The Starting Tale

Hear me out

This story starts long, long ago
When men roamed the earth on foot
Crossed seas with boats made of wood
Prayed to their gods for strong crops

A woman, lively and fair,
Combing her hair absently,
Into the courtyard lightly
Stepped without a thought or care

Wanton eyes her beauty spied
Dreadful blight inside this mind
No other maid could he find
Nor a more lush, ethereal bride

Hear my tale

Obsession spurs his action
He delights her with magic
Showing her card tricks, tragic
Plying her simple senses

Naive, sweet--a finer man
She had yet to ever meet
She bows, takes his hand to greet
Unrolls the glove on her hand

Kissing her pale skin, he smiles
Leads her dreamy, dazed, astray
Away from prying eyes, betrays
His guile succeeds;
Her throat bleeds

Hear her die

This is going to be part of the poems for my "Damned for Eternity" vampire novella, which I should put onto the site tomorrow for the first 2 chapters finally finally. I didn't want to post the comment before the poem as, if I did, the poem's ending would be guessed pretty easily. I think after all that joy from my prior poem today (the "Bask in Your Light" one), I felt a need to slip back into the deepest recesses to make up for it ;)

To Be Loved

I wish that I could be loved To hold the hand of God That stars shining above Could ignite a lightning rod Many years and days alone I walked and prayed for you I no longer know my home I have searched to find your truth I sat by you on this shore Upon rocks in the sand Waiting to be adored Yet, refusing to take your hand I hear these waves crash and die Short lifespans savage, then gone I feel so still inside Always a bit withdrawn I wish that I could be loved To believe, to be with you To touch and to be touched As each night and day renew

Human Angels

"Life is difficult!" I cry out tonight, So an angel from heaven Is sent to be by my side. He swoops down on mighty wings Amidst tumultuous skies. Black forces, pent up and waiting, Strike him down as he flies. In my dream, I see him. I open up my eyes. An angel stands there bleeding, Injured and dying. "Yes, life is difficult," The angel lets me know. "You are stronger than me: You have a human soul." "You can repair my wounds; You can restore my life; You can keep me safe Until I'm well and right." The way to keep an angel safe Is to close your eyes and dream, So I lay back to sleep While he rests right next to me. In my dream, I watch over him Rather than him watching over me. I touch his hand and feel his pain. I see visions of him as a man. "You are in love with this man. He's a reflection of my light. Someday, you'll be together, But not in this lifetime." As I heal the angel, I ...
