The bewitching hour has finally come

When I am no longer feeling numb

The time I envision, the perfect scene

Not ordinary visions, but words, fill my screen

Imagery exposed, with the lightest touch

These are moments, I treasure so much

A time, when I can fall, into the night

That caresses my soul, and holds me tight

The moonlit skies, the twinkle of stars

This is the time that takes me so far

Gathering thoughts, I feed off the words

A creature of poetry, longing to be heard

I write in a genre

Oft misunderstood

I’ve tried to explain it

The best that I could

These aren’t just words

That float in my head

They are my soul

Releasing instead

The passion inside me

Pounding deep in my heart

I am a writer, a poet

And my words I impart

On all who will listen

This is my true devotion

Flowing out from within

Like my endless emotion

The windows gave no warning

Of the madness kept inside

She walked in silence, mourning

Searching for the soul who died

Wandering about, unknowing

She was quite simply an aberration

A mind filled with naught, overflowing

Condemned, in her own damnation

For DB…. He’ll always be watching over you  ❤

 

Days go by, more slowly now
Since you left me, here, to stay

God took you to a better place
I understand that more, each day

The sands, on which I find myself
Quietly sitting, reflecting life

Are cold and damp, without you
As my soul is filled with strife

The surf that endlessly beats
Though we two, are now apart

Reminds me of how much we loved
You’re forever in my heart

Still, I can find some comfort
In the storms, when I’m feeling low

For I know you’re watching over me
Each and every time I see a rainbow

Blackened eyes that bare the night
She hides, in the alley way
A mission, she must carry out
One they talked about today

Dressed for shadows, against the light
She could stay, without being seen
Many were gathering, in the square
She would wait, for them, to convene

Quietly, on the rain soaked street
She could hear them, so many voices
The demon within her, now unleashed
And her darkened soul, easily rejoices

One by one, she silenced them
Until the blood ran from her lips
Her deed was carried out, quite well
All before the moon’s final eclipse
