Serenade me but don’t
Catch a grenade for me
You know the button
To press
And I crave for more like a glutton
As you slowly undress
Me, I catch my breath
At the silkiness of your
Cloak
The whole length of me
Strains to be in you
I melt like butter
In the crook of your arm
I settle aligning my form
With yours
Ever so steadily
You lead me into
The beauty of the gift
Of meeting
Skin to endless skin
We chase our dreams
And come home
Together.

It felt like the first verse was detached from the other parts of the poem…but I like the simplicity of the language. Leaves little to the imagination.
Em…welcome home.
actually seun, the first two lines was meant to sound detached, more like a “lets get down “no need for sweet nothings….once that was out of d way, the show cud begin! thanks!
Were you inspired by Bruno Mars song in writing this? Would have been nice to mention that. I love the flow and the lines are hot yet cloaked.
thanks myne whitman, yes, the part about the grenade was inspired by bruno mars song, i wanted to paint a picture of two lovers who are real and sincerely revelled in the beauty of their attraction to each other…dont catch a grenade for me, is simply, dont promise me that yu will die for me, just serenade me….and lets get down. P.S i would like to read your books.
*coughs*
Is there anything else to say? It is “straight-forward” enough.
I like the flow.
i got so carried away that when the poem ended I wanted to fight you. simply beautiful… welcome home
