LaylaJune 10 Aug 2015 Spectacle Roaring rushing in my earsMy head is filled with soundIn two smooth pulls my clothes have droppedIn an untidy mound You are sitting on the bedYour eyes honed in on meRiveted in two blue beamsLiking what you see Perfumed warmth drifts in the roomAs I lift my hairLong and darkAnd with a twist,Secure it on my head The air is cool upon my neckAnd tingles through and throughMy softness becomes tipped in hardNow on display for...
LaylaJune 6 Aug 2015 Intruder Back again My god! I can’t believe it!How did you get in here?I thought I had securitySeal the perimeter I knew you might be comingYou’re never gone for longSo I took precautionsAnd I see I wasn’t wrong Did you sweet-talk someone?Or forge a master key?Did you scale the buildingTo reach the balcony? Now that you're discoveredI need to make you goWill you do it quietlyOr will you tell me "no?" I'd hate to threaten using forceBut it’s...

LaylaJune 28 Jul 2015 Drifter Not lost Somewhere, I lost itBut I’m glad it’s goneNo need to fretOver what I’ve done wrong There is a freedomWhen you don’t need to tryA certain freedomTo just say good-bye No effort neededNothing missedLight of heartContented to drift Fine if you’re hereBut not for too longFine if you’re goneI’ll just move on How did I get here?Not really sureWill this go on?Will my freedom endure? Are there othersWho feel this way?Nothing compe...
LaylaJune 25 Jul 2015 Threshold I wasn't preparedTo love youI wasn't preparedTo stay I've tucked and I've rolledMyself throughThe lion's shareOf my days One foot out the doorPurse in my handKeeping all parts of me safe Watching for signsThat things have gone southReady to make my escape So let me stand At the thresholdStill inBut not far from out Accept I'm my bestClose to freedomRather than harnessedIn doubt.
LaylaJune 22 Jul 2015 BHH In the pink Before the change of ownersThat was where we’d playBack in a pink bungalowAlong a winding trail With signposts to direct youOr you would soon be lostWe made our little love nestSurrounded by the stars Ropes and fine dark chocolateA camera always nearFar enough awaySo no one else could hear A drink first at the Polo LoungeTwo guests from out of townOur eyes just on each otherRegardless who’s around Fallen out of favorWe’ve...
LaylaJune 20 Jul 2015 Inked Ink me You made love To my tattoo So drawn in By the vivid colors Tracing and kissingThe loops and swirlsOf red blossoms Blown on purple winds Up and downPetals scatteredAcross my body Searching And finding them hiddenOn tender skin Surprising bursts of colorAgainst pale softness Envisioning meExposed Inked by needleGritting teethClenched fists Replaced nowBy permanent marksAnd pleasured sighs.
LaylaJune 18 Jul 2015 Catapult We don't really fall in love They say that people fall in loveI beg to disagreeIt’s really more a catapult:You’re launched, then flying free Swirling, twirling through the airThe world around you spinsLike nothing you have ever seenAt heights you’ve never been You catch your breathSuch beauty!Surrounds you and withinYour happiness just radiatesYou feel your life begin Whether you are young or oldThe newness is so crispEverything is wonderfulEverythin...
LaylaJune 17 Jul 2015 Stalemate And on it goes . . . We circle likeWe’re packing heatSlow movement inThen quick retreatNot knowing if we need to drawWill there be peace or all out war? We forward feintUneasy laughThen back awayBut don’t relax I look at youYou look at meNot knowing what the other seesYou could be friendI could be foeContinuing our strange limboYet neither makes the choice to fleeAnd so we circle, endlessly.
LaylaJune 15 Jul 2015 Shame It’s such a shameWe never touchedOr heard the other speak It’s such a shameWe fell apartBefore we got to meet It’s such a shameWords on a screenWere all the love we knew And such a shameThose words are goneIn cyberspace, with you.
LaylaJune 14 Jul 2015 Unposed You told me "get the camera"And I felt such a thrillYou spoke with calm authorityI handed it to you You took the camera in one handAnd turned your head my wayThose bluest eyes were steadyAs the shutter snapped away You touched me as you wantedI was at your commandElectrified, yet languidEmboldened by each glance So serene your countenanceThough lust blazed in your eyesYou drew me to you by my wristThe camera set aside How...
LaylaJune 12 Jul 2015 JabberWalk It's not over . . . yet Vipers slither from your lipsTwisted into clever quipsFueled by petty vengeful ireHow is it that you haven’t tired? Every chance to take a swipeThere you are with caustic bitesBriefly do your serpents restRetract their fangs, coiled in their nestsBut never are they still for longSpring forth anew, to right the wrongsThey perceive were heaped on youAnd help to heal the gaping wound I don’t lash out; I hold my tongueYet sti...
LaylaJune 11 Jul 2015 Dream Man Don't wake me Shatter my illusionsTrample on my dreamsShow me that the you I seeIs not a real being Be a thoughtless dullardAn egotistic cadBe the one about whom IWas warned of by my dad Break my heart in piecesUtter only liesCheat and flirt behind my backWhile I sit home and cry Instead you are a wonderAn ongoing delightSupportive, entertainingAdoring, sexy, bright You’re there each time I need youYou bear my lashing outYour smile is...
LaylaJune 9 Jul 2015 Summer Night Companion piece to Your Heat, and second in a series of four poems: Cold, Heat, Dark and Light Come and love me in the heatOn sultry summer nightsAfter that fire opal sunHas slid down out of sight Then we’ll sneak out to the poolBarefoot on cementHolding warmth that earlierWould burn against our skin But now the feel is sensualToasty, rough and hard The pungent smell of juniperWafts throughout the yard Mixed with jasmine blossoms Heady in the heatWe free our bodies from our clothesAnd let ourselves be seen Then s...
LaylaJune 4 Jul 2015 Tracks Sometimes, getting away is the only answer Holed up in this townWith a one-track mind I’m thinking only of you I’ve got to get outI can’t stay a day more I’m thinking only of you The places, the streetsIn this town Drive me wild They all have me thinking of you So I’m leaving, I’ll goIf I stay, then you’ll knowI’m thinking only of you And I’ll let you sayThat I’m running away But I’m thinking only of you Yet wherever I amThere’ll be timesYou’ll be sure I’...
