred spirits

Brought together by fate

Held together by love.

Salt Water is a poem about the emotional journey to self acceptance and the healing powers of shedding tears.

SALT WATER

Anxious and angry,

With no real reason why

Feeling broken and damaged,

Trying not to cry.

Things that happened long ago,

Seem fresh and new today

Hoping the anger doesn’t show

Wishing the hurt would just go away

Pray tomorrow will better

Hoping to feel renewed

But this day goes on forever

Annoyed, irritated and full of attitude.

Accept what is and let the tears fall,

Tell the painful past to be gone!

Emotional cleansing is the hardest of all

But necessary for life to go on.

Love affairs are amazing, when they're good and everyone is deliriously happy. But what happens when the thrill is gone and the relationship goes stale. You may decide that is is the best interest of both parties to go your separate ways. What's worse, is when one party begins to move on while the other is still in the relationship. The We That Was attempts to reminds us when love was good.

THE WE THAT WAS

What happened?

We used to share everything.

Thoughts, dreams, fantasies,

Desires, you name it.

Suddenly, the sharing stopped,

And the secrecy began.

We grew apart.

You abandoned the love affair…

And me.

I guess some things

Just weren’t meant to be.

That was the end

Of you and me.

Being in love is probably one of the happiest phase of Love. Nothing is better than feeling complete.

I'D CHOOSE YOU

Long before I met you,

I knew you in my heart

We spent much time together

And were almost never apart.

Days were filled with laughter,

And nights so full of heat.

Who knew what would come after

Would make my life complete.

But I never really knew you,

I’m dreaming once again

If I could, I’d choose you

As my lover and best friend.

Nothing warms a lonely heart like finding that one true love. You want to give your heart freely and accept love in return.

WITH THIS HEART

I take you, all of you, as my own

I take the sunshine, the rain and the floods that may come.

With this heart,

I take the good days

And those that may be tearful

I give you my all, so do not be fearful.

With this heart,

I come with no secrets

Cards on the table, without regrets

My imperfections, faults and flaws,

With this heart,

You must take it all.

If you are not ready, I totally understand

Perhaps it's not the time

To take you as my man.

With this heart,

I willingly walk away,

For childish games, I have no time to play.

Looking for a new love can be scary following a breakup. Give your heart time to heal before sharing it again.

UNREADY HEART

Gripped

By loneliness,

Frozen

By fear.

Trying to find the courage

To love again.

My mind says

I’m ready.

My heart says

I’m not.

Being told that you're not good Enid but pretty enough, but smart enough or anything related to you not measuring up to societal norms is hurtful. Believe in you and accept your own opinion as your law..........................................................................................MORE THAN ENOUGH

-------‐---Whomever told you that You were: - not pretty enough - not smart enough - not thick enough - not thin enough - not light enough - not good enough Should see you now that YOU know You’re enough, And on a good day, You’re too much! Believe that you’re enough, And whomever thinks you’re not, Is not good enough for you.

Nothing is worse than being in a relationship with someone that constantly plays games with your emotions.

UNFUNNY GAMES

To pretend nothing affects you or

That you couldn’t care less

Is not a show of strength or courage

You’re lying to yourself.

We’ve tried more than once,

And it’s always the same.

You get what you want, by playing

Unfunny Games.

You say things will be different,

That you will try harder.

You’ve lied again, I blame myself

I should have been smarter.

I’ve been down this road before

And not a thing has changed

You’re still all about you

And still playing

Unfunny Games.

Nothing can be sweeter than being surprised by a passionate kiss when you least expect it.

TOUCHING KISSES

Where did you come from?

Were you always here?

I mean, I thought I felt you

But, when I looked around,

I saw nothing but the curtain

Swaying softly from the evening breeze.

Disappointment envelops me,

Sadness creeps in as I sit quietly,

And relive our last moments together.

My eyes are closed tightly,

And a smile captures my lips

Just before, before

I feel your lips touch mine again...

Aah, there we go.

Sometimes, a breakup, although devastating, can be just what you need to move forward. Your new love will find you, when the time is right.

How did you know my heart was broken

I had not told a soul

I kept the pain internalized, I hoped no one would know

I looked inside and blamed myself

What could I have done wrong

Could I have been too demanding

Had we been together too long?

Perhaps I should not blame myself

For why that love affair ended

Somehow you must have heard my prayers

And my broken heart has been mended.

This selection taken from the Self-Love section of "Peonies + Coffee - Five Phases of Love" anthology, by Devin LuRenz ©️2020, All rights reserved..............................................................................Back from the brink of no longer caring about yourself. Back from the pangs of anger you felt after being hurt. Back from the edge you stood near, Wishing someone pushed you. Back from the heartaches, heartbreaks, And heart takers, to whom you mattered not. Back from the self-hating, self-loathing, Self-punishing person you used to be. You’re back and now you’re here.

Here to accept the greatness that is waiting for you. Here to spread the love and joy felt just by Opening your eyes to see another day. Here to believe that if you give much, you get much. Here to live each day as though it were your last. Here to embrace what is and what will be, And release what was. Here to encourage, uplift and support, Whomever is in need Here to excite, entice, love and be loved. Here now to enjoy the journey of life as it should be.

Don't hide your emotions, be true to yourself. Suppression of emotions, could be harmful to your health. If someone hurts you, let them know, It doesn't make you weak to let your emotions show. True strength and courage come from within, Shedding tears from pain, is when the healing begins.

Don't hide behind insecurities, you have everything you need to succeed. Your imagination can transport you To where you've always wanted to be Anyone who tries to stifle it, Does not want you to see

How amazing you truly are And all that you can do Remove all inner doubt within yourself And unleash the real you

It may be a little scary, but you can handle it You've overcome the hardest thing Because you didn't quit!
