Dark side of Intimacy
Over the last couple of months I have been exploring Friendship, Intimacy and of course love. Poems on Friendship, Intimacy and Lust have demanded that I write them and today’s poem has been insistent to be written too. Thinking about emotions and feelings has led me to realize that not all relationships are healthy! So, I have written a poem I believe expresses in part, the dark side of relationship…
Temptation
Temptation whispering
Clouding the mind
Crawling inside her
Desperate need
Craving release
Exacting its price
Sleepless night
Thoughts won’t cease
“Give in”, they whisper
Early morning light
Illuminating
Untamed yearnings
Selfish desire
Calling his name
Branding anxious flesh
Heart of stone
Conscience bleeding
Dead to truth
Impossible to deny
Giving into temptation
Lost in betrayal!

Loved it Eaton, you are again showing your love and skills with poetry. My favorite line was the untamed yearnings, and branding anxious flesh. Need to get out my notebook and put those with my \’word\’ collection. ~wink~
I love to see you grow and enjoy your work. E
Woah that was really good, I think you\’ve got more than a nack for this poetry thing ^^ great work
Wow. Excellent, Byz. I just love your powerful word choices. Poetry is such a wonderful outlet for you – to give such emotive glimpses with so few words is a true talent!
