Velvet
Half past midnight,
In a mood lit street,
We are sleeping alone,
Red velvet leaking from your heart;
A blanket To keep us warm.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Butterflies
Stirring butterflies inside,
At your warm forgiving touch,
With eyes open far and wide,
Love sensations hurt too much.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Restoration
When words to fail and fall,
Touch becomes sounds relation,
And you do answer the call,
With eyes of restoration.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Chains
And more chain smoking mornings,
Disappears into the cloud,
Yet more ominous warnings,
Of the turmoil to be found.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Pencil Hearts
And I drew your heart,
Upon the white wall,
To show you are art,
And how you enthrall.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Lusterless
Plucking our heart strings,
‘Neath lusterless stars,
A tune fit for kings,
This swansong of ours.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Chased
Upon my pyre forced to dance,
With no chance to retire,
I do renounce my last chance,
As I am chased by the fire.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Madness
My descent into madness,
A tango with the devil,
Darkness envelopes sadness,
As my wings do dishevel.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Paths
And down the worn path,
Bare feet in the soil,
I do meet my wrath,
And myself do recoil.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Deafness
Though I am may be overwhelmed,
For me, you do try to endear,
Please teach me to hear myself,
I am deaf as my soul’s ear.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Hours
My shallow breaths unheard,
As my thoughts grow louder,
Words flying through the blurred,
All day, hour after hour.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Atlas
Finding meaning in the madness,
In chaos and the absurd,
Dancing upon the atlas,
As my knowledge goes unheard.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Rising Mist
‘Neath a blanket of starlight,
Sailing the most covert sea,
With the cascading moonlight,
Raising mist, obscuring me.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Twinkle
With a twinkle in my eye,
And a dimple in my cheek,
Acting deceptively shy,
With my demure mystique.
—————————————————————————————————————-
A Soldier’s Return
No more sleepless nights,
My soldier returns,
Regale me with lights,
And ease my concerns.
—————————————————————————————————————-
Masquerade
As love you do masquerade,
With words of rosiest red,
All questions you do evade,
With parodies of flames wed.
—————————————————————————————————————-
