"Because Of You - (Joie De Vivre (Moins Di Cinquante))".


I have fallen in love,
a near broken woman,
aches and scars igniting her beauty
more than shades of pink or red
could ever have.
Each crease and every tear,
her glint with that smile.
Oh to dance just one life, with you,
adore and keep for you,
to hold your hands and feel alive.
My heart, as always was and is
forever yours, starved.

"Seven."

We seek impoverished realms
take all we survey,

trample the tide of humanity
dismember love.

Peer into our void
eyes full and green

waiting
watching
wanton

the congregation we hold.

Their belief's rip the ether
open doors,

empowerment
without choice

our number swollen with
seven signs carved

disciples crave

pulling every sinner
before our truth.

Brethren,
we are not the number of the beast

nor God
whom glide effortlessly
through lore
and dreams

humankind mirrored in every ill
thought conceived

the image created
before you

as we unleash from every corner.

Faith and hope

will draw their final breath.

Fifteen 05.

Guilt full view
blinds

Sentiment hanging, threads

And she said

''Fifteen 05''.

Contrived and
Convicted

Convoluted.

Slaughtered 

her very words that laid me bare.

Anon ~ 1969-2013.

The alcoholic sip of air
immerses the pain,
rage ripples the iris
takes hold of my tears
rips apart the joy of life washed in sin

despair focused
prepares the stench of death
bathed in lust

the addiction that itches the skin
crawls beneath,
waiting
for the moment of uncontrolled fever

smirks in the corner
as I bite another piece of me.

The wax baked on limp dreams
that I was special

within the fire of hate
the circle of make believe

my lover goodbye,
my friend and confidant

my alter ego.

Self Addressed Envelope.

Because you loved me
   you abandon me
dress fear
  with fear itself
          reflecting
          immersing
every shadow quivering

snapping her hand writing wrongs

you taint me
       shame me
                   hate me
When said and done
                create me?

Because you loved me
   you abandon me            
 redress truth
 with the contempt I deserve
                                 yet
         
she is still poetry
            her poisoned pen
                  twelve years to spill spit 
                                     
friendship dead.

All that's left
           
a letter to one's self.

Black Carnival.

Dreamscapes collide
blur the edges,
the canvass of carnage
a carnival

I sleep
one eye open,
watch death patiently pace
my shallow sanctuary

I fall thro' the keyhole
of indifference, maybe
it's better to go
than wake the wanton wanderings



of my vacant heart

The bed of nails aches
for my penance,
the genius of sorrow
embedded

being born

I cry

Madness made immortal
by the shatter of what was left behind

humankind.
