What is...?

What is left when it is all over?
Pain. Memories. New beginnings?

Woman of passion

Scorching like a raging forest fire

With the smooth touch of silk sheets.

Kisses So tempting

Red lips like hard candy

Injected with sweet

I write and I write til my hand starts to ache

But it’s worth all the pain when the thoughts in my head

Are untangled enough for my mind not to break. 


Like a brain hurricane that will never give in

Anger and joy beat the

More Than A Friend.

You are always there when I need you
Always within reach when I want you
You are more than a friend.

You will always calm me when I feel anger
You will always comfort me when I feel pain
You will never judge me.

He stepped into your dreams

Stomping feet marching bands.

You pricked your little ears

and listened to his twisted chant

Crystal-clear enchanted

Vibrant with perverted joy.

He rocked you frail infant fascinated

Found asleep in motherly arms.

The rhythm of his heart: the softest lullaby

You did not try to fight

Your enduring

It hurts sometimes to think of days we spent together
In our sunny World
And now I'm here in NYC I made it
You should be with me.

My memories
Like a far-off breeze
Go chasing on across the night
But I know I will be ok.
It was

When The Cutter Comes Calling

And then there were two alone in the gutter.

The alley was dark  just me and The Cutter.

His straight razor in hand he then grinned at me:

"Come to me lad and i'll set you free"

Moonlight in his eyes and blood on his clothes:

"Another scream for my ears another feast for the crows"

Love Your Fuckin' Money.
 
Stepping off the fuckin' bus tripping over the fuckin' tourists
Who litter the dirty fuckin' streets documenting their fuckin' visits
With 'I was fuckin' here' poses and their 'can't wait to show my fuckin' friends' smiles
Flash fuckin' flash go those fuckin' cameras as I shield

As the waves break and the gulls cry a lonesome boat sails into the night
As the wind howls and the skies darken it passes the rocks on which many have been broken
As the clouds part and the rain descends it sails out into the wide open
And as I watch

It rang out like a shot in the dark with lightening speed the bullet hit the tiger right straight in the heart !

The entry was divine the effect as such :

Her mighty claws were deep in his soul . The fire between them

I want contentment to impregnate me

I want it to live inside me

Ooze down within me like heated honey.

But this ill-natured skull seems to be in the way

So it

Fireworks exploded in your heart

When she held your hand tightly

A gust of wind caressed your sorry soul

With the Hopes of brand new Joy

She was yours she told you so.

Her sweet words: nothing but lies.

She was yours you believed her

Pain and sorrow grabbed your throat

She was yours
