I’m on fire
Filled with desire
Only you can appease
So please…
Be gentle with my heart
It’s been broken in the past
Whisper…
Sweet nothings in my ear
Only you and i can hear
And touch me
Tenderly

Damn and they just get better the more I read… did you teach yourself to do this or does it just come naturally .. a thought process that flows..???

Some of each, I think, BD. I started blogging just plain writing to get rid of my frustrations. Then I read the poetry of one of the other bloggers and it was soooo beautiful that I decided to see if I could do it too. Of course mine wasn’t a patch on hers, but it does sometimes just flow and the poems seem to write themselves. There are times, however, that I struggle mainly for topics and/or how to finish off the poem. The blogger who was my inspiration is no longer publishing poetry but she sometimes leaves a comment on my work.

It’s not easy to begin again. Not for everyone… Glad you liked it, Brian. I wrote it to music in my head.

Everything in life comes with risk, Carl. We wouldn’t achieve anything if we didn’t take a chance. I don’t think there’s anythng wrong with careful and calculated risks. One has to ask oneself, ‘Is it worth taking the risk?’
