Devil’s Whore

Roses red for the devil’s whore
Chained to his bedside, his service, her chore
Lustful and hateful and guilty as sin
Delicious and vicious
With always a grin

Roses red for the devil’s whore
Luring the innocent down to his door
Gracious and salacious, tempting their soul
Malicious and seditious
Devouring them whole

Spring

A breeze in the window
The sun through the door
Says the cold of winter
Shall bother us no more

Gathering branches
Walking in the wood
Hands dirty from nature
All being as it should

Love You

I love you as much as any girl can
The sweetheart, the silly, and Lucifer Sam
I love true your nature and beautiful soul
In all times of quiet and rigmarole

I love how you show me in truth that you care
And tend my wounds that are open and bare
I love what you give me by just being you
So much has been given and you never knew

Without you I’d never have stood on my own
Or had the strength to cut ties and leave pain alone
You don’t let me ignore those things that are wrong
and you make me face truths and help keep me strong

I love you as much as any girl can
The sweetheart, the silly, and Lucifer Sam………

Cursed

It’s cold and lonely in the shadow cast by your back turned to me.
No one to talk to and no comfort to be found.
Where does the left half turn when the right half is missing?
The emptiness of my soul echos every little sound.

I don’t believe in the sun, for all I see is now dark.
No moon or stars to guide or sun to help me bloom and grow.
My source of strength has left me and the joy’s gone away.
And if it shall ever return only time shall know.

Minds are churning in the heavy storm of change, unprepared
This sharp tongue of pain and fear I would reverse.
Would warmth of blood spilled melt thy heart turned cold?
And offer amnesty and forgiveness for the cursed.

Famous Last Words

The spirits conspire
a sweet torment for my soul
delivering you to far away lands
as absence makes my heart grow fonder
and dreams turn to you.

Fire kisses no longer ignite
from a trembling caress
and wishes of knowing you better
wash away in the torrential rain
destroyed by needles of melancholy despair.

For Thee

For thee who art not remotely of this world
yet captured the heart and soul of a girl

For thee who art wholly the warmth of the sun and light of the moon
and illuminates her day and night and always leaves too soon

For thee who art at a distance in time and in space
there is one who is missing the smile on thy face

Peace and Love

A pond full of mud and stones
reflects nothing
but as it clears and calms
your light will shine
sending strength and peace to all
who draw near.
cling to the angel of love and
disperse the darkness
for no man is an island unto himself
and you should delight
in loving kindness 100 times truer
than ever known before

Tears of a Friend

My heart bleeds for the pain and tears of a friend
Hurt and deception by another
Confusion and misunderstanding
I wish I could wrap my arms around my friend
And take the pain into myself
So that those around me may never know how much it really hurts.

My heart bleeds for the pain and tears of a friend
But I’m not allowed to help
They need time to be alone and think
I wish I could soothe away the harm that’s done
Like it had never happened at all
So that those around me may never know what it’s like to be hurt.
