My poetry – Page 6 – Behind Closed Doors

The Thunder and The Rain

Another gust of wind rattles the windows

Interrupting the constant reassuring sound of the rain

Thunder rolls in the distance mimicking your laugh as

I startle and wrap my arms around you tighter, head on your chest.

Sleep tries to take over, our hearts beat in sync…

With each other, with the Thunder, with the Rain.

Unable to stop touching, caressing,

Our lips find each other once again.

Your fingers run through my hair, pulling my head back

Exposing my neck to your lips.

Passion once again rolling through my body

Like the Thunder, like the Rain.

Staring into each others eyes, falling deeper,

No longer afraid to let go.

Nails dig into flesh as the flame ignites again.

More love to give, never ending;

Hearts pounding

Like the Thunder, like the Rain.

Lightning explodes across the sky

Our bodies entwined, racing toward

The inevitable, all consuming end.

Wave after wave pass through leaving only us.

No one and nothing else matters

Except the Thunder and the Rain.

Once again resting, sleep threatening.

Still touching and caressing.

Breathing slowing, our hearts once again

Falling into the rhythm

In sync with each other,

With the Thunder, with the Rain.

Forever Love (Always and Forever)

His emerald green eyes burn into hers right from the start.
Why can’t she speak? Why can’t she breathe?
When he looks at her, all she feels
Is the relentless pounding of her heart.
Strange and yet so familiar the way he makes her feel.
It’s as if they’ve been together always and forever.

Too shy to open up her soul;
Scared of rejection and humiliation
She is unable to tell him.
Days turn into weeks.
Months turn into years…
But his eyes and smile still haunt her dreams
And continue to pull at her heart.
Always yearning, forever searching
For those smoldering eyes to pull her in.

Life goes on. People come and go.
But something has always been missing
From a life filled with fleeting moments of joy
And way too much pain.
Always yearning, forever searching
For the one who could make her feel whole.

Lady Fate steps in, no longer leaving it to chance.
She is tired of watching and waiting…
For Her two lost souls to join each other…
For the love that has always been
And forever will be.

She takes control to bring them together
No more waiting, no more searching.
His eyes burn into hers once again…
This time there is a confession, her soul naked and open.
Still afraid of rejection, but willing to take the chance
To be able to stop always yearning, forever searching.
For her heart knows what it wants and what it needs
Always and Forever.
