J.J. Campbell- Three Poems

a wonderful fantasy

beautiful
curves in
all the right
places and
a smile to
match

my mind
starts to
imagine a
wonderful
fantasy of
lace and
handcuffs

and then i
notice the
ring on
her finger

bright
shiny
and big

morality
and i have
never exactly
seen eye to
eye

so what are
you drinking?


such a beautiful creature

i picture your naked body
resting comfortably in my
bed

still breathing

unlike what most of your
friends believed would
happen when a freak like
me falls for such a beautiful
creature like you

i'll go to the mirror and
admire the marks you left
on my back

after a shower, i'll come
back to bed and you'll
be gone

panties still on the floor

even in my dreams

everyone tries to escape
their mistakes as fast as
possible


be it love or desperation

night sweats of
lilac fantasies

the tremble of
my skin pressed
upon yours

be it love or
desperation

may neither of
us give a shit
until it is time
to do so

like love sick
teens running
away from home

you rarely get
to act like this
as an adult and
not feel like a
fucking fool

imagine
perfection

and then think
of something
better

i look in your
eyes and see
every dream
i never got to
see come true

if i ever needed
a moment to
never stop...
