Romance, Seduction, Erotic Poetry
Thump-Thump… Thump-Thump…
A toe-curling bodice-ripper
This is another poem I published previously on Medium, about a year ago. It got very little response. I’ve deleted the old post. Now, let’s try this again…
I’m not overly fond of erotic poetry. It’s not really my forté. In point of fact, when I began this poem, I thought I was writing something entirely different… another poem about pain. What came out, though, was entirely and delightfully unexpected.
Love will fill the silences. There is nothing louder than that inner cadence of two hearts beating in stereo.
Thump-Thump… Thump-Thump…
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Drum beat of sorrow
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Rapine devouring of tomorrow
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Heaving sighs of heartache
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Overflowing heartbreak
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Beating heart enflamed
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Waiting to be tamed
Thump-thump… thump-thump… You gaze into my eyes
Thump-thump… thump-thump… And make my heart rise
Thump-thump… thump-thump… That look… my mouth stutters
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Your gaze… my heart flutters
Thump-thump… thump-thump… The curling of my toes
Thump-thump… thump-thump… A kiss in passion’s throes
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Your scent… so strong and warm
Thump-thump… thump-thump… My every sense you swarm
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Bodies tangle… rush and fumble
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Hearts and limbs together tumble
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Sated, lying face to face
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Held tight in your embrace
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Your embrace is my safe harbor
Thump-thump… thump-thump… My world’s become your ardor
Thump-thump… thump-thump… On this path which we’ve begun
Thump-thump… thump-thump… Our hearts now beat as one
