Mooncatcher - Hello Poetry

Through my life I’ve gathered stones I wear them round my neck The burden of weight gets heavier When my shadow reflects I’m not complaining I don’t shed tears For I strung those stones throughout the years Thinking how when I was young Collecting stones just for fun But how I’ve grown to realise The wrong choices and words can chastise I look around but cannot see Other people just like me You see Everyone must have the same Some more some less but we all have shame I wait for the rain to erode them away But doing so they seem to stay So I guess someday maybe one day I’ll loose a few But not all of them For I deserve to wear my stones Reminding me of wrongful tones So here we are with past regrets Little stones that never forget

Burden

Through my life I’ve gathered stones I wear them round my neck The burden of weight gets heavier When my shadow reflects I’m not complaining I don’t shed tears For I strung those stones throughout the years Thinking how when I was young Collecting stones just for fun But how I’ve grown to realise The wrong choices and words can chastise I look around but cannot see Other people just like me You see Everyone must have the same Some more some less but we all have shame I wait for the rain to erode them away But doing so they seem to stay So I guess someday maybe one day I’ll loose a few But not all of them For I deserve to wear my stones Reminding me of wrongful tones So here we are with past regrets Little stones that never forget

Chains that bind and bite into the weathered skin Beneath the throne of Askona the Queen of sin Her rise to the calling as old Egypt fell Rivers of crimson run from hell As gods of time play their hands What once was golden now lay ****** Slaves to the rhythm of pounding drums Build her a world demised of fun Blackened are the souls beating away For the Queen of hell rules this day With sharpened serpents at her will They bite and stab at the heart so ill Foolish eyes betrayed by lust And promises of gold now just dust How the land weeps away Beneath the shadows of yesterday

When asked should a gentleman Ever eat eggs and ham Upon the back of a baby lamb I guess the answer is no And should my lace be untied What a hoot when a fall precedes pride When all that is required Is a quick knot to be shired So as you can see with me All is not sweet heavenly When pondering thoughts Of mindless dribble

Nonsense

Is everything okay tonight When Love and hate can’t see eye to eye so right And she cries out for love And in the stillness of time Where nothing seems fine The shadows play on her mind And then Whispers of forgotten dreams play Like some old memory machine And the call of a lost heart echoes Inside Desperation holds tight and beneath the dull evening light Her tears sting like never before And then Her hand now reaches out to the call of the wild shout And memories fade into the grey night air

Lost Heart

Is everything okay tonight When Love and hate can’t see eye to eye so right And she cries out for love And in the stillness of time Where nothing seems fine The shadows play on her mind And then Whispers of forgotten dreams play Like some old memory machine And the call of a lost heart echoes Inside Desperation holds tight and beneath the dull evening light Her tears sting like never before And then Her hand now reaches out to the call of the wild shout And memories fade into the grey night air

I love her skin soft like petals of the sweetest rose Her tears like rain drops bathing the flower How I want to touch her more But fear my hatred will once more Raise the monster that now lives Inside this parasite I cannot turn away Excited by her naked form Beaded sweat begins to form Like little drops of morning dew Upon her skin turning to A grey dull sunless sky Now my mind cannot sate The hunger that now anticipates Her skin on mine

Sickness

I love her skin soft like petals of the sweetest rose Her tears like rain drops bathing the flower How I want to touch her more But fear my hatred will once more Raise the monster that now lives Inside this parasite I cannot turn away Excited by her naked form Beaded sweat begins to form Like little drops of morning dew Upon her skin turning to A grey dull sunless sky Now my mind cannot sate The hunger that now anticipates Her skin on mine

Hatred spreads with gilded ease When those around decide to tease For wrath and pain will be the call And death will follow all Into the abyss of hell To live eternal in fire so bright Watch how the flames punish The fools just right Forevermore unto me they will owe everything Dancing round screaming out Is this the heaven they thought right Greed and power brought them here Lies and fear blind eyes once so bright Now the demons dance in plain sight No more prayers or forgive me please You choose this path with so much ease Wanted everything so sour Time to pay in the burning tower Maggot’s writhe in thighs so soft Devour the heart now beating slow Bathed in blood of foolish dreams Here is your nightmare as it seems

Scattered stones upon the ground I watch them as they land Did fate determine the way they roll Or gravity had the pull They make a pattern I can see Confusion has me gripped What if one was too roll some more And let that pattern slip Like life I guess you could say Are we little stones We change our minds and the flow Held here by goodness knows My mind’s all a quandary now Over thinking little stones The way they just lay so still Doing nothing that will show I go back inside to think about Why I even thought Those little stones could even solve My thoughts now seeping out

In the cold air of a winters morn She stood at the docks waiting for him to come home As the rain kissed her face her makeup misplaced And skin now becoming pale In the distance she could see the ship sailing with ease Her heart begins to gather time Tears start to flow mixed with the cold And her cheeks feel the sting of her pride Gathered around amongst the crowd The sounds of many hearts cry For soon they’ll be near The men who once feared The war that took them away Like moths to a flame She knew that one day The love of her soul would he would claim And now the rain falls so hard Without any remorse As the ship starts to berth once more With tissues in hand she wipes away the tears and the cold His cold hands grip the rail as he stands Looking for the love now waiting for him on the dock Together they shall be In the house by the sea No more wars to take him away

Waiting

In the cold air of a winters morn She stood at the docks waiting for him to come home As the rain kissed her face her makeup misplaced And skin now becoming pale In the distance she could see the ship sailing with ease Her heart begins to gather time Tears start to flow mixed with the cold And her cheeks feel the sting of her pride Gathered around amongst the crowd The sounds of many hearts cry For soon they’ll be near The men who once feared The war that took them away Like moths to a flame She knew that one day The love of her soul would he would claim And now the rain falls so hard Without any remorse As the ship starts to berth once more With tissues in hand she wipes away the tears and the cold His cold hands grip the rail as he stands Looking for the love now waiting for him on the dock Together they shall be In the house by the sea No more wars to take him away

The window was open just a bit As the cool breeze danced around the half opened curtains Faint noises from crickets broke the silence Of a peaceful night The moon now awake shines its silver light Causing shadows that seem to dance upon the walls Jasmine blooms filled the air with sweet dreams As memories played out like an old film passed Stillness hung heavy Sleeping through the quiet show not knowing How alive the room could be With all its nocturnal habits parading around Wind chimes dance erratically twirling on old twine that has seen better days just a rusty nail holds them from falling into the parched earth How many memories have they played their songs to unashamed at not always being appreciated but once in a while a little smile would reflect upon them With silent steps the moon moves slow lighting up yet another window So begins another show another memory untold just locked into the nighttime play maybe when sleep is reluctant to sway a soul this could be something to hold True to a heart

Sleeping through

The window was open just a bit As the cool breeze danced around the half opened curtains Faint noises from crickets broke the silence Of a peaceful night The moon now awake shines its silver light Causing shadows that seem to dance upon the walls Jasmine blooms filled the air with sweet dreams As memories played out like an old film passed Stillness hung heavy Sleeping through the quiet show not knowing How alive the room could be With all its nocturnal habits parading around Wind chimes dance erratically twirling on old twine that has seen better days just a rusty nail holds them from falling into the parched earth How many memories have they played their songs to unashamed at not always being appreciated but once in a while a little smile would reflect upon them With silent steps the moon moves slow lighting up yet another window So begins another show another memory untold just locked into the nighttime play maybe when sleep is reluctant to sway a soul this could be something to hold True to a heart

I stare at the empty page hope grips my heart And wonder if the words will flow will there be a start It’s not easy when nothing comes and time stands still Why do you leave me in despair nothing seems to say how I feel or how I care My words just fly away Am I trying just too hard pushing all the while Pages bleed their naked forms **** I can’t even smile Out the window life is abound yeah can’t even write about about the ****** sounds Growing more frustrated blood is gonna boil Then a voice says calm your soul don’t get into so much toil Words find you and they truly will close your eyes and see them sitting still Just wait a little while and it will become clear Then let the heart write them down for all eyes to peer.
