Graveyard Coffeehouse

Castles In The Dark

---

You were my darkness
And
My moon
My refuge
From the storm
Looming high
On a mountain top
You were waiting
Even as the clouds raged
Rain
Falling down
Like frigid arrows
Lost
Looking for warmth
A place
To call home
You
Threw yourself
On my mercy
Finding love
For an evanescent moment
In the black
Flashes of lightning
Claps of thunder
Shattering
Sweet serenity
Making love
Amidst
Rose petals
Stains
From
Imbibing crimson wine
Wicked fantasies
Candles flickering
Illuminating
Ghastly shadows
Moans
Cries
Orgasmic ecstasy
Tasting
Your trembling thighs
Terror
As
Beads of sweat
Formed
Salty rivers of fear
On your skin
My tongue
Tasting forbidden
Paths
Taboo sanctuaries
Suckling
Full breasts
Kissing passionately
Serpentine
Building castles
As the night
Wore on
Skin on skin
Electric
Every time
Our bodies touched
Dancing
Maniacally
Until
Morning
And
Silence
Awakening
With a monster
A fiend
I created
That will not leave
Defending
Gothic battlements
Even
Until absurdity
Waiting
Until the dying day
Which will
Never come
Damned like me
Tasting
Recurring dreams
Draining nightmares
Beckoning the corpse
Of true love
With
Satanic Incantations
Arise
Awake
Sleeping
During the day
Emerging at dusk
An abandoned church
WithIn
A haunted cemetery
Undead
Amongst
Words on a page
That will
Never grow old
Never die
Forever remaining
Buried six feet deep
In
Dark poetry
Euphoric
Memories
Of her eyes
Lips meeting lips
In a succulent kiss
Phantasms
Crying out
Within the dark forest
That is my love
Like
Erotic symphonies
That
Play on
Forever
Entombed
Within
Castles
In the Dark.
