All the love in my heart I give to you sweetheart because,
I love you...
His Love
Shadow Mar 2020
Galaxies have tapestries of stardust
weave each pearl of light
in the rapture of my love
I only ask for one speck
of your scintillating dust
to reach the sphere in my heart
Shadow Mar 2020
I have lost all of myself
I seem not to know me wholly
I feel grinded ,smashed with
a hammer ,I feel stuck between  
two mountains ready to conjoin
I have lost love of nature, love of
the flowing rivers, love of stars
glowing a million light years afar
I have lost the common feel of
Spring and it's sweet scent flowers
I feel as useless as a stone
I feel like a music with out a tone
I have lost my way, I have lost my
slay , I feel like a flawless knight
I feel like a night stripped from it's
stars, I feel like a day with out a light
I have lost the feel of my beloved
I have lost the way to the lips of my
Beloved, I have lost her touch
It feels now like a touch of chill
I have lost the ecstasy in her
I have lost my soul, I have lost my
Flaw, in this punitive , this pang
This Agony, I drink them like ale and
Be weary and drunk in these dreary
Times, and find pleasures in the
Wonders of my illusions.

These are the hands that will guide you to greatness,
These are the hands that will stay through the years,
These are the hands that will celebrate good times,
And these are the hands that will wipe away tears.

These are the hands that will love you forever;
When you are weak they will help you feel strong,
And, right now, since these hands are entwined together
These hands are precisely where they belong
Recently I was asked to write and perform a hand-binding wedding ceremony for two of the loveliest people I know while I was dressed as a dragon. It's definitely one of the best things I've ever done, and I doubt I'll ever do anything like it again! This is the poem I wrote for the special moment.
Shadow Mar 2020
Mine has been a life of much shame.
I can't even guess myself what it must be to live the life of a human being.

Whenever I was asked what I wanted my first impulse was to answer "Nothing." The thought went through my mind that it didn't make any difference, that nothing was going to make me happy.

He could only consider me as the living corpse of a would-be suicide, a person dead to shame, an idiot ghost.

Stores cleared out
Shelves are barren
If you cough
There's people staring

People staying all alone
Because they're hiding
In their homes

The news is stuck
It don't inspire us
All they speak?
Coronavirus!

Yes. It's BAD.
A viral lout
If they're at risk
Folks can't go out!

This is what
I need to say
Don't worry about it!
Kneel & pray!

We're going to know
We're going to see
Trouble economically.

Is this IT!?
It could be, friend.
The straight beginning
Of the end

But there's one thing
That is clear
We cannot be ruled by fear!!

The best thing anyone can do
Is find the Lord....

...let It be YOU!

It is too simple
to pet a stray dog
then watch it run under a car
and say it wasn't mine

It is too simple
to admire a rose
then pick it and forget
to put water in the vase

It is too simple
to use a person
for loving without love
then leave him standing alone
and say I don't know him
anymore

It is too simple
to know one's flaws
then live them at great cost to others
and say that's just the way I am

It is too simple
the way we sometimes live our lives
for after all life simply is
a serious matter
