I Kissed A Lily (can't think of a better title at the moment)
(Preview)
I kissed a lily
Angel of flowers
In the night of stars
Embalmed in silk,
Eyes closed slumbers
Eternal peace

She Plucked the Rose (rondeau)
(Preview)
She plucked the rose with petals white
That night she bathed in the moon
Silent within his arms so tight
She sighed him the nightingales swoon
Once locked within her heart of night
And he with eyes of stars alight
Beckoned her closer to twilight
Her spine shivered in his croon
She plucked the r...

Nature of the Beast
(Preview)
Beneath the rising and setting sun
Upon the ocean glittering strong
An artist's landscape fantasy
A real life beauty, not false imagery
From the waterfalls, and then moving on
Delirious and drunk, quite simply from
Nature's astounding pieces of living art
From sea to sea, the mountains ca...

A Distant Cry (Random Crap, completely remodeled)

Follow me into obscenity A darker road to poetry For where I land is where I fall Wherever I roam, I am appalled By all the bloody scenery I really miss the greenery A planet fallen to ash and dust From whence we came- is where we must Return in the end A package unsent For all our modern will is bent Away from t...

The Reason for Rhyme
(Preview)
There is so much debating
On the subject relating
To rhyming and prose.
How can ANYONE say
That rhyme has had its day
If the question arose.
Its great cause for discussion
Without repercussion
And treading on toes!
Its an interesting subject
But lets keep our respect
For our poe...

Every Day
(Preview)
Every day, I find something new to love you for. When I finally think that no more can possibly filter through, I'm taken aback by a sudden rush of emotion. Some days it's hard to breathe, and I'd never have thought suffocating could feel so good. I'm finding it increasingly difficult to push you away; t...

I found a light upon the horizon
calling me home.
I found a tide within the river
riding me home.
And when the dark night howls

I know that there will dawn another day
And I w...

Move Me
(Preview)
I must find a way
To stop thinking
About you
And how you
Filter my every move
And thought
With intensity
And yet
I feel Im free
More so than ever
When I find myself
Caught
In the web of intricate
Nettings of you
And how you
Move me.

Transparent
(Preview)
Rolling, tumbling, falling
Endless Void is calling
Softly whispers in your ear
So kind of you to hear
Awoken with a sudden start
Sweat dripping from your face
Just a dream you tell yourself
And a calm appearance you fake
Haunted whispers in the darkness
Wishing only for a soft seductress

Bury In Stone
(Preview)
When time seems to be my enemy
I follow a promise I made
Of how I'd climb every mountain
and plough the weeding glade;
I'd swallow my tears before you see them
and hide my woes and fears
I'll shine as bright as the evening star
and hold onto you for years.
But now that time is my enemy
and I find I wa...

Waves

What I wouldn't give
to become one with the sea
Enveloped by glassy waves
as brilliant green
As any to swell and reach
for the heavens
And come crashing down
Over me.

Abandoned: A Rose Colored Tragedy (can't think of a better title at the moment...)
(Preview)
A white rose lays on the gravestone
Releasing its perfume into the wind -
No one smells its scent
Petals gently drooping on the marble -
No one feels its silk
Tattered from the blowing wind -
No one hears its sorrow

Burning Alive

Twisting and Writhing
Burning and Weeping
Tempting you onward
Yet slowly creeping
Upon you in shadow
In madness, In Hell
Look to the darkness
For that's where I dwell
Uncomfortable silence
That nags at your ear
If you deny me passage
I'll slither through your fear
For I am black as midni...

She cries in quiet pain
Hush, baby
Why can't you see I'm dying?
Please, she prayed
God closed his eyes...

Evey:
His hand lay gentle upon her shoulder
her face turned away towards the moon,
"Darling, I'm only growing older, why
won't you let me love you?"
He watched as a tear slipped free,
falling down her flushed cheek.
Her lips trembled and he thought
he'd break as he waited for her t...
