Lay me down
Amidst blooming meadows
Where summer breezes
And heady scents
May tear me away
Make me forget
All I left behind
#DimpleVerse
...
A fantasy walking
Brought to life
She trailed men's eyes
In bewitching guise
#SenseWrds 247
...
I was a land
Virgin untouched
He was my conqueror
Demanding submission
My total surrender
He was my ruin
But I could not weep
#SableSwanV
...
As the heavens danced in jubilation
Showering stars sparkled ever brighter
& comets chased in celebration
Across a night sky
#VerseReversal
...
Bathed in starlight
Beneath a waxing moon
To her knees
She fell
Beseeching gaze
To the cool Selene
Upon her lips
Soft prayers
#ShapePoetry
...
From this cauldron of melancholy
Stir me to life
To drink once more from the cup of good fortune
Taste the fruits of success
#writtenriver
...
What mercy this?
When offered at the point of a sword
A lonely witness to my world in flames
A pilgrim wretchedly left wandering
#HeartWrds
...
Empty rooms
Without soul
Or purpose
He walks a lonely path
Disdaining all yet none
A misanthrope untouched
And without need
#IntrigueVerse
...
With a salacious touch
He is the voyager
Set forth upon his quest
2 capture my heart
Take what is his
Explore & consume
All of me
#DsubVerse
...
Dreams set in flight
Ethereal wisps of what could be
If we but had the courage
2 linger on the horizon
Temptingly within reach
#DimpleVerse
...
From a MIASMAL MIST
Thick with portent
A BACKWATER MELODY
Floats upon the air
Rich with LONELY YEARNINGS
& tragic BAYOU BLUES
#PoemTrail 78
...
Down among the dead men
Those fallen B4 their time
Where monster hearts beat fierce
& Blood runs hot & wild
Howling for release
#DarkLines
...
A hot July night
In the sultry bayou
When the air is thick
Like warm molasses
And blood runs hot
As desire rises
Beneath a lush full moon
🔥
...
When the heat becomes too much
& blood flows hot with desire
Drench my senses
In your touch
Your scent
As I begin to perspire
#IntrigueVerse
...
If under a sky
As black as this
We shall meet again
When time has worn ragged
Wrath's fearful edge
Then let it be as friends
#SableSwanV
...
Some whispered
Some stared
Some turned away
But none could ignore
Sweet Cinnamon Gray
With bewitching eyes
& a smile 2 bespell
#writtenriver
...
Run my friend
Run fast
Run far
Yet with every mile
Death still waits
Fate cannot be outrun
Cannot be cheated
Accept your dark end
#DarkLines
...
Look once
Then once again
Can it be?
Conjured by grief
Or longed for reality
A blessed mirage
& hopeful dreams
He returns to me
#ShapePoetry
..
Rising from the seductive arms of Morpheus
A kiss blown to the magnificent Apollo
Already ablaze in furious magnificence
#SenseWrds 249
...
Sleepy eyed
To bed he goes
Soft kisses aplenty
Upon his brows
With dragging feet
Upstairs to dream
Of puppy dogs
& ice cream
#SenseWrds 250
...
Whisper
Rumour
Tales abound
Mysterious
Apocryphal
All unfound
Whether U believe
It matters not
When all is done
Accept Ur lot
#IntrigueVerse
...
Once upon a MOONLIT BOULEVARD
Lost in a SEPIA DREAM
Beneath a VELVET sky
When VINTAGE Hollywood stardust
Burst in SENSUAL bliss
#DimpleVerse
...
She herself was a haunted house
Where the ghosts of her dreams still swarmed
Yet no exorcism would lay these demons to rest
#madVerse
...
KISMET'S ROAD led us here
Thru APPLE ORCHARDS
& IDYLLIC LAVENDER FIELDS
Where senses awaken
Amidst aromatic wonderlands
#DimpleVerse
...
U run
U hide
Yet still they're there
Everybody's got their demons
Some scream aloud
Some not so much
But we're all still fighting
#madVerse
...
Six feet under
Did you think yourself safe?
Lost from sight
Entwined in sylvan embrace
She comes just 4 U
Mother Natures revenge
#DarkLines
...
My release
Was your captivity
With every word
Each caressing touch
My bonds wrapped tighter
You were mine
Long before you knew it
