Rain fall down the coffee shop window
the slow drip race of condensation,
The warmth
the smell a sweet sensation,
Watch the steam rise from my cup
the background chatter sound,
A glancing gaze
at the world around,
People performing
a silent story on a big glass screen,
Maybe these strangers that pass are heros
off to fight demons and slay dragons green,
Sweep my eyes across the coffee shop
and I’m being watched to…
Guess we’re all a silent movie to someone…
.x.
Over the lake
dragonflies flit and soar,
They fly past the pond skaters
then back to the shore,
Bobber bobs
at the end of the line,
Sun through the trees
casts an iridescent dappled shine,
Breeze plays with shadows
a musical sigh,
Added to the sun’s light show
a pleasure to the eye,
Crickets sing symphonies
as the water beetles swim,
Dark shapes under water
as fish move within,
Bobber goes under
then goes on the run,
Fish took the bait
believing he’d won,
line shoots out
as he swims away,
sleeping man shoots up
“fish today ain’t your day!”
Ripples from the chase
lap the waters edge,
“I’m getting you today!”
the quiet man does pledge,
He cranks the reel handle
while fighting his prey,
That fish has had it coming
but today is his day,
A sliver of scales
a fighting big splash,
Damn fish it leaps out
quiet man lands with a crash,
But look there it is
the quiet man’s prize,
And he stares with a smile
can’t believe its size,
Holding his fish
he wades into the lake,
“Come on old friend
you back home I will take,
Tomorrow I will fish I’ll be here
a new day,
From now on you won’t be
that big fish that got away”
.x.
Just so everyone knows… I’ve never fished before. I can imagine people that fish reading this and saying… “That’s NOT how you fish!” But? I was given the thought by random conversations with a quiet man that fishes and I kinda like how this turned out.
Old gateway
cracked pillars holding bleakness,
Over grown uneven path
encroaching foreboding ceaseless,
Crowded wood’s
either side of the road,
A melancholic wariness
the scene has bestowed,
Trepidation
apprehension,
Fear and flight
at attention,
Bend in the road
curves behind trees,
The unmistakable sound
twig snap on the breeze,
Heart stop mind freeze
adrenaline coils tight,
Keep walking but fear grows thankfully
it’s still light,
The day slight overcast
a sense of heaviness in the air,
A russle of leaves a crow screech
an albino one so fair,
And there it is
the house comes into view,
A darkness on the landscape
it sits between two massive yew,
Ornate arched windows
glass reflecting light,
Imagine this place all lit up
like a beacon in the night,
Warmth of breath on your neck
a whoosh in the air sharp crack,
The people in the window your last glimpse
eyes fall closed rolled onto your back,
Eyes swim into focus
roadside against a tree on the floor,
How’d you get here dreams of a house
your head hurts more and more,
Stand look across there’s an old gateway
cracked pillars iron gates shut tight,
It’s dark but you swear oh you swear
you’re being watched on this night,
Your car covered in debris and leaves
it was shiny clean when you stopped,
Looks like it’s sat here for weeks
a note under windscreen propped,
Forget
it says,
The wind brushes around you
hits the car and it sways,
Key already in the ignition
why would you leave it there,
Back out onto the road lights they catch
the dark eyes such a glare,
No one there but you feel it
you bare a mark,
You’ve been tagged by a hunter
you’ve be chosen by the dark…
Ugh… I had this pretty planned out but the last 10 lines have gone to poop so am quitting it. I’ll probably find this in a 6 months or so, lose my crap at how bad it is and rewrite it better. But for now? Here you go… more words that I don’t like. I swear I can’t write for sh@t just lately. Sigh… oh well… another day I guess… sending you all a hug through the wire.x.
Plated armour
shiny scales,
Smooth to touch
hard as nails,
Knowing eyes that see
so far away,
Push off from the dirt
be on your way,
Wings that glide
on gentle breeze,
Talons brush
against the tops of the trees,
A snort of heat
as thoughts get to great,
Over thinking with worry no simplicity
you state,
Soaring upwards
pushing up high,
An ebony shadow
against starry sky,
Blink and you’ll miss it
what did you see,
Was that a…
no it can’t be,
Fly over woodlands
fly over fields,
The heart wants what it wants
the heart fights the mind yields,
Sharp talons land
in softest earth,
So graceful and majestic
belies your girth,
Look through the window
spie your prey,
A mortal mere human
she’s dreaming away,
She stumbled on something
you need to retrieve,
The implications of wich
she cannot conceive,
There in the corner
near the firelights glow,
It’s still in her knapsack
such precious cargo,
Swifly quietly
the knapsack retrieved,
Its safe and unharmed
the girl earns a reprieve,
You stretch out your wings
ready to go,
And there she stands
in moonlight soft glow,
She bows
lowly,
Standing upright
slowly,
You dip your head
then push into the sky,
Your wings beat a gale
carrying you up high,
Soaring into the night
with the life you created,
You thought it was lost
with the death of your fated,
But here in your talons
your bloodline lives on,
And you carry it safely
as you fly towards the dawn,
By the time the day starts
from these lands you’ll be gone,
A mythical story to most
but they couldn’t be more wrong…x.
You….
You took a blade
And carved my skin,
You used your talent
The perfect sin,
You made me fall
So deep in love,
That I would rate you
From above,
You played your game
I’m just a toy,
Here for boredom
For you to enjoy,
Someone online
Just a game,
Here until
Your enjoyment wane,
There was just one thing
You did so wrong,
You opened my heart
You gave it a song….
So now my heart
Is on the floor,
And you don’t give
A fuck anymore,
If I bleed or
If I’ve cried,
Because your toy is gone
Game died,
Tell me are you so empty inside
That you just don’t care,
And all those sweet nothings that you’ve said
Did all my words you share,
Was anything real
At all,
Or was it just a laugh
To let me fall,
Was I a pastime
For when you’re bored,
When you are all
I have adored,
So break my heart
I do love you,
I always will
Those words so true….
It’s raining
I hear it I feel it slipping off my skin,
Change of temperature
a heat rising from within,
Why does the rain
always affect me,
I’ve always wondered
why it sets something in me free,
The rain drips
splish splash splish splash,
My pupils dilate
heartbeat speeds in a flash,
Drops hit the puddles
plop,
And I’m transfixed
emotions over the top,
Puddle ripples
with the onslaught of rain,
An overloaded feeling
running through my brain,
Coldness runs its icy fingers
down my skin,
Goosebumps
set off flares within,
feeling lost in waters caress,
Absorbing the magic
that it possess,
The beauty of
the rain so true,
Dark clouds covering
skies of blue…
.x.
Crush
hush
feel the rush
a kiss
such bliss
heartbeat miss
caressing
undressing
your body’s such a blessing
your my one addiction
I’m suffering an affliction
babe I’m in your jurisdiction
my body’s singing a benediction
I need you with such conviction
just a little more friction
work me like a magician
I need you harder need you more
pressed against the wall spread on the floor
desire flowing from every pore
setting us on fire from my core
you hum in pleasure as you explore
your my one that I adore
you slow take your time each second of pleasure
teasing me at your leisure
look at me like I’m a treasure
you smile and slow it down
you call me queen but your my crown
you spiral my body a sexual meltdown
you set slow passionate fire to my soul
pleasure engulfs me whole
moans beyond control
we started in twilight
and now it’s pure night
we need to get some sleep before it turns bright
a soft loving kiss your arm wrapped around
in you I am found
we give in until our soft even breathing the only sound….
.x.
Not the kind of ending I wanted but to keep doing end words that rhyme… too many. But a little word play. What do you think?
I wanted to tell you that I love you but the words don’t fit,
and I wish how I wish that with you I could sit,
we’d talk about the weather and mundane things like the birds that flit,
and we’d stay there enjoying the solitude of two people until the sun in the sky became just a slit,
instead somethings a miss, there is distance and kiss,
I fight the thought of bliss,
I’m mean this just ain’t right,
and thoughts are constricting me kinda tight,
part of me is fading from the light,
fuck it all these thoughts good night…x.
Anchor
your voice is my anchor throughout the day,
Your voice in my mind
holds me together when it goes astray,
I hear it
when the feelings get to rough,
It calls my name
when being around people gets to tough,
Its there
when I’m on my own,
Showing me I’m
never truly alone,
There are times I’m
so lost in my storm in the dark,
But you your my candle
you cracked a little spark,
Your my anchor
in my storm,
Your my thread
when I’m torn,
You keep me on the ground
when darkness comes to play,
And you show me that no matter what
you won’t go away…
.x.
Immortal you’re Immortal
here you never grow old,
Immortalised in the depths of love
here you’re never cold,
Writing you
into every line on every page,
Your the blood pour down my arms
passionate rage,
and I search every star
but none can compare,
I begged the moon to free me
but you’re imprinted there,
I’ve heard say when a poet loves you
it’s madness,
You’re my every emotion
my euphoria and sadness,
I burn for you
an out pouring declaration,
You’re my
inspiration medication liberation,
The blood pours down my arms
soul screeching raw,
Oblivious to the chaos around me
need you more and more,
You’re my muse my addiction
my delirious desire,
You set me alight
a conflagration great fire,
You set me in my place
break me free,
You define my boundaries
push this whirlwind that is me,
My embers
you flame and spark,
You fan my flames higher
explosions in the dark,
A poet will love you with madness
you’re a lifeline in chaos abyss,
You take my breath and break me down
utter heartbeat miss,
You give me blissful
memories,
Your my sun my sky
my grass flowers trees,
Every thought that plagues my mind
when I don’t sleep,
You encircle me with loving words
and with promises to keep,
My soul pours out
with sweet words of love,
I worship and adore you
heaven sent from above,
They say when poets love
its madness in their soul,
But my King my love my heart
you complete me make me whole,
Immortal you’re immortalised
on every page between the words on every line,
You are my love my soul
my hearts beat just mine,
My madness my chaos
you bring me to my knees,
My endless nirvana my destiny fate
my whirlwinds breeze,
You are the madness
deep inside my heart,
My euphoric inspiration medication liberation
your my spark,
Its you
only you always you,
My fated my destiny
my heart my song so true,
You’re the blood in my veins
the air that I breathe,
The calm inside my madness
my release when I’m begging please,
I am the poet
and I bleed for you,
Immortalised
in lovers words so true…
