Out of Control (She Wants Revenge)

the morning after
my lips are sore
from your kisses;
but it’s a pain I’ll gladly endure.
in fact..
i. want. more.

Where Have You Been (Rihanna)

After Whiskey..
I can smell you in my hair-
It has this odd ability to hold on to moments.
To capture memories by locking in scents;
Whether it be my natural curls
Or manufactured straightness.
Today my hair is holding onto you
And telling the story of last night.
So every time my hair falls into my face
And I get a whiff of that scent-
It’s almost like you never left.

Tear You Apart (She Wants Revenge)

Unforeseen Anticipation

I remember that first night-

When we stayed up to meet the sun.

And your hands grazed

Up and down my legs

As I lay them across your lap.

[So simple yet seductive]

I didn’t know then

How long it would be

Before your hands were

On my body again.

Your lips on my neck

Kissing shivers down my spine;

Hands around my waist

Pulling me closer.

Tongues colliding,

Lip biting

And..

Yeah.

Your touch was long overdue.

Domino (Jessie J)

flight of fancy

strong arms

and soft lips..

come wrap me up

and give me a kiss.

squeeze me tight

and kiss me harder

[ it’s okay if your hands start to wander…]

hold me like you never want to let go.

and call me baby like you mean it;

even if you don’t.

Kiss My Lips (Dev)

Wishful Thinking

The thought of kissing you excites me.

And it feels like forever that

I’ve been waiting for our lips to touch;

For our tongues to (passionately) dance together.

I want to explore your mouth.

Find all the right places

And make your entire body tingle.

Gently biting your lip as we start to pull away

From one another.

But I come back in to kiss those lips

Just one .

Two . .

Three more times . . .

Can you feel me smiling?

Why Can't I (Liz Phair)

So Much..
So much I want
To say to you,
Too many reasons
Why I can’t..
Imagination runs wild with
Thoughts of unattainable things;
Actions that can never happen.
I wonder why.
Why you ?
Why me ?
Why now ?
It almost doesn’t seem fair
For you to have those
Eyes I can’t stare into
And
Those lips I can never kiss.
I know I shouldn’t tell you this
But..
I feel like I’m falling.

And I’m scared.

Addicted (Kelly Clarkson)

…And I’m An Addict

I’m having withdrawals.

My heart has become addicted

To your love.

I crave that connection to…

Another human being.

And after much consideration

I’ve realized it’s not exactly you

That I’m missing.

It’s what we had before life got in the way.

That thing that used to show glimpses of itself-

Happy flashes that never seemed to last too long.

I miss the possibility that we could have that again;

Maybe have even more.

But your “love” was bad for me.

So I had to give it up.

[I had to give you up.]

It wasn’t making me feel good anymore,

Just going through the motions out of habit.

Chasing the dragon-

Always trying to feel that first high again.

We both know

We’ll never get that back.

You said it best,

“We need to detox from each other.”

Well, so far it’s been 31 days.

Don’t I get a chip for that?
