Night falls fast
Will you as well?
Or will you rise

Taking flight
Soaring above
The dying light

Of a flickering flame
Almost lost in the dark
As night falls to snuff the spark

When the flame burns
the white bird soars
like smoke in the dark
when the beast prowls
the deep rainy night
blocking my path
demanding attention

stardust flames
fueling, defenestrate
from his honey eyes

You're my light
In the night
That brings me home

Some days you're all that remains
To keep my rusty chains
Tethered in my dark mind

You hold me from breaking
And making
My fire go out

Tonight, the ocean rises. All the water it holds turns into fire, & it rises.
By dawn, the cold blue flame of the ocean touches the newly orange skies, & bleeds into the rising sun.
The coming days see a different sun shine, the earth bathed in its blue-orange light.

She walks with
Barely restrained fire
A path of flame and ember
Embrace her inferno and
disgrace
Until no hesitancy
Remains

The flame hung
like dreams in colour
Death came close
in a beautiful contradiction
It didn’t fly
like it could have done
Maybe it wasn’t meant
to get real
Just chasing starlight
in the rain

THE KISS
waiting seems forever
Memories fade to nothing
The taste eternally
Left it mark in seconds
Standing just inches
Apart tension rising
Staring into each other
Then leaning in...
The sweet moist electric
Pulse lifted my gut
To my throat...
As our tongues collided

WRITERS
~
Papers are pale
Take my skin
As parchment
~
Pens are subtle
Take my bones
To express the complex
~
Need indelible flow of ink
My veins are ozzing out sapphire

Pour thy sentiments!!

Summer sunset reflects
in flowing ink,
magnetic voices
finding forgiveness
in complex words.

I'm not proud of what I've done, but I won XD Whales were a thing the whole night, and I can't remember how it started.

she has always been
my lunar companion
whether a summer soldier
or reigning as winter's queen
how beautifully she shines
in every phase of my life
& only she knows
all the secrets I contain
for she pulls from my soul
every blue note writ in bones

Her willowy limbs
a dreamer’s vision
of woman’s power
to crumble him
into appreciation
he never knew
existed in his heart

Ethereal smiles
in dreamful grace,
solasta orchestras
in a wild, secret place:
woodlands.

Step by step
Day by day
Are we getting ready
to our last song
when life passes through
our eyes
don't let final note
be love song on paper
meet head on with smile
I am ready my

Fugacious weepings,
splintered virga,
imponderous
darkberry butterflies
in endless pocketfuls
of heartstrings' notes.

Of smoke and shadows shall U be
conjured from mysterious splintered reality

Ensnared fascination in a world gone mad
you’re a wicked illusion - a soul gone bad

So come lie with me in this cruel endless dream
where everything is tumbled - not what it seems

Yesterday's tears
are yet to dry

My heart draws
on every ounce
of inner strength
& warns me
of sudden yet slow
curves ahead
between us

Beware! Unexpected
detours of indifferent love,
leave no last chance
to exit unscathed.

Estranged somnambulist,
disingenuous
in slowed heartbeats,
takes last detour
forth,
a faltering curve.
