STRUGGLE

In my mind I want to deny
In my heart I feel content
I want to be far away
Yet not too far away
I want you near
Yet when the words come out
I push you away.
I have but one desire
My heart knows you will fulfill it
In my heart of hearts
I know
But I am scared to admit
And accept defeat
So I keep on fighting
The truth is there
Smile I do
Weight I gain
I am content
But the struggle is within
It is like a raging battle
That never stops
I hope one day
I will look back
Not regret
The decisions I have made.

JUNKIE

I can’t do without
I can’t live without
Every day I want
Money doesn’t count
I don’t care for time
I don’t want anything
Other than my daily fix
I am wild
Without it
I am blind
When high
It gives me such a high
It lift’s me off the wall
In its embrace
I am able to soar
Conquer the impossible
Climb the highest mountain
Swim the deepest sea
I can torture and beat
The matadors
At their own game
Without it
I am a little gal
A shy woman
A fragment of myself

I have said it more than once
I have said it over and over
Probably muttered it in my sleep
Your love is addictive
Without it
I am a……..

SALSA.

Come closer
He silently says
His eyes
Hypnotize me
His smile
Mesmerizes me
Every time he moves
I start to shiver
Goose bumps on my flesh
A shiver runs down my spine
He lightly touches me
I move away
His hand pulls me back
His hand around my waist
I move with the rhythm of his hips
He pushes me away
Then draws me in
His arms encircle me
Cheek to cheek
Lips lightly touch
Sparks fly across the room
The fire starts to burn
From my feet to my head
He scares me
The rhythm
The movement
The passion
All that clouds my mind
In his arms I am a slave
I do his bidding
I can’t let go.
He seduces me
With hot and spicy
Salsa.
