CAMELOT FANTASIES

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
#DimpleVerse

...
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
#SenseWrds 164

...
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

#SableSwanV

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

#SableSwanV

...

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

#SenseWrds 167

...

 Hopes and dreams

Seal thy portals from this world
Close up thine ears to block allsound
Lay down amidst weeping willows
And lose yourself in me


#DsubVerse

With gleeful violence
We descend upon the feast
To devour in malevolent fury
The undefended sustenance
As they flee before us

#TastyPoem

...
Hold your ground
Stand fast, my friends
Before the oncoming storm
We R a bulwark of honour
Absorbing the impact with impunity

#DimpleVerse

...
Ethereal mists
In half light drift
From their enshrouding drape
Herons take flight
Slicing the air
To seek the dawning light

absolutely sensational prose lady Winter.

Weave your spell

Slow n easy

A landscape set ablaze
Nature's bonfire 2 the glory of Autumn's fall
B4 Winter's ice freezes our world
We bathe in fiery warmth
#ShapePoetry

...

Spun from candy cotton nightmares
Something's coming
Slithering from a demonic womb
It's howling scream to shatter the night

#MadCarnival

...
Freedom breathes its peace into my soul
Gentle slide of invisible fingers
To rifle my tumbling locks
Blowing in the open air

#SableSwanV

...
Above the burning shoreline
High upon a cliff
Sentinels gaze in silent condemnation
Of the thieving smugglers
Stealing ashore
#SenseWrds 172

...
Moonlight spiders
shimmer
in the willow leaves
as they weave night's web

@MercurialNight

- Willow at Night: DeviantArt

Starlight captured in shimmering strands
To mesmerise my unwary eyes
Draw me deeper
Tempt me from my path
Entrancing my soul

@Banquozghost

@MercurialNight
Deeper
ever deeper
I sink
the entwining sigh sublime
this enchanting light
that calls
draws me far away
from mundane cares

...

Within your shimmering gaze
Are rain clouds gathering
To drench
In a flood of tears
Your ashen cheeks
At this our last farewell
#ShapePoetry

...
Tread with care, friend
Beware the demon behind the smile
''Tis not only gold they'll steal
2 the Carnival
Yr ripe 4 plucking

#MadCarnival

..
Steadfast courage draining fast
Gaze fixed upon a beckoning siren
Icy glide of nails down your spine
Dare U follow your doom?

#MadCarnival

...
I thought I could
U proved me wrong
Making me beg
Yr lowest triumph
I gave U the power
U took full measure
All of me
U just took

#dsubverse


...
Clouded by darkness
Lost in the shadows
He patiently waits
Though aeons may pass
Appetite unappeased
For U he shall count the hrs
#DarkLines

...

Ethereal shadows float
On the edge of consciousness
Corporeal memories fading
Wisps of life dwindling
Unwilling to x that bridge

#DarkLines

...
Flickering beacons beckon
Smugglers on the prowl
From the shadows they rise
To salvage a fortune
Or risk their necks
On the noose

#Ashverse

...

Temptation spills forth
Drowning inhibitions
Swamping my parched senses
In a lake of desire
Quench my thirst
If you but dare

#DsubVerse

...

Come lie beside me
Here in the meadow
& we shall talk
Of distant places
Forgotten faces
Turning the pages
Gently
Of our memories
#SableSwanV

...
Blown in upon a predatory wind
To suffocate the cotton candy joy
Marauding carnivores run wild
Leaving a barren pitiless waste
#MadCarnival

...

Embrace the night
The Stygian gloom
Wrap it tight
Drown yr fear
Behind the scenes
Hidden in shadow
Lurks that which U fear most
#MadCarnival

...

Brushing my senses
Talons scrape
Searching
My weakness
Seeking
My downfall
Beware their smiles
Evil incarnate
Close encounters
#MadCarnival

...

Transfixed by the gaping hole
I tumbled in
My scream echoing
Endlessly I fell
My mind shattering
From an abyss without escape

#horrorprompt

...

Forgive me
I whispered
Crumpled on my knees
Fervent gaze urgent
Guilt a cross I now must bear
Your pain a knife to my heart

#SenseWrds 173

...
One small sin
2 cast such a shadow
Dogging my steps
A poisonous shadow
A festering sore
2 be lanced
Set free
In urgent confession
#AsymLife


...
Prowling forward in shaded stealth
Leaning 2 brush an icy kiss of death
Unheeding my predatory poison
Waiting hungrily on my lips
#DarkLines

...
Lash me with an insatiable tongue
I shall not bend
Nor kneel to yr will
Bind me tight
In knots of desire
Capture my mind
Tease me
#DsubVerse

...

Smoke & fury
Upon a wind blown horizon
A fiery glow in the night
Shadows writhe
Upon exhausted faces
This one hell of a night
#SenseWrds 174

...
Fallen
They whispered
Beyond all grace
Lost to the world
For now
Fortunes Wheel spun
Cast out
Who once was high
Now brought low
