Description The gentle tug at my hair,
the soft whisper of breath on my ear,
all let me know you're there,
all let me know you're near.

Fingertips work circles on my spine,
stroking and kneading and waking;
you're not mine,
but you have me shaking.

I'm cursed inside this sensitive skin,
driven to longing,
but I can't let it win.
I don't want to be wronging
the others around me.
I'm nowhere near as strong
as I need to be.

Hey!!! I decided to check out some of your stuff since your message really caught my interest! This was a great, short little poem. I wish I could write something like it. I don't have even a modicum of poetic talent but you do and it really shows.
I'll read some of your other stories as soon as I get a chance.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked this poem. It's one of my own favorites

On poetry... just keep trying it. It wasn't so long ago that I sucked at it, too

>_< Ehck, I'll try but no promises...
But I think you should definitely keep going.

Thank you I'm glad someone enjoys it! My sister keeps telling me I write stuff to slit your wrists to... but that maybe because she usually only sees the angry, you-hurt-me, angsty ones, lol

Nahh, I wouldn't call it wrist slitting stuff. But it's definitely deep and moving.

No, I really have some stuff that's dark enough for it, I think, looking back. But at least I wrote about it and vented instead of slitting my wrists... I supose that is the plus.
I'm glad you find it deep and moving.

Dark is pretty good to, though I prefer uplifting or funny poems. Ah well, I'm still sure they're all great!

Mostly, I have dark poems, sappy love poems, and it-was-a-great-idea-at-the-time poems
I'm kidding. Some of them are fun poems; some of them are from when I was in a pretty dark place. I have a ton of poems that are love-oriented, though. Not just sexual love (although, there are those, lol) but just about every kind of love there is!
