"The Shadow of the Day"

 THE SHADOW OF THE DAY

 In the shadow of the day

 You lie on the carpet

 Of my room

 Where I once lay

 In peace and solitude

 Spread out full in blossom

 To feel the warmth

 In spirit

 That I lay beneath you

 In the shadow of the day

 A silken body

 Naked in soul

 A free a spirit

 I long to behold

 I touch you once

 Lips so hot with life

 I touch you twice

 Your eyes as cold as ice

 To tease me with

 The thoughts you hold so close

 Hold me close

 Follow your voice

 Now you lie in a room so bare

 Close your eyes

 You still see me there

 Perched upon the bottom stair

 I laugh, you cry

 Touch of sex in my eyes

 I laugh, you cry

 Here we are always alive

 Here you feel no need

 For goodbyes

 Together we lie

"The Rain"

THE RAIN


The rain is cold
It chills my skin
As it rolls down my arm
Down my hand
Down my finger
Pools with the mass
Now surrounding my hand

The rain is cold
Though I do not move
I do not shelter myself from it's
Empty, lonely grasp

The rain is cold
It clings to my body
Holds me to itself
Traps us in its
Ever growing intimacy
So tender its touch
So icy its hold on me

The rain is cold
In solitude we sit
Peaceful despair
We now share

The rain is cold
It chills my soul
Dilutes my resolve
My colours bleed
I become unseen
Washed away
With the day
