Spartacus2012 Poetry (404)

It was a tragic love affair
I may just quit it all
perhaps become a bum
hop aboard a lonesome train...

She was a first true love
such long raven hair
so dark and lovely
all the way to her scaly feet...

A wholesome lady
who loved cornbread
all day long with beak lips
my corn loving lady..

As a joke she would yell "caw"
and begin flapping her arms
then one day as she sat on a fence
some guy hunting shot her...

Texting and phone calls
internet chatting
fireworks and music
high definition television...

Your favorite pet
beautiful flowers you like
coffee and lunch
these ordinary things

Become extraordinary with you
things I like to talk about
with you,
I wish to talk about love

With you...

Within my heart there reigns
nothing but desire for you
to keep it to myself
is punishment self-inflicted...

The way you whisper
my name with such praise
with you it is different
my name is safe in your mouth
don't ever stop smiling
it will kill me
I will stop breathing...

You my love are Springtime bedecked
around you fount, flowers and plants
the smell of cottonwood and peaches
your hair hangs like Spanish Moss
what divine radiance
of sun in the fourth sphere
you at purple daybreak
the morning star brimful
none which can equal
your southern loveliness...

I desire your long black hair
to flow like a running brook
to hear your voice like a melody in the night
to awake next to you with winged heart
you my hearts desire
what relief of torment
I desire to become as one with you
our bodies eternally entwined
aimless in sexless foreplay...

My lover
you know
my secret sorrows
the rest of the world
knows not...

You see
my wounds
that never show
on my body
that run deep

and hurt more
than any that bleed...

All is wish for
is for you to want me
and for this pain
to be purposeful...

When you are away
for days at a time
I do not wish
to see anymore...

I close the curtains
lie in bed
while nothingness
washes over me...

Without love
and romance
life has no gleam
of sunshine...

When you are gone
I am gone
so far gone
drowning

in quicksand...

You the animated pyre
forging a lustful fire
I flee from the darkness
that freezes my life
embracing this moment of death desire...

I am endlessly drawn
to you like a moth to a flame
you the object of my spiraling flight
your bright sun pulls me closer
I burn to speak your name...

Adrift in small sea of light
see dark path to your remains
this funereal night sum of all fears
kindles as you ship like unfurl your mane
flickering flaring as I draw near...

Mesmerized by such blazing beauty
in path of sacrifice I am caught
powerless to resist calescent sexuality
I immolate in the very fire that is sought
burning in your flame with futile delight...

Mi amor the beacon to my demise
with doom the most certain end
gliding towards your banshee cries
my spirit will never turn craven
intoxicated with love into your flame I descend...

Perhaps there is nothing
sometimes everything
often just anything
I require something...

Maybe if one has nothing
they have everything
then experiencing the freedom
to do anything without fear of losing something..

I still search for that something
to find that missing half
that brings warmth and shelter
something I can turn to..

Something that will be there
all the day long
enduring one storm then another
and like gentle flowers bloom into awareness!

Something and someone to shelter me
from shadow lonesome nights
when wolves howl and dogs bark
within the realm of dreamless sleep..

Some say great beasts find peace in a cage
the last resort that restrains wings
let that something be a gentle woman
to help pry those bars open...

Cold overcast Sunday afternoon
no place else I'd rather be
preparing candlelight dinner
longing for loves immortality...

She calls and is traveling to me
the city sighs on this Sunday
as afternoon transforms to evening
O holy Sunday I await her lovely sashay...

When I'm sad she brings the thunder
her tears the refreshing rain
her laughter the soothing southern wind
blowing away the deepest of pain...

This most serene Sunday afternoon
I'm not breaking aching or faking anymore
or drowning frowning loveless galore
my southern lady just walked through my door...

Stay elusive shade
of my beloved
I wish to caress
the rounded hills
of your form...

My hands seek
the fertile valleys
entangled in gentle branches
green and cool
that are you...

You, silent giver
of secret worlds
sweet love of non-illusion
hands of tender leaves...

With obedience of steel
my heart follows your attraction
why lure me with solicitations
only to vanish and depart?

Lay with me
upon bed of sailing ship
unclasp and unzip revealing such beauty
close your eyes and hear my moans
embrace being fully human...

Share my bed
tyranny triumphs over pain
lay next to me in praise of my bed
until the early morning light
brings fresh blues and friendly reds...

2013 is at its end
days and words gone
I celebrate alone
it is quiet
quiet is good...

I light a candle.

What the New Year will bring
I do not know
only God knows
my life for Him to know

I cannot know.

Whatever I did was wrong
this I know
whoever I met to forget
I know

Everything was for love.

Love is why I'm here
love is why I believe
anything can be achieved in life
New Years most glorious light

is sweet hope
2013 is gone
dead is the year...

When I think of you
I am between
sleeping and awake
where I remember

dreaming of
you...

I have seen
the best of you
worst of you
still

I choose
both...

You know me
the one me
I know you
all of you

tame me
tenderly...

Then I shall be
unique to you
and like flowers
in a field

We shall be
side by side
in beautiful hues...

You may not believe it
but my last lover
was an extraterrestrial
which caused me great distress
the way she transformed me
her out of this world dress..

She brought winter with her overnight
pseudo-snow fell rocket high
a siren unlike all the other girls
pleasing form to my human eyes
making love under force field
captivating planetarium starlit skies..

Kisses of rapture times warp speed
circling the rings of Saturn
I will follow her to the end of the galaxy
my lips locked with hers, I love her
beam me up darling and kiss me
my lovely beautiful femalien..

Lost in the wilderness
I can't look back
the sky is dark
fading to black.

A knife in my heart
hard to pull out
it cuts so deep
but I refuse to shout.

Where is the love?
blood dripping to dirt
now i feel nothing
but pain and hurt.

Afraid I stumble and fall
Dear Lord I pray
this is not the end
this world a shade of gray.

I hear the reaper coming around
to put me six feet under
the hard cold ground
clouds lightning and thunder.

Lord, the way I have lost
I'm running out of time
I'll do whatever to pay the cost
the highest mountain I will climb.

Bring my lady into my arms
help me get back on track
without her my life is over
everything fading into black...
