I burn with a fire
And quench your desire
All with the touch of my hands
No choice can you make
Your soul I will take
I’m more than you can withstand

As flames light the sky
Mischievous, sly
And fall to the earth from above
The land will ignite
With passion’s delight
As you feel my lust for your love

I will lead you astray
Then wash it away
With an iciness kept deep inside
From my clutch you can’t run
I have chosen the one
My hunger cannot be denied

Originally shared three years ago, I thought this poem fit Michael’s prompt “Orbit”, perfectly.

cave-912219_960_720
This rock is now my home, a place
I travel on, through outer space

A flight to galaxies, still unknown
Adventures, by myself, alone

Standing in the open air
I see Jupiter, floating there

Watching me, a leery eye
As I go quietly, drifting by

In awe of all the mysteries
On this planet, I can see

Ribbons of waves across, a band
Could I ever walk this land?

Shall I journey far across?
And glide, just like an albatross

In an atmosphere, unconfined
Perhaps, a chance to just unwind

Or should I stay here, bide my time
In this universe, quiet, sublime

A Place in the Dark ~ #poetry #Afterwards

Show me a place, secluded, away

Somewhere, no one else can find me

A place where shadows come to play

And break the ties that now bind me

Dear night, fall fast, in winter months

Tis when I can be myself, and breathe

In the cold, where sighs can be seen

Crystals form, on my skin, unsheathed

And as they cling to me, oh, how I try

To escape the light, however stark

But I cannot face the glare, so blinding

Please, let me find, a place, in the dark

When Petals Fall ~ #poetry of #winter

Petals fall in flakes of white

Winter calls, this frosted night

Whipping winds against the pane

Crystals form a frosty mane

Upon the glass that yields the cold

Yet, I shiver as the day grows old

Is it the day or is it me

Who ages like the barren tree

That shivers in the frosted night

When petals fall in flakes of white
