My Favourite Tattoo
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
You lay sleeping upon my arm
your hair
repainting old tattoos
with soft
new shapes...

your warm breath
re-writing old messages
with fresh
I love you's.

My life reformed forever
in this quiet moment alone
watching you sleep  
my favourite
tattoo.

Smudged Smile
DieingEmbers Jan 2013
Pass me the razor blades
hand me my pills,
fill my glass with *****
I need to cure my ills.

I'm sick of all the smiling
when my tears burn my eyes,
tired of empty laughter
when my laughter rings with lies.

My mask is crumbling
my smile is smudged and run,
God grant me forgiveness
and let this pain be done.
Just feeling down waiting for the meds to work
DieingEmbers Oct 2012
By Hell or high water I will have my say
he screamed as he parted the red faced array
this court is a farce and these lies not worth hearing
as he upturned the tables to riotous cheering
take note I implore you of nothing here said
and strike from your minds that the victim is dead
too true that they beat him and his body broke
but the story their telling is nought but a joke
they read him no rights no lawyer was sought
and his confession forget it it was paid for and bought
The witness their calling as since run away
and all of their evidence is merely hear say
so nothing and no one to here prove thier case
just look with your own eyes at this utter disgrace
they've stripped him and whipped him and all without cause
so just for one moment please won't you just pause
Think very clearly twelve wise men and true
just think that tomorrow this man could be you
so do not convict him for that's what they seek
show some compassion as he did the meek
if you must condemn him remember just this
he was only a scape goat sold out with a kiss
guilty I knew it you folk are all mad
you've taken away the one chance this man had
so take him and **** him for I wash my hands
in the blood of the innocent Lord of this land

You Can Read Me Like A Book
DieingEmbers Mar 2013
I'm a tatty paperback
my covers bent and worn
and all my ink stained pages
are read and roughly torn
there's footnotes in my margins
and typos underlined
and I've been taken out before
but I found it such a bind
my epilogue and prologue
tell so little of my soul
and the ones that misun'stood
have really took their toll
pages torn out to light a fire
that burned so very bright
but only warmed their bodies
for that one forsaken night
my jacket wet with others tears
that lay their hands on me
have left me now in dire need
of love and T L C
Thanks to Jerelli for promoting this one with her poetry.

All Wrapped Up
DieingEmbers Nov 2012
Even bundled up
in wooly hat,
mittens
scarf
and thick winter coat
she looks desirable.
It must be the boots
the knee length
black leather
boots,
she sees me looking
and laughs
and in fain anger turns away...

her pony tail
swish
catches my eye
draws me to follow
engaged steps matching her sway
of hips
she looks back and winks
and I find myself
smiling
for even bundled up
she's still
all woman.

A Waking Dream
DieingEmbers Mar 2013
Would that I could dream
I could picture
nothing
quite as  beautiful than you
no flower
with thy bloom
nor scent
it's caress against my hand
would seem so rough
compared
with thine one sweet hand
no bird song
nor babbling brook
could seemingly replace
the gentleness of your laughter
for tis the very essence
of my every
waking thought
like a sensual lullabye
no tree swaying in the breeze
could dare to match thy matchless grace
for your every movement
like the shimmering heat of the summer sun
playing light upon the watchers eyes
if I could but dream I should never dream
such beauty such as you

Love Disected
DieingEmbers Jan 2013
I want to know what loves about,
to understand it inside out.
What makes it tick what makes it tock,
what makes it roll what makes it rock.
I've got a scalpel and a pen,
to cut then note then cut again.
In honesty I'm not that sure,
this broken heart knows love no more.
I think I've severed any hope,
of knowing how the lovers cope.

She Is Both My Night & Day
DieingEmbers Feb 2013
Ravens in flight
wings spread
wide
against the alabaster
of twilight
clouds
that frame
the gentle pinks
and reds of sleepy subsets
autumn hidden
as yet
behind wisps of midnight blue
waver softly in the warmth
of summers sleeping
breath
as I alone wipe the stars
from sleepy skies
and picture mornings born
from beauty such
as this
taste once more the dew drops
from as yet
closed
Rose petals tips
and smile
leaving it there upon her lips
my sweetest of moments
captured
forever in a single
goodnight
kiss.
DieingEmbers Mar 2013
How can I tell you

I love you ...

when all I long
to do

is kiss you

I beg you

merely press your soft lips to mine
and kiss me

ask me again
if and only if

you cannot find your answer there upon my lips

What's That Smell
DieingEmbers Sep 2012
Her:

Don't kiss me yet first let me brush my teeth

For this is not Hollywood with perfect hair and breath

Him:
I need a moment to *** and scratch myself aloud

Coughing yawning eyes blurred and red and noisily breaking wind

together:

Oh hell let's just kiss tight lipped and eyes closed
Morning breath can really spoil the moment lol **** Hollywood it lied to us again

A Minty Moral
DieingEmbers Dec 2012
You stood on the cliff edge
arms wide
eyes closed
listening to the whistling wind
until the breeze died down
but the music continued
you opened your eyes
and saw me there
sitting
feet dangling, smiling
you looked from me to what lay before you
green hills golden fields and blue skies
beauty personified within one vista
you paused
again looking down to see me leaning
back on my hands
enjoying the warmth of the wintry sun
why are you here
you asked
and waited as I pondered the question
and shocked you with my answer
as I said
the same as you to feel small in the presence
of God but to know he sees me as I did you
you relaxed your arms and sat down
I offered you a mint
don't mind the fluff this coats clean I laughed
you smiled
and though you still don't know why you ate it
yet realised
sometimes
the sweet things in life
are often those offered us freely
with a smile.

Here
upon fresh linen
let me
once more
pen
for thee...

such poetic lyricism
as my tongue
could never say,

let these words like ink
flow freely
from the very heart
of me...

expressing openly
upon this
naked  
cotton canvas
the want and need I bare
for thee,

let its stain
lie
upon thy unburdened flesh
in tattooed hues

for all to see

yet for only

you

and I

to feel.

Love is a Gift
DieingEmbers Dec 2012
She loosened the ribbons
and let the wrapping fall
and showed to me the smile
that really said it all
the gift I gave was laughter
the gift received was love
as I gazed upon her beauty
and breathed in the scent of dove
for her soft skin she had pampered
and moisturised with care
and made of her owb body
a gift we both could share
so long had I forgotten
the pleasure one could find
from a little imagination
and a wild and wicked mind
her gift was given freely
it had only cost her time
and she winked and smiled coyly
as she lay her hand in mine
I don't ask for fortune
and I've no need of fame
when I have such a woman
whom can set my soul aflame
the days may not be rosy
but the nights are always hot
and I can say quite honestly
Im happy with my lot

Let Me Be.
DieingEmbers May 2013
Let me be the razor blade
you glide across your wrist
let me be the bottle
when you long to get ******
let me be the cigarette
you smoke through trembling lips
let me be the calories
You fear upon your hips
let me be the mirror dear
that lies when you undress
let me be the meds you take
when your minds a mess
let me be the phone call
unanswered by a friend
let me be the tear drops
you shed at each days end
let me be whatever
it is you feel you need
coz I will NEVER let you be...

I'll always intercede
Whatever whenever remember you've always got friends on hp.

Stroking The Screen
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
I weep ink
in missing you,
my page lays stained
with fluid blue.

I log on
your face appears,
but your not here
to see my tears.

I reach out
and touch your face,
my fingers soft
your image trace.

Kisses blown
you cannot taste,
through coloured glass
just go to waste.

Time alone
stroking the screen,
whispering soft
how much you mean.

I feel sad
that your not there,
to understand
how much I care.

**** the time
and miles apart,
please just log in
and heal my heart.

So until
tomorrow dear,
I stroke the glass
and dream you're here.

Pained Glassy Stare
DieingEmbers Feb 2012
I gaze into your windows
hoping to catch
a glimpse of you
naked
open,
yet all I see
is my own reflection
staring back
at me.

Let me in I beg
don't close me out
when all I want is to love you

the real you

the you behind the pained glassy stare
afraid to let me see
you naked
laid bare
open to my touch

I gaze once more into your windows
as the blinds come down
condensation runs
over the soft flaking paint
and I sigh

I could dry those eyes
if they would but see me
as I am
a voyuer at her window
looking in
whilst looking out
for just a chance to tell her

how I feel.

as I
slowly
drank in her eyes...

inhaling deeply

upon her lips
in gently shared laughter...

with a touch she stirred us both

how I longed to be that cup
pressed softly
to her open mouth

to play light against her tongue
in fluid exchange...

of porcelain kisses

Can you not see I'm dying

no bullet

dying

to be with you again

Meta-Phwoar
DieingEmbers Sep 2012
She slipped it into her mouth
her teeth
lightly grazing back the skin
allowing the tip of her tongue
to tease the soft warm flesh
Slowing moving it in and out
as she ****** gently upon it
with hungry lips
It's juices flowing over up tilted chin
and softly squeezing fingers
she felt it pop
filling her throat with what she craved...


sweet juicy hot dog ******

Sticky Peach ( adult )
DieingEmbers Feb 2012
Sweet dreams of you
sweat drenched
scented by natural perfumes
overload my senses
as I again inhale you...

breathing you in with open mouth
tasting the warmth of kisses
from muted swollen lips.

Tongue seeking to give you voice
            as sighs erupt into pleasures moans...

Back contorts
consorting with my fingers
tracing curves
wet from my touch.

Your hand gives me the heads up
and down
and up again
tongue lapping liguid kisses
teasing with tip
further scent from swollen bud...

your nails rake my shoulders
as you buck
an unbroken mare
fighting the bit
yet bit you were and nibbled grazed
teeth tentatively tugging
fleshy folds
as rivulets of passion coated my chin.

Sticky from your peach
I rise and share with you the taste
in our first oral kiss.

Why are depressives good dancers?
because

Night greets day
with gentle kisses...

slow dancing
within her star lit ballroom

they move slowly

her body close but unattainable

ribbons of light bring them together
yet never to touch...

dreams shared

as once more
she sheds her tears

to be wished upon





by earthbound lovers

that share their pain.
Two bodies kept about by circumstance
DieingEmbers Jan 2013
Even now/ at this ungodly hour/
doth morning seem so far away and yet/ so near /// somewhere twixt nights caress and soothing
balm of twilights touch /
by heavens intervention am I spared the ache /
nay the pain / of your light absent from my
darkest hour // then away and rend the very veil of monstrous stars that wouldst with all intent / make mockery of my tears / mirrored here now / upon these ashen cheeks / tear down the moon whom by her very presence doth afflict my mournful heart / for in her beauty art thou found / art thou not found// be gone / fleshless phantoms of thoughts of one for whom I would willingly die one thousand times and one thousand more / for is not the agony of each tortureous night / alone // not likened to sweet death / and I have died so oft I can ner' count the times / be merciful sweet dawn / arise // arise and with your rising raise my spirits/ for I am lost amongst the shadows of this night / and in it's shadows hide myself from all but thee / and she / she that but with a word / a glance / a touch / may free me from this Hell / and let me one more but for a moment set my sight on paradise. ///
/ pause // medium pause /// long pause of breath

His wandering soul
DieingEmbers Oct 2012
No Romany is he
but he owns a wandering soul
from sun kissed beach to open woods
he's led us by the hand

No Picasso is he
yet he's painted landscapes all
with passion has he described them
as we saw through his eyes

No Micheal Angelo is he
yet he with words sculptures images
of nature caught within a moment
as we share his heartbeat

No stranger to us is he
as he shares with us his days and nights
making us feel as he feels
as we share his memories

as friends.
To Paul G, a friend fellow poet and amazing narrator of natural beauty.
