Within the bed of embers
lays the heat

The fire never really dies when there's someone willing to fan it. Word play and double meanings my favourite style

Crying in the Rain
DieingEmbers May 2012
What emotion is this ?

This tideless ocean
that breaks nightly
upon
scotch stained rocks...

as I drowned my sorrows

reflecting upon
mine own repulsion
of myself

in spillage soaked emultion.

Bartab grows
bearing teeth of broken glass
as late night melancholy
bites me in the ***

The jukebox
offers his ten cents worth

Pour me a drink and I'll tell you some lies

change the record
pull the plug
pay off the stranger with the cigar **** eyes.

One more for the road
and maybe I'll leave

for there's too many ghosts
wearing out hearts
on their sleeves...

For my hearts the Titanic
smashed on fresh ice

as I head out in the rain storm
to take the Everlys advice.
Just a few songs that have been favourites during my many adolescent broken hearts, how many did you cry too?

His Kiss
DieingEmbers May 2012
Teeth graze salt
from trembling
bottom lip...

head thrown back
neck exposed

his tongue tastes
her need
in heat of sweat...

as he plays soft
upon
Wanton lips

his kiss.

Method in the Madness

How can I ever understand the mind of a woman

when it's so cluttered with shoes and **** scatter cushions
No offence ladies but what's the fascination with shopping

Dreams
DieingEmbers Jun 2012
Speak to me in kisses
in the
warmth of breathy sighs
and show
to me the beauty
of a life spent in your eyes
as on borrowed wings
and promises
our bodies fall and rise
so bind me earthbound baby
with your hair
of soft spun gold...

now speak to me
in silence
with hands
I long to hold,

press me for an answer
against
your skin so fair
as I dream upon your bussom
of the love
we long to share.

All I Have
DieingEmbers Nov 2012
The birds have song
the flowers scent
but all I have
is earned and spent
so take my arms
and my embrace
my gentle kiss
upon your face
and keep them all
as I O U
to prove my worth
and my loves true

Up in Smoke
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
without wings she arose...

Virginal in white
casting shadows on my heart,
for like smoke I could not hold her
she writhed between my trembling fingers
Leaving her scent upon me.
Sometimes what the heart wants the hands can't hold

Heart in a Bottle
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
I wrote upon the paper
all the things I cannot say,
then I placed it in a bottle
and threw my heart away.

I prayed the gulls would guide it
to that scenic little bay,
where my love awaits in silence
the heart I threw away.
Hope she got it

What Need Have I Of Clothes
DieingEmbers Nov 2012
I love to wear your arms around my neck
and
your legs around my waist...

I love to wear your open mouth upon my lips
and
your scent all over me...

I love to wear your body close to mine
but most of all
I love to wear the smile you gave me.

B-reath
DieingEmbers Mar 2013
You took my breath away
for a souvenier
and kept it in a shell
to hold against your ear
to hear again sweet nothings
in the night or endless day
and to hear I love you whispered
as I in turn... take your breath away
DieingEmbers Mar 2013
Somewhere

there's a bullet

engraved with

Snow white
waits
as seven little men

The snows arrived and so have the icicles
DieingEmbers Nov 2012
As looks will surely fade

whereas

laughter lasts a lifetime
A comment I made on The Undead Faery Girls poem Tough Guys it just sounded like a 10w poem lol
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
Did my ears
mistake the sounds
of the wind
and rain
for your sweet voice...
whispering soft
I love you.

Or did my heart
just paint
those three words
upon your silken lips.

I know not
the truth of it
but let me in a kiss
a touch
speak clearly in return
when I say...


I love you.

You belong to him...?
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
Last night you said I love you
as the stars began to dim
and I know it's me you dream of
as you lay alone with him.
For he offers nothing to you
and there's nothing you would take,
cause you are mine forever
and it's me for whom you ache.
He may share your moments
but it's the moments shared with me,
that give you sweet release dear
and sets your feelings free.
So long you longed for someone
to let you live again,
so take from me my aching
as I take from you your pain.
For now I cannot hold you
as you belong to him,
but tonight I'll say I love you
as the stars begin to dim.

Don't Say Goodbye
DieingEmbers Sep 2012
You arise
as I take your place
to feel your warmth once more,
your pillow still fresh
with scent and dreams
comforts me as I pull tight your sweet embrace
trapped
within soft cotton folds,
smiling as I am all consumed within you
you return and sigh
bending low to kiss once more before leaving  
lips that  have yet to speak
for fear the word

goodbye.

Insomnia
DieingEmbers May 2012
The ***** raked her silver nails
across my sweat stained skin,
and whispered softly in my ear
too late you let me in.

You fed me dreams and nightmares
and let me feast too long,
and now my hold upon you
is far too ****** strong.

I swallowed whole your eyelids
as you stared at me in pain,
your nights are mine forever
as I tug ******* your chain.

Put down the pill and water
stop counting rotten sheep,
For I am your tormentor
and for you there is no sleep.

The ***** raked her silver nails
across my sweat stained skin,
as her words returned to haunt me
too late you let me in.
