This Feel
by Joi Lunden
This feel I’ve got for you is deep
It’s hard
It’s big and wide and strong
And sometimes when I’m sad or lonely
I wrap up tight in this feel I've got for you
This feel I’ve got for you
Makes me want to laugh
Makes me want to cry
Makes me want to come
Makes me wonder why
I feel this feel for you
This feel I’ve got for you...
It’s like the clenching of my heart at goodbyes and regrets
It’s like the slow, wet burn of my unshed tears
It’s like the bubbling sensation of forthcoming laughter
It’s like the first shudders of orgasmic pleasure
It's like the sweet bitterness of melancholy moments
...This feel I've got for you
This feel I’ve got for you
Ain’t one of those weak “L” words . „. i
It ain’t love
I’d be a fool to love you
Such an absurd notion makes me want to
Simultaneously laugh and scream
It ain’t like
Under different circumstances
Your colored eyes, mack' attacks
And certain things we never seem to discuss
Would not let me like you
It ain't lust
Or i would not feel the need
To make you feel needed
My hands would not grasp and guide;
My legs would not enfold and hug
This feel I’ve got for you ain’t weak
Stronger than
I love you
Stronger than
I like you
Stronger than
I lust after
YOU
What is this feel I've got for you?
I quite simply
Quite deeply
Feel you
And wonder
Quite quietly
Quite loudly...
Do you feel me to?

I’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE
LOST, WITHOUT A CLUE.
WHY?
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY.
WHY?
I THOUGHT I -DID- . ^
BUT NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU \
THINK-
YOU DO NOT KNOW.
I WAS THERE-
SO DON’T GO THERE WITH ME-
I PREFER TO BE ALONE.
IT TWISTS INTO A KNOT-
A KNOT THAT CANNOT BE UNTIED
WITHIN ME.
IT HURTS.
IT HURTS-
BUTI PREFER TO LEAVE IT INSIDE
MY DESOLENCE.
IF YOU CAN EXPLAIN WHY-
THIS SORE WILL OPEN UP-
AND RUN DOWN MY FEELINGS.
IF YOU LOVE ME-
PLEASE LET THIS BE
IT’LL JUST TAKE LONGER TO HEAL.
WHAT I’VE BEEN THROUGH-
I DO NOT REGRET-
BUTI WISH IT HADN’T HAPPENED.
OIL AND WATER NEVER MIXED-
SO WHY TRY TO MIX IT?
BECAUSE IT F KS YOU UP GOOD
