Poetry By Candlelight

It is not PI, for me, without the old poetry thread. So here goes....

Existence is in context,
Just words upon the wind.
A figure in the clouds,
Remnants of how I sinned.

Never felt your breath,
Had your touch upon my flesh.
The world is full of nevers,
All the rest, I shall repress.

You have always been a great master of poetry.

Thank you, babe. I'm sure you know who this one's about. My last hurrah on him. Next I will focus on more relevant and less futile subject matter. x

As darkness now looms, like light, unforgiving.
The autumn returns, to the life of the living.
Tumbling leaves, like moments in time,
Float endlessly down, reality's mime.
The temperature settles, emotions are balanced,
Fine pleasures are sought, from a bottomless chalice.
Life is for living, a hammer and nail,
The moment we think, is the moment we fail.

Thank you. You should take it back up when your next Muse strikes!

roses are red... violets actually sometimes aren't really blue at all. The name even implies it. This is a poetic injustice.

Or a play on words... Hmmm.

yes love is color blind.

Haha! Just like me! Woo hoo.

I'd hope not. Love is a very beautiful thing but it also has a torturous hidden back stabbing side...

A great start, CK!! Thanks for sharing! I love them

I'll have to post some oldies of mine soon.

Thanks Linayus!

Liquid

Pleasure unbelievable,
the oh so transparent pain,
the unequivocal forgotten gain,
Deluge of emotions battered,
In this days overpowering rain
My somewhat soul tattered,
To memories destroyed forgotten,
all needs left tainted,
Unsated

My goodness, your writing got even better, if that's possible. Good work, locust.

High praise indeed thank you....

An element of rebirth to that one or of a spirit reborn...(or at least its my interpretation).nicely done..

Thank you, locust.

Stationary

In perfect poise
Of tilt an arch
That stretch of length
With raising lift
An bended limb
Defying gravity's balance
In marble serenity ....

Very succinct. Reminds me of Richard's statue; Spirit.

Eternally weaved,
through blankets of time.

A thirsting, so rampant,
of friendship, divine.

A brilliance of unity,
pleasure complete.

Untangled and simple,
a natural feat.

Belonging, like colours
shall meet in the sky.

Like breathing and blinking
or life, when we die.

The struggle imposed,
on a day incomplete.

To see in the darkness,
taste bitter through sweet.

Lovely flow and rhythm

I loved the rhythm also. Lovely pieces by everybody so far.

Angelic shine in devil eyes,
Windblown tresses,
An superficial smiles,
Enticing blatant temptation,
Causing a need for immediate redemption,
An escape needed from fables and lies.....
