CAMELOT FANTASIES

How cruel those words
#hurled in fury
since regretted
Our love brutally murdered

#poetryin13
…

We tread a rocky path
Upon the twisting road of life
Sometimes smooth underfoot
At others potholes hamper our path
Yet onward onward do we go
The distant horizon eagerly marked
Sometimes all that is left to do
Is follow that mysterious trail
Unto the unquiet dark

 #moonmystic
…
In quiet shadows
dark and cool
she patiently waits
for she is no fool

Mocking eyes
a gaze unveiled
draws the unwary
their souls curtailed

Sublime masquerade
how cruel is fate
one kiss and you’re done
falling hard for the bait…

Lost in wild rapture
Burning for more
This tempestuous embrace
Sets afire my hungry core

The world falls away
Tomorrow can wait
We two caught in the moment
Appetites neither can sate

#SensualScribbles
…

Never-ending curves that lead to paradise
Sublime rolling hills and lush blooming valleys
Stroking fingers caress carnal explorations
Upon #silhouette frames shivering in anticipation

#SensualScribble
…

Mysterious creature why do you sigh?
Is it the fear of life passing you by?
The light of life fading that once was so bright
Now barely flickering to light the night?
#Charlatan thoughts to prick a mind
Once so very clear yet now cruelly blind

#madVerse
…

From out of the mist
They #ride the land
Veiled and mysterious
No one can withstand
The ravaging cry
The scream in the night
The pistol that’s cocked
Merciless to the plight
Some people do run
But don’t get far
The slash of the cutlass
Their flesh does it mar

“Winter is coming”
The North Wind did howl
And folk cowered in fear
While around them wolves prowled

“All beauty must die”
The North Wind decreed
Scattering crimson red petals
Upon virgin snow did they bleed

I am the dream you cannot remember
That brings you out in a hungry sweat

I am the name you cry out in the night for
The one that you just cannot seem to forget

I am the wish you hope will come true
That some day in the future I’ll turn to you

#roses and lavender I give to you
In remembrance of a love so true
Straight from the heart - sincerely meant
To my loving soulmate - from heaven sent

 #vss365
…

Laughter like a summer breeze
Across a mirrored lake does float
Echoes of much happier times
An innocent past now so remote
The veil of time does now conceal
What once we thought ever so real
Now just a memory lost in time
When I was yours and you were mine

#madverse
…

Systems all down
Crashed and burning
Energy waning
Seeping away
Who pulled the plug?
When did it happen?
Why do I care?
As the light fades away
All becomes blackened…

#vss365
…

Silken #petals drenched in dew
Glisten and tempt the touch of you
Scents of heaven drench the air
Teasing addictions with a carnal flair

#SensualScribbles
…

What dark desires do we always conceal?
The hidden macabre we dare not reveal
What secret needs do we store up inside?
Craving violent release upon a raging tide
Bide we must until the darkening of time
Shielded from the dawn and our bloody crimes

Like a Roman candle my heart took fire
His touch lit the spark to a raging desire

We burned so bright in the dark of night
Left spent and smouldering by dawn’s gentle light

The Friday night crowd was turning rowdy
Bubba n Bob squaring off in the bar
Bets were placed - who’d be the last man standing
Bonfires n beers out in the yard
Just another Friday night out in the sticks
Kicking back with the boys playing guitar

“those were the days, my friend
we thought they’d never end”
And yet they did before we knew it
Lost in a moment they slipped away
Nostalgic memories are all I have left
For a better time & a much gentler way

Explosions of colour showered the sky
Cries of wonder echoed at the fiery cascade on high
The grand finale spectacle on the 4th of July
Made hearts fill with joy and so much  pride
