Attractive beauty
claims dominion
eagerly
from gentlemens hearts...

Ignoring jokers

keeping
lonely men near...

open promises
quietly
restrain subsequent
temptations

until virulent x'spectancy
yields

zombies.
Beauty so easily makes zombies of us all

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...

Only colours black.

The leathers aged...

and see that crack?

That's paranoid anti-social depressive disorder...

WHAT

you want your shoes back.
Black for depression and yes one size fits all, fit as in mood swings and crack as in cracked mad mentally unstable, still wanna walk a mile in my shoes?

Hold my hand
lest it should wander

You walked into my life...

I don't mind

Rambling - to walk or to talk endlessly

Melancholy

sterile and white
Its snowing heavily here painting everything clean and white like a **** hospital ward

Her favourite thing in life
was hanging out
my
pyjamas
Think about it remember my love of word play and double meanings lol
DieingEmbers Dec 2012
She bit down 
drawing blood from tensened shoulder,
rocking gently
as I fought to hold her.
Writhing flesh 
on flesh and bone,
cussing my name 
in empassioned tone.
Nails tearing 
sweat stained skin,
sinking down 
drinking me in.
Head thrown back
eyes wide shut,
slapping my thighs
with reddened ****.
Tongues flaying flesh 
from up turned necks,
teeth spittle stained
with whitened flecks.
Fingers tangled
pulling hair,
Beyond the point
of sweet despair.
Hips gyrating
screaming mouth,
as once again
the north meet south.
Passion spent
and shared and tasted,
nothing wanted
nothing wasted.
DieingEmbers Mar 2013
Your eyes alone now scan the screen
as mine on you now go unseen
I see their laughter share their pain
as on your lap I'm softly lain
my heart soft flutters as they do
as you watch on and I watch you
I see their tears and see their joy
see them mad and play'fly coy
no words are spoke not touch is felt
as I my love within them melt
commercial break you now look down
and autumn breaks beneath your frown
you stroke my hair and touch my cheek
and smile so soft it leaves me weak
my lips won't move my tongue is numb
is loving you this way so dumb
no need for intimacy beyond what's shared
when your fav'rite shows are being aired
So watch them all and I'll watch you
cause there's nothing else I'd rather do

Winter snows

Skinny dipping in translucent pools...

as soft
milk white silken foam
laps at naked
limbs

mouth short of breath
makes no attempt
to break free
as lips
salt stained
crack
beneath the pressure


of your kiss.


Arms grasping at life
as legs
entangled by living bonds
drag me down
down
deeper into your sweet embrace

faining death
exhausted
I surface reborn of your love
of your body

once more I gaze into your eyes

skinny dipping in translucent pools

and smile.
DieingEmbers Feb 2012
Out upon the porch they sit
weather worn
freshly painted White
by winter snow,

silently they await the coming spring
and the added
warmth of company.

Where we will rest ourselves within their arms
as you share with me
Southern hospitality
in a glass of home made lemonade.

The night time breeze
wafts the scent of early buds
and apple pie
cooling upon the kitchen cill.

Falling stars
that once graced the
heavens with their beauty
fade into darkness
in comparrison with your eyes.

I smile
happy just to steal a few extra moments
from the busy day
to be alone with you and you alone

my love.

And on the seventh day

he paused...

shaking his head.
Even in the beginning man was a ungrateful child that took more than his share from nature
DieingEmbers Oct 2012
Hand pressed hard
against the heated glass
mixing steam with wanton breaths
forced from aching lungs
that scream out in silent promises...
twisted limbs
slide against tiled touch
as water
tasting of unclean thoughts
pours openly from open pores
Shower head moved from nape to navel
seeking wetted thighs
and ****** out rear
its touch imitating his
as he pulls her close
hair wrapped around clenched fist...
his eyes closed tight
as he finds release in the enclosed walls
of her body.
DieingEmbers Mar 2013
My pillow's stained...

by all those nights
we slept


alone.

You put your ring on me

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

What lick from any other tongue but thine
could raise ones heart from foulest pit,
and coupled with those eyes that shine
with untold laughter mirth and wit.
Wouldst thou but be my only friend
I wouldst not fear nor here complain,
for thou art my morn and my days end
that knows my deepest joys and pain.
Many times alone hath I spoke to thee
and in silent companionship hast thou listened,
though not once hast thou here answered me
with words unsaid but by eyes that glistened.
You took upon yourself my pain my all
and never once here left my side,
for all you ask a bone a ball
my dearest friend by me abide.
For a contest on Allpoetry dedicated to my three year old Yorkshire Terrier Tansy

What or' welming thought is this
that causes one to yearn your kiss
and in those lips the feeling bold
that your sweet hand I pine to hold
there in the twining of our hands
lies days ahead in grains of sands
that worries not as each one slips
as long as I've your heart your hands your lips
so here and now and future years
I'll be your laughter and your tears
I'll be your warmth and comfort still
if you my love but say I will
for nothing more a man could seek
than loving you seven days a week
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.

Park swings and polished slides
roundabouts and see-saw rides
country walks and babbling stream
honey pots and tins of cream
Kitchen sink or comfy seat
rain drops on an urban street
poetry and old love songs
wooden spoon and salad tongues
pinny or a pencil skirt
the way you look in my old shirt
the way I nag the way you chide
the nights we've spent sat side by side
beef stew and cake and sweet courgettes
high heeled shoes and sheer fish nets
silence in kisses laughter in eyes
and longing in those long goodbyes
DieingEmbers Dec 2012
Night aches within the burdened breast
as my heart held prisoner
beats
within the hollow silence
of your absent
touch
a
sad and sorrow filled
goodbye.

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
DieingEmbers Aug 2012
You're the missing shirt and mismatched socks
You're the barbie dolls and the wooden blocks
youre the iou in the money box

that makes me stop and smile.

You're the open milk and burnt black toast
you're  the dented wing from the unseen post
you're the gravy poured on my Sunday roast

that makes me stop and smile.

You're the scent of marigolds and bleach
you're the persistant itch I cannot reach
you're the shells we found on last years beach

that make me stop and smile.

You're the start of life and end of days
you're the burning hope as the fiddler plays
you're the sweetest thoughts and gentle ways

that makes me stop and smile.

Do you miss me wanna kiss me
do you wanna steal my breath
wanna hold me soft enfold me
share with me a little death
wanna feel me try to heal me
as the darkness takes ahold
wanna bathe me try to save me
with your kisses chains corrode
wanna claim me wanna name me
as your nails carve in my bark
wanna know me wanna show me
all your beauty after dark
wanna chance it then enhance it
Take a bite and ******* ache
wanna own me now you've shown me
that my heart you'll never break
wanna keep me and sleep with me
want to awake within my arms
wanna aid me and to shade me
beneath your loving palms
wanna momment wanna life time
want what ever I can give
wanna be mine wanna share time
want to wake and at last live.

The breeze has stilled
the lake is calm,
the glasses filled
with liquid balm.

We toast the moon
and thank the night,
for space to spoon
by natural light.

You sip your wine
and let it spill,
I make it mine
and drink my fill.

From lips and chin
and proffered neck,
you draw me in
to taste each speck.

Your eyes are wide
they catch the stars,
a mayday bride
whom ums and hars.

I seek your kiss
and tongue your tongue,
savouring bliss
so sweet and strong.

Wine bubbles burst
in untouched glass,
as still we lay
upon wet grass.

A picnic planned
a meal for two,
got out of hand
when I kissed you.
DieingEmbers Dec 2012
Did you really have to go...

could you not have tarried longer.

Made your
excuses to the stars
and moon
to lie gently mere moments more
within my arms

does sleep hold such tender dreams
as to rival the tenderness
I give
when er' I hold you...

can the gentle touch
of you pillow
ever truely replace the lightness
of my lips
caressing your cheek.

Would that I could be the very essence
of your nights
replacing
the cool tranquil breeze
with warmth of breath upon your back

and that the breaking of dawn
could be subdued
by my smile
welcoming you back

although in truth
you would never have left me

for I am...

borne upon your lips
in prayer
and
worn always upon your skin
as scent most innocent

for this is not the mere wanton craving
of your body
close to mine

this is the voice of love
of reason
that sings so gently the lullabies
to ease thy doubtful mind

so if you must leave
then take me with you always

in one final

goodnight

kiss.
DieingEmbers Jul 2012
I joked " that's mine "
you throw it down
you stomp away
you slam the door

" I'm kidding " I shout
you're silent
you're distant
you laugh no more

" grow up " I scream
temper rising
Anger growing
I walk away

" grow up " I repeat
to myself
to my inner child
that spoiled today
Arguing with my daughter over a sausage roll, how quickly a joke can become a row. Childish I know but I hate myself all the same for losing my temper.

I close my eyes...

why not

there's
           nothing

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.

We steal like thieves
In the shadows of night

you and I...

these stolen moments
more prescious than gems
these stolen kisses
more valued than gold

we live like kings
in this fools paradise

you and I...

Where laughter is our currency
with an exchange rate
of forty giggles to a chuckle
or 100 chuckles to a smile

We are as one here
unheard and unobserved

you and I...

where we spend our time together
snuggling close, holding tight
wishing time too would let us be
as so hard to say goodnight
to

You and I

On silken wings and silken strings
the garden doth awake
and from their beds those sleepy heads
their petals gently shake
a snail or two say how are you
as bumblebees take wing
to nectar sweet with sticky feet
as skylarks start to sing
a ladybug sleeps yet so snug
beneath a quilted leaf
her dreams untold as wings unfold
as earthworms crawl beneath
the ants at work refuse to shirk
they have no time to play
and cabbage whites like stars at night
take flight and fly away
the field mouse and wooded louse
attract the watchful eye
of tawny owl and feathered fowl
that own the morning sky
a homeward cat puts pay to that
no bird is fool enough
to try to land where danger stands
All teeth and claws called Fluff
so morrow breaks and nature wakes
and soon enough will we
but until then this land of men
is theirs so naturally
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
Let the whisper
of my heart
forever be
your name.
DieingEmbers Mar 2012
look not for me in rainbows
or quietly flowing streams,
seek me not in meadows
or the softness of your dreams.

I'm not amongst the flowers
or fruit ladening the trees,
nor am I the bowers
or the gentle morning breeze.

For why search when I'm with you
in both your heart and mind,
so think of us as I do
as two hearts one love doth bind.
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.

Let loose ****** upon the heavens

to pluck out the stars
blinding the earth

Make carrion of its promises
as now they rend the night
with
bloodied talons

screeching profanities in blasphemous acts

let the world beware the coming

for I am death

Winter kisses...

whispered wisps
of breathy promises
exhaled soft
from trembling lips

her words
lingering amongst the smoke
of some ethereal
cigerette

cold fingers dance
upon my spine
as I shiver

is it the cold
or more so her eyes...

soft warm coals
smoldering
against the whiteness
of her skin

smiling.

Warm lips
and slow fluid movements
move me

as once more
I melt into her arms

and am all consumed

Carved from jade and set with rubies
told to seek a richer prize
Told the emperor there's no need sire
for what you seek lies in her eyes
as one together turning softly
to where the humble maiden stood
all at once his heart was taken
as dragons wisdom understood
search not desire in precious metals
lay no stock in gems and wealth
Seek only to obtain true pleasure
through true love and your good health
so the dragon bid of him leave
took on wings his final flight
where he courted a star maiden
bidding the world of men goodnight
Thanks Linda W this is my reply to your poetic words enjoy.

Insomnia makes strange bed fellows of us all
as sleep replaced by poetic sense of irony
as when we are alone we find good company
within the spirit box of demonic technology

there beneath the glass rise unspoken words
seemingly writ by modern day planchette
as disembodied heads with rictus smiles
beckon us with whispered promises typeset

fingers fearing rheumatism fumble with keys
unlocking neuron pathway to answer their call
to find peaceful rest beneath ink stained sheets
as insomnia makes strange bed fellows of us all
This is in response of his insomnia poem

Your eyes
