let me tell you bout a girl i knew,
she helped me find my lust,
and she was helpful as well in the kitchen,
teaching me the nuance of spices and peppering my days with the flavors of a woman.. a woman in love with a man..

walked with her to the ends of the neighbourhood and beyond,
to places only lovers can find and be admitted when found otherwise there is sadness and a feeling of loss..

and yet it was in the friction of the moment that we saw the sparkling torrents of lust and acceptance and fulfilliment and peace....

so back to the kitchen we ran,
with a fervor to duplicate our moment in a dish of delightful stew or chili or a new taco ..

she cooked up a storm of lies and i simmered those lies until they were so dry and the iron skillett was ready to explode.............

i'll never see her again,
yet i know she will never forget,
the moments of lust,
the moments of sweet trust,

i'll go ahead and cry..

for i can never forget..
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    I agree. Absolutely beautiful.
    There was a whole inside his soul a manicure couldn't fill. So he found himself a whore to love while daisies choked in the windowsill. *JK*

    her sister subdued me.. threw me.. to the ground and around we danced, entrenched in hot sweat clutches and crutches the which allowed us to phantom our desire..

    still me for the sweet scent of her is near and I cannot resist her .. for she is mine own desire and I am beholden to the lust brought about by her beauty...and i apologize to none as I am in love with you

    Thanks so much for sharing.
    Throughout the course of our lives,we will meet many great people. Friends, family, strangers who somehow cross your path and enemies; they all have something to teach you. Some will leave deep footprints and others will not. Just be sure to wipe your feet before you step into someone's heart.
