The taste still lingers on my lips
I feel it's presence there
A forbidden kiss
...

Rose on the cross...
The thorns he bore for you and me
Stained red with his blood
Bloomed so beautifully...
...

So much pleasure
To be gained
From a little ball
And a simple game
...

Burning desire
Just dance
A need so intense
Words cannot describe
...

Funny, joker, prankster
You have a natural talent
For making people laugh
Though you do not always do so intentionally
...

This is the story of a kiss
Sometimes heated with passion
Leaving lovers hot and wanting more
At times gentle and sweet
...

Chilled winds bite my face
Begging me to cry
Yet I shed not a tear
For fear of myself
...

Can I ask you a question?
Why me?
Why choose me?
I don't try to kid myself
...

Sitting in my closet, not doing any harm.
Along came Uncle Vernon and took me by the arm.
He handed me to Aunt Petunia and rang a little bell.
I was full of dread, thinking my life was going to be hell.

Note: Very long, don't read if you don't like long poems...

The bond between us
Weakens constantly
...

Call from a friend
Haven't talked to him in months
How long has it been now?
I no longer can tell
...

Walking down the road of life
Don't know where I'm going
Just know that today
I have ta go somewhere new & fun
...

The prayers of the heart
Are not often heard
By the ears of mortal man
But their cries ring out
...

Can you feel me?
My twin
I know you are out there
Somewhere
...

Scared
I'm scared
Fear consumes me
Darkness all around me
...

I kissed the lone wolf and tamed him
I asked the smart guy for a kiss
When he open his mouth for an explanation
I shut him up with my lips
...

So absorbed in your projects
Testing out new theories everyday
Trying out a new experiment
Science is your one true love
...

The best poem ever written
Was written by me
It was sparked by something phenomenal
A flash of insight I never knew
...

You were like a dog
Loyal and friendly to a fault
That is what I liked most about you
...

You were the smartest guy in class
Though few people knew it
Always tired, always sleeping
Straight through the lectures in class
...
