A lone traveler in a lonely world
Tired of being all by himself, he finds comfort
Gathering his thoughts, he puts behind the endless road
(If only for the night)
And prepares himself for the long journey that lay ahead
"How do you want me…"
She cooed
"Do you want me to______"
“Shh”
He said, letting her go
"I just want you to hold me… gently… all night long."
He could have had whatever pleasure he wanted…
Being held made him feel almost alive…

about 5 yearsSorry to hear about your lifes drama... I heard it said once that a person needs new experiences... they draw out something that sleeps deep inside of us that seldom awakens...I pray you find the parts of yourself that have lain dormant and experience for yourself both the passion and tenderness that God intended for you...

about 5 yearsI agree completely. I just went through 4 1/2 year divorce which ended up in separation. I was married for 40 years to a sociopath. So I very much understand how that would feel. I was never good enough for him and believe me had I had a different nurturing partner I would be such a different person. He would belittle me one minute and then expect me to jump in bed with him. How does one do that? The worst part is he never saw how he took my femininity away from me. That's all I wanted was to be held etc. Glad I'm rid of him. But I am not even thinking about dating because of trust issues ( he cheated on me) and I need too find out who I am. I need my independence.

about 5 yearsThank you all my poems are parts of me that I have explored... I love them like my children and when certain emotions feel neglected I pull them out and play with them to let them know they are loved... that they are accepted... and that they are safe...This one is neglected too often. As a provider and nurturer of my physical children I have found that when I do get to enjoy the company of a woman they tend to focus on the passion... I cannot blame them... its certainly a powerful release from lifes drama and when incorporating body soul mind and strength a very spiritually connecting experience...but for me... when I get an opportunity to be held like this... when a woman expects nothing physical back but puts her heart and soul into it... when they caress or comb their fingers through my hair... gentle touches... that level of love and nurturing is like coming home... something I don't get to do often...

about 5 yearsThis is so beautiful. To me as a woman, I think this side of a man is more romantic than if he had acted. I think we all just want to be held sometimes. Sometimes we pick the wrong person and things don't mean as much. If a man were to lie down next to me and ask for nothing but to hold him, how lovely would that be? Instead of throwing himself on her and ravaging her he showed that he thirst for her comfort and felt alive by doing so. Bella!

You are a lot of fun to talk with...The duality of man... in this I am not ashamed... for I take more than solace from the burning bush... the lover with many names and forms... all of which can be perceived as both divine and comedic upon reflection... but never criminal... for that is a refraction... still I plan to walk ever forward... not backward with head twisted toward my haunches... I will enjoy each fealing... each manifestation... of this life... for what its worth... all the while providing the same... for fellow travelers... who I know to be myself... enjoying infinite journeys ;)
