Baptise me
In the glow
Of your halo
Traces of euphoria
Courses through my blood
A riot in my head births
As I recall the day
You marched
Into my hollow
Inflaming
A magnificent tempest
That fill the pages
Of all that I write
Your words
Weaved into the intricate spaces
Of my impenetrable heart
To leave it radiating
Unimpeded adoration.

He is there
Lurking
In the trenches
Of my psyche
I can feel him
Coursing through my veins
He lives in the spaces
Between my words

Ravaged by the tyranny
Of want
Stirring in my desolation
On the borderlines
Of the graceful surrender
And the steadfast grip
For he is my tomorrow
My redeemer
The skeleton key
Opening me.

Submerged
Under the deluge
Of your revulsion
Bloodletting tyrant
With cataclysmic desires
The monomanical devotion
To your insatiable thirst
For malevolence
Has betrayed us all.

Deleted poem

Many moons have passed
Since your hands
Were last entwined
In the spaces between mine
The ebb and flow of life continues
I still choke
On grains of dust
That wildly rose
From your callous departure
Images of your fading tail lights
Haunt my dreams without hue
I can still hear your echo
Footprints on cement
I burn in my rue.

The raging sea
Invading
My deflated spirits
In waves,
Tidal
Awakener
Of discarded sentiment

Poetry strung of
Thoughts of you
Your halo
And the grandeur
In which you swim
The alchemy impelling
The birth of ardent need
Unfathomable, unbridled
Altering sleep patterns

Find beauty in my madness
Pierce my fragmentary blue
To paint me a velvet sky.
