Slip - title suggestions are welcome!


Hey, I'll be replying to others' work when I get back home, I just wanted to get something out here to start with:

Slip

I want to skip my heart across your skin,
linger bank-side, listen to your voice
rippling over me standing on sun-steamed sand.

I want to wade into you, feel you slip
between my toes, rush around my ankles,
lilting a melody through the fluid air.

I want to lie back and float through you,
carry me swiftly to your babbling mouth
and drop me into your salt lips.

I want to fill up with you, hold you without
dripping through my fingers.
I want to drown among your pebbles.

July 30, 2007

Dude, This is really wonderful writing. I love the metaphor. Love the feel of it. It is refreshing like a longtime lover after the stress of working.

Water is a perfect description of lovemaking. Fluid. Motion. covering. cleansing, etc.

I loved this.

Thanks - it feels good to know when a poetic conceit is more than just a poet's conceit :)

I'm kind of cheating, though - my inspiration's name is Brooke 0:)

I like "Slip" by the way.

okay - I'll stick with it then. "Simply" was the original title, and I hated it.

well any one who combines the two greatest forces possible (ocean and passion) gets my vote!
I, personally, love the title. It's simple and fitting.
Welcome aboard and awesome entrance.
