Black Moon
A blackened moon once was a relic
shon down a gleaming charm on silver lined sky
her years of glory, eclipsing, rotating, waiting
though shortening, shattering, soon to die.

Destiny
Our hero, rest in peace legendary one
for your place is in waiting, the ends finally come.
Your existence now depleted a soul has arisen
golden gates open wide set pass by life’s freedom.
One of life’s treasures sunk to depths of a heart
an end of celebration for your spirit can depart.
A respective soldier in our hearts you will [...]
Midnight
Rest a restless body upon a window ledge,
identical stars shine communally – one rare shooting star for us to pledge. Through moisture window pains gaze high up at a universe,
moonlight reflected by aluminum-bodied cars for its light to disperse.
Porch lights channeling, centering to a point in the distance,
pathways catching light – curbs causing shadows at [...]

Captivated
Writers block creativity deep within
captivated beneath a blank canvas
paint a Mona Lisa with a real cheesy grin,
a blank notepad craving to be a masterpiece
break through this wall of mine
holler through its emptiness inspiration to release,
a little idea just a seedling hopeful to grow
a miracle set upon it
into a beautiful flower for the world to know.

Glory Days

Glory Days
Push on the button as the lens eclipses a flare
thousandth of a second drags while you try to prepare,
a moment of your life captured by the blink of an eye
blushed in the face apparent you were shy.
Pose for that one position hold a strong smile
the uneducated photographer capturing your style,
flash flash flash twilight through [...]
F.A.T.E

F.A.T.E
An events calendar of our lives,
choosing between good and bad decisions
unavoidable circumstances, stage fright visions,
being at the wrong place at the wrong times
a coincidental arrangement of our lives
the time keeper dependant upon future actions – self control he deprives,
our lives just movements on a game of chess
fate vs. fate
playing an already played game of success.

Loves Pleasure
Posted in Poems, emotion, tagged love, poetry on April 17, 2008 | 9 Comments »
This is just a small poem i thought of because i read a poem about a similar idea, but i wrote it my own way.
Lovers Pleasure
Romantic kisses,
clothes drape to the floor
my feelings become slender
as you caress my body
adventurous to explore,
Cling to the sheets
we sweat from desire
pleasure felt within
tingling sensation your body acquires,
Climax felt by both
by [...]
Eight legged freaks!

Eight legged freaks!
Eight legged freaks!
Thats all you creatures are
crawl, creep, swing from my ceiling
keep your distance afar,
Why the black body, long scrawny legs, and eight blinking eyes
Id say you dont scare me!
But that would be lies,
Get off my walls i curse you to do
go home to the ground
tell your friend to move too.

The Battlefield

The Battlefield
White skies flood with grayness
graceful air begins to mature
aggravated weather approaching
rain drops turn erratic
heavy rain turns hardcore,
Blackness struck by electric purple
neon strikes utter – bolts to the floor
roof-tops thrown from houses
wreckage littered empty streets
battle field stories, memories of war,
Gun shots replicated – bulleting decay
fearless winds throw out disaster
shrapnel flaring cast in mid-air
to hide and [...]

Hypnotized
Fixated by charm
mesmerized within
pretty azure eyes

Human Body
Blood draining
veins pulsing
heart pounding
throat gulping
lungs choking
stomach churning
brain growing
ears burning
eyes flinching
muscle feeling
bone crunching
skin peeling
nails grinding
teeth staining
nose itching
lips licking
hair threading
saliva dripping
liver processing
intestines working
limbs crippling
disks jerking
soul yearning
© Andrew Lockley 2008
Play me
Like a instrument
My heart pounds out a rhythm,
Pluck on my heartstrings
And ill play you a song,
Damage my heart
You’ve already won,
No more pain can I feel
As the pain is undone,
No more will I open
My heart for another,
Mistakes I’ve learnt to accept
My feelings for you,
I will never forget.

Pointlessness

Pointlessness
A pointless argument, why do you ramble on?
lets call on the peace leave it its gone!
Sing a new song would you, I’ve heard it before
why get so aggravated by something so small.
You dragged it and stretched it and showed it us all
why keep repeating it, your talking to a wall,
Take a deep breath and think [...]
Pick yourself up

Pick yourself up
Pick yourself up
with a tear in your eye,
White blinding light
you breath out a sigh,
Pain felt throughout
by this bewildered one,
Harm has been caused
the damage is done,
Unable to remember
the incident at all,
Lying in the road
curled in a ball,
Superhuman recovery
is the miracle you are,
To be in the accident
but not killed by the car,
Fate played its part
but [...]
The Moon
Luminous moon
Enlighten the night,
Twinkling stars
Glowing with light,
Behind is the sun
Keeping it bright,
Shining in darkness
It blazes alight.

Its just the beginning

Its just the beginning
Shady clouds break out
white lit sky – hidden away,
Rain showers fall from heaven
Eeriness turns to gray,
Strength up above
Peace – driven astray
Thrusts of wind
Leaves thrown into array
Flashing lights a sudden outburst
Thunder echoes overhead,
White strikes to the floor
The thunderstorm is bred.

This poem is the warm up towards a thunder storm.
Falling, falling, falling

Falling, falling, falling
Falling through the air
I feel a sudden pause,
Time stops quick
as I begin to feel the fall.
Fields down below are just a speck
as I hurtle towards the ground,
A second feels like an hour
the rush goes through my blood,
Unable to control
what I wish that I could.
Though people love the feeling
of no ropes or boundaries,
I feel [...]
