I wander to many places these days in
my mind is filled with distractions in
earthy erotic sensuous thoughts in
delightful turmoil flooded in
memories daydreams in
nighttime kisses in
wonder in
you?
 
thank you

I was reading through saved emails from many years back. I had a short but intense relationship which started through written exchanges -to the physical - and said our gradual goodbyes, often through verse.

I have a few more from that time I may post. I will only post mine. I have no wish to go through submission publishing process.

If this is the wrong arena then point me to the correct thread.
 
the elastic space
now taut
will snap back
collide in our embrace
your cunt in my face
with words intense
offered in defence

words intense
will swirl my mind
fuck and grind
lust of love
love of lust
heart on heart
hand in hand

rich will time
be of our souls
bound tight
fighting flight
wash away
with words
our doubt

our worlds apart
minds yet dance
round sexual trance
knowing at heart
love can snap
back in place
or away

not young
not old
but late at start
a relationship beginning
yet matters of life
will need attending
totally unyielding

we will come and go
hearts embrace
hearts in dance
hearts on hold
while matters of life
need attending
unyielding

what we offer
comes with a past
chancing everlasting
yet protecting our hearts
maybe that's ok
as we grow old?
is lasting, just too much to ask

lets deal with our matters
we'll protect our hearts
drink from our love
while it lasts
need not get drunk
just enjoy the dance
when space offers us chance

do you intend to do further work on them?
 
not sure yet

As mentioned they just represent a very intense exchange. They really should be seen as the narrative they represent - complete with responses.

The partner referred to, who was publishing poetry and producing art works, suggested working collaboratively. My efforts at the time were merely a response to her highly charged writings, much as our short relationship was, very raw with high sexual intensity. When finally I thought it would be interesting to release these exchanges I can not track her down. I don't have permission to include her writings.

Would I write like that now, probably not. While comments or criticism are free to be given, I think I'll leave these for what they were, one side of a dialogue between two people. The writings were sometimes simplistic and basic, but had an urgency of two people desiring love and release yet finding life's events getting in the way. We were both using the relationship as a distraction from life much as others' may use alcohol or recreational drugs..
 
first touch of fingertips
caress of her writings
the curve of her back as she leaves my bed
beauty that the pain did not steal
scent of the scarf that remained when she left
her honesty her eyes
the love she gifts her child
a lingering look reaching from far
touching her neck as i draw her near
the door she reopened
a brush of lips near my ear
the door she reopened
the door she opened
