Hot Fudge

Well since my writers block keeps hunting me I decided to post some old poetry. I wrote this about 2 yrs ago...true story!!!

Hot Fudge

I remember the first time my eyes
set upon your face. I was amazed.
Your lemon toned complexion created
an hypnotizing glaze. I craved everything
about you down to your toes. Perfection.
On a porch that used to belong to me
I sat and watched you and pretended the
wetness forming was caused by the heat.
As much as my body yearned your attention,
I just knew I would never have your affection.

Four years later…


Nothing can explain the tantalizing feeling
I received when our bodies first touched.
You were like hot fudge seeping into cold
vanilla ice cream, your touch slowly claiming
me. In your dark room where the only light
visible came from the TV. that was watching us,
I clenched, holding on to this moment that
I did not want to admit was happening but did
not ever want to forget. As we melted into one
I realize we can not undo the wrong we have done.

The cold air hit me in the face with the same force
I felt when I saw you with her. Even from a distance
I sensed her relevance to you. Her skin similar to yours,
her natural hair racing down her back, she defined beautiful.
But I could not deny the fact that her back laid where mine
didn’t. I remember the night I had spent alone waiting for
you to come home. My feet hit the pavement quickly running
past this reality. I believed my eyes had lied so I tricked myself
to believe it was just sex. And just as your lips
formed to apologize my legs formed to accept.

I had to face the truth. Though it had been weeks
since we last spoke, I wanted to let you know I’d
realized that my heart lived apart from my mind
and had decided to develop feelings. Feelings deeper
than your penetration. Feelings created from your
lies and blinded by your disguise. But you threw
water on that flame kindling inside. So I discarded
what I thought was the perfect match to light it.
I’d let my mind lose this game to my heart,
but just like you it won’t happen again.
