Fearing she would never rise again

Her body anchored to the ground

Fallen angel, black as night

Though beautiful, profound

Prayed to find the light above

The only one, to save her soul

Watched it, as it faded away

The darkness, devoured her, whole

Fallen angel, time has passed

Your journey ended on Earth

Never, shall you soar, anew

There was no chance, for your rebirth

Candlelight upon her face
Flickers of fiery yellow glow
The seduction, at last, does begin

A brilliance, far beyond the flame
Sheer fire burns in darkest eyes
Desire, defines her, from within

Voice, as tender as a rose
Intentions, sharper than its thorn
A temptress in silk, the fabric of sin

Your body, swelling, in the heat
Blazing, upon cool satin sheets
The arousal of lovers, skin against skin

The fire burned inside him
His temper followed suit
By light of day, a mortal
By night, immortal pursuit

The demons preyed upon him
Though he fought, a valiant fight
He could never win the battle
Twas a human’s only plight

He tried his best to break away
Their powers grew much stronger
Pulled him apart, his body gave
He couldn’t bare it any longer

They enveloped him in powers
No mere mortal could contain
Never again, to walk the earth
Locked inside an immortal plane

Cupid’s Conspiracy – #poetry #FebruaryWriting

Disobeying Venus
He finds cause to bleed
Beautiful Psyche looks for love
He plants the sacred seed

Cupid finds delight
Keeping secrets from his quest
She obeys his commands
In hope, she will be blessed

When sisters prey upon her
Their jealousy prevails
Psyche grabs an arrow
On her lover, she assails

He escapes, her only fear
Flies away, and leaves her be
Seems Cupid’s betrayal of the gods
Was an act of conspiracy

Immortals have their way
In the magic that they carry
Human’s leave their mark
Upon their adversary

Steadfast Turmoil – #poetry #FebruaryWriting

She was ever so faithful to trouble

Seems chaos was her middle name

Always pointing the finger

Never once would she take the blame

Devoted to causing confusion

He knew not what she had in store

There was no peace around her

This shook him to his very core

Behind them, the city, in mayhem

Explosions, igniting the skies

She simply walks away again

Unconcerned, with its demise
