POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My poetry and my singing express my deepest emotions, through them, I am able to transmute pain, love, lust, etc. into art.
Drakken Rising
You think you do
but you don’t
know me that is
the sunny face
outwardly shown
masks the clouds within
anger jealousy violence
writhe like demon spawn
in my soul
Before I learned to hide
to force the darkness to sleep
I would have ripped your throat
out with my teeth
savoring the blood
and fear infused
for what you seek to do
what is mine is mine
make no mistake
To try and take
what I have claimed
would be the gravest ever made
you will not survive
an encounter with that
which lies...

Release
the exasperated look
on your face
when I hugged you
goodbye
sealed your fate
affectionate is my nature
and yet
for your sake
I have reined it in
time and time again
you are the one
with the problem
not me
illustrative of myriad reasons
why we can never be lovers
maybe not even friends
our relationship
always on your terms
must stop
I shall seek elsewhere
for what I want
someone who embraces me
with all
the love in their heart
enthusiastically
not as an obligation
My worth is priceless...

Maybe
maybe today
it will happen
you will come over
gaze into my eyes
and realize
that there is nothing wrong
with your feelings
maybe absence
led to introspection
you missed my smile
laughter and quirks
and never
want to be without them
in your life
maybe love
will triumph
like in the stories
that are spun about
and cherished
by dreamers like me
who still believe
maybe truth
will finally make
an appearance
between us
and you
will admit what
I have always known
maybe today
it will happen
you will come over
gaze into my eyes
and realize
that there is nothing wrong
with your feelings
maybe absence
led to introspection
you missed my smile
laughter and quirks
and never

Sometimes
Sometimes
loneliness feels like
the only consistency
in my life
not that I am not
an independent person
often preferring to be alone
with my thoughts
sometimes
those thoughts circle
around and around
and I wish that I had
someone to share
that time with
to lay in bed late
sharing soft kisses
sometimes
wondering why I feel
this way when
my life is full
in so many ways
with family and friends
people who care
when my life is awry
sometimes
contemplating the...

Windsongs
I hear
whispers begin
murmurings around the edges
of consciousness
tendrils wending
twining magic about
receptive spirits
restlessness encouraged
flirting with abandon
enticing danger
airy elemental
ruffling and tossing
all in its path
lacing fingers
meanderings in my hair
caressing face
insubstantial kisses
brush my lips and eyes
invisible lover
wind tales
carried near and far
sharing secrets
zephyr’s breath
intoxicating passionate lovers
storm bringer

Farewell
confusion
where are we
carnival ride from hell
spinning endlessly
in space
no forward movement
stagnation
starts and stops
just when I think
progress has been made
towards resolution in
our ship
dead in the water
arrested
by the obstinance
both of us
have in abundance
irresistible force meets immovable object
wasting time
relearning each other after every
separation
not of my choosing
because you can’t
handle whatever feelings
your heart holds
hidden within
for me
passion...

Salacious Thoughts
Salacious thoughts
frolic through my brain
fantasizing of you
random spikes of
pleasure shoot up
from my love zone
just daydreaming of
reaching up to caress
loved face
stroking your hair
makes me throb
picture me tasting
sensual mouth
nibbling lips teasing
their way to erogenous zones
never found before
on the couch I straddle you
pressing down onto
your hardness
rubbing myself against you
my pussy purring at the friction
lifting my shirt
to give you access to
my breasts ...

Slippery when wet...
slow on the curves
sliding down
past the pink tipped mountains
into the valley
engines throbbing
precipitously hurtling
into oblivion
flashes of lightning
explosions of speed
intensify
finger on the button
tapping out the rhythm
touch me
rub me
love me
suck me
lick me
stroke me
fuck me
but be careful
I am
slippery when wet
sliding down
past the pink tipped mountains
into the valley
engines throbbing
precipitously hurtling
into oblivion
flashes of lightning
explosions of speed
intensify
finger on the button
tapping out the rhythm
touch me
rub me
love me

stroke me

Carnal knowledge
One day at my house
we were playing
a game
I don’t remember
how it started
but suddenly
daringly
you stood up and took
off your clothes
standing naked before me
in all your glory
stunned
I just sat there looking
trying to be casual
as if this happens all the time
between friends
wanting
to go down
on my knees
take you in my mouth
stroke you with
tongue
hear you gasp
and moan
as you grow hard
under my ministrations
standing

second chances
heart in my throat
I gathered my courage
and dialed
at the sound of your voice
joy bubbled
up from deep within
transforming despair
into a new beginning
cautious optimism
leapt up
before an insidious little
whisper
reminded of what
had gone before
to be or not to be
is indeed the question
carpe diem
gather ye rosebuds
and all that
do not dwell in the past
make the most
of opportunities and
potential
second chances

Just Tell Me
why can’t you
just say to me
go away
then I would
be free to move on
make the break
complete
instead we live
in purgatory
or rather
I do
because I am
the one who cares
the one who loves
the one who dares
yeah, that’s me
the fool
who can’t walk away
who can’t take a hint
who can’t even say
what she wants
because you won’t
just tell me
just say to me
go away
then I would
be free to move on

Missing
someone
who means so much
to me
just walked
away
left me drowning
in agony
was it all false
illusion
conjured by a heart
mine alone
must hide away
sorrow
no one must see
or know
especially not you
love
hides its face
a mask
forever in place
laughing
pretending to be free
yet bound
with sadness and loss
bereft
of my animus
in limbo
aching and alone
seeking
whatever connection
I can
in trivial events
lacking
a crucial part
of myself
leaving me in the...
