POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
'FLASHBACKS TO MY CHILDHOOD'
Softly falls Winters shade,
On those who stand
upon the unmade,
Not a glimmer of light,
Nor sparkle or shine,
Can reach the souls,
Of those untold,
Compressed into natures mould,
We feel the burden of her call,
As time slips through
our feeble hands,
Like dominoes,
We will stand.
On those who stand
upon the unmade,
Not a glimmer of light,
Nor sparkle or shine,
Can reach the souls,
Of those untold,
Compressed into natures mould,
We feel the burden of her call,
As time slips through
our feeble hands,
Like dominoes,
We will stand.

'CONSCIENCE'
An eternal ringing
Sounds through the ages,
It comes a calling
At all those stages,
It knocks and bangs
On all our souls,
Until we hear
Its infernal call,
And even then
It doesn't soften,
It echoes still
And further often,
When ignored it won't relent
And when acknowledged,
It leaves a dent
A sizely hole,
In you and those you love,
Your head feels the drumming
Even if you can't see it coming,
And your heart feels its pressure
Beyond any measure,
Yet we all live through the days
Ignoring its simple plea,...

'Loves Craving'
Of all such
Continuous fascination,
Firelight trickled
throughout,
Never withered,
The only temptation
Is the steadily
growing passion,
That
Driven craving.

'The Curse'
Embracing the memories,
Of a crumbled reality,
Among mortal finds,
Lay a lovers hate,
Where pleasures dream,
Is free to dwell,
Upon the young.

'Goodbye'
Your love is my light,
Leading the way,
Your face is my guide,
My love will never sway,
Your smile and eyes,
The moment our love came to life,
The passion when you asked;
"Will you be my wife?"
A saddened smile,
You have the rest of your life.
A magical bond,
A true romance,
As up above,
Beyond the sea,
The stars shine on,
Bright as the sun,
Real as this;
Our true love.
And this, I say,
Is an endless day.
Blessed by us,
Is what we believe.
The strong white light,
My tunnels end...

'A Dark Love'
A reflection distorted,
In delicious waters,
Soft laughter,
Swallowed by lust
And a slowed,
Ravenous desire,
Familiar faces,
Immersed in death,
Searching for the light,
Lost in darkness.

'Wanting'
Unworthy,
Shivering desire,
Instantly out she cast,
The silky shadows lie.
Love echoed,
Silent.
Soft and delicious,
Absence and pain,
Tore through a blanket,
Of indecision.

'Let Go'
Loves pain,
Is humanities loss,
Yet you gained,
And became cross,
The years of torture,
Neglect and sorrow,
Filled your heart,
'til you believed there'd be no tomorrow.
Yet you never wept,
And so these tears I cry,
Are filled with your regret,
Because now there is no you and I,
And since the day we first met,
Until the moment
That I die,
I shall never forget,
The love we once had.
The love they said
Would never last,
The love you
Let go.

Spirit Within
I have enlightenment in my grip,
With every devouring laugh,
That the candlelight captures,
I leave the image of suicide showers behind.
The pain of love,
Deliciously melts my heart,
Your fragranced image,
Soft skin,
And gentle touch,
Pulls me closer into your embrace.
My eyes take in all that surrounds,
My heart desires
your comfort,
Your hot body cries out my name.
As if my nerves are nothing,
You hold me safe,
And as our lips meet in unison,
I know it is natures calling,
And I have found you,
My spirit within.

'Lost Love'
My porcelain heart,
Easily shattered,
Forever irreplaceable,
It belongs to you,
But you don't value its uniqueness.
It means nothing to you.
Glass shreds,
A once glowing
Passionate, Partnership.
The remains of my love for you,
Lay scattered on a river bank,
Stained with blood
And sorrow,
Over my lost love.

Love
Abide by its rule
You can't avoid its pull,
Survive its storms
It never conforms,
Let it carry you to rest
And forever it shall be your nest,
Speak its name
But never in vain,
Hold it true
And it will always feel new.

Love Between Us
Where is heaven,
If there be such a thing?
Encoded in our eleven,
Or when doves sing?
As light as a feather
Plucked from a birds wing,
Free to roam the heather
Only happiness it shall bring.
Complacent it is never
Above all else it is king,
A bond no man can sever
Symbolised in a ring.
It follows us where ever
With it we can do no wrong,
As long as we are together
It will always be strong.
