In 2019, I want someone who holds my hand as tightly as they hold my heart; And misses me desperately when we are apart. I want someone who adores their life and family And embraces every moment honestly. I want someone who is silly and can laugh; And yet willing to fight on my behalf. … Continue reading I Want Someone

Don’t Tell Him
Don’t tell him I think about him as much as I do He might get the wrong impression Don’t tell him he makes me smile Or his scent is my obsession. Don’t tell him I’m smitten It’s just a crush Don’t tell him from afar, my heart swells a little It’s too much. Don’t tell … Continue reading Don’t Tell Him
Back It Up
Just know that I want you back Hurry before I slip through the cracks I don’t know where I’m going I can’t stand this plateauing I don’t want to hear you I just want to feel you I don’t care what you say Except you’re coming my way Send chills down my spine Skin on … Continue reading Back It Up

I swore God put you in my sights
Who knew a simple glimpse would spark my soul? I swore God put you in my sights How could I ignore this statuesque woman with the warm smile and cool sashay? Among a crowd of thousands, I couldn't believe my luck when again you passed my way Grabbing my heart, we talked all night And … Continue reading I swore God put you in my sights
Devastated
He stroked her stomach with one hand And with the other, grasped her thigh Her skin so soft lain out before him Muscles over bone quivering and alive “I like the way you move. You are so sexy,” he stated. “Most women don’t... Or don’t know how,” he added. She knew that young woman once … Continue reading Devastated
Forbidden
Each one who circles and swarms eagerly biting into my fruity flesh and flies away does not die... I wonder why? ~Just L (September 25, 2016)
