Inveigle deception
Coaxes me along
Into a leisurely rising mist
Such, that I was unaware
Whispers echo
While in the distance
A halo of hope
Is slowly slipping away
Over the horizon
Where is mercy
SHADOWS (pt 3)… a poem
Tag: #Poetry
SHADOWS (finale)… a poem
Alas, hidden like a jewel
Salvation
Here to satiate my thirst
On wings like angels
Subservient to no one
Lest shadows
A beacon
As bright as the noon-day sun
Now, I can breathe easy again
Ahh…
THE KISS… a poem
I felt the kiss
And was immediately warmed
Such a sensation
The bond was soon formed
Not to forget, no
Not anytime soon
As this sunburn I sport
Hurts like a son-of-a-@#$*&
SHADOWS (con’t)… a poem
My hopes are dashed
As the shadows deepen
Into the amber depths of bliss
What juxtaposition
Dark and light
Despair and elation
SHADOWS… a poem
Long shadows traverse my path
Causing hesitation in my walk
Step by step
I climb the hill
Hoping and praying
The shadows disappear
UNTIL NEXT TIME… a sultry poem
Silk stockings drape across the bed post
Hastened there in a fit of passion
Forgotten until the early hours of dawn
Fitted back into place
While a gentle kiss is placed upon his brow
“No, he won’t soon forget me!
Until next time…”
LEGACY… a dark poem
Kindred, don’t leave me
This melancholy, too, shall soon pass
Bear with these fragile bones
One last time
Before they are consumed
By the fires of no return
Pray for me
After the passing
Stay with me
Until the chill of the morning
Lifts its veil
Upon a new day
Then, carry on the legacy
Seek out truth
Hide your true self
When the time is right
Revenge me
And leave a legacy
Of your own
