POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
New at this, raw and uncut. Mixes emotion in short phrases, hopefully leaving enough room for you to read between the lines
THE FAMILY MAN
Overlooking wastelands
Covered in glory
His mind in silence
Leaving all behind
Focussing on tomorrow
King without a kingdom
On his way home
Covered in glory
His mind in silence
Leaving all behind
Focussing on tomorrow
King without a kingdom
On his way home

POETIC NOTHING #1
If it's not devouring
Don't call it love
Call it whatever you want
But please
Do not
Use the word
I just mentioned
Above

HER DARK ANGEL (as requested by Louis Cyphre himself)
With his dark wings
Carefully wrapped around her
She smiled
As she watched
His inferno fade
Looking at the new man
That arose from the ashes
She had always
Known his true color
For it was she
That replaced
The fire inside
Carefully wrapped around her
She smiled
As she watched
His inferno fade
Looking at the new man
That arose from the ashes
She had always
Known his true color
For it was she
That replaced
The fire inside

PATIENCE
Sometimes
Speechless
Simply means
Lacking the right words
For the moment

UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS
There’s but a thin line
still separating us
Just a small layer
of damp and tensed air
A vulnerable border
of breakable minds
The hearts by choice
already intwined
One slight inhale
would easily
cross the distance
So there they stand
Breathless
Silently wishing
for wind
still separating us
Just a small layer
of damp and tensed air
A vulnerable border
of breakable minds
The hearts by choice
already intwined
One slight inhale
would easily
cross the distance
So there they stand
Breathless
Silently wishing
for wind

I SKIP THE FLOWERS (for Valentine's Day)
You may open your eyes now
For the waiting is over
Enough time there, to change
Into something more elegant
Because later this evening
You are mine
For the waiting is over
Enough time there, to change
Into something more elegant
Because later this evening
You are mine

BAREFOOT WIND
Once more
Drifting along shadows
Of screaming wasteland
Looking for substitutes
That replace
All impressions
Of the day
Drifting along shadows
Of screaming wasteland
Looking for substitutes
That replace
All impressions
Of the day

STRIPPED
Lost in her embrace
Clouded by her soft whispers
He parts from this world
And wishes secretly
To remain
Afloat
Clouded by her soft whispers
He parts from this world
And wishes secretly
To remain
Afloat

BLACK LIGHT (like a moth)
Regardless the stars
That shine tonight
I still find new depths
Of unexplored darkness
Carefully concealed
Inside the caverns
Of my mind
That shine tonight
I still find new depths
Of unexplored darkness
Carefully concealed
Inside the caverns
Of my mind

SENSES
With closed eyes
I played your inner soul
Until my lips went numb
And secret flavors glow
While in my embrace
Your arc becomes undone
I played your inner soul
Until my lips went numb
And secret flavors glow
While in my embrace
Your arc becomes undone
