Sex to Making love


Sex, okay sex. 

on an air mattress

with a guy I just met.

ripe at sweet sixteen. 

then it happened ,

the next day came 

He was still there

in my inbox

asking 

for me.

Making great love

on an actual bed

with mine truly

a bit wiser at seventeen

as his girlfriend 

and much more to be

at least that's how

I hope it to be

Puffing Pachyderm

Just lost; occasionally looking for an unclear something or overwhelmed nothing. Mostly distracted trying to chase the wind, an equally impossible task. Never prepared, it slips over and under all about the room never taking shape or forming thought. Scared to move past predictable, dreading the inevitable reoccurrence of the past. Personal torture undefined by tomorrows ideals or today's good fortune. Every nightmare rooted in yesterdays folly. Fear a weight to the heart spawned from multitudes of misinformed decisions. Roaming lost forever.
