Your love in my soul
All that’s left is your poison
In my veins and heart

I write to you
My dreams
On a parchment
Lavender scented
Pour my soul
Searing with desire
My secrets ooze
With blazing ink
& bold words

Your love
Breathtaking sundown
Sprinkled in hues
Of yellow, orange and mauve
Wonderfully wrapped
In my heart
Singing the song
Of balmy summer

Touch the soul
Cautiously
For the feelings
Are highly flammable...

I think I was wrong
When I thought
We were in love
As we laughed
Perhaps it was nothing
That my heart
Throbbed in its cage
When you said
I was special
Perhaps the feelings
Making me giddy
Were naught
I hope
You’d notice
When I’m gone
Not definitely
Maybe…

Lost in the cask
Honey dipped
His voice
Whispered
Drawn upon the skin
Ants of ***** yearnings
Zigzag
Like fingerprints
On the stained glass
Clouded with hesitation
I fell hard
For his sinful eyes

That little girl in photograph

Broken front tooth
& a cheesy smile

A sad gaze
And a lopsided head
Begging for solace

I’m weary
Of everything
I’ve been through
I wish freedom
I wish you let go
Of my liberty
I wish you set me free

I lie down beside you
Fingers brush
Like soft petals
Teaming with love
We catch autumn leaves
Falling around
I trace the curves
Of your face
Delighting in your smiles
Gazing into
The eyes so blue

Moonbeams shine
In ur jade eyes
Lighting in the dark
They held such fondness
Every way
I wish to wrap
The delicate moment
In my fist forever

The woman in me
Battered & broken
Blown away to hopelessness
By tempest of your self
The scars you gave
Purple, red, blue
On my brown skin
Your rage knew no bounds
Blind to my ****** tears
Seeker of augmented self-esteem
You left me
A tattered being
That none wants

I hold grudges
I hold my tears
Keeping it all
In my heart
It doesn’t help
To let it go
It taught me
All that I need to know

Her raised gaze

He saw wavelets
Brimming

About to roll down
But didn't
Her smile was the reef

I turned
To look at you
Our eyes met
My infatuated heart
Throbbed
Your smile enslaving
Nagging at my heart strings

Her sparkle
Her twinkling smile
Dimmed the diamonds
Shimmering bright

I like to steal
Broken crayons
Strewn undesired
Color my dull life
In myriad colors
Of emotions

Resting beside you
Like laid in the embers
Hidden fire emerges
Of passion untold
Blazing my skin
Burning a hole in my hide
Reaching my soul
Till we are dust
And shadow
Of forgotten dreams

They say
The sea
Returns
What it takes
It didn't return you, somehow

I feel the passion
Of your fingers on my skin
As you touch me light

Often I find myself
Looking at my distorted image
In the fragile glass shards
Trampled like a rose
Glistening with dewdrop

Hidden in a smile
He resides
Inside me
And the way
He makes me feel
I call out, “Lucifer!”
Trying to feel him
His arms
The ornaments
Around my throat
Clasping tighter
Reaching
Into the flames
Burning inside me
Drawing me
Into the cold numbness
He knows
I’ll be home

Fall in love again
Beyond all stop, all delay
Love never falters

I crave to be near you
Basking in the warmth
Of your balmy love
Your azure eyes burn
Like icy fire
When you smile
You make the brightest night
Thoughts of you
Set my heart on fire
Embers of my heart
Thawing my frozen heart
Burned out hate
Love ignites till sparks fly
During my darkest day

We snuggle like bunnies
Under the harvest moon
In the blanket like cocoon
Unable to decide
Which is warmer
Our love
Or the wrap
That we put

Your burning gaze
Simmers my being
In fiery ardor
Gives me charcoal edges
So fragile
To fall to pieces
At your touch

Stars in night sky
Shimmer as opal
& the river
Sings our songs
Raindrops
Leave their aroma
Smeared on us
As we sit
Enamoured by each other

Rises above
Her bellowing flared skirt
Her face
Did burn bright
She would never quit
Never will she not
Light her own **** fire

Wrapped in lace & satin
Your cold body
Enjoying my warmth
In sugarcane fields
I make tattoos on you
Beautiful tattoos
In coppery sweetness
Of my fingers
As I trace writhing maggots
Where your heart could be

And in that moment
Of cosmic silence
Naught existed
But you & me
& the fervent throbs
Of the core
Of our existence

The moon is hiding
Behind her ebony hair
The strand shines like silver

I hold you
In my lap
You close your eyes
Blood withdrawn
From your cheeks
Your ashen lips
Enticing me
To draw the dagger out
That I put
In your heart

I write my heart
At 2 am
It’s effortless
& calming
All around
The darkness
Matches mine
That I find
Reaching inside

It shines all around
Over the golden corn
We stand in the fields
In our coats so wet
Kiss me under the ashen skies
The harvest moon looks on

Your love
Touched me
Lightly so
Like butterfly kisses
The blooming petals
& marvels
In the sweet nectar
Inspired me
To see myself
In better light

They say
A lot
They believe
We can’t fly
They don’t know
Lack of wings
Was never an impediment
Imaginations
Never required feathers

I wish to speak out
My heart to you and my pain
My God, hear me plead

Tap a rhythm
Of the beats
Of your heart
Look for heaven
In your soul
Take a journey
Into your psyche
Shine in the splendor
Of your own light

It's been a long time now
That you'd told me
How much you love me
My fingers ache
To feel you 'tween
My lips, to taste
Peaches at yours

I paint it
All black
Grim heart
Tied to yours
That chain
Is everlasting
No hope
Of rescue
I get drowned
In deep abyss

I met you at the bar
Our hands brushed
& I sensed it in my heart
Looming heavy
That’s when I knew
This dangerous encounter
Will consume my being
In its fiery passion

Stay
As I #found you
Your silk scraping
Along my lace
Entwined
Wrapped in scent
Of sweat
& fervor
To consummate our desires

The voices in my head
Tearing me apart
In its sharp talons
As I ***** in vain
For respite from all
I find solace
Wrapped in banshee arms
As she cries out loud
Heralding what to come
I revel in her stars

I wanted to pluck stars
For your eyes
But I fell
Just a rung short
So I plucked roses
From the rose bush
As pink
As the blush
On your cheeks

To run away
From chained breaths
I vie
For sweet freedom
To erase nightmares
It won’t stop
Till I erase
That haunts me

Your words that draw me
In best colors of universe
Beautiful beyond all people

He found his answers
In her hesitation
Reflected in the flush
At her cheeks
Under the overcast sky

We live
In isolation
Surrounded by souls
Yearning sanctuary
To take shelter
Chained & bound
No hopes to recover
From dungeon
Of hopelessness

Your tongue strokes
My shuddering petals
Unwrapping my ardor
Your breath
Evokes sensations
Of cool zephyr
On my blazing skin
& I melt like cream
For your tongue

I felt you
In the waves
I felt your love
On the pyre
This pang of separation
I want to be free
To bleed out my pain
Hold on tight
To the overdose
The relentless searing
Of ardor

It's so easy

To fall in love
With you, my muse

Tempting me
To write you
In verses galore
