“My old friend I hope you know just how truly cherished these times by the firelight are for me.” I said, watching a smoke ring slowly ascend into the dimly lit study. “Yes it is for me as well.” “Speaking of cherished things I was reflecting the other day on ghosts.” “Oh?” “Yes, you see,Continue reading “Reflections by the fire Deux”

Night drive
Low lit room with a hundred souls between us Oceans of stories and desires filling up their lusts Brown eyes killing me steadily in ways I know oh so very well My blue eyes are a sea of passion but she’s not thirsty I can tell So I smile at her, wishing she saw meContinue reading “Night drive”
Love I knew
Twinkling light dances off your hair and shimmering eyes November night gifts me the sight of your breath in sighs Barely perceptible but every bit a part of who you are Such is the love between us burning and pushing oh so far I found myself in places I said I’d never be only becauseContinue reading “Love I knew”
Death pulse
Look upon the one you love See how her beauty resonates Pay attention or you’ll miss it Day by day her light fades Until only a faint echo remains Death creeps Death seeps Death pulsates Death inculcates The ones who raised you since you were young Family surrounds you giving love Teaching you all theContinue reading “Death pulse”
The Horror Inside
From the outside its a nice house It’s a well maintained house But inside there are horrors The things that merely creep on the edges of your mind The shadows which you dismiss for the day’s business This house is teeming with their unhallowed glories Nonsensical figures of a cosmos bathed in nihilism Classically gothicContinue reading “The Horror Inside”
Moon girl
I remember the first time we met And you do too I’d be willing to bet The moon was suspended bright in the purple night sky Cause I can’t come out to play before I watch the sun die You smiled and I introduced you to my fantastical pearl I smiled as you showed meContinue reading “Moon girl”
Winter’s call
With the Winter’s chill raging like a river untamed I shake off the lethargy of Summer’s bane What awakens inside ascends as frost bitten breath Manifesting as life to some and to others as death The wintry mood is feared for its extremes of deprivation and despair Yet its forceful hyperborean dwellers are beautiful beyondContinue reading “Winter’s call”
Vespers
Cold wind flows past the dying trees in streams Taking the last leaves swiftly followed by moonbeams It is on darkening cobblestone paths that we tread Out of the approaching night’s bosom and dread To the tolling of bells do we steadfastly approach The serpent of old slithers along offering reproach Never mind his venomousContinue reading “Vespers”
Undo
When you look at me what do you see? Is it the reality or what you want me to be? I am walking the halls again just as before. Now they are adorned with Saints and more. Will they ever get to know me as You do? Or like before maybe I’ll fail them too.Continue reading “Undo”
Take me to Heaven. Take me to God.
“Will you take me to Heaven where the angels sing? Will you show me the Uncreated Light that burns for all eternity? I want to see the Tree that feeds life itself with each succulent fruit. I want to walk in the mist of the day and revel in the all consuming peace that neverContinue reading “Take me to Heaven. Take me to God.”
