shiver you*
*see, Arbs? I told you it would haunt me...
when you come too close
to the raw inside
with healing hands
accepting eyes
with shoulder turned
and twisted smile
I close the door,
hide deep inside;
and shiver you.

It certainly did Dextra
But if this is the result of you being haunted - then I hope for many more opportunities to preoccupy that enigmatic mind of yours!
PS: This poem....severed my heart. Tragically breathtaking.
Dex
impenetrable
the fortress that saves your soul
from love's redemption
Fralls
he wears loveproof vests,
but hers is hollow-point love -
and her aim is true.
Dex
She knows he’s dying
For a resurrection from
Her love alchemy
Frallie
as she softly strokes
his hair and his heart, she sees
an old fire reborn.
Dex
Not so old as young
Not so young as what's undone,
unsung, unlived, un...
Frallie
Unlearn me, she said,
and scalpel me from your soul.
then: weep no more tears.
Dex
Watch me fall away
From the feather of your breath
Tremble of your touch.
Frankie
one comforting chest
two safe, enveloping arms -
suddenly she's home.
Dex
Lying in a smile
With a crazy mind that’s wild
Fall into freedom.
Franks
five sweet years gone by
morning tea, love and laughter -
they watched their son rise.
Dex
Like the earth and moon
Fork and spoon,
Middle point between sea and lagoon,
May’s very last minute that surrenders to June,
They dreamt, they knew it would be over too soon
So they promised each other this one last thing
Their love would craft an invisible ring
To bind their embrace
When becoming pure grace
They’d exist like two notes sung as one in a tune.
Dex
I don't know if I can top that.
liar!
'course you can. But it's not about topping - it's about continuing the thing. All you need to do is think of the next stage.
Babaganoosh
That might get a bit (f)risky.
Um
I was thinking along the lines of marriage, kids, retirement or death.
But hey, if you want to go the multiple orgasm route - I'm not gonna complain.
I got you good just now, you know I did.
White picket fence dreams?
You sure know how to turn a girl on.
Dex, that second Heineken's hitting you real hard, now isn't it?
I do, actually.
It's real easy - jy soen haar op 'n lekker plek. And if you live close to Loftus, it won't cost much in petrol money either.
Actually it's Nederburgh brandy. Who knew they made nice stuff too.
Kisses in strange places
There's nothing quite like it. I was once kissed in a banana field, in the bathroom of the State Theatre, on the ankle and the back of my knee. I was undone by all of those kisses.
Sleep tight Dex.
You too Franks
I don't know about the banana field, but I know the back of the knee works.
Sweet dreams.
dex

Morty
I'm extremely flattered.
Help yourself. What is mine is yours.
Denny

Gasboy
That movie - Sliver, I think. It came to me while I was feeding the dogs.
