She’s like the moon

She’s like the moon
She’s like the moon
And orbit my heart to lovers tune
On earth she’s the only one
And still I look when nights gone,
Fill and fill my sky afar
And silver in night you are
Far away she’s like the moon
And orbit my heart to lovers tune,
Come close to hither
And eclipse me but never wither
She’s a star [...]

I Daydreamed It

I Daydreamed It
Together we smile,
in my arms we hug,
precious all while,
brown eyes snug,
id fall in and out,
my love i dreamed,
heart wandered about,
star gazer it seemed…..
A hopeful smile,
i had painted on,
hers still lovely while,
i daydreamed, shes gone.

Life Is A Dept

Life Is A Dept
In our relentless stroll,
the life that we control
yet were held in dept to those,
the lenders of us who chose
to lend a body and a soul,
as an imperfect addition to play the role
for the world is our home,
and beauty in earth we rome
You and me dig deep in emotions,
love and care for our [...]

My Sea, My Sea

My Sea, My Sea
It was from seas of west
that blew the waves
from its mighty chest
blown over sandy graves.
Thunder echoes the skies
and in darkness it lights
and waves they rise
and day creeps to night.
My sea, my sea, I look
you scatter debris on lands
lap by lap thy waves took
on washed up sands.

Night Crawler

Night Crawler
In silence i walked the night,
among my village the beast crept,
its footprints on winter white,
lofty snow flakes the sky wept.
Alone in the darkness i stood,
the beast looked upon me — to dine,
so did my heart sink and would,
not in my favor, this walk of mine.
The beast its jaws soon to sting,
still my fate lingers, [...]

Blue Blood

Blue Blood
Avalanched beneath, was a heart,
Cool and blue cause no beat at all,
In lovers eyes climbing left to fall,
Each kiss was of lustful impart.
Her icy heart that freezes thick,
Shatters! As and falls to pieces,
Blue blood like tears she releases,
While she melts away so quick.

Fiery Bird

Fiery Bird
Fiery bird spread proud to fly
frolic in playful dance
peak and dive lyrically high.
Treetop towers lye restful young
Early bird flutter the morn
In tangerine skies it sung.

I might add more to this later but for now ill keep it as as short as this..

Late Enough Hero

Late Enough Hero
“To the rescue” spoken too often
the catchphrase that he killed
too many their fate go em’
victims in horror not thrilled.
In a costume with an “S” on
like superman but it stood for
“Sorry” as his timing was gone
on the red costume he wore.
His [...]

The mirror that took

The mirror that took
The mirror now cobwebbed in shame
under a dust carpet it stands
of a fair height gilded frame
on strangled victims lands.
Not ever known and understood
the evil soul that lived inside
to claw youth and life it would
to pass on its antiqueness they died.
Its face covered and clouded
as wounded aware of its truth
in beauty the misery [...]

The Wrinkled Mirror

The Wrinkled Mirror
The mirror now old of time
and elderly look upon too long
so many gaze into a wrinkled sublime
their youth it creeps along.
Its wooden frame now rotten
dust has settled like moss
in a house its long forgotten
past lookers their youth was lost.
Life and youth it drew
from a paralyzed audience taken
in a wrinkled gaze they knew
of youth [...]

City Worm

City Worm
The city worm does turn and swell
in sewers of wet it does yet dwell
tunneling through it knew in haste
to belong in slime and grime and waste.
Pass under the cities thunder to live
does dither but slither and give
a slimy but shiny covering of gel
in its home in movement alone it does smell.
City lights in nights [...]

Bless You

Bless You
A squint and a sniff and a pause
head tilted, sort of elevated a slight
A blow and a bow all applause
the sneeze from the nose that i write.

I saw someone sneeze today a lot lol so did this quick, short poem.

In the Phantoms night

In the Phantoms night
From a lifetime of sleepy hollow,
coffined in the dismal dungeon it lays
to hunt a night and sleep by days
sheltered from the damning sunlight in castle walls it stays.
The phantoms intension’s infused,
blood likened for its lively taste
mortals lie stone cold, stiff and defaced
kneeled on the ground to drink the bleeding its graced.
Offspring they [...]

The Moon and The Sun

The Moon and The Sun
The full moon creeps to touch my window ledge
and a million stars shine brightly tonight
the silver moon shimmers at nighttime so bright.
The moon and the stars are hidden away
day light dawns the sun in the distance
not gone forever but blinded by persistence.
