FFF- Devotions
Daily devotions easily done
words spoken, rituals said
mind wanders over the bed
smelling his scent in my head
Daily devotions easily ignored
words bite and hearts bleed
promises shattered, broken creed
wondering why he did the deed
Daily devotions easily spoken
words hang in stale air
meanings lost, blind stare
did he ever really care
Daily devotions easily forgotten
dried kisses linger on the cheek
lips tendered by love never speak
affairs end after their peak
Daily devotions easily done
hearts soften
misdeeds forgotten
daily devotions easily devoted

Poetry is hard for me, and it usually brings me to a dark, sorrowful place. When I was in school one of my creative writing professors wanted me to go to an open mic night to read a few poems I’d written for class. Of course I chickened out and didn’t go. I’m a writer…naturally I’m an introvert.

I love words. I love writing them down, I love reading them, and I love creating stories with them. Erotic Romance is my weapon of choice when deciding how best to spend my time. I read it, I write it and when at all possible I live it!
