Easing the Ache. (sensual foot rub)

DieingEmbers Nov 2012

Easing the Ache. (sensual foot rub)

Come in sit down kick off your shoes
I'll rub those weary feet
lay back relax forget your blues
and feel my body heat
Eyes shut hush now words have no use
as I attend you slow
Skirt raised to knees and blouse hung loose
and hushed breath breathed low
Legs part knees bend and eyes roll back
my fingers cause new pains
lace touch on silk as muscles contract
as nought but my touch remains
Lights out door locked and clothes removed
two bodies joined as one
for with my hands your body soothed
and all thoughts of sleep now gone

Quilt of Dreams

DieingEmbers Dec 2012

Quilt of Dreams

Dream of me softly
as you lay
warm
amongst the remnants of yesterday...

off cuts and scraps
of whispered promises
stitched
and woven lovingly together...

a patchwork quilt of shared kisses
beneath stars
and one anothers
gentle gaze...

as you sleep
wrapped within our moments
shared
warm and safe...

dream only of me.

Where Did My Childhood Go

DieingEmbers May 2013

Where Did My Childhood Go

With these eyes
I've watched
woodlands become housing estates
wetland drained
it's wildlife killed
fields plowed by roads
and hedgerows and ancient stones
torn down
and
with these eyes
I've wept
for the village
of
my childhood.

Clockwork child with neon eyes
you've seen so many things
the death of man and fallen skies
and winter born of spring

Your clockwork mind predicted all
but man was far too dumb
to heed your words upon the wall
and so you just kept sthum

Your clockwork heart broke like a Child
as nature payed the price
and now the dead are neatly piled
beneath a world of ice

Maybe it won't be computer error that ends it all

The Haggis Hunters

DieingEmbers Sep 2012

The Haggis Hunters

They chase them down
through field and town
intending then to eat em'
with plastic forks
and champagne corks
they wallop and they beat em'

They chase by day
and most the night
though I can't understand em'
through thistle grass
and snowy pass
with knives they roughly brand em'

With Caber tossed
and y-fronts lost
these skirted men assault em'
big burly men
with beards yer ken
you really cannot fault em'

With claymore sharp
and Scottish harp
they catch and set to roast em'
with whiskey ryes
And blood shot eyes
these hunters fair do toast em'

Yer ken do you understand

Haggis a Sheeps stomach stuffed with offal a Scottish food

Sweet Nothings

Sweet Nothings

Lend me your ears
that I
may whisper
such sweet nothings
with little more
than
a hushered breath
it's touch
lingering but a moment

to long

upon your lobe
naked now
of all pretense and flattery

my lips graze
spreading ripples
of pleasure

my tongue
probes teasing
as my kiss or' whelms you

open mouth ... closers

nibbling lightly
upon the phallas
of your *****

my breath heated now
my lips wet

and in my mind I wonder

are yours?

Better Off Without Me

DieingEmbers Mar 2012

Better Off Without Me

I gave my love a letter
written in my tears,
that said it would be better
had we never had these years.

I placed in on her pillow
as she took her bath,
the tears stung like willow
when I heard her childlike laugh.

My heart now softly shattered
my eyes were burning red,
for once my love had mattered
or so her sweet lips had said.

I heard footsteps and weeping
her voice said don't turn round,
was I just not worth keeping
so you cut the ties that bound.

I turned and held her softly
and whispered in her ear,
I thought you didn't need me
and my illness and my fear.

She slapped my face hard screaming
that's not your choice to make,
her tears were softly streaming
as I saw her heart there break.

In sickness and in health dear
my promise to you true,
so let this be one less fear
that I take away from you.

I wrote my love a letter
she gave it back to me,
she said i'll make you better
cause I'll never set you free.

Buttercups and Daisies

Buttercups and Daisies

You playfully
tease your hair
back over your ears
and smile that bubblegum smile,
your tongue
in the corner of your mouth
you're thinking...

a penny for them I say
you laugh
and turn away blushing.

I reach for you
but pause
taking time to take you in...

breathing you in
upon a floral scented breeze

your hair is buttercups and daisies
tied in poesies
with chocolate box ribbons

your summer dress is dreamtime
sewn anew
from bedroom curtains

your bare feet freedom and frivolity
nails painted green
poking fun at conformity

and you...

You are mine as much as a man can own the wind
or tame the wild mountain river

but you are mine
and I...

I am yours until such time as you no longer love me.

Gypsy ( for Lily Mae )

Gypsy...

dance for me
bare foot
within my mind

and

play the music
soft and slow
of
mountain stream and pine

weave daisy chains
around my heart
place
bluebells in my eyes

and

dance and sing
forever free
beneath
these open skies.

Unclaimed

How many times
have I read your words
and
found myself crying
wishing openly
to claim them to my heart
to ink my replies
with kisses
to love them not merely like them
how often have others
seen yet unseen
their meaning
and yet I know them
I have felt them
longed to acknowledge them
openly
yet no not now not yet
for this is not the times for tears
as I once more
read again your words.

Unrequited Love is it more painful than love never known? I wonder

Oh clockwork child with inkwell eyes
that penned mens doubts in promised lies
and watched as all that's born now dies
for nothing more than greed

Oh clockwork child with parchment hands
that mapped the hearts of war torn lands
and bleached the blood stained foreign sands
where children came to bleed

Oh clockwork child with torn page skin
that kept the scores of all mens sin
of wars they lost they could not win
as if they gave a ****

Oh clockwork child with gilt edged breath
who's whispers were the screams of death
that Rose the corpses from the depths
to herald the end of man

False Joy

A florescent moon
hangs high
above
the multicoloured
twinkling stars...

where angels and faeries dance
proclaiming hope
and peace
in flashing neon.

Synthesised choirs sing
as plastic bells
pretend to chime.

Yet
I stand alone
beneath the mistletoe
blowing kisses
hoping they reach you
in time

for Christmas.

and chase away

that offers me such sweet respite

to watch you once more

Made your bottle, your ***** changed
your teddy bears all rearranged
winded you and made you giggle
yet you cry and wiggle jiggle

jam on dummy treacle maybe
what's a matter precious baby
rode a mile on grand daddies knee
yet still you cry persistently

have you a tummy ache my pet
then cuddle close and pray don't fret
grand dad will hold you till it's gone
my love my life my sweetest one.

Button those lips painted with lies

I'm tired and want to rest
just come lay by me this night
and listen to my breast
is that not the sound of laughter
not the ache of given tears
so now and here after
box away your foolish fears

I'm here beside you in good bad or worse girl
For this is it this is life not the rehearsal.
