Mask

Beauty incarnate
happiness radiates, tears
silently flowing

Amber Flame

Soft amber flame glows
heat engulfs all in its path
in candlelit dreams

Love Unrequited

I gave you my all
the harsh moon cast its shadow
Silence filled the air

Love unrequited
eyes shed tearsdrops of fire
unable to stop

Unhinged emotion
blinded by uncertainty
sedated for now

Happy Ending Denied

I'd never felt happier
never felt so at ease
you were my warm winter fire
and my cold summer breeze
my light in the dark
guiding every step of the way
I can't believe you're gone
until we meet again one day.
 
I know I'll get over you
and carry on like before
I no longer sit feeling blue
waiting for you to walk through the door
to myself I stay true
nursing the heart that you tore
I will search for another you
although there's not one, I am sure
 
You told me you would wait
but again you lied
you said you'd never leave
and would always be right by my side
you promised you'd get better
well you couldn't have tried
because you left me all alone
my happy ending denied

On the Beach

Waves crashed against rock
serenity unfolded
in the pale moonlight

My Angel

Maybe you heard me calling you
my silent whispers
echoing in the cold night
Maybe you saw my tears
reflected in an ocean under moonlight
Or felt my fear 
through the heat of a flickering flame.

Before you came

I was nothing
but a shadow of a lonely ghost
You came to me
when I needed you the most
No longer sat in the shadows am I
stepped out into light
with my head held high

No longer do I feel alone
for I know now 
I am never alone

You are here by my side 
you always have been
and always will be
My true friend
My angel

In the Dark

In the dark you wait
for shadows of loved ones past
to show you the light.

The End Is Nigh

For most the end is but a mere speck on the distant horizon
alas for me I sense it looming ominously near
I see it lingering through hazy shades of fear
Oh my beloved!  For me, shed not a single tear
For I shall charge bravely into battle before giving up the ghost
clad heavily in armour and clutching spear
I beseech of thee to not pity my plight my dear
instead cry out 'let the battle commence' with gleeful cheer
and as you gaze upon glistening stars in the mournful night sky
glancing memories shared of you and of I
seek comfort in having knowledge that the end is nigh
for you have been blessed with the gift of a final goodbye.

Blurry Eyed

Blurry eyed
tears escape me like sap from a tree
unable to control their flow
falling ever silently 

unable to switch off
thoughts filling my narrowing mind
slowly slipping out of sync
impossible to unwind

dear friend
I will hold you close to my heart
my angel, my watcher, my occasional lover
If only I'd known you from the start

Out of time
my life ebbs from me like high tide afternoon
my soul unravelling more each night
under the ever watchful moon

for I lost my smile
and found a frown upon my brow
the lines on my face show a journey
one which must end now
