Dances she upon the breezeOf his exhaled and infinite satisfied dreams,With sun scorching pity on her paper heart,So ripped and lost in explosive perfumeWhere her soul creeps in silence,In shadows and void.Waste and void,Waste and void,Waste and void and her long-lost heart-hopeIs a sighing of whispersThat writhe in the moonlight andSquirm in the dayAnd the heat of the nightAnd the thundering skiesWhere her feet kiss the...

If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Lost in a storm of passions unmet,Flayed by the lash ofSalt-sour tears,Flesh trembles cruel from theRaking of the gazeYou do not burnInto my skin.Writhing, entwining on wings ofDank and drearyDismayed dreamsAnd webs asunder,The howl of the moon is as lonelyAnd lostAs IIn its bitter perfume,In its gaping, aching, tightening furyTh...

The chill sets in whenever I approach, It's been that way since she lost faith in me.However much I try there's still reproach.This cannot be the way it's meant to be.Forgiveness now would be a kindly actFor what our love has been to her and me,Because my faith in her remains intactAnd she must see how great our love would be.It all began with something that was doneThat cut her heart and caused her doubt in me.It was a j...

The day started like most have lately, Dark and gray, like my broken heart. There's been a hole there since you took your love away, and it only grows. We said hurtful things that day and the break was harsh, with many tears and tortured sobs of regret. It seemed that all was lost, that paradise was a place I could only dream of but never again visit. The days and weeks passed, yet the lingering ache wouldn't subside, but...

When you came into my life,I wasn't prepared for what I found.You seemed to be hurt and deeply in painand I felt a need to reach out a hand to help.After offering you friendship and a supportive, caring ear.Only to be reminded and toldwe had met in a different time and place.Stunned and shocked we talked moreas the truth was gently disclosed.You took my hand gently in yours,and it touched my heart.Looking deeply into your...

I arrived late in the afternoon placing my bag in our room. I walk out onto the veranda the sky was a burst of beautiful colours. Oranges, pink and purples Oh, what a beautiful sight. The redwood table outside was set for twowith candles flickering all around. The aroma that filled the air, like vanilla and raspberries smelled oh, so sweet. Hearing the clinking of glasses I turn and look around, smiling at what I saw. You...

Just because she doesn't cry,Doesn't mean a thing.What she's piddling withIs a hainted heart.Sometimes tearsCan't cause a riverDeep enough for a womanTo dip her haint of a heart in--Not when she has lived too longIn such a short time.What is the purpose of a tearIf not to soothe?For her there is no soothing.A woman can grow dryInsideLike burnt leaves,Discarded among dead rootsOf hollow treesLeaning naked in the wind.Natur...

One fine day... As the sun slowly rises on this crisp autumn morn It is calm and so peaceful; you can hear the birds chirp. The water outside is so smooth and so still It looks like a sheet of glistening glass. I look over beside me as I reach out my hand wishing and longing you were able to be here too. This weekend however we both needed our space, to think and decide if “us” is what we truly want. I know what I want an...

A lifetime of unanswered questions Seeking answers while desperate Always the omnipresent seeds of doubt Rendering my thoughts incoherentWhy do we seek others’ approval so? Searching the expression on their faces The seeds of doubt lingering During even the warmest embracesHis gentle kisses like gifts of love Swarms of butterflies tickle me inside My heart is overcome with emotion Yet the seeds of doubt quietly hideSo man...

I close my eyes and begin thinking of you Longing to walk along the beach and dance in the waves, Or maybe lay on the sand, just holding hands. Views of the sunset, as we sit an eat dinner Each dreaming of later. You are my world, all the stars in the sky Opening my heart, as I truly love you Unconditionally for now and forever.

Please see me and love me for who I am Perfection I have found unattainable I am flawed and I am damaged But the worn edges make me beautifulMy life has not always been easy Sadness and pain have become familiar Hard lessons taught me to find strength within Only then could I see a path that was clearThrough all of the heartbreaks and loss I never let my faith in love falter Though it seemed unfair I persevered Even in th...

This poem only available on Lush Stories. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.I murmur your name across the stars,Dark fires lit beneath the sweating soot,A wishing whisper upon your brow,And hold I deep my breath in hope.Velvet air and spicy scent,The essence of your skin on mine;Sigh softly deep in sliding slivers,Electric moonlight gasps your name.Fingers skitter, tongue, it flickers,Star trails left up...
