Kelly Curiel Poems

Bittersweet kisses, secret lovemaking
In this love there is no giving, just taking
You look upon me with famished eyes
And I can’t help but fantasize
...

Once in a while
you come to my mind
I think about the times we've had-
dream about times that never were.
...

How I long to touch your skin
Feel your heart pulse from within
Fingertips clutching your spine
Although, my dear, you are not mine.
...

I need your love
to keep me warm
blazing within
to protect me from storms
...

Don't come close to touch my skin
for one stroke stirs me within
a crucible of deep desire
I try so hard to quench the fire.
...

Oh my sweet love, I treasure you so
With a love so deep you will never know
but sometimes we argue, sometimes we fight
we don't always know how to make things right.
...

Once our love was strong,
once you held me dear
once you called my name
longing for me near
...

Love is endless
Love is blind
Love is meek
and love is kind
...

Never knew my heart could take so much pain
but your bitter words wrap my soul in chains

My courage no longer keeps me from hurt
...

I look in your eyes
all I see is kindness and light
your hands are so warm and rough
your embrace so gentle and close
...
