Felixia's Poem #6 - Lady in Qipao

she stares out

eyes half closed

head tilted slightly up

elbow on her bared knee

of a pair of ivory legs

crossed

she shuts her eyes

as the smoke rose

from her cigarette

the ashes drop

on her qipao's thigh slit

silently

i could almost see

way past her shut eyes

into her thoughts

as she drifts into her past

of unrecruited love

lost

Felixia's Poetry#3 - Words of a lost soul

Words of a lost soul

The emptiness beyond all these

The nothingness upon a kiss

How could two lost souls unite?

When it's all just physical and sight

Doormat is a job I have retired

I hate, for not being desired

Longed for, wanted, mad for

A feeling I never had before

Bitterness, indeed is all I felt

After all those things I've dealt

A heart that's been toyed around

Pride that's been stamped on ground

Now that I am back in the game

It didn't feel quite the same

What happened to my naivety, innocence?

Had they been ruined by men's nonsense?

My faith in love is lost, I'm afraid

Physically alive, emotionally dead

Another lost soul in the sea of lust

Exhausted of love, hopes and trust
