PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I have myself a new little honey

and on his obvious desires I'd be willing to bet

good money

he hasn't come right out and said so yet but the

thoughts are clearly there

I can hear it in his lowered soul filled voice

feel it in his dark blue eyed stare

like he wants to believe yet still doesn't that

of him I too am fully aware

who but GOD himself could give a most curious man

a set of eyes unlike that of any other pair

I know that he can feel that the desire is truly

mutual

Of this fact, I'd be willing to swear

and of heartache and hurt he's probably had more

than his share

Isn't it profound and very nearly as queer

that only a counter top separates the two of us

with each standing so unsure in his own fear.........
