Adultery - Tumblr Posts
No one has ever called me soft before you.
Breathless
You still take my knees away.
God I wish it was simple.
Icarus
We come together again, gravity falling naked into the ocean; lovers comfortable with all our flaws and imperfections.
Your hand on my cheek-stroke the sweat from my upper lip, I kiss your finger tips and continue to melt for you.
Ad Nauseum
You don't have to do that, you know.
You don't have to keep reminding me that you won't divorce her.
I came back, remember?
I walked in this time with my eyes wide open and no illusions that I will ever be more than second best.
Because I love you.
And if that means sharing you with her till the day one of the three of us dies, then I'm prepared to do that.
Ephemeral
I hold your love around me like a soap bubble, fragile to the slightest breath, still agape at its existence; the wrong movement might rupture everything in a scented mist.
Shiny
It's the promise you know, that means more than the thing promised;
because I know the weight of your word.
Sir?
"You can date if you want to"
"I don't recall asking your permission"
Black Jack
The world around me comes in pairs, two by two by two like Noah's ark on parade and tonight-
our triangle is a line because this moment is for you and her; there's no room for me in your marriage tonight.
Lover Stop, Lover Don't
I'll be whatever you need me to be right now; just please don't put me through that again.
Pantheon
You are Ares; god of war
You are Apollo; god of sun
You are Hades; god of death
You are immortal in my arms
Road Rash
There's a moment when the collagen fibers are hanging in shreds from the edge of the scab, where the pain intensifies sharply and blood; bright and weepy begins to peek out at the center. There's a moment right there when you know damn well you should stop pulling; but you just....don't.
"It must be awkward when I talk about her"
Nope. Not awkward at all.
V is for Vanities (and Vendettas)
Last night I made you say "Oh my God"
Tonight the you have not spoken to me at all
Helpless Before Thee
Please God, I pray, just bring my lover home safe
Even though home isn't with me
Just please.
Parking Lot Romance
Yours is the name I whisper to the sunsets that take my breath away and to myself a hundred times a day when the emotion becomes so overwhelming that something has to escape my lips like a prayer like blasphemy like salvation and alleluia
alleluia
alleluia
Amen.
The Anatomy of Jealousy
If I could stretch my fingers into tendrils across this table
interlaced intertwined the way I want to be with you burrowing seeking the source
through dermis and tissue at your throat till you swallow me as I have you uncounted times I will penetrate your heart so deeply embedded in your ventricles that you cannot live without the presence of me
and then no other can have you.
Monday 1955
We touch on it from time to time, and I tell you the same always: you've never given me false hope.
Except
you have.
Every time you tell me you're in love with me. Every time you tell me it's fading for her. Every time you tell me about the conflict in your soul, every time you claim me as yours;
hope flickers.

I don't understand what's going wrong or how to fix it I'm losing you and I don't know why
Sunday 0001
To put a name on it, he is a what might have been, and now my childhood friend starts lingering at the edges of my mind, a dangerous habit as I've a tendency to fall for fantasies.
What might have been. I'll always wonder how it could have gone.
Sunday 1120
I dreamed of you last night, dreamed that you were ready to leave her and come to me.
Dear God, my dreams are cruel.
