Fleeting Glimpse

She shut her eyes,
drowning in desire. This was
beyond compare and she found only
a fleeting glimpse
of alarm.

Reckless

Posted on September 22, 2022September 22, 2022 by Erin B.
I am reckless
in my life.
The rush of each thrill
burns brightly,
searing me in a desire
for distraction
as a desperate attempt
to feel something.

Happy

Posted on July 9, 2022August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
"Happy" isn't what she hoped it would be,
love is a mystery - 
desire a depth haunted by
inevitable imperfections.

Passing Fancy

Posted on June 1, 2022August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
I have too much desire
unfulfilled.
I couldn't stand being a passing fancy...
and you weren't having any
of me.

My Heart Bled

Posted on January 23, 2022August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
My heart bled for you,
and yet it was absolutely hopeless,
but I was willing to hope that you
could just acknowledge such a possibility
of desire for me.

Fierce Longings

Posted on July 10, 2021August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
The fierce longings
of his heart was alien.
He had grown to realize he brooded
a cynical image of
the world.
A figure came to him in sleep,
her face veiled but desire
traversed his memory.

Sin Loving Soul

Posted on April 7, 2021August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
Dusk had come tumbling
into a gloomy night,
the squalid streets waiting for
a sin loving soul
in quest of a call by desire.

I desire
smouldering passion
a strong, brilliant man
full of a love
most complex.

He knew very well
he would not have stopped for
anything less desirable
than she.
