I was there
dressed in black
inside & out
dancing on edges
holding your hands

you were so hansome
your smile tucked neatly
between smirk & sincere
eyes carefully detailing
my movements
drinking night wine

We paint the skies psychodelic
catching a high on the effects
until heavy lids force hallucinations
into hibernation

I dreamed you
lips set on devour
until the inferno
forced my awakening
you lie here, oblivious
lost in reveries
while I broil in conflict
acutely aware of subtle changes

Light falls like an sharpened ax
separating your night from my day
you see comraderie ending
I see a pyramid of disaster
on the horizon

I've shed darkness,
the color of lovers
& picked up a torture stake
embracing light
I can only hope that the memory
of your smile tucked neatly
between a smirk & sincerity
as you sip night wine will fade
with this longing...

Welcome, Willow, To PiP and the "dark" Forum.

You have a nice pen, I enjoyed.
I think You'll like it here.

"I can only hope that the memory
of your smile tucked neatly
between a smirk & sincerity
as you sip night wine will fade
with this longing..."

Good stuff, this.

I especially like:

"I dreamed you
lips set on devour
until the inferno
forced my awakening"

It's frightening how desires can blind us to the "obvious"... Anyway, I loved the poem- very dark, very sexy.
