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

thunderstorm-501914_960_720Clouds come together

In a battle of power

Colliding, one into the other

Clashing, crashing

A calamitous clamor

Like a toddler

Incessantly banging a drum

The rhythm of beautiful noise

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
