No Cover

August 3, 2015March 22, 2022 Jason Preuall you need is love and darkness and a thermos, poem, poetry, writing

You ask me my name
Only after we’ve made love
I tell you I’m nameless
You don’t seem to mind

I don’t want you to see
My body in daylight
I don’t want you to know
Anything about me

I don’t want you to hear
My voice when we’re sober
I don’t want you to think
It’s love when you’re near

Under the covers we know it’s forever
Under the covers we feel this is truth
Under the covers you call me your lover
Under the covers we stay ’til we’re through

Hey Devious Blogger… that was a nice one. Why don’t you participate in twitter poem contests? I am sure you would win accolades.

  Because they all require you to wear pants and I can’t write with pants on!
