My kiss
DieingEmbers May 2012
What truths were found
within my kiss

soft reflected in your eyes,

that spoke my heart
in silent tone

and echoed in your sighs.

Speak not in words
thy tender need

for silence so profound,

and let the comfort
of my kiss

be forever where truths found.

Lovers Prayer
DieingEmbers Apr 2012
You asked
and I afraid to answer
backed away
with muted tongue
and trembling lips
unsure of what to say
so press me not
nor question me
again like this I pray
just know I long
for your sweet touch
all night and through each day
for you are my ache
and wanton need
so I will silent stay
DieingEmbers Mar 2013

She is Unfathamable
DieingEmbers Oct 2012
I dip my toe in
tentatively testing the tranquil  waters
of her soul,
waters I have tasted
so often upon her sleeping eyes
and soft spoken lips...

how I long to lose myself
within their depths


Forever

Sticks and stones may break my bones
but words can crush and pierce me...

for no blade er' cut as deep as rapier tongue
nor hammer strike beaten down a man
as when you screamed
goodbye


Or

Sticks and stones MAY break my bones
but a swift kick in the ***** WILL HURT YOU
Just thought someone should silence that stupid chant but words will never hurt me course they will they always do best just not to listen

Inner Ache

Room For Two
DieingEmbers Nov 2012
Make room for me
there by your side
that in your arms
I may abide
and all this night
in sweet embrace
be happy that you
made me space
may your lips
and silent prayer
be things that I
may always share
so make some room
and bid me rest
within thy arms
forever blessed.
Lynsie Raines poem Sleep gave me this idea but someone else inspired the words.
DieingEmbers Jun 2012
I taste her tears...

still wet upon her trembling lips
and break

the ache of one so gentle
almost too much to bear.

I kiss her eyes
the pain so tangible runs deep

fresh wounds criss cross older faded scars
upon her ashen cheeks.

I kiss her forehead
and try to tell her... I'm here

she does not hear

as she leaves me without moving
I realise sometimes words are not enough.

You say walk a mile in your shoes...

Fine.

Now you do the same...

Here's mine.

The souls well worn
from front to back...

One size fits all
the colour black.

The leathers aged
and see that crack?

That's paranoid anti social depression...

What

You want your shoes back.
Crack as in cracked meaning mental mad , fit as in bouts of mood or personality swings, black as in depression. And yes one size fits all
Still wanna walk a mile in my shied

Love Lives On
DieingEmbers Jun 2012
If I am found then all is lost
for here my heart
lies pressed
a rose petaled promise.
My voice inscribed
in silent ink
speaks aloud my need
of you
of one more chance
to say

I love you.

Felled by Love
DieingEmbers May 2012
You are the sun
that melts the wax

and I cast down
as Icarus
before me fell

fear not the ground
but only
that you
will not be there...


to catch me.

What Is A Heart
DieingEmbers Jun 2012
Some are ice
          and some are stone
some are untouched
          some never known
some made of gold
          whilst others black
some are taken
           others given back
some are broken
           some incomplete
some are bitter
           while others sweet
some are held
            some are lost
some are given
            Sone are crossed

but mine
                Mine is reserved
                                             for you.
Some not sone at end will edit tomorrow

Time over again
DieingEmbers Sep 2012
The Ifs and buts and sighs and tuts
are all that fill my mind
the why's and when of now and then
have burned my poor eyes blind
the would and should and if I could
have broke me by design
the have and have not and I forgot
that you were never mine
