Mistress of the Flame ~ #dark #poetry

She dances with the fire

A mistress of the flame

Where some must go, to find her

Yet, no one knows her name

She swirls about, like smoke

She is kindled from the ashes

And she’ll burn you, this is certain

With each spark, her power flashes

Her mystery, kept hidden

Her secrets, safe within this place

The spirit, who feeds on fire

Is the girl, who has no face

 

Author’s Note:  Have you ever looked into a fire and wondered what it was you saw?  There are always fire spirits present.  Can you see her cloak?   😉

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

It approaches
Lingering shadows
Filling the blackness
Haunting illusions
Filling empty spaces
Surrounding the innermost
Profound secrets
Hiding in the night

Friday Fantasy ~ Where Demons Play – #poetry

Do I dare tempt my fate
With iron that blocks the way
Yes, I shall open up the gate
Let my imagination stray

Reflected in the waters there

Into the hidden secrets where

My inner thoughts do now betray
Kept shrouded in these stones
Where the Orphic demons play
Imprisoned in a vast unknown

Though no one ever sees her

You always know she’s near

To pass away the hours

And help you quiet fears

You never have to worry

She’ll be with you till the end

To keep your secrets hidden

Your best imaginary friend
