Unpromised Poems

Dorothy Dandridge Eyes

Unless you give into a trans,
And live your life

Tomorrow Unpromised

...Where would we be
without the bomb
Was Einstein a savior
or devil aplomb

Till stealing its physics  
unmaking our bed

The world on the edge

 memories yet to burn 
that Fall we spent in lust’s i...

Day and Night

...One moment, a hint of love
The next, abruptly shoved

Hands over heart: Pray

Hell Upon Earth

...The livery on fire,
  its horses set free

Misery beckons,
  the future to bleed

The gates are broke open,
  all streets painted red

New Light Unspoken

...Nocturnal flower
In need of sleep
Your petals wilt
The count for sheep

New dawn unpromised

A croupier wearing
Sun’s setting mask

Through endless courtship
Faith on the ru...

Trailing Closer

...Those footsteps ahead
  are now footsteps behind

The past but a memory
  the future declines

My cadence is slowing
  my direction unclear

When frozen in place
  on the wind I can hear

Hell Upon Earth

  its horses set free

Misery beckons
  the future to bleed

New Light Unspoken

In need of sleep
Your petals wilt

Night Thoughts Run Wild

...The night is the most lonely time of my life where I sit and be alone with my thoughts. My perception of what I thought my life was gonna be like is now so dull and dysfunctional.I cant believe after...

New Whispers

...Sometimes,
in the shadows
of the early morning light

Resting in the 
shade,
awaiting the beginning

And hiding
from the end
of all that’s unpromised

I watch
the questions disguise them...

This Present Mine To Own

...The day now split
  drifts off unpromised,
  the dream remains with me

Our words as jewels 
  now treasured pawn,
  their tickets burning free

The nights by measure
  mornings fled,
  tho...

New Whispers

...Sometimes,
  in the shadows
  of the early morning light

Resting in the
