Lyrics, poetry and art all meshed together

HOPELESS ROMANTIC
Love is the tip of his tongue
She knows he holds no truth to his words
Eyes disconnected from his heart
Swears he has seen the light
Thanks to her see-through dress
He sniffs her locs like vodka
Enchanted by her biography
Her footsteps causes thunder
Thunder turns to lighting
Lightning turns to lust
She gets on both knees
Eats his dark earth
Swallows his cum
Closes her eyes
Prays he is the one who will hold them together
She can finally paste her dreams in magazines
Sing this new tune dedicated to men
For this is their world
She waits with patience
When the pressure diminish between her thighs
She prays for more tenderness
Shivers his name like raindrops on martini glasses
He sips her slowly
Takes his time to leave no promises behind
Swims inside her without fingerprints
Pretends not to notice her hopeless lullaby

Today, my brushes are clean, without a hint of color and i'm not sure about tomorrow. I haven't been inspired to paint lately, a lot has been going on with me medically and i'm struggling to stay positive with all the ups and downs i'm experiencing. Writing helps a lot, i'm juggling both art and words, they mesh well especially when you have a lot on your mind.

Your choice of words paint colors in my mind. Translations of not just beauty but deeper things, hard for me to pull up the right words. but then that's why YOU are the poet, right? (smile)

I'm just an author with the audacity to write novels.

Always a good feel when I stop in here.

Gel said...

yes, they do mesh well.
People ask what I do. I say I'm an artist who writes or sometimes I say I'm a writer who paints.
I've followed your blog for a long time, first arriving here under a different blog name, but always enjoying my visit!

Write. Paint. Poetry. Cathy. Yes!

get zapped said...

I'm speechless, really. Letting your poem soak me, and then dry....

I hope your health improves and your yearning for painting returns.

Maybe with the positive events of our country, you'll gain some hope and inspiration. I'm still trying to digest what has occurred. HOORAY!

Hang in there woman!

Peace and love ~GZ
