Lost Souls

 

Darkness descends with fingers of dread,

gripping hearts as heavy as lead,

midnight moments tick slowly by,

lapping up sorrowful tears we cry,

hope floats away in a misty mirage,

vanishing into an emotional collage,

isolations spreads as cold as ice,

throws us down like a gamblers dice.

 

The long dark night stretches it's legs,

relief calls out for freedom it begs,

dawn is shy to show her face,

releasing darkness in amazing grace,

midnight moments linger longer,

fear and anguish growing stronger,

lost souls cry for sweet release,

innocence and purity and glorious peace.

Basking In Moonlight

 

Sun slowly swallows the last of its rays,

stars start twinkling in their heavenly maze,

messages flicker across the sky,

lovers connecting on waves they fly.

 

Silent moon sets the horizon free,

climbing the sky with joyful glee,

bringing lovers together across the earth,

basking in moonlight giving love birth.

 

Memories are born in midnight moments,

wearing pure and sacred garments,

flowing through heart and soul of man,

uniting spirits as only love can.

 

Colourful rainbows twinkle in stars,

healing the pain of sorrowful scars,

opening doors of sweet love and hope,

embracing a future in which to cope.

Erotic Memories

 

Twinkling stars spinning webs,

moonlight casting out it's nets,

lures awaken lusty passions,

titilating deep sensations,

midnight moments wink and smile,

casting cares away a while,

sweet surrender so divine,

entwined together so sublime,

silken hugs in joyful splendour,

velvet skin so warm and tender,

lovers quest for deep fulfillment,

soul and body in perfect agreement,

twinkling stars in total alignment,

smiling down upon their assignment,

midnight moments caught in time,

erotic memories in their prime.
