[hometext] => The night weeps for your presence…
[bodytext] => A single moon drop on withered parchment Pen flaccid in my hand like a stubborn child Images shed their panty hose with a slut's daintiness Yet fugitive words are lodged in some deep, vengeful crevice... I hear the mocking like a meteor's demise Resounding in this supernova solitude Of thick-shadowed night- Of mourning rooms gossamer with web-covered memories... Sorrow smiles with jagged teeth in my eyes Ripping the gates wide like a buried sob As I drown in the foam of your laughter The oblivion of your kiss... My head is filled with splintered nostalgia. Ceaseless throbbing of a savage vein, I touch it with sulfuric fingertips And a wave of pestilent yearning fills my soul, A corroding despair to conquer the horizon that yawns between us... ((I remember...)) The scent of you (all linen and fresh juniper) Stained on my shivering, starfish hands, Still sighing with your voice of midnight flowers From when they last whispered to your angel skin... ((I remember...)) The butterfly dreams woven from your eyelashes Giggling like star-crossed children on my cheek... Your mouth fluttering along the atlas of my body like a timid spider, Soundless 'I love yous' hiding in long, tender kisses... Your arms draped around me like a reason for living... ((I remember...)) The sweet madness of your lips Moist petals drinking from my willing mouth with infinite thirst, Intoxicating tongue dancing lazily with mine... And always- The perfect destruction of your sapphire gaze, As you undressed me with tremulous affection Feeling you pulsing in my veins like God in a river... ~.~ Melancholy sleeps in my heart with no intention of waking I sit like a moss-covered epitaph in the mortal light Of a destitute candle, The abyssal agony of your absence devouring What mere crumbs of sanity I do not possess...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
