Nails polished
eyes painted
lips delicate

She had a fair skin
pleasantly kind eye
and a heart warming smile

The girl from the city
when angels fell from the sky
and she, visited my world

A leather jacket
tight jeans, black
and a white T-shirt

Two Wheels
she stopped,
at a gas station

"hello"
and I swear,
I couldn't speak

But just for a moment,
"hi!"
I answered

Vaguely audible,
except my pounding heart
bursting through my chest

"the sky is grey,"
"Can I hang around a bit?"
"Of course!"

And that is,
how I met,
the girl I never married
Blood on my hands
sweat in my dreams
battling a falling eye
fright of hell's phantoms

Guns in my hands
shots in my dreams
bleeding a deafened ear
howls of slain souls

Dirt on my hands
graves in my dreams
suffocating a broken nose
bones of rotting flesh

Nails on my hands
wounds in my dreams
scratching a plagued skin
peels of flesh beneath

And the ******* in my hands
fantasies of my dreams
feeding a dry lip
relief of yesterday's war
PTSD
Whispers of their breath
echoes of ecstasies
the rose was a ******,
the nectar was strong
So the ant searched her petals,
at the fall of the first light

Her fragrance filled the garden,
the dancing leaves of an olive
against the wind,
riding on a dragon's back,
breathing in and out,
the flames of their hearts

Guns and roses
blood and tears
to the bone we bled
Bonnie and Clyde
and in oblivion we merged
as, Romeo and Juliet
All is fair in love and war
The tranquillity of the night,
nothing better
I hear your heart beat
It's sound crystal
the wind spells the letters of your name
and the leaves wave at the graciousness of your soul

I make of one request,
shall we stay forever in the dark?
away for the rumours of the sun,
her lads and daughters
their malicious plots, gifts
and their hateful wishing

We like diamonds,
purifying the night
hiding beneath the long covers
King and Queen
drunk in love
The tranquillity of the night,
nothing better
I hear your heart beat
It's sound crystal
the wind spells the letters of your name
and the leaves wave at the graciousness of your soul

I make of one request,
shall we stay forever in the dark?
away for the rumours of the sun,
her lads and daughters
their malicious plots, gifts
and their hateful wishing

We like diamonds,
purifying the night
hiding beneath the long covers
King and Queen
drunk in love
lack denies privilege
A crystal ring for my love
But a bronze winding,
around her wrist
the work of my hands
if wine flows from the heart,
then my soul I sell
for her beauty,
with the pennies in my pocket
now a man,
to wrap her heart,
with the fabric of roses
Philosophy is one mad castle
The walls are illusive
