Till Death, Sweet Valentine

When all of breath has expelled life, and life has expelled breath, When all of love has ground to dust, and dust my heart does breathe, When all of music has captured silence, and silence my heart does hear, When all of sound bears your name only, and your name fills both my life and death, Then...

A Child's Heart

The card is just a little smudged -- amounts misjudged of paste that spread into the red. With hearts, lopsided, it's adorned -- yet love's transformed each fumbled part to highest art. Sweet imperfections glued on lace -- this gift of grace my dear child gave -- with gladness saved. Sign in to see full entry.

Angels' Song

When the stars you've built fall from your sky and fate sheds solemn tears from your eyes, know there's a place that cannot be seen deep in your soul where the Angels sing... Eternally they reside in us all. Waiting with longing our sorrowful call, ascending to us in hope and light honor and love... Sign in to see full entry.

THE HARDEST THING TO DO

I hold their hands As I said goodbye, I did not want to let go, Unfortunately, I began to cry. Giving up my children, Was the hardest thing to do, I could not let go However, my heart already knew. As I watch them walk away, Jumping into the car I was begging them to stay As I was holding the... Sign in to see full entry.

Succubus

As night time falls and the darkness crawls, A cold shiver runs down my spine. Bound to my bed by a lover's curse, A mistress of lust so Divine. My body bleeds an unholy sight, Each wound a memory I crave. Naked she slipped with ease to my dreams, My body then soul to enslave. Shadows like silk were... Sign in to see full entry.

When will I be clean Mummy?

Curled up in a corner, so scared and so alone, Tears are running down my face is there such a place I could call home? My body aches from my bruises, Cuts, and scars I bear, What did I do wrong and why don't you care? I live behind hidden bars "Just keep looking at the ground" I whisper as I cover...

Monkeyshines

They say it was Jake's shenanigans that started the donnybrook, he the practical joker in search of the perfect schnook. He'd gone to the honky tonk that night to find a twit to trump when in through the door walked his ideal mark - a totally clueless chump. Certain he'd boggle the bumpkin's mind -...

Love's Light

It isn't always easy To love enough to show The one who pulls your heartstrings That you can let them go. For sometimes loving feelings Will make you hold so tight, That love your heart is holding Is smothering its light. And darkness cannot nurture A love that needs to thrive. It kills the very...

Flabbergasted

"Gadzooks!" she gasped and staggered back as she reeled at what she'd heard. It came like a bolt from out of the blue delivered in whispered words. She never saw it coming - you could see it in her eyes. Whatever secret those words contained had taken her by surprise. Her eyes bugged out, her tongue... Sign in to see full entry.

Silence

When starlight sparkles and the skies are still, my unspoken thoughts find their perfect home. No sound breaks the silence and never will so long as I keep my thoughts my own. My unspoken thoughts find their perfect home imperturbable in the peace of night. So long as I keep my thoughts my own, I... Sign in to see full entry.
