Claret Addictions

we mingle breath,

 you bleed me with life 

your sweet essence 

running through

 every vein of my being

you exhale and my chest heaves

you taint me with your fluid

 then lick it from my backbone

weakened by pumping reperations 

 i'm illicit liquid at your feet

your scars deepen my pain

i seek out antidotes for 

this affliction 

to alleviate my addiction 

all for naught

under your spell

  whimsy, death and hallelujah

 

poisonous mushroom

 winds slam into me

when your day turns somber

crimson between us adulterates

me muted granite

 my cry of blood tears

afraid to venture into the realm

 of a time when you cut me out

i exist to transpire...

compulsion of desire overrules

need for my own life supply

breathe your scarlet air

 until the dark tsunami

toxoid venom in the veins

 of lustful anticipations

for now i'll sip your blood

 and languish

 in the pools of your desires

under your spell 

of fatal attraction

till you cut/

 the bane

 of my

 existence

Photo, music and words were amazing.
"poisonous mushroom
winds slam into me
when your day turns somber"
Funny how poetry had turn to vision and sound. My next step will be you tube. I like the way you led the reading in this poem. I like the closing line. Thank you for the excellent poetry.

Thanks for reading me stephen.

i just started reading your writing, and might i say you are brilliant. This was dark, and it echos painful desire, wanting what is causing you anguish. I really love this, thanks for sharing

[Frieda P]

Thanks for reading... I'm jazzing on your review to say the least!

[creativequill]

good :)

well this is very waxy Wichita, with swords and the tv in the background playing dark shadows, i love the dark overtones you implode into, the sex is a beast to taunting with feverish thrusts, you bust through climax at the end like the lubrication of rust, only one whom thinks inside your realms of existence can really attune the atonement used...great piece

[Frieda P]

Okay this review made me squirm in my seat a little, now stop that. ;-)
'like the lubrication of rust'...woooo!

[writing mojo]

words tend to do that when used...

[Frieda P]

for sure, i'm in lust with words...did I say thank you muchly

[writing mojo]

you always do...with the words you chose

I first thought this was going to be dirty...sexy? But no..it is so much more. Human love lust and emotion mixed up in poisoned confusion of bodily fluid and blood. We love to live...but sometimes we die by loving too much.

[Frieda P]

Exactly Muse, thanks for the insightful review.

[Muse]

I felt this writing...more than words can show.

[Frieda P]

Okay that just blew my skirt up! ;-)

Don't you love those Marilyn Monroe moments?

[Frieda P]

Ha... now she's my idol!

[SHEEMA HUQ]

oooh a, i see that you have entered the horror/thriller genre with great skill, well done

[Frieda P]

Ha I guess you could say I have! Thanks so much for reading Sheema

[DIVYA]

Are all irresistible ones invariably dark internally...or is it my sole opinion? Coz they leave a trail of tears and pain almost every time.

A greatly sexy poem but full of the promise of pain.
My compliments to you for the complete portrayal of the agony ecstasy relationship. 100/100

[Frieda P]

Doing a happy dance, thanks so much Divya, I do love when someone grasps the madness of my words. Figures it would be you my sister! ;-)

[DIVYA]

That's because we live on the same pages Frieda! ;)
And you are always welcome! :)

[Frieda P]

Perhaps we need a new shiny notebook my friend... ;-)

You my dear have been watching too many vampire and zombie movies lol! It reads well but I find if difficult and I cannot agree with much of the sentiment.

[Frieda P]

I've not seen a vampire movie....read between the lines John.

Cool. Red wine is truly intoxicating . . . especially when you're in love. Sounds like this is a marvelous vintage
