Innocence Gone

innocence gone
given away
to the one
i loved who
has now
walked away

innocent me
to trust you so
with my
innocence

Below

the angel sighed
the angel cried
the angel laughed
the angel soared
for the child below
as it wached
it, s birth the
child called christ
born below.

love
love once
love twice
love thrice
love of ages past
love of present time

soul would join you

love once

love thrice
love for all of time

Gabriel

a demon did cry oh why
why me why me why me
must it be

a demon looked down upon an
angel dead upon the ground
wings of white spread upon
this ground of death

my brother why me
oh gabriael
thee angel of serenity

no tears touch my face
you who were brother to me
yet even a demon can
feel the loss of you oh gabriel

we fight on we demons
of dispair,

This Ghost.

the ghost of me walks alone
looking neither right or left
up or down.

sorrow walks beside this ghost
of i.

for what could have been
for what id hoped to be
to love, a love like thee.

my thoughts thought of love
my heart beat of it
but you didn, t feel it

you left me heartbroken
as you left me broken
now this ghost of me
walks the sorrow corridors
of my mind.

Beasts Within The Dark

the shadows wash over me
as the sun set behind the hills
leaving me adrift in the dark
wondering if they come for me

i hear them growling and snarling
within the dark, promising pain
and hurts yet to start

what are these things within the dark
waiting to tear me apart
filling my mind with fear

these shadows inside the dark
just bracing themselves to leap
and making me weep

these beasts within the dark
just waiting to attack.

Dunderhead

you upset my equilibrium
i said, i had a poem running
through my head

a poem of such sublime beauty
it was full of promises yet to
come

you walking sack of broken tracks
derailing me like this

when a poem runs in my head
writing it, s self
with in my mind

mercily i have aked you time
after time speak not one word
untill ive sat

Girls Best Friend

diamonds a girls best friend
so they say

they sparkle, shine in lights
of many shades

they smile and say
you know you want me
these diamonds

a girls best friend
or her own worse enemy
as they whisper words
of love

to show to others and get
mad if not considered big
enough

these diamonds to grace

This Woman Of The Night

she softly turns toward my heat
snuggles cose and tight
this woman of the night

her lips i kiss with soft caress
my hand strokes a nipple
with gentleness

she moves closer yet
toward my heat
this woman of the night

caresses from both sides
as we move within the night
two bodies move as one
in the stormy night

lips locked tight
hips locked tigher
hands exploring
