POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have been writing for years. A poet is only as good as her inspiration. i'm a member of the dark poetry community.But lately feeling uninspired..looking for positive feedback..or just honesty.
I'll Paint you Beautiful
I've dreamed of you.
My imagiation painted
you radiant..
a drifting angel
in the last light of day,
More brilliant
than the hues of the setting sun..
Faceless
and unknown to me
my mythical prince of the ocean..
I paint you beautiful
I love you without judgement
unselfishly
wholeheartedly...
You've given me hope
When none was to be found..
Light in the dark..
Love in the emptiness..
Strength when I was weak
Meaning within my words..
Muse..

Woven Together
We were together
within a realm,
vast and galactic,
embracing without
boundaries.
The earth evershifting..
your arms engulfing me
beneath a shimmering
canopy of onyx and silver
Dusted with blinking stars.
Standing within wildflower fields of
amethyst,
orange and sapphire
the wind blew golden.
You..
My source of strength,
I showered your lips
with kisses..
You brushed the sliding tears
from my watery,pooling eyes
and gazed into my depths.
My heart skipped contentment....

Dreamscape Landfill
Sound surrounds
It echoes throughout
My own lil dreamscape
Landfill.
It drowns the empty space.
Ashes lay gently
Covering fractured wishes.
The sky bleeds
Wind screams
I dance upon abstract
Thoughts
And visions.
Tears collect creating
Puddles ..
Purples
Blues
Mixed paints
Of misplaced emotions
As I recall every memory.
I had this dream once
Of blackbirds
And angels
I kissed the moon
Softly singing, and ...

Kismet
The first words
to tickle my throat
to roll down like a rollercoaster
and trip off the tip of my tongue
were fuck you.
A storm was rolling in
The wind hummed rage
I shook like thunder
lashed like lightining
I'm done with your careless behaviour

Scarlet Oceans
Immersed
In scarlet oceans,
Fading light
Cease to
flicker.
Grasping porcelain
Windows closed
Weighty tides pulling me deeper
into cloudy emptiness.
Scarlet oceans
bleeding out into crimson rivers.
Muffled sounds
Swirling darkness.
Tranquil silence
Anguish numbed
Glassy windows
Fading light
Cease to
Flicker.
