Tomorrow
Held by the hands of time
And a pocket watch
That needs to be wound
#SlamWords #70thEdition - round 1
Her eyes tell a story
That she tries to hide.
A story of sadness
Of passion
Of paradise.
Behind her haunting
Beauty and seductive smile,
A lost little girl resides.
One seeking happiness
One seeking love.

Tonight I ponder the hands of time and sigh
So little of it spent by you
Why
Shaped by her
Given life by her
Soothed by her tears
And changed by her storms.
Mother nature,
Beautiful and kind.
I am hers
And she is mine.
#LetsWrite #SlamWords #70thEdition #encore - round 1 #GuestHost
Lost in her moonlit splendor,
I gaze at her
Filled with wonder.
Peace falls over me
And I feel untouchable
And alive.
For I am just a wayward
Creature,
And she is my beacon of
Hope.

And on this
Saturated ground,
I cried for my lover.
Crushed the rose petals
In my hand,
And let them go into the wind.
I didn’t say goodbye, though.
Because our love is still being
Written,
And the ink hasn’t dried yet.

His-Mother Nature Love
Her-Melancholy’s Kiss
Dense rooted thirst
Dark entrenched hearts
Together our hidden treehouse
Phantom branches braiding doubt
Dawning see you yawns
Dusking skylight yearns
Organic observatory

blue skies above
budding trees below
her mind finds ease
a way to flow~

i am the shyness
of predawn
& all the emptiness
of all the world is mine
lazing in an overwhelming
craving—
sunshine
#SlamWords #70thEdition rd2
do be careful
where you cast
your wishes
the gods
are known to be
quite vicious
& if you meet
even the sweetest
specter
be wary—
some seductive fruits
produce a deadly nectar
#SlamWords #70thEdition rd4
she hugs his mountain frame
heart & soul like stone walls
as her hungry fingers undeterred
up his chest like creeping ivy crawl
#SlamWords #70thEdition rd7
home is that hole
left in every hopeful heart
as we hold each other close
hollowed out
by the hands of time
#SlamWords #70thEdition rd1
call me a weed run rampant
aren't the most beautiful wraths
usually that~
#SlamWords #70thEdition 8 #myphoto
a familiar face flickers
in the ephemera of evening
& is gone
still cold enough to need a coat
i sit & sip on sighs
& watch the fairest petals fall
#SlamWords #70thEdition rd5
we stood under an opal sky
shimmering with unfettered light
the rainbows pretty but vicious
their poison beauty searing through us
leaving trails of pinks & red
before the flesh became flame
