Thomas King Jan 2018
Two peas in a pod
We share the same space
Happily enjoying
This time and this place

Side by side we now sit
Brought together by fate
Comfortable and cozy
In our pod on a plate

Not a care in the word
Like teens on a first date
But both praying inside
Neither one of us gets ate…
Thomas King Jan 2018
Where hast thou gone?
Sweet innocents of youth
Thy reverence of purity
And subservient of truth

With poisoned treachery
Thy essence perverted
Ignorance and jealousy
Thy Inner beauty subverted

Heavy upon sharp thorn
My trust doth lie
Heart heavy with burden
Tears of anguish I now cry

Unknown to thyself
Thy sweet self dost deceive
I know not my place
To my fatherhood I now bereave

How sweet and lovely
Dost thou make the shame
Never say that I was false of heart
As easy might I suffer myself the blame.

This I do vow,
And this shall ever be;
I will be true, and love eternal
Despite thy betrayal of thee.
Thomas King Jan 2018
Eyes look into the mirror
Expecting to see truth
But only emptiness is reveled

Words whispered into the night
Echo back screaming
In desperation to be heard

Arms reach out for comfort
Expecting to hold
But only the nothingness
Returns their embrace

A breath of hope
Escapes trembling lips
But is heard as a sigh
Of loneliness and despair

A dream ready to be lived
But from the nightmare
A tortured soul
Will never wake
Thomas King Jan 2018
Incandescent radiance illuminates dark eyes
under the cover of stars and moon.

Elegant silhouettes emit passionate luminescence
like sparkling pools of liquid desire.

Profound and intense is the emotional and spiritual fornication,
ethereal beings igniting divine fervent fire within.

Vivacity and exuberance
dance wildly on an expectant wind
as it carries their loving sounds across the expanse
of an endless adoring night sky.
Thomas King Jan 2018
The infinite dreams
Of a beautiful mind
And the visions of love
Held within

Can give forth
Immeasurable powers of beauty
And kindness to the soul
Feeding an unyielding passion
For life

If given a chance
To be thought
And then realized…
Thomas King Jan 2018
Beautiful creature
Thou hast stolen my heart
And imprisoned my soul

Tempt not the power of my passion
For thy fragile heart
Shall not weather the storm
My love produces

Like a tempest
It shall sweep thee from thy feet
Spinning thee wildly in blissful chaos

Tears of my joyful enlightenment
Shall rain upon thy silken hair
Soaking thy delicate skin
With my deluge of affection

The sound of my beating heart
Shall reverberate within thy being
Like thunder echoing the words
Of my eternal devotion

Alas the completeness of my love
Shall strike thee like a bolt of lightning
Piercing thy heart

And with explosion of light
Thy eyes shall illuminate brightly
As my love scorches thy heart
And my passion sears thy soul.
Thomas King Jan 2018
Eerie voices creeping around corners and eaves,
laughing and whispering their promise of the coming storm.

Crying frustration at the trees that grasp but can not hold,
tearing leaf from limb as it passes.

Turbulent passage through alleyways and streets,
spiraling into devils against all who dare resist.

Carried away with reckless abandon into the night
and blowing straight to the sea
to rejoice as a gale to finally be free…..
