Winter comes

Winter comes.

Hidden,
all that I see before me

...Winter surfaces,
seeking warmth and comfort...
closed it all becomes

where then,
do the shaven head monks pray?

 @AR2010

into the recess

your footsteps echoed,
as your heels
trod through my mind
last night...

carefully, you weren't
as you opened doors
long hidden away

surprised you were,
as you walked through
images never seen,

I feel the stains
you left upon my
mind,

As you continued to
invade those things
long forgotten

Did you notice,
as you walked
that I was next to you

Did you not realize,
that as you were here...

I was also doing the same things....

@AR2010

Last Night's Honey

I felt you stir, last night
neath the sheets...

Your breathing slow and steady.
trembling...

I felt you stir, last night
Again I awoke,

Your breathing,
Tempo increased

reaching out,
I touched you

"Honey, Honey"

I whispered...

Yes, it was.

@AR2010

Everything

Tousled your hair, disheveled your clothes
or what remained on...
Bewildered, you awoke
gazing at me...
Smirking, I dressed 

"What Happened?"
You asked.

Gently I said,
" Do You not remember love?"

Before I kissed you last night,
you were curious...

You asked " what I would do"
I only whispered...

"Everything"

@AR2010

awash...

...footsteps in the sand, 

quickly washed away...

memories fade 

as the tide cleanses that which you were...

 @AR2010

Meteoric

mine eyes tempted
by that which I see

teased by the promise
of your wicked touch...

fallen, into your arms
again,and again

lift me, from this prison
of my own making

your kisses like rain,
meteoric.

come again...

@AR 2010

....fragments

...as slept last night, 

I saw ghostly images of the past...

when I awoke this morning,

the empty spaces in my soul 

were those memories that faded away.

 @AR2010

Hieroglyphics

wicked lies written on the page

shattered pieces fragmented and stained

bound by ghosts, captive.

footsteps in blood, leading away

whence you came , why do I not remember?

mental games, handcuffed by lace

a lover's quarrel, shot true

emptiness, my friend.

Do I know you ?

 

@AR2010

Dreams of Kings.

last night I was a king,
this morning , Nothing.
Tangled sheets. sweaty skin
thrum, thrum, thrum
I can be anything.

@AR2010

Faerie Tales

pen me a faerie tale,
where the sum is two

compose me a song
Adagio,Adagio....

Dance for me,
Arabesque,

entwined by melodies
haunting and old

walk with me,
down to the Joshua tree.

lets us sit near babylon,
and watch the mummer's dance

speak to me, as sinners do
lay your dreams upon me,

Rejoice, for I am undone

@AR2010

..when it rained

where were you when it rained?
when clouded skies, broke dejected
alone I am again!

Where were you, when yellow eyes
...peeked at me, as I cried.

foggy bottoms, soggy eyes
mist filled wonders
lies in disguise,
kisses in the rain
upon my weary soul

Alone,why Am I again?

 

@AR 2010

unspent pennies...

Do you know how many wishes
Lay unspent?
Did you see your wish as it fell...

Do you know how many rose petals
Lay strewn across the floor
Did you see the roses at your door?

Did you see the words
As pain upon my face
When you walked past me
Without a smile?

Did you not see me?

Did you hear,
The larks mournful song
Echoing in the twilight

Did you see the leaves
Falling one by one
Fading colors
Autumns washed

Too many hours
Spent wishing alone

No fairy tale endings,
Only absence ....

Fragmented

emptiness, and lies
strings of broken promises
pearls on a lonely neck.

whispered secrets, hidden notions
compromises...

frayed ends, the hangmans noose
curled, fetal, fragmented, forgotten

I am all of the above, I am nothing!

...in composition

Wicked tantrums leaking from your veins
 Whispering to me like a child in the street
 You secrete your need for something more
 Like a beggar looking for a feast
 
 Will you come to me in the night
 When I call upon you to shroud me
 With heavens delights
 I find you delectable even though its not right
 
 Licking serum from your lips
 I crave the sweet acrid pain you fill me with
 Holding out until the time when if I 
 Should speak one word you’d be mine
 
 Rolling muscles my legs ache for more
 Pushed up against the banister a 
 Warning from a strangers saves me 
 From the pull of the moon entwining our souls
 
 Should you care to look deeper
 You’ll find a rabid gold mine tapped
 Only at the surface biding its time
 Until the right one comes to explore
 
 Pulsing the rich blood from its sleeping state
 You find a match worthy if only
 You could partake – deviate from your crisis 
 And reach into the depths to find the diamond
 
 Awake now and see the truth behind
 Eyelids filled with sunshine and hope

pressing against you , 
 chasing invisible lines
 tracing circles,
 through you .
 
 whispering voices, 
 echo
 I hear your steps, 
 like heartbeats
 thrum...thrum..thrum
 
 I dream the dream,
 I live lies,
 searching, seeking
 begging forgiveness, 
 from strangers...
 
 the mirror always reflects, 
 that which I do not need, 
 looking deeper, 
 a shadow of you ...
 
 come closer,
 outstretched hands
 empty with desire..

reaching through the mirror
 with whispered words
 she holds your shadow 
 pulling you through 
 this looking glass
 broken 
 stained by hours of 
 sleepless nights spent
 burried alone
 
 turning you notice the
 glimpse of the shade fade
 wondering
 has it left you…
 feeling
 its satisfaction with this new game
 
 whispered echos of forgiveness
 reverberate
 through the shielded walls
 falling against deaf stone and glass
 turning back into air 

....tap tap..
 I heard your heart
 beating lyrically
 
 names...I heard
 calling out, 
 
 Were you seeking me?
 
 broken pieces, strewn
 like rain drops....
 
 shadows on the wall, 
 smudges,left behind
 as you walked away .
 
 into the aether,
 I heard your whisper
 a memory.....
 forgotten.
 
 circles turning, 
 days into night
 satisfaction,
 denied.
 
 Once again,
 Empty.
 
 I sleep alone,
 waiting for you, 
 I sleep alone,
 buried, 
 neath the memories 
 of yesterday...
 
 

At your feet

Slipping,

The strings

That hold you

Fallen,

bunched, at your feet
 

Step,

Into mine embrace

Lay beside me

Lustfully, keeping time

breathe……breathe….

Blue Eyes

Blue Eyes

I see you

Everyday,

Blue eyes

Smiling,

I am Afraid

To Step,

Alongside

And ask your name.

Blue Eyes

I asked myself

What should I do ?

I could lose you ,

Either way.

Against the Satin

whimper...whimper..
A Soft whisper
satin against skin.
a war of attrition
Starved,
you fold swiftly

Kneeling, begging
the urgency of it
runs deep,

Into your mind,
you try to
slip,
the bonds
of lust
holding you to me.

arching, upwards
you fight ,
against, the
invisibility
of your bondage

Sweat, trickles
beads of pearls
down,
to your innermost
desires,
that gift
you will give ....

Exhale

lips rouged red
eyes darkened
lustful smile
pink inside

painted tips
fingered,
gliding upwards
splayed eagle
blinded.

Bound, trussed
tied,
Toyed, teased
tasted.

lips rouged red
eyes darkened
lustful smile
pink inside

glistening dew
falling,
slowly trickling
pieces of lust
washing down
your thighs.

coaxing carefully
measured breaths
leaking spent desire

...waltz of you

I am the emptiness
your waiting dreams
hidden desires
pent up screams.
wash away thy pain
kneel
beside me,
embrace
my darkness
dance with my lust.

follow the chimes
inside your head
waltz with me
test the bonds
push away yesterday
walk into tonight

whisper
to me
your delight.

instruments
played
against your skin
strumming
desire

fragments of pleasure
replayed
over and over
open your eyes
......
shall we begin again?

.so many ways

A thousand images
replayed
of you
walking away...

hundreds of words
whispered
through the years
Now alone,
I sleep
in silence..

memories,
like footprints...
leading far away
lost in the sunset
of yesterday

Tomorrow
will not,
so easily wash
the stains
left on my
pillows....

I carry
scars,
like badges

Victorious,
sing the praises

fragments,  remain
reminders of pain

What was,
will
come again.....

Every Day , Memories

Flood my senses

Pieces of you

Fading, in and out

I sleep alone

holding, onto

The jagged shards

Left behind

When you walked away

..WAXING DROPS OF YOU

waxy drops
falling
clumps
of desire
melting


beads of sweat,
nay ecstasy
I smell you ,
my fingers
coated
with pearls of you

flickering candles
eyes dialted,
awash
in the moments
spent
catching your breath

Pent up inside
a magical cage
held together
by invisible bonds

Held for me....
