CAMELOT FANTASIES

Break the binding cage
Free the soul locked inside
The true price of love

When the days are short
And the nights are long
When it seems too hard
That you can’t go on

Then think of Spring
And blooms aplenty
The cold didn’t kill them
Your heart is not empty

About his head
Dark #portents swirled
Ravens and crows
Black daggers beheld

Destiny was calling
Seductive and cruel
On the wind came cries
His rage they did fuel

Battle engaged
To win was the all
Blood was the currency
He’d come too far to fall

Upon a mysterious playful breeze
A midnight flight of falcons appeared
Soaring so high they flew overhead
In arrow formation with wings so far spread
I gazed in awe as they flew out of sight
Wondering where they were headed
In the deep dead of night

Pawns we are without any free will
Played by Masters just for the thrill
Tis a liars game of bluff & deception
Half truths & secrets without exception
Breaking down moves in dark wounded faith
That the final gambit wins or takes us to our grave

How cruel the night’s chill kiss
Sealing my fate in glacial bliss
Beneath a waning Winter moon
Death steals my soul much too soon

A whistling wind howls like a ravening beast
Hungrily slavering for my soul to feast
In the shadow of pines I feel it nearing
Stalking my steps into the clearing
Here shall I meet my violent end
At the hands of he I thought was my friend

Footprints upon pristine fields of snow
Led me down a path I previously could not go
Sun blinded by dazzling brilliance beneath
I followed the trail to the edge of the trees

Delicate sparkles dance in the sun
Brilliant as diamonds every one
Spun glass could in no way compete
This treasure I’ve found is all that I need

And there she lay where she was found
About her pale brow a mistletoe crown
Porcelain flesh as the new fallen snow
Holly & ivy entwined in her bower, silent and cold

...

Volleys of music rang through the air
A warning to all that they should beware
Come any closer and it’ll be your end
The Angel at peace is a Celestine friend
Ornaments as ammo were a curious sight
As they flew like blades after those in flight

He is the last in a world of white
The others all gone, melted from sight
A lone snowman standing sentinel
What secrets does he know
Of those footprints leading nowhere
Trailing crimson drops in the snow?

Little Angel I called her
Once upon a time
When she was still human
When she was still mine

Twas Christmas time
About a year ago
When the demons took her
Left her in the snow

Hanging memories
All I have left
Of her gentle smile
Sweet baby’s breath

Silver spangles and candy canes
Inside the elves grotto happiness reigns
Rudolph and the others, ready to go
No two alike as they fly o’er the snow
The North Star above to guide the way
They appear as a comet leading a sleigh

Hot & fragrant
Dark & strong
My secret craving
Here you belong

Cupped in my palms
Treasured brew
Sipping slowly
Oh, how I love you

I’ll never get enough
Of your rich reward
My tongue is in rapture
My senses adored

#SlamWords #42ndEdition #encore - round 8
...

Through the dark hours
When bad things do roam
I’ll keep a light shining
‘Til you return home

The midnight star
Shining on high
Will be your beacon
In the night sky

Wherever you are
I’m thinking of you
‘Til we meet again
I’ll  be true

In the spirit of forgiveness
Christmas and all that
She’d let them live
Not crush ‘em flat

Bugs on a windscreen
They’d not last long
“‘Tis the Season” 🎶
she softly sang the song

#measured breaths
One by one
You’ve got this
Get the job done

Neighbours may talk
What do they know?
He had it coming
Buried in the snow

Leave not a trace
Nothing to tell
Secrets of the forest
For a long dark spell

Hark the rhythm of the city
That shake rattle n roll
Down neon lit streets
Grabbing your very soul

The #melody of sirens
Harmonies in the night
The never ending soundtrack
To my every day life

 #vss365
...

Entangled desires
Deceptive misdirections
The games we do play

#haiku
...

A whimpering wet mess
Crumpled amidst the sheets
Straining for breath
Hot blood pounding
Your name
A whispered prayer
On bitten lips

#poetry
...

Upon my knees
In fervent supplication
I pledge my life
For what is left
To you and you alone
& in so doing
I purify my soul

#poetry
...

Tease my appetite
Tempt my yearning desire
With each
                soft
                      sweeping
                                     stroke
You lay a swathe of fire

#poetry

Bathed in shadow
Hungering need
Knowing he’d come
His key in the door
What was an affair
Now so much more
Wanton intent
Carnal desire
Whatever this was
It burns like fire
Secret addiction
Middle of the night
Lusty assignation
With a sinful bite

#golden and pure
How her halo did shine
Brighter than the sun
Celestial divine

Gilded perfection
Adored and admired
Glittering beauty
Bedazzled with fire

They always tried to tame her
Bend her daily to their will
Held her back when she resisted
Her spirit they did try to kill
But tis they that gave in
Tis their spirit she broke
A wild rose yet blooms
While the metropolis chokes

Flickering #candle in the night
Guide me home to be by your side
Light the path that my feet should tread
Weary and tired all I seek is my bed

Obsidian dream
Cruel demons bite all night
#nightime devils smile

Beguiled by #treasure
Hypnotised by plunder
Seduced by the sparkle
Your spell I fell under

 #vss365
...

I’m floating away
On a wave of emotion
Fragile thoughts spinning
Delicate as fine glass
Rumours did scorch
& shatter my heart
Wish-born you were here
To hold me tight
Keep the demons at bay
On my soul searching reflection
Thru another long lonely night
