Your words transport me
New worlds open and I step out
Reaching for you to lead me
I am afraid even as you pull me in
Insatiable for new experience
Willingly I strip my defenses
Standing before you naked
Your words wash over me like silk
Catching on my rough edges
Ravenous for your touch
Gently your fingers trace my shape
Following curves I had forgotten
Raising hope I am enough
Soothing fears as light explodes
Β Voracious in my demands
Catch me as I fall
Knees weak and heart faltering
Your smile is predatory
You lift me up with words
Insatiable for more
Never enough
Valentine, 30-July-2014
Another brilliantly and clever use of words in your tantalising teasing pose.. π Great Val..
I am getting there with remembering how to play with words in poetry. It is a long forgotten joy to write, I am taking great pleasure in these. Thank you for reading and enjoying them.
I love the words, and your
deliciously sweet picture also π
Did someone say awesome?
Well this piece of poetry and your
photograph are definitely that
and so much more π Lovely…

thank you so much my friend. There is a story behind the picture, someday I might tell it.
When that time comes I will be happy to read it, you are a lovely woman Val, and exquisitely beautiful in every way. Have a very nice Sunday my dear friend π

Such passion in you words, Val.
There is some of that Deb, it is inspired and thus part of my soul.
Very nice imagery…especially the forgotten curves. I second the commenter who mentioned needing a cold shower!
Thank you Mark. I am happy when the images are potent.
Raw passion comes through in these verses.
Yes, that and something else Ian.
***Raising hope I am enough***
Yes. You. Are.
LOVE love love that photo of you, Val!!!! xxxxxxxx
Thank you my lovely friend.
It is a conundrum always, how these words flow out, seeking passion and confirmation
Of course you are enough!! I also concur with the ‘Never enough’ at the end π A beautiful composition Valentine.
Thank you Madhu, I am learning as I go the boundaries of the world expand as we raise up our arms. I am dumbstruck in wonder. π
“…Following curves I had forgotten…”
Forgetting one’s femaleness is heartbreaking.
This is truly moving, Val.
Thank you Tess, it is interesting each person finds something different in this one. I am happy you were moved, you are right though forgetting is heartbreaking, but remembering it is joyous.

*grin* (remembering)
This one really speaks to the risks of love and the fears we have about it. Bravo!
I hadn’t seen quite in those terms, it was simply something from the heart as they all are. Thank you for see more.
I love the pic, Val! And, I really get this….it’s passionate, sensual and vulnerable. Wonderful writing, friend! XOXO-Kasey
Thank you Kasey, there is a story to that picture and I love it also. I am glad you like this one, it is inspired by someone special to me.

You sound very inspired and like a woman in a good place these days, Val. Keep rocking it!
Thank you, it is inspired and I do feel as if I am in good place right now. I think I will continue right here for now.

Excellent play across images. This one is even visually exciting. Love it. β€ And you, for that matter.

Thank you, from you this is high praise. Love you back as always
You are good at this! …. and once again, I’m off for a cold shower.
Thank you I am glad you enjoyed it.

I like the flow of this, Valentine.
“Raising hope I am enough”
Indeed, you are enough!
I am learning this, that I am enough. Just me without the trappings.
Amen! Unadulterated and unfiltered YOU.
Yet another sensual post Valentine wow :O
Thank you for the Wow, Andy. These, they come from somewhere else in my head (heart) or somewhere. π
Keep em coming Valentine π π
Finally….. π Very good. Very emotional in a good way. Finally.
Yes, I know. I am slow and deliberate. There is still one more on paper and still a story percolating. All in good time My, all in good time.
