Tonight in this garden
a million flowers boom
clouds of gypsophila loom
at my window and beyond
with fragrant vines, that crawl
saturate, scented paper walls
these night lilies, only a dalliance
that blooms and fades
your hands soft upon my legs
we are drunk from dulcet wine
sung from the whisper of moon that dips
caress of your reddened lips
all other time is now lost
as we travel this world
lilting softly slow

Envisaged realities
Dangling before eyes
Fading away
Out of reach
In pursuit of glory
Teetering on the
On the edge
Of reason and insanity
The long sharpened probe of fear
The awakened dreamer
Plummeting out of sight.

Curb your tremble
Lest the sea catapults you
Into it's bluest of depths
Again.

Imagination can take you
To explore avenues of grandeur
In spite of this
You cannot defer reality
Awaiting the grasp
Of the ends you desire
There is no defining moment
Where the puzzle pieces
Suddenly fit

The light we seek
At the end of the tunnel
Does not exist
Unbearably so
You have to create your own light
Embody it
Your luminescence will light your path
It’s an excruciating process
life
Devoid of restraint
All you can do
Is deliciously divine in
Into your heart’s darkest desires
And hope for the best

Time is fluid
Eternally in motion
Waits for no man.

I want to fall in love
With a man who knows
How to calm trembling hands
And kiss shy eyes.

The Noose
Balmy breeze whispering
Through the gaps
In the field of trees
Auroras fluorescence
Overhead
Aglow in your irises
Like the red August blaze
Of autumn's past
Vibrant lucidity
Pulsating in your veins  
Give me your light
Take my gothic.

The Noose
A gaggle of evergreen
Riverine woodland
Invigorating crisp air
Raging without sound
Sun's glare
Stealthily seeping
Through tree ferns
Crimson winged Turacos
Gliding overhead
Humming melodies
Of memories past
Amidst
Mountain splendour
I found a pocket of nirvana
In the hollow.
Your eyes are polished amber stones
gold flecked, honey brown
a warm spring of waterfalls
our love, a whispering river call
we, a silhouette of wild birds
winging amid a
softened world
