Lingering Taste of Passion

Darling can you hear the beating of my heart
as you lay upon my chest 
fingers locked together
as I feel the warmth of your breath caressing my neck
our embracing moment has left a lingering taste of passion in my mouth 
I won’t forget our moments we share for our passions run like 
the river runs down the mountains
I can see my reflection in your eyes 
see your soul leap for joy
as I look deep into the portal of your soul 
and there I will bring you a kiss
an embracing of our lips 
eyes closed in the moment of passion 
never for gotten in words unspoken 
but by your taste that lingers so

The Forbidden Fruit

 With one fruit and a touch of a human hand
a fruit that life sprung as a flow in it's roots
She picked without hast with no regret 
the serpent the devil himself 
used us through the sins of man 
now we will know judgement 
and the Devil will know no mercy from God's hand

I Have Had My Moment With Sadness Him Self

I have sat with sadness in tears
I have shared my sorrows in his presents
I do not share my woes with just anyone
for I have had my moments with sadness himself
and eat at his table shared a toast with his friends
opened my heart to his arms fought by his side for my own happiness 
that I fought so long that I lost all track of the time
I cannot remember my happy times for they ran away so long ago
seeking out someone who has no woe
and no means to lose their heart to sadness 
and toss away everything they hold so near to them self's 
to the side and forget that it's even there

Where Is Thy Rose

Where is thy rose?
I do not see it in my hand but I see blood pouring from my vision.
For thy thorns have pricked me

Where is thy rose?
I do not see it in my hand but there is a scent that lingers so sweetly.
For thy perfumer I smell so strongly

Where is thy rose?
I see it now in my garden
With bloody thorns and a perfume so sweet

The Way You Understood

For all the times I never saw the things I should have, 
I thank you for all the times you understood, 
our deepest feelings never taken away for they live in words unspoken. 
In some long ago time softly and from afar I loved you 
and you never new. 
Some meetings are fashioned by chance ours was a gift of just. 
Thank you for sharing my hopes and hurts. 
Thank you for all of the kind words that touched my heart

Startdust and the End

We are drifting through stardust, 
orbiting the suns array, 
turning with the moon, 
and going where the galaxy takes us
making space as we move about 
leaving our mark on the universe
we live on a blue and green planet with bits of wight fluff

we leave in our wake death and decay 
as we cause it every passing day 
and every movement the planet makes 

our blue and green planet is losing it's luster and glow it's halo turning gray 
as air turns to breathable trash 
making us sick 
and our deaths to happen early 

we have the need to fix what we cause 
but yet that it's all we do to fix it
our need is too grate and deep 

it's too grate to fix 
and too deep to need anything ales
and it will kill us 
in the end

Taste of Mortality

An empty grave and a holy coffin
a scent of a vampire’s soul
Leaving a smell of freshly tilled dirt
With an empty soul and broken heart
Thy flowers died long ago withered and without scent
Death was so sweet
and the Vampire has a taste of mortality by feeding off your soul

My Black Heart

>My black heart knows only your death
My roses have died 
My violets are no longer blue
My moon is full but has fallen out of its orbit 
Leaving the oceans lonely and tides to high
