 "Eyes Glitter with Desire" by Diana Mary Sharpton Photography Introduction: “I want her to melt into me, like butter on toast. I want to absorb her and walk around for the rest of my days with her encased in my skin. I want.” ― Sara Gruen, Water for Elephants Eyes My body is pressed against the wall, Grabbing a corner to steady a potential fall, Breathless, I catch your stare on me, And smell the ooze from your masculinity. Immediately, I don’t know what to do, Squirm about as a woman who’s lost her cool. Like the thief caught stealing someone else’s shoes, Or an owl shrieking to an intrusion; explicit whooos! Nothing’s spoken in air heavy yet calm, And my heart races in spiked emotional alarm. I turn to receive the rest of the room, And then back where your eyes continue to loom. You’re a formidable man, this I can see, Rugged, individualistic from a world that’s “Duty Free”! You take what’s desired and within reach, Which scares the crap out me, yet my interest peeks. In confidence, you step to me in a firm advance, As a breath escapes and my mind goes blank. Slowly sipping on that glass of white wine, I look up to accept your eyes diving into mine... 2015©copywriter Diana Mary Sharpton I definetly want you Sugar... :))  "Balance" by Diana Mary Sharpton Photography Introduction: “I hunger for your sleek laugh,/ your hands the color of a savage harvest,/ hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,/ I want to eat your skin like a whole almond.” ~ Pablo Neruda Need Your Love So Bad Need someone's hand To lead me through the night Need someone's arms To hold and squeeze me tight 'Cause when the night begins I'm at an end Because I need your love so bad Need some lips To feel next to mine Need someone to stand up And tell me when I'm lyin' When the lights are low And it's time to go That's when I need your love so bad Why don't you give it up Bring it on home to me, Or write it on a piece of paper, darlin' So it can be read to me Tell me that you love me And stop driving me mad Beacause I I need your love so bad Need your soft voice Talk to me at night Don't want you to worry baby 'Cause I know we can make everything allright Listen to my plea baby Bring it home to me Because I need your love so bad Not just you love but your passion...

The tawdry veined body emerges twisted upon itself like a winter wind . . . ! Thinking of you Sugar  "In The Light" by Diana Mary Sharpton Photography Introduction: “I won’t lie to you. We aren’t going to ride off into the sunset together and have everything fixed overnight. I know that, and I think you do too. But I’m willing to work at it, if you are. I do love you. I mean that with every cell in my body, every breath that I take. I think you’re worth it. I think we’re worth it. I think you could be the great love of my life” ― Victoria Michaels I have gone through a very difficult year at work. Actually, it started three years ago. All I can say is that bullying exists and it is extremely painful and debilitating when the person inflicting the pain is a manager. They have the power and the employee basically is at their mercy until they find another position, if they can. What if you can’t? You have to pay the bills. Think about it, how would you feel and what would you do if something like that happened to you? Bullying is aggressive behavior against another for power and control. An article by Dr. Gray Namie states that people that are targeted in the work place have certain personality traits. His article is found on: http://www.workplacebullying.org/tag/bullying-statistics/ “ABOUT BULLIED TARGETS in 2014 Finally, we asked the American public what type of person is targeted for abusive mistreatment in the workplace. Though this was a short, not exhaustive, list of personality traits, the results are clear. Those who claimed to have been aware that workplace bullying happens, believe that the overwhelming majority of individuals targeted possess positive attributes. That is, the same respondents who believed that targets are mostly incapable of defending themselves against bullying assaults believe targets are kind, cooperative and agreeable. Perhaps these same traits render the guileless person vulnerable to unpredictable attacks. This Survey does not provide a way to draw the causal link between the traits and targets’ ability to defend themselves. It is noteworthy that only 6% of targets are considered abusers themselves.” In the state of Texas this is allowed, believe it or not. It is an "at will" state and this means you can be dismissed without cause. So unless you have a case of discrimination, a manager will get away with this type of behavior, time and time again. Now, you can also hire an attorney and sue for wrongful termination based on a case of discrimination; however there is no law of protection at the State or Federal level against simple bullying, only if it reaches a level of discrimination. I personally believe that a case needs to be taken up to the Supreme Court. Laws need to be in place to correct this behavior in the work place it is not acceptable, at any level. There is no excuse for bad behavior. It should be a criminal act of violence. All of this said, I did have wonderful moments, like when I went to Australia. It was brilliant. I met some people that I care for deeply, those moment can never be replaced. This song reminded me of that good time and wishing for more. I love Sugar even in the bad times... |

Diana Mary Sharpton“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.” Categories
