Unleashing Hell ~ #dark #poetry

She was calmly sleeping, dreaming

While inside her shell, she was silently steaming

Dormant no longer, she awakens, and sighs

The fire grows stronger, as she opens her eyes

A rumbling sound, makes the earth quake and shutter

A roar from her, bellowing, in the wake of a sputter

Her fiery heart, can hold back no longer

As her anger grows deeper, ever stronger

She releases the demons, kept in her shell

Unleashing the fires, from the gates of hell

Wisdom is patience

Standing, quietly watching

Awaiting repose

Drifting into Bliss ~ #poetry #freeverse

I drift

Into the clouds

Thoughts linger like the mist

Early morning wakes, yet I

Continue to sleep

Aware and unaware,

Ascending, descending

Lost in the turbulence of life

Wondering where I belong

Seeking answers

To questions never asked

Finding solace in the unknown

For there I am free

Untethered, no stigmas

Unchained to reality

Unprovoked by the demons

That caress my heart

I dream, still

Afloat, while sunlight fades

And the skies weigh heavy

I know of only one place

Where I can breathe, so

Blissfully into oblivion

I drift

She is ruffled grace

With beauty like no other

In the summer sun

Friday Fantasy ~ Bound – #poetry

Tags

A guardian in the forest, deep

His secrets, she will surely keep

With promises, of his heart’s desire

She will, covertly, claim his fire

His sword, unnecessary, for this task

She knows who hides, behind the mask

He holds on fast, to the hidden blade

Yet knows, this is, his masquerade

A man whose virtue knows its end

Bound to a woman, he cannot transcend
