Fortitude
Fate's hand dealt
Blinding pain
In perpetuum
Desolation swallows me whole
Transcends all else
Disenchantment obliterates hopes
Annihilating sanguine dreams
Must surrender to affliction
Malady, my friend
Only solace in agony,
Agony with no end.
SMF
First meeting
Familiar strangers
Never met, but always known
Teary gazes locked
Sky blue eyes enlightened
Once separate lives
Arduous paths journied
Led to this very moment
Singular soul within
At long last reunited
Eternally etched in time
***********************
Two hearts beat as one
Your breath fills my lungs
I see the world through your eyes
My lips release your weary sighs
On my shoulders I bare your burden
Your pain flows through my veins like poison
Your tears stream down my cheeks
You are cut... and I bleed...
SMF
Drown
Split second
Light extinguished
Enveloped in darkness
Frigid and foreboding
Suddenly alone
Arms reach out
Hoping to find you
Discovering nothing
But four walls closing in
Racing heart echoing
Solitary sound
Pressure amplifying
Air violently depleted
Waves come crashing in
Swirling waters from bottom to top
Cries for help unheard
Icy cold filling my lungs
Suffocating screams
Vanquishing thrashing limbs
Until stillness overcomes
Leaving only desolation
SMF
Delirium
Shadowy feminine figure
Lurks outside the glowing window
Watching silently
Coveting in the night
Two angels illuminated
By flickering firelight
Cast in passionate embrace
Lamenting why it is not her...
Imagining that it is!
Happy enough in her delirium
She continues the fight
Though reality eludes her
In him she will never delight
For his heart belongs to the light
SMF
Deceit
Just like a vampire
You sucked me in
Beauty hid your dark intentions
Heavenly scent
Lingered in my nose
Melodic voice
Set my heart aflutter
With each exquisite syllable
Splendidly beautiful face
Consumed me like a drug
Most alluring of lips
Invited me in for kisses
Left me weak in the knees
Wild with desire
Passionate encounters beyond compare
Your seduction is complete
I close my eyes, you are all I see
You have me at your mercy
All your talk of soul mates
You’ve no soul to be found
It’s too late, my heart to you is bound
All you wanted was my life blood
Now you bleed me dry
Toss me aside
Next victim already in sight
