Please meet Deborah Woods. She is a wonderful poet that can take your soul to the next level. Say hello.

Deborah is happy to share a diverse collection of her work through 'Aphrodite Ink', her first compilation of poetic verse and prose. Included in this book you will find a mixture of light inspirational, dark, erotic and Haiku poetry.

Coming Soon to PDMI Kindle

She is also working on her first novel, a Romantic Thriller that will be out in the near future! 

Inspired by reminiscence, solitude and admiration of the beautiful, through art and music, Deborah Woods shares her deepest thoughts and dreams 

through her writing and poetry. Her labyrinthine existence through her childhood and teen years cultivated her habit of internalizing, thus catapulting her fight to write. From her earliest recollections she has taken pen to paper, writing poetry and short stories inspired by her own experiences and the offered promise of a better tomorrow.

Now a grown woman she sees the world through new eyes of unbounded existence. Inspired my music, a sad story in the news, holding a friend in heartbreak, to dreams that mean nothing...or everything, she quills her invocation of love, lust, fantasy and beauty that is coated behind a wax seal of intrinsic desires.

Life's chaotic paradox sometimes finds her travelling over to the shaded side where the dark, erotic and sometimes frightening reside as well. After all, everyone faces a monster from time to time.

Simply put, she is rebellion in a pretty dress, doing as she pleases while she calls on memories of past days, a uniquely poetic world and the unlimited gifts found in the silence to offer their muse. She is as she was meant to be, on a constant quest for self-enlightenment and improvement through literary penmanship.

Black Butterfly

I am no serpent to be charmed

under, ritual flutes

ambiguous intention,

so do not speak to me of want 

for, I am following

the black butterfly s flight;

I will not listen as my spirits 

grace holds tight 

to her midnight wings;

in quest of her oracle wisdom

to reclaim possession

of my restive minds peace

Paradox love

Love,

 the ruling tempest stealing minds

as we breathe for it;

enveloped by it's sorcery

even when hurts...

we are consumed by this emotion;

Incessant nicks in tender layers,

irrationality injected to veins

the yearning in the deepest lonely night

a sanguine dream of the departed.

and the burning of rejection;

A psychological dichotomy

of brilliance, verses darker shades

as a red rose transforms to green

where it sways to a rhapsodic melody,

before the wind breaks it at the stem

Love pumps fire through a spirit

overcome by a powerful kiss to lips;

To break apart in orgasmic bliss

fills a heart with tender nourishment'

where souls cannot live without

But, the loss of it leaks agony by raining tears 

yet, we seek it out to repair cracks in a broken heart, 

opening to more of its aching sensation 

for the pain is a necessary part,

of the human addiction

Afflicted with its sickness,

healed under immeasurable passion

longing for a sultry summer night

with hope for its eternal gift,

lost in the paradox

Love 

Shivering Whisper 

As a heart sustains a soul and a breath does life

Your whisper carries my spirit to flight

As I close my eyes and feel you

  Touching my skin with it

Seducing my mind, serenading my heart 

You physically alter me

You unleash beauty with a softly hushed motif

Changing nuance and colour as it passes your lips

Your quiet declaration, a salty air lullaby

Raises goosebumps along my heated skin

And, you keep me wanting

 Needing things I never knew I could have

Your whisper is a touch

A passionate explorer mapping out my body

With a light heated breath roaming, you raise me up

From ashed cinders to combustive flame beneath your brush

As you engulf me with melody I soften

My favourite song, your whispering of my name

As you mouth your needs into my ear

They caress my heart to a staggering beat

I feel everything on a hushed caress kissing my soul

I shiver with your sweet lovers secret

And with your gently breathed power

You have my full attention
