Nite kisses

Your kiss still hot in my mind
your touch still caressing my flesh
the scent of your hair still hangs in the air
Nite kisses and dreams of you
fill the midnight air
i toss and i turn and for you i still burn
i hear your voice begging me not to leave
but in the end you know i must go
so now i suffer the pain of my hemorrhaging soul
as it bleeds out its love
dyeing like a burnt smoldering coal
nite kisses and sweet dreams of you
are all i have left
the touch of your hand still burns
in my mind the scent of your hair still lingers there
and nite kisses still caress my lips
as i dream of you once more
I wake to find realities harsh glare
rushing through the day
into the night to a new rendezvous
with nite kisses upon my dreaming lips

Crow

Black obsidian jewel
raucous caw foretelling doom
3000 miles of lies as the crow flies
midnight screams blood covered dreams
wither and die in the glare of that cold black eye
storm crow flies war on the rise
drums of war call fathers son
to die in some foreign land
seeking glory finding none
lifeless hands still griping broken blade
never to see his home again his love again
heavy flapping wings casting shadows on
cold lifeless forms
feasting on the innocent who died
to young never knowing why
bloated corpse reflected
in carrion crows unblinking eye
shocked grimace on pale cold face
never feeling the steel that found him
leaking his soul
to that lonely dark place
hand still clutching tattered black book
bloated corpse reflected in carrion
crows unblinking eye
head cocked whimsically
as Exodus sharp beak
feeds off the bounty of the land
. Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
and the red feasting began
Black obsidian jewel
on field of red
is this the banner we follow to our future fate
storm crow flies always ahead of
our lives bleeding our mortality to feed our insatiable greed
and its own horrible need
flights of glory painted black on field of red
keep your eyes on the prize and we may yet
commit collective suicide

magic

do you believe in magic

magic rings magic beans magic rhymes magic times

magic talismans

the witching hour

do you believe in magic
once upon a time

I used to dream of fairys flying on magical wings

Halloween haunting's that would make you scream

ghost goblins

dark coffins under the stairs

wand waving mage's

catching a ride on Pegasus back

do you believe in magic

not any more

the tears that grace my face when I think of you

have silenced the dragons roar

little Jackie Paper comes no more

do you believe in magic

as you grow older and your dreams

only come at a price

you trade off the magic little by little

until the hundred acre wood is

cold and still with out life

When I was a child, I spoke as a child

, I understood as a child when

I became a man, I put away childish things.

and grew old blind lonely and bored

waiting for death to close the door

dreams of tree houses never built

fairy gardens and magical fairs

when I think of how you would laugh and smile

when old Dragons growled

I can almost recall how the fairy folk flew

how magic lived in

my love for you

Dragon Slayer

How does one go about slaying a Dragon ?
A beast so ferocious so powerfull
and clever dimond hard scales over muscles rippling with strength
lightning speed flaming hot breath
magical is the beast
what instrument of destruction brings down such
a creature as this
a sword thrust through the heart
a bolt from the bow causing sinew to fail
catapult shot crushing bones ending flight
nay none of these you would find your self at the end of your days
its a much simpler thing this beast to slay a secret i will share this day
to kill a dragon to slay the beast
you need only to cease and desist
cease to believe in him
cease to see his magic of flight
close your eyes simply wish him away
turn your back let your mind grow old
and you shall end his days
burn out his flame end his flight
send him to his grave hardly with out a fight
but remember this before you turn your back
for every dragon you slay a 1000 more are born to
the youth of the new day
so go ahead turn away slay your dragon
and cease to believe
and find yourself growing older with out dragons
to give magic to your days

Dragons Flame


Screaming, kicking, shoved in to the world,
a child begins the race.
Dodging, twisting, avoiding, instinctively running,
as the child grows the race is slow.
Hardly noticed, through springs childhood
filled with endless summers of time unending,
but a sense of foreboding
as the dragon's flame grows.
You hurry into adulthood in a flurry to grow, your heels warm
as the dragon's flame grows.
Familles begin, family goes, friends pass,
as the dragon's flame grows.
The future is now, where did the past go?
Echoes of childhood dreams curled huddled in your brain,
as the dragon's flame grows.
Looking ahead, desiring to go back,
pushed headlong into the fray, you begin to wonder why,
as the dragon's flame grows.
Where does the time go?
Unending pressure, work
harder to gain, only to find
you have slipped behind.
Again summer has waned into fall's early snow,
and you feel the heat,
as the dragon's flame grows.
Looking behind now, not for the past,
but in fear at what tracks you,
gaining ground fast, you hurry onward,
as the dragon's flame grows.
Now praying to never finish the race,
winter has caught you
and sealed your fate.
Your time is now, no time, no place left to hide
you turn and
look into the jaws of the beast
and feel yourself falling into the abyss.
your fear is complete
as the dragon's flame grows.
In shock, you awake, no pain, no heat.
you stand before the mighty beast.
Seeing your self mirrored in his eyes,
your judgment complete, He speaks, "Return to the world man child,
Your journey is not yet complete, until you
pass through life without fear of my heat.
Then again, we shall meet
as the dragon's flame grows."

half life

living life through the fog of a half life
vague shapes muted sound visions of
day to day life
a love I long for to make my life whole
instead this half life neither here nor there
somewhere in between lies the love we share
like some lonely specter I reach out for the shining light that is you
but like a will o wisp your not there
try as I will I cant break through this dark cloud this half life spell
it clings and sticks to my soul like some spiders deadly web
struggling I fight with such might
gradually I weaken in half life's grip
I fall to my knees struggling to breath
your image before me across time and space
to little time to great a space
I search my soul for the key that will unlock the door
cutting ever deeper shall i cut away a little more
if I close my eyes and lay very still
I can almost hear your voice whispered in the darkness
and the faintest scent of perfumed hair delicately wafting on the air
a touch so gentle so hot on my skin
then I awake and try to hold on to the dream for a few seconds more
but the half life I live glazes my eyes over once more
faint echo's of I love you catch me holding my breath
trying to remember your touch
the smile on your face
trying to believe
that our love is true
so hard to see
so hard to be in half life
hell living with out you
