CAMELOT FANTASIES

Romancing the Devil
Hooked on the dark within
Come play with matches🔥
...

Black shadows beckon
Within he waits
My dark passion
My carnal downfall

#storyin12
...
Words slipping sideways
Sobriety sliding south
Drowning all my troubles
Dribbling from my mouth
Here I’m shivering
Tennessee Whiskey on my tongue
Smooth as molasses
Tryin’ 2 forget all I’ve done
Those truffle eyes
That lied n lied again
Haunt my mind
Cause me pain

#moonmystic
...

Drizzle of kisses
Soupçon of salacious thoughts
Bring to a high heat 🔥

Reckless abandon
Slow burning consummation
In bed by midnight

#haiku
#haikulust
...

Let me hold on to it
Just a bit longer
All I have left
So precious
Memento Mori
Of all that is you
In my mind’s eye
You’ll always be
Burning bright
Never fading
My guiding light

#dimpleverse
...

Hold my hand
The cold is creeping
Don’t let go
The numbness is seeping
Say my name
Tell me I’ll live
I know you’re lying
But it’s a fib I’ll forgive
Stay beside me
Be my friend
As the light fades
Until the very end

A moment in time
#frozen  forever
Our hands touched
Our gazes locked
We tried so hard
To break the hold
But we’re so weak
The draw too strong
The pull too much
We fell so fast
Tumbling down
Lost in the rapture
A world of our own

O #fickle Fate, what hast thou in store for me?
A mere mortal prey to your mercurial whims
Toy with me not for I am too wretched of soul
The years tumbling like dominoes before me
Stretching ahead they’re but the shackles I wear
O wise Fate, release me from this mortal servitude
...

O #fickle Fate, what hast thou in store for me?

...

& the wild winds blew
Their tempestuous rage
Ferocious in strength
Commanded my obedience
Demanded subservience
I was the flickering flame
The light in the darkness
They wouldn’t allow
& so they devoured
Snuffed me out in a flash
To languish once more
A guttered force on a floor
...

Sonorous chiming
Hark the tolling of the #bell
Ringing the changes

#haikudaily
#haiku

Tennessee temptation
Sultry and smooth
Lingers upon my tongue
I’m getting in the groove
“Pick your poison”
My demon cajoled
Bourbon or nicotine?
Watching me fold
That smirk in his tone
He knows me well
How weak I am
Going straight to Hell

Reaching out
Is never easy
Harder and harder
Or so it seems
We’re all lost
Voices drowned out
This modern world
Deafening cacophony
That doesn’t care
Of the sinking seconds
Remaining to save
The poor souls fading
Beneath cruel waves

A frosty morning greets my eyes, as I lay amidst a sea of wrapping paper.  Seemingly miles of ribbons strewn in rainbow hues all around while there he sits, wagging his tail, drowning in eggnog we didn’t drink, too focussed on each other...

A sleigh ride serenade to the chime of bells, wrapped in blankets to keep us warm, we dashed through a wonderland draped in snow as mischievous choirboys chased us wildly, tossing stacks of snowballs, the sound of our laughter hanging in the air...

Those well stuffed stockings had well and truly caught his eye, and she knew she shouldn’t have climbed the ladder to place the ⭐️ at the top of the 🎄.  His teasing fingers, cold upon her thigh, reached to snap her garter as she shrieked “Vicar!”

#SlamWords #encore - round 8
...

While high above the Gods do watch
Set upon seats of silver stars
And smile to see the humans cavort
In Yuletide jubilation so merry
As gentle flakes of snow do fall
And “silver bells” sweetly carries
Upon the air to warm the hearts

#SlamWords #30thEdition #encore - round 9

He took me up to heaven
I saw swags of silver stars
Comets flew in dazzling brilliance
My soul did soar as he tightened his hold

Tonight’s been a marvel
Messy but perfect
I’ve enjoyed myself
Words tumbling forth
Painting verbal images
Challenging my mind
Stretching my imagination
I can’t wait for Christmas
All wrapped up in tinsel
And pine scented celebration

Seduction city
Suffused lighting temptation
Shivering touches

Bathed in the heat of his slumbrous gaze, I relaxed in the warmth of his strong embrace, his strength my haven in a world grown dangerous and cold, his arms my safe harbour.

How easily he holds manipulative #sway
His words hypnotic in rhythm and rhyme
With hooded eyes halve glazed they stare
Their lips spilling mumbled chants and prayers

#vss365
...

I see you
Standing there
In the shadows
Watching me
I feel the heat
Of your burning gaze
Tracing my curves
You started a fire
A conflagration
My perception of U
Is there’ll be no waiting
Take what we need
As U want to do
Slake you’re thirst
This night isn’t thru

#PoemTrail  407
...

Like a #mirage
Teasing my senses
Offering shelter
A safe place to be
But all is folly
A cruel cruel joke
Played on us by Gods
Who have no heart
In the blink of an eye
You were gone
Without a trace
No even a footprint
To mark your place

#vss365
...

Starshine brilliance
Bathes the land
Mysterious omens
All carefully planned
Conjure the moon
With just a word
Savour the power
The mad rush
Then the lazy flow
The pull of temptation
You know where to go
A mix of magic
& desire
She’s waiting
For U

Lingering gazes
Sensations coalescing
Marauding hungers

#haikulust
#haiku
...

How lonely she seems
Standing there
Neath lowering skies
An abandoned air
Long has she waited
A Black Church on the Hill
Her foundations sunk deep
Her heart beating still
Her time shall come
As it did once before
Long ago it seems now
Fate shall knock on her door

#PoemTrail  408

Intense attraction
Lure me to the carnal side
Passion consuming

#haiku

Crimson intensity
Midnight carnality blooms
Lost in dark desires

Ink is mightier
Cruel words eviscerate
Blood flows on a page

#haiku
...

Fairy lights were twinkling
To the dancing of happy elves
The Boss had left in a cloud of snow
The North Pole was theirs at last
Tinsel had found a corkscrew
& hidden bottles of wine
Now they were #wringing
With every bottle downed
Every bit of joy from a very good time

#vss365
...

If I could do it all over again
Rerun the past correcting mistakes
Like a movie that needs a serious edit
Why would I want to relive the pain?
My greatest regret still cuts so deep
The words I never meant to say
Cut hard to the core
And that blood still seeps

How softly falls the Winter rain
Veil of tears from heaven above
No #virtual sleight of hand
Cool kisses landing on my cheeks
Lifting my face - I smile
Blessed by their sweet benediction

Paris in daylight
May be for some
But I much prefer
Paris in night
Beneath glittering stars
Draped in brilliance
She does beguile
Mesmerise and entrance
An indulgence of the senses
Such a gem of beauty

No matter the place
The time or the day
He’s there in my thoughts
No words does he say
In the warm kiss of the sun
Soft caress of a playful breeze
I feel his tender loving care
Knowing he’s right there with me

#poetry
...

Cruel alchemy
Bewitching and beguiling
Magnetic pull or not?

#haiku
...

Inside the storm
Crucible of fire
She waits for you
Wiccan desire

Twists of fate
The spiral & turn
Dragging you down
In Hellfire shall you burn

Reason no more
For damnation awaits
A cruel state of mind
Neath a hunter’s moon

Oh how she bathed in the #glow
Golden flames dancing before her eyes
Those burning bridges she left behind
A glorious backdrop to a future so bright

#vss365
...

Can you hear it?
Pulsing in the air
A soft heartbeat
Almost silent
Tis the rhythm of life
and through all of us
Does it sweetly flow

#DimpleVerse
...

I lie awake
Counting shadows
On the ceiling
Yet still no sleep

A clock chimes
Soft and steady
The hour is late
I’m achingly ready

A stir of air
Hot brush of breath
Heat surrounds me
Skin on skin

Skimming fingers
Firm and strong
Tend my fire
Tonight shall it burn long
