Prowls the night
Hungry 4 more
Appetite undiminished
Angel or sinner
Caring not which
In the dark
2 a soul stealer
All the same
#DarkLines
...
We stood
We stared
We couldn't look away
Our gazes locked
Emotion sizzled the air
You asked
I answered
& all without speaking
#SableSwanV
...
'Tis the music of the waves
Lapping on the shore
An ocean song of voyages to be made
Lands just beyond the horizon
Waiting..
#Poem_Pocket
...
Gentle pilgrims on life's path
Seeking escape from a rushing world
Along shaded paths
We rediscover ourselves
& learn 2 breathe

As night leeches light
From the day
I turn the page
Look away
Tomorrow beckons
Dreams to make
I was afraid
But that was yesterday
#AsymLife
...
Reckless bodies in the press
Battle -
a suicidal hydra
severing
severing
till the dead flow
like a river
beneath a storm
of blood and steel
Hell raining down
Damnation like a plague
To spread
To flow
Seeping through every pore
To leech the hope
The dreams of man
@Banquozghost
@MercurialNight
Dreams dying
with the men
who dreamt them
shafted by the same steel
leaking their lifeblood
into the mud
of the battlefield
Heroes now fallen
As wheat before the scythe
Their lives
Once full
Now drenching the ground
@Banquozghost
@MercurialNight
No bright sun on steel
night falls hard on a crow feast
looters seek booty
desperate hands slip
like snakes
among the dead
@MercurialNight
Staring
I wait for a footstep
It will not come
For the slip of the latch
It will not come
All dead, said the messenger
With leaden heart she crumples
A soft cry upon her lips
As darkness enshrouds her
She hears his voice again
Lost on the wind
@Banquozghost
@MercurialNight
Reaching
ever reaching
in tears
in sleep and dreams
for the ghost of him
she can hold no more
...
Racing
Never still
Her life bound 2 the tick of time
Then twilight comes
2 shade
2 slow
2 brush the stress away
Peace at last

Throw of the dice
Roll of the wheel
Luck of the draw
Bet it all on a deal
Capricious Fate will decide
If I lose at all
#MSpoetry
...
Senses alive to the wonder around
Sensations explode in sublime rhapsody
Infusions of such generous proportion
I can barely cope

Where gentle waters murmur
There shall I rest my soul
...
The way U lie
Your eyes conceal much
Yet your lips spill deceit
Your wrong felt so right
Now U watch me burn
Revenge born of spite
#Ashverse

When the tempest within is spurred to life
Tranquility to storm tossed fury
To break upon an innocent shore
In rough edged ire

When the tempest within is spurred to life
Tranquility to storm tossed fury
To break upon an innocent shore
In rough edged ire

Paying exquisite attention to every silken slide of his fingers upon my flesh, I breathe in soft anticipation of sweet ecstasy
#DsubVerse
...
A secret love
In blossom shall flourish
Upon the knell of death
To tenderly nourish
Emotions too powerful
To bloom in life
@ispitfire79
...
As shadows walk
Across the walls
Flames burn bright
Thru the night
& yet no warmth
To quell the chill
He stalks me now
Still
@Banquozghost
...
Soft portals to a weeping soul
In shimmering trepidation peep
As Summer fades to Winter white
I take my leave and away I creep
#DimpleVerse
...
Was it only yesterday
That my life spun
Twisted in a spiral
When Fates laughed aloud
Teaching their lesson
& my life changed
#SableSwanV 22
...
Shimmering golden shades
Bronzed thru Fall's gentle light
Kaleidoscopic ribbons of light
To chase the ice
From Winter's sight
#Poem_Pocket
...
Ribbons in shimmering shades color my world in kaleidoscopic hues 2 raise the spirit & bring a smile to those with the power to C
#MadVerse
...
These myriad lines
Reflected back
Each tells tale
A memory forgotten
Yet each I trace
They remind me
Of a life lived in full
