Fading Tracks

I once travelled these roads
I know these tracks
Like i know I'll never again
Ive been hidden
Away from sight
Inside a white box

With eyes closed
I know where I'm being taken
I feel as if my heart
Would beat again
I was young and full of life
Until yesterday.

Today is a beautiful day
The sun shines
And the sky so blue
Unlike yesterday
It was cold and grey.
And full of tragedy

Something stirs inside of me
As i hear a woman wail
I dont recognize her
Yet she weeps for me
I search through the maze
Of my memories slowly fading

I know i miss someone
Yet my soul longs for another
The clouds seem closer now
Night has suddenly come
I see a lonesome star beckon
Far away in the night sky

Where are the stirring of the leaves?
Or the buzzing of the bees?
Im light like the wind
I only know the elements
The tracks slowly fade away
As i become one with the firmament

Chameleon

Change the backdrop
Capture the lights
In the pyramid of my features
Let the colours become me
Let my features reflect
Time and clime
My walk, soft yet lofty
My smile sweet, yet a bite
I change i become
Whomever and wherever
Life does me and i do life
Like interwoven pieces of a puzzle
I unravel
with every twist and turn
I am and i am not
I come and i go
Capture me not
In the sunsets
For with dawn ill still rise...

Storm
LILIAN ADEMU May 2020
Storm

Hold me in the dark tempest of your arms.
As I feel the rush of the elements
Clash with your tenderness
Fill me.
Hold me till I scream..
As your waters come rushing at me
Filling up my deepest core
Your colors thrill and fill,
Awakening my feral desires
Your scent and touch
Arouses my primal side
Your inviting fullness
Reaches out to me
I lie helpless in your image
Of pure seduction
Thirsty for the life within you
O storm
Your rage is my desire
And the treasures within your *****
Births life from my womb

The poem is about how the earth enjoys a storm..

Eyes, heart and dreams
LILIAN ADEMU May 2020
Through your eyes.
I see me
Dressed in flax and gold
With streams of dark hair
Cascading to my hips
With curved hips and full lips
As i lie in wait for you
On a bed of feathers

Through your heart
I see us
In a dance like no man has dared
A dance to be remembered
By stars and blue black skies
One in which we flank the stars
As we explode in ******* waves

Through the litany of your dreams
I see us
Hand in hand as we cross from youth to the sweetness of future years
Soul to soul as we cross over
Into our next reality..
