Hazel Kaye

you won\'t read my poems

I will write you poetry

in the journal on my nightstand

that you will never read.

 

But you will feel the words

as I trace them with my fingertips

along the curves of your neck

and the lines of your body

I have yet to discover.

 

You will feel

the passion I write with

a I press it firmly into your lips

with mine

and draw inspiration

from your breath

 

and you will come to know 

the soft fondness

that lust becomes

when you see the depths and fathoms 

of devotion in my eyes,

and it finally feels

like home to you.
