she dressed, then wept as
the music faded away
it was painful to
remember the night he left
her at the altar
The thirst
he drank the last drop
then plummeted into the sea
he was still thirsty
some thirsts are like that only
the more you get more you want
In the stars
it’s all in the stars
holding her gaze briefly from
across the room, he
knew – she was the one he had
been waiting for all his life
Dark desires
heavenly creatures
featured boldly in her dreams
demons stayed hidden
how she wished for a dark knight
to rescue her dark desires
Dilemmas
A blanket, soft and
warm, with the faintest hint of
her perfume; torn me –
the warmth makes me want to sleep
fragrance says not without her
A mirror image
a mirror image
of who he once was looks back
occasionally
he curses under his breath
what an emotional fool
Magically musical
these eyes of yours are
magically musical
I hear violins
when you flutter them at me
guitars chip in when you smile
The moon is still dark
the moon is still dark
it waits for you to enter
my life like a sun
give me endless glow of your
tender love, care, affection
the moon is still dark
it waits for you to enter
my life like a breeze
drive away the clouds that mark
my brow – insecurities
the moon is still dark
it waits for you to enter
my life like a man
claim what is rightfully yours
part my hair and see full moon

Tethered triumphs
in an ornate dam
she tries to tame a cascade
her hair tied in clutch
tethered triumphs sit smugly
head and shoulders above rest
