Languishing lovers

the kiss

I delight whenever you can cover me in your kisses
But your smile is what my heart most misses
And as twilight descends
Another day away from you ends
With lovely thoughts of you filling up my head

Coffin Candy

portrait-3045896_1280

She was a real tasty candy apple treat
Loved by all the men she’d often meet

Subtly sexy and radiating desire
Just what every man sought, wanted, and required

But there was a secret which she kept hidden
Something about her, so temptingly forbidden

One nip from her and they’d finally understand
Vampires always have the upper hand

Plump and provocative
Was all he ever saw
Her luscious curves
Were the only real draw

He said he cared for her
And wanted her for his own
Then another woman appeared
And his cover was blown

September sunrise

wedding-2616652_1280

Your smile is like a September sunrise
The warmth of it permeates to my very core
And with every amusing expression you give me
I can’t help but want you more

Butterflies appear out of nowhere
Whenever you’re around
And sometimes I’m afraid you’ll disappear
If I dare breathe or make a sound

You’re like a wonderful dream
Seeming too perfect to actually be true
But my hope is that all my September’s
Will now be more resplendent because of you

Poor Petunia

sorrow-699606_1280

She heard him stumble in
Smelling of smoke and cheap wine
It was half past two
And he had crossed the line

She’d been sound asleep
In such peaceful repose
Then he staggered in
And began licking her toes

She tried to be nice
Even gave him a quick wink
But she was tired of his shenanigans
Whenever he would drink

So she rolled right over
And ignored his advances
He needed to learn
There were only so many chances
