Silent Thoughts...my phantom

It's a good feeling to share poems by other writers I admire for so many different reasons. Like sisters, stargazing is one of my very favorites. She writes with a profound understanding of sensuality as well as the depth of the human spirit. Her poems are as inspiring for me as anyone's. Her ability to make the English language sing like a hymn choir is not only enviable, it proves that real poetry lies not in the poet's words but the poet's heart.

From India, this incredibly talented poet is surprisingly shy about her poetry, and only makes it public in limited ways.  I am so grateful to her for allowing me to share her beautiful music here.  Please leave a comment to let her know what you think.



Silent Thoughts.....my phantom


A simple thought of you and I'm gone again,
Just thinking about your sweet face.
Wishing I could touch your body,
While giving you kisses all over the place.

I'd caress your back,
As you stare into my eyes.
The thought of you here next to me,
Puts my body in a rise.

Your hands all over my skin,
While your tongue traces my lips.
The feeling begins to intensify,
As you move just past my hips.

I imagine you inside of me,
And I let out a slight moan.
The thought of you making love to me,
Begins to set the tone.

Slower in the beginning,
I want to feel your every thrust.
Your kissing my neck now,
As you touch me on my bust.

I run my fingers through your hair,
As you breathe into my ear.
I bite down on my lower lip,
Just wishing you were here.

You pick up the pace now,
And I begin to lose control.
I imagine your face looking down at me,
As the ecstasy takes its toll.

You rub my face with your hands,
And softly kiss me on my cheek.
You can tell just by my smile,
How much the thought of you makes me weak.

I take a breath and open my eyes,
Only to be reminded you're in a different place.
But a simple thought of you and I'm gone again,
Just thinking about your sweet face...

  1. A beautiful poem of yearning and how memories serve us well. I actually forgot it was only her thoughts until I reached the final verse. Very well executed...held me in the moment.
