Meloncholy

How would we start this
for the longest time I wondered
I wanted it to be subtle like a hurricane
I wanted to leave me in ruins with the taste
of ash in my mouth

I wanted rain showers for days
storms hurling winds, howling in the heights
mayhem, cyclones, so I could come to you
and take your breath away offering silence

I wanted pain so deep I could not inhale
an agony that comes for dinner and stays
lurking in the guest room or maybe on the couch
I wanted it present, unforgiving and clear

I wanted you to fall through me
spreading like black fever
corrupting me layers deep
so I could lay rosy cheeks with you inside me

I would have waited for you
like death or a beginning where
we could start all over again behind
closed steamed windows in meloncholy

a casual mistress

I dont think I stopped loving you
I just can't remember how I loved you
staring out the window
I go for long walks

I was unwritten
unseen, untouched , scattered
you carried your words in
colorful boxes painted in yellows, reds

I was for the taking, bare
my life heaving beneth my skin
sutured up by holly Mary though
I could feel your breath

you took your time
poised, quiet, deliberately still
your silence so erotic as I saw you
tonging your lips in a hiss

I thought you would drink my skin
I thought you would take me, leaving
your finger prints around my nipples
as you hum sweet in my ears

you took me in a ceremonial fuck
and I learned how to love your penis
your extension in me, the way you expressed
yourself, the way you made a map of my body

your casual mistress, your absent wife
I became, swallowed whole in little morsels
poised, quiet, deliberately still inside me
as I spread my legs holding you in
