Are my words
            dead,
others no longer
                            linger over them....
 May 2016 Adam Childs
Poetic T
The door never relinquished its grip,
baneful whispers knocked endlessly
non where heard but some screamed.

Clamouring upon senses worth, edging
them towards deliriums shade. Wishing
to open lingering to be again rebirthed.

But wood inscribed knots hidden where
eyes did not linger, few could see what it
forcibly entombed, kept forever concealed.

There are many bushes that linger outside
its view, these are the souls that dared to
knock once now obscured.

It will keep knocking on the veil, waiting
for it true intent now cunningly revealed. 
Who will be its bearer, who will keep it entombed.

*"Can you hear the door knocking will you
seek its shrouded truths,
Don't seek what other do not hear, for what lingers behind this place will be your downfall

who may be counting the messages, on one side?
If it takes five thousand missives to get one response, will you stop, I will continue. I will maintain my course for I do know, love has no bounds, nor limits. I will love you till the breath  and depth , I will love you till the sky weeps continuously, I will make Aphrodite *** in her breeches at my plaintive cries.
With promises to spend our lives together,
Hand in hand we decided to walk
And share each smile, divide the pain
Oh my love, how horribly we have strayed

On separate paths we now walk,
Miles away from each other we are
I see you and yet we are far apart

I know I have hurt you
And seen the pain your eyes
oh how much it hurt me to know
That I was the reason

To right the wrongs I have done
To get back the love I have lost
I need to walk miles, but hon for you
I will

I remember the time in our youth
When we sang and danced together
And that lovely smile would grace you
Which made everything okay

I remember the days we'd walk around
The hills and the valleys, discovering us
With you close to me, the sun never ceased

I'd climb the tallest mountain and
Cross the harshest sea,
Just so you could be with me

I miss that, spending time with you
So busy with work we get that we forget
Living this life to its fullest

And now as I take my last breath,
I see all the times I spent with you
And what more could have been
Alas not in this lifetime.

I wish we could be happy again
Our lips were close, yet never touching
the residue alone became quite addicting....
I finish tearing the seams which lie
When they say you'll never be mine
You tear the stitching in the sky
As your body prepares for pleasure to dine
The pitch in your voice becomes high
As my fingers move down your spine
Weakened when against my ear you sigh
Let us blur and erase our cautious line
Bathe in this feeling and never ask why
