Looming

It’s cool, cold, stark and windy my love the wind and wolves howl through the trees they want me my love the trees have come alive like in a nightmare but this is real my love they stoop and bend twist their gnarled bodies stretch razor blade fingers towards my face my love hell opens the earth before me I refuse to say his name wants me my love he wants to feel my sinew and bones in his teeth

but then there’s this image of you my love smiling in my doorway an ethereal blue moonlit glow around your face your eyes, dark, eternal deep doorways into everything I’ll ever need to places I’ve never seen and never will without you

hold me in your heart brush off the lustful attempts others make to have you ignore the words of those that care but don’t understand confess your soul to mine pour everything into my cup and I’ll drink the poisons for you and share your burdens I’ll consume your darkness and lay to waste your enemies my love

then you’ll walk through my door like in this dream and the horror will die with lost hope when my one love comes home to me

road trips, fucks and rain

let's go for a drive let's go somewhere we've never been let the rain fall and soak us let your hair flatten onto big smiles and hug your dimples let your make up run off the cliff of your jaw and into your mouth yes, let's walk down a forgotten country road barefoot our clothes clinging to the lusts of our starving flesh letting the sand squish through our toes with every new step that we take together ...and fuck it, let's live the rest of our days just like that

Pleiades concerto

say it plain with simple words in your own beautiful tongue say it like you mean it with the sweet tongue of angels

lyrical lonely, silver tones shimmering like stars melting into the moon dancing on beams back to the cold dirt of a mystified earth

where I stand looking up basking in bluish gray light listening to the heavens sing into my soul the simplest mysterion

just one note

I barely remember writing last night just 3D visions of you only the moon and the sky remain --and that feeling I couldn't refuse that feeling that forced my pen to puncture heaven and bleed it for more words about you

Flower

A pale moon drowning in a bruised azure sky over my tepid flower glowing reddish in ghost white light made just for angels the cool of the evening chilled your stem dew clung to your petals but you grew restless and shook it all off when you my rare flower finally bloomed, you bloomed late —but not too late each night I watched from far away while the moon bathed you in its silvery light each night I suffered as you lit up under its beams only when the sky was dark would I dare come near and when I did, I would sing to my flower I died every time I had to tear myself away from you I suffered for so long like this until one cloudy night I stole the flower from the moon while it slept and ran far far away in fear, you trembled in my arms certain that the moon would find us when the clouds cleared the next evening the moon arose to shine upon my flower and saw that you were gone at first the moon was torn and empty but soon it became furious it grew monstrous and desperate and powerful it used to respect and fear the sun it used to die in the sun but not anymore it became stricken with a jealous vengeance so intense that the moon could also rise in daylight it searched everywhere for the flower turning blood red in its anger cutting itself into pieces and pasting its remains onto the sky every night, healing and growing long like a shadow at dusk threatening darkness itself without the blade of the sun the moon searched and searched but it couldn’t find her she’s mine now I won her heart fairly and gave her mine freely (though it feels stolen) down below, under extreme duress the earth creaked like an old ship lost at sea in a storm kicking inside death’s womb dying for rebirth and I gave it to her when I planted you in her soil then I rose up and I slew the moon hanging its head on my wall deep into the night’s sky we were finally free to live openly so you and I made a home grew a garden and walked where God walked in Eden

drawn to her

she looked sad at me her eyes locked open open forever

[darkhorsepoet]

stumble drunk

I'd pour kisses sweeter than wine all over your beautiful face until your lips were drenched, dripping and drunk with my love stumbling into me babbling in a tongue only I could understand I taste it for myself and pass out in the bushes
