A Portrait Of You
An image built in echoes . . . Souls and songs Lay entwined in leaves A garden so bountiful Grew within me, Red tulips fell from my lips As I declared my acceptance With a kiss. You were made of flowers A potpourri of sentiments so rich, Dripping with carnations, A vibrant red. An […]
A Hypothesis Of Emotions
Untold threads of the unspoken . . . The scent of petrichor, The intense heat, The ashes of your emotions Tasted so sweet A bitterness I consumed With a hungry need. Colored upon your face with eager words A book I could have read a thousand times over, Unexpressed and unsaid A story told […]
Gilded Ashes
Madness within devotion . . . Rustic and golden, You were the vintage of an era long forgotten Something untouched, Frozen, An echo, a whisper lost in the spirals of time, A distraction built to perfection And wrapped in mischief Your eyes lit up with all the decadence of the richest of wines. I […]
Unseen Battles
Battlegrounds of the lost and forgotten . . . Too much, Too less, Too little, Too late, Arguments lost Battles ill-fated All fought on hollowed grounds Built with broken pieces. We need no enemies No hurdles No barricades We are the architects of our misery The poorly made parody A source of amusement To […]
Our Twisted Needs
A metamorphosis of death and desire. . . . With bristles of gossamer Dipped in tar You painted me in pitch black And wrapped me up in scars, Wrapped in the finest of silks Draped in liquid red I was everything that you despised, Yet wanted. Weaved in barbed wires, Luminescent ties, In the […]
The Burning Astronauts
From your bones I built my planet . . . Within the cosmos, Between the stars, Blinded by the burning comets, The scarlet tail, Its icy shards, I was afloat in the dark. Spinning out of axis, I dove into galaxies, Within its spiraling arms. Illuminated in Jupiter’s misery, The unlit star, I fell […]
Colored In Red
Painted in iridescence . . . . I see colors, Vibrant and true. I see colors, Bleeding through. Hues of black, and blue, Dripping with reds, Mixed in with whites, Painting a pretty disguise. I watched, Stories dipped in grey, Formed from the ashes of their own decay. I watched, Lies oozing black, A sulfurous […]
Unbound and Unclaimed
A tale that transcends time . . . She danced Upon the sunny dunes, Twirled beneath the shady trees. Her hair blew behind her, A stormy cloud. I watched enchanted, The beats of the daf Matched the beats of my heart. Her arms moved gracefully, Fingers tracing a passionate story only few could read. The […]
Violet Desires
Your needs painted upon my soul . . . I met you ages ago, An eternity perhaps. Maybe I always knew you, A loving secret, Kept under wraps. I met you when time ceased to exist, When worlds collapsed. Breathless, I reached out to you, The world glowed in embers. We watched captivated, Entranced. […]
Of Lost Dreams
We can be a princess, We can be a queen, We can be everything in between. We will slay dragons, Fight with kings, Win battles and wear pretty things. Dreams by the dozen we carry, Fields of wildflowers and trees of cherry. Dancing and twirling amongst the stars, Sliding down rainbows, Driving shiny cars. […]
