The lost love

For you I long,

O angel of the moonlight song,

With me you belong.

Draped in ravishing white,

Almost blinding bright,

Still soothing is your sight.

Dare peer into those eyes,

Larger than gaping skies,

Of wonder black and o so wise.

In the softest lilt,

A heart would wilt,

Upon my ears dearest felt.

A glance your way,

You turn and I scarper away,

This game of love I play.

Unknown universe to unfold,

Joy to behold,

But only for the bold.

Of passion and care,

Emotions flare,

It's cupid's snare.

With your warmth and grace,

Wash my sins without a trace,

Beg put me to my place.

Slake my thirst,

Shelter me with your trust,

To shores of Eden we must.

To make dear, your heart

Frayed has mine and is torn apart,

Without you is a life to depart.......

The journey to grace

She sneaked in right through the front door,

And dove straight into the deepest core.

She hung around a little while,

Until we were just about a mile.

The waves slapped against the shore,

Why would I want more?

I saw her slip and I saw her frail,

I didn't move I wouldn't bail.

A gentle touch, out came a smothered scream,

I wouldn't have it, I saw the seam.

She sowed seeds of birth,

It bloomed into the faintest mirth.

She had me coiled in her vine,

But vines support and it felt divine.

She looked grotesque at best,

But what lay within, no force would ever test.

But as I set, great shadows loomed,

There was a feeling that all was doomed.

As the beast within me unveiled itself,

That beauty wouldn't forgive herself.

I wander the shores, I look for the waves,

The seas are dry and my heart caves.

The tides have changed and so have lives,

I've enjoyed the rides and the heavy knives.

This day it ends and we part our ways,

But I'll love you forever and for always.
