safe and secure
[circa 1995]
safe and secure
in my own private world
i don't want to love you
i don't need that from you
you always leave me
aching and alone
hot and abandoned
flesh still warm
from the love that we made
this time i'm leaving you
the same way you came
without warning or reason
fear
and this stir-crazy itch
my only excuse
but if i have to see
your eyes
one more time
your car parked out front
your jeans on my floor
i'll love you
...and lose.
Stumble It!

Glad to see you posting more poetry--intense feelings in your words
thank you, sage:) i don't know how to NOT live/write with intensity. take care n stay well!!
May you always make the most of life, enjoying life fully for the gift it is, scribbling words of passion that as you stretch yourself to new heights, you share your journey and thereby encourage others.
awww! that was an unbelievably beautiful thing to say, sage...whomever you are! thanks always for your enlightened comments on my blog:)
