UNDEAD POETRY

 Your Nothing

I have spent

Many lonely nights

Adrift in rumpled sheets

Sweat pooling

On goose flesh

Lost in shadows

Of yesterday

Searching for an illusion

In a dream

Within a dream

Collecting beautiful lies

Like pretty flowers

Overcome

By visions

Of your nothing

Ghosts from the past

Haunting me still

What never existed

But in a trick of the mind

A delusion

They call love

The taste of your nothing

On my lips

Bittersweet

Ecstasy

Mouths hungering

Tongues

Touching briefly

As I gaze into your eyes

The majestic nothing

I saw

That I hold dear

To my heart

This very day

Nothing

The nights

We made love

Bodies so close

Entwined

Your full breasts heaving

As you held fast

To the headboard

Slamming against

The paper thin wall

Moaning

Screaming my name

Profanity

Our hips

Pounding together

Thrusting deep

As you arch your back

Mouth locked

In an orgasmic O

The nOthing

We felt

As our fingers entwined

And I came

My hands cradling

Your bosom

Pinching your erect nipples

As we collapsed together

In each other's arms

Your nothing

Was everything

To me at one time

The throbbing in my chest

Tears from my eyes

Sighs as we embraced

Freezing rain

Pouring down on our heads

The last time we met

The full moon

In the darkness

When Hope was black

All gone

Now

I look back

Seeing my reflection

In a mirror of shattered glass

For an instant

A monster meets my stare

With ivory white fangs

Crimson lips

Dripping with Merlot

Blood red wine

This carnival of Sin

All disappears

Daylight comes

Memories entombed

In a cemetery

Of fantasy

Nightmare

What could have beens

Hungry

Seething with desire

Lust

Stalking another victim

Prowling a dark forest

Past lives

Looking for you

My True Love

Us

Your nothing

Hidden amongst the trees

Our torrid trysts will always

Mean

Something

Carry me away

Somewhere

To your nothing

A sequestered room

Hidden

In the catacombs

Of

My

Heart

There

I will find you

Again

Sublime

Evanescent

We will dance

An erotic tango

Like days passed

Forevers

Mortgaged

That will never return

You

And I

My darling

Your everything

And

Your nothing

Swaying

To an erotic melody

Tale of phantoms

Beauties

Beasts

Exotic symphonies

The beat

Of conga drums

Our souls entwined

Holding each other

In our arms

Moving

Hand within hand

Step by step

To the rhythm

Until goodbye

Again

When the music stops

And

The Sun

Rises.
