Coven

No need to ******
Came a willing lamb
Snap your unused lures
And paint my empty wool

Ballad

Black sticky balm
Percussions drum
It's flaming calm

Sweet icy chips
Sharp notes *****
Metallic lit

Red velvet voice
Seductress nice
What relished vice

Emily Starr Oct 2023

Phoenix

My chest of ash
And hopeless dreams
In anger burned
In spite of meat

My flaming heart
And heated head
Defiance fed
A sparking wish

Emily Starr Oct 2023

Trust

It started small
Like filigree

It bound the heart
A slushing sea

A pebble thrown
And contents poured

It filled again
And it was stone

Right

The south is fading
And grasses grey
The thistles pale
All minds they stay

Emily Starr Sep 2023

Era

One for wonder
And one for dust
One inspires
The other tires
One is nearer
Yet less dearer
All are timeless
None to stay

Emily Starr Sep 2023

One

In youth
It was
A hopeful

Plot

For all
That was
To be

In aged
It is
Regretful

Thoughts

That fill
The gap
Of me
