Together laughing about it
Variety is the added hot spice
Tenderly sucking your partner’s lips
Take a deep breath
and
break
To delicately
compliment her
KISSING YOU
Kissing you:
Feelings immense,
Irresistible,
Crazy, warm, cozy,
Soft, sensual, passionate,
Romantic,
Inexorable,
Slow,
Willfully sinking,
An instance of being intimate.
Tasty and juicy, our sensations progress,
Salacious arousal,
That moment of touch of feelings,
Intense sense of the lesser-known organs.
Our hands roam and get caught up in the search,
An instance of being intimate,
Unexplainable, savorinesses indescribable,
Something that has to be known by oneself.
Such are you my beloved,
Such is your love.
WALK OVER ME
Your feet on my back
A sun embracing the planets
My spine feels its warmth
Skin rubbing skin
Fading, the separateness
Of our beings
Your walk over me
Strengthening each of my cells
Your joyous laughter
And my mild smile
Begets an atmosphere of ecstasy
This moment
IF YOU WERE
If you were an eagle
Soaring high
And I were the valley,
Would you come down to feast?
If you were a blooming flower,
Purple, red, and yellow,
And I the earth beneath,
Would you ever touch me?
If you were the sun
Shining brightly
And I a tree in the forest,
Would you rise to give me warmth?
If you were the waters
In the rivers and in the clouds
And I was just a barren desert,
Would you ever rain on me?
If you were a mighty ocean
With all the turbulent waves
And I a lonely boat amid them,
Would you ever sink me down?
DEAR LOVE
Dear love, to you, what love can I bring?
A fountain to fill your cup
A flute to let pass your breath
A bed sheet to comfort you
A bird to fly and sing with you
But suffer not my eyes and my lips
To hunger for your face
And in thirst for your well
My heart cries in joy to you
I love you, O my beloved
Let countless years pass by and end
I can be a wave and you an endless ocean
A searching bee and you the flower garden
A lowly blade of grass and you the green valley
A faint shade and you the shining lamp
A sweet memory and you the soul possessing it
I don’t know my love’s own depth
Just that this foolish, silly love
Has no beginning and no end
I love you, O my beloved
MY LOVE WITHIN
You are the candle of my eternal soul
Its radiant flame of first, true love.
What is in my heart
can be only seen through caring eyes
and be only known through my breath
No one knows what I possess within
Oh what pain I do endure
to hide my fervor, love, within
Oh what joy, oh what agony
this, the language of gentle love
which can be only sensed and felt
can be only given
and
gained
HER FLYING KISS
The whole night
I take turns in sleep
Right and left
On my back and sides again
A gentle breeze passes
over my face and body
It is my beloved’s song,
Her flying kiss
FIRST SMOOCH KISS
The first smooch kiss
A spring night
Moonlit pastoral lake
Dancing elm, oak, and pear
Mild breeze
Courting song of crickets and katydid
Secrecy and silence
Standing close, smiling, and stirring
Our necks tilted on the right
One hand behind and one front
Thumbs caressing the face
And fingers
releasing the locks of your hair
Our hands massaging behind and front
The adorable landscape of love
Bump and breasts
Belly and waist
Crossed legs
Delirious smell of the skin
Taste of your rosy lips and sweet saliva
The taste of one another
Outer eyes closed, inner open
My upper lip between your lips
Your lower lip between mine
Rubbing, pressing, sucking, kissing
Small and big, short and long
Goose bumps and blushing
Breathtaking, timelessness, breathless
Uncaptured, indefinable moment!
YOU IGNITED A FIRE
Last time we met and gazed at one another
You ignited a fire
and left!
You went away to your business
Leaving this poor soul in misery and longing
You ignited a fire
and left!
I waited for you until darkness
You came late and found me unconscious
The pain was so intense, dear
What else could I have done?
You ignited a fire
and left!
Just by your one touch I was revived
Putting my face to your breast
Crying like an infant, I sobbed
You ignited a fire
and left!
You went away to your business!
RED MOON
When the long day ends
And the bashful evening comes with the moon
Your memory then arrives
And my heart cries in secret aching for you
O my love, I love you
CHERRY BLOSSOM
I wanted you so long
I always sang this song
You came along in autumn
I bloomed like a cherry blossom
Your presence put me in awe
I was out of all my senses
Your magnetic force
pulled me close
to your gravity of love
You smiled and came closer
I could not stop
myself to be yours
You teased me everywhere
with your fingers
we had some sweet giggles
Your lips so soft
your body so attractive
We made love
I felt that even if I die
I am still alive
TRUE LOVE
The arousing emotional fiber of first love
An exhilarating love at first sight
A bittersweet painful passion
An overwhelmingly deep love
Gentle as a summer gust
Fierce and chilling as the ice cliffs
That is the way your love is to me
Universal as life itself
THIS IS ALL I DO NOW
I look for your face wherever I go
Whenever I close my outer eyes
Only you I see
Only you I feel
I am bewildered and mad in this love
Catching your eye
Writing you letters
<
br /> Bathing your body
Sending you flowers
This is all I do now
SOUL MATE
It is in love that this world makes sense
It is in love, this life’s essence
My soul mate, O my love, my friend
Together our lives now securely blend
We are together in our joys and grief
In this journey of meadows and of peaks
O soul mate, what a mystery unknown
To us that in this deeper love is shown
ONE SOUL
We should meet as if
We have never met before
Then depart as if not departed
What a mystery
One soul
Two bodies
Whispering the songs of love
Into each other’s ears
COME NAKED
In this river of wine
I love my love with love
Never known before
Don’t walk into this river of hope
wearing a robe
You don’t take a good bath
wearing your gown
Come naked
In this garden
Without clothes, without figs
I am glad
that you found me
How pure a flame now burns
This thirst
with which I burn
LOVE FANTASIES
The heart-shaped, red, hanging lights on our wall;
I see you in your full existence,
with all your pure skin,
all naked, with all your appeal.
The shiny, silky-smooth skin all bright and red;
I sense you, I touch you to devour
the deliciousness in you.
I come closer, dripping your body with my wet hair;
I suck in your honeycomb;
I taste the sweetness.
My honey, oh so sweet.
Your honey, oh, sweet honey—it’s one of a kind.
I drink it—all drunk with full pleasure, I feel total ecstasy.
Then I ride like a cowgirl to reach as far as I can be.
I hustle, I shake, I grind, I wind, I go deep
where there is only one path and only one way to be.
This road is an endless road; miles away it can lead.
It will be the road where you will find me,
and I will be riding on it endlessly!
ONE, TWO
One bed
Two lovers
One pillow
Two heads
Two minds
One thought
One blanket
Two pair of legs
Two bodies
One heart
Two tongues
One kiss
WAIT FOR ME
Wait for me
Eyes closed, dancing
to the rhythm of eros
Where heart and heart meet
where the soul
dances with the soul
There
then
A deeper closeness emerges
All unknowns become known
We bloom into the darkness
Merged with existence
Experiencing the totality of the whole
Into the beautiful coming
MAKHMAL AND KASTOORI
Two lovers meet
One day, in secrecy
Hearts warm as a pillow
of makhmal
The lover says to his love
“You are a pearl buried in the
ruins of the world
People come and go
they watch
But they cannot smell the kastoori
They laugh, eat, and joke with you
But they don’t see your heart”
The mirror slips from her hand
It falls down
She cries and with shivering hand
She says
Tear apart the wall
You’ll not need any windows anymore
makhmal: velvety leaves
kastoori: musk
PICNIC SEX
Holding hands
Kissing in public
Giving sexy looks
Holding each other close
Walking arm in arm
Naked in the woods
Picnic sex
YOU MEAN EVERYTHING
The innocent
Smile
of your face, darling
is more luminous
than ten thousand suns
Your one smile
is worth
the whole world
Your love
has driven me
insane
And
to tell you
all my pains
all my love
is a gift of love
far too expensive
Your presence
means
everything
A PERFECT EVENING
Night comes slowly
I am anxious to meet you
Your lights are still on
I wander outside in the moonlight
You walk out
In a flowing gown
Turquoise
Just perfect for this night
The moon gives enough sight
For me to watch your eyes
I hand you a wrapped surprise
You kiss me in return
Touching and yearning for
each other in a loving way
Kissing when people aren’t looking
We walk away
from your home
FIERY CREATURES
Embracing your body close,
Holding you tight with my warm hug,
The warmth of your body
heat in the air all around as fog,
The burning fire in our senses
All ready to consume us.
Our bodies dancing and rubbing,
Tossing each other zig and zag—
It feels magical; it feels mystical;
all of it,
all of us,
under the love rug,
Fiery creatures in the dark.
SEDUCTION
Him:
Do you want to share my ice cream
play footsie?
Inch by inch
I’ll climb up
You eat
Her:
I want to go horseback riding
By candlelight
With a bottle of wine
squeezing with my thighs
I want a stallion
NAKED BATH
At first
I saw you
in a public fountain
bathing
A body so complete
I melted immediately in your love
This enchanting alchemy
I became ensnared by you
Wanting to adore you, my love
in secret and in silence
Come follow me tonight
In the moonlight
By the river
Leave your clothes on the bank
I will teach you romance
I will show you love.
I LOVE IT
I love it
When you hold me
From behind
With your hands caressing
my back, holding
Where it is tiniest
I am thrilled
As you throw me on the bed
And press on me
On the wall
I see your dark shadow
Riding a horse
You move your fingers
Up and down
Rubbing my pear-shaped bum
When you kiss me
On my neck
Your hands squeezing my breasts
I love it
I absolutely love it
Scream my exaltations.
WAKE UP
You tickle me
In ea
rly morning
And gently whisper
Wake up
Into my ears
You slide me down
Into the wetness
Even before
I am awake
MORNING LOVE
You make a tent of
blanket
to cover my face
from the morning sun
and watch me breathe
When I move or growl
you kiss me with a smile
All this time
while I am still dreaming
you already know
what you are making
for breakfast
You gently stroke my body
With the feeling of a new touch
You don’t wake me up
but arouse me from my sleep
Caressing gently all over
you hug me close to your
heart
We make love
Even before we wake up
for the day
STANDING GLORY
Fingers move
On his
naked ribcage
And I get to see
what I need
Standing straight
SOUND OF WETNESS
At first glance,
it won’t slide.
Then, the
sound of wetness
proves me wrong.
Early morning,
our neighbors are awakened
to the song of
two love birds.
CUDDLE NAKED
We cuddle naked
On a lonely island, in the sea,
Where our bodies press each other
On the sand, under the tree.
With sound of splashing waves,
Your arms tangle me, legs ready to heave.
Where we make love to each other,
My body under yours, we are so free.
BEAUTY BEYOND WORDS
Let the king come to the bride’s chamber
And charm all her friends and chambermaids.
Let the princess walk to the knight’s castle
And mesmerize all the guards and pickets.
O where such beauty, lo, where such fate,
When our will is feeble and our love so faint
TONIGHT I WANT
Tonight
I want to make love with you
With chocolate and cream
I want to rub
I want to eat my fill
Until my goddess feels
She has been worshiped
fully
