I still cling to you
For
fear of drowning
In
your arms
I
feel secure
But
it’s an illusion
Its
false security
Despite
your deceit
And betrayals
I still cling to you
Instead
of swimming free
Not
for fear of drowning
But
fear of being alone

I STILL CLING TO YOU
THE WONDROUS BEAUTY
The wondrous beauty
Of your pale white skin,
That seductive landscape
Pure as exotic silk
Fresh as winter snow
And as cold as your heart
GRACILE
Moving Gracefully
Like a snow-white swan
On a glassy lake.
You came into my life
Like an angel
Descending from heaven
On pure white wings
You changed me forever
But your gracile elegance
Mesmerized me
And blinkered me
To your true nature
Because hidden from me
Beneath the surface
And belying the grace
You were no angel
SILENCE IN THE MEADOW
Silence in the meadow
As we lay amidst the flowers
Young lovers entwined
In the moonlit hours
When love is keenly felt
We succumb to cupids’ powers
But as night gives way to day
The love we feel is ours
LOVES FIRST STING
In my autumn days
I fondly remember
Loves first sting
And how my heart sang
Loves perfect melody
In loves sweet spring
AT THE NUPTIAL ALTAR
A girl in virgin white
An intangible essence
A trembling creature
Wantonly pure
At the nuptial altar
Bearing passions blush
Blooming on her cheeks
Belying her innocence
Her thoughts portraying
Through lustful overtones
The girls growing want
Then without regret
A kiss preludes
Innocent stripped away.
And a woman remains
