Open Link Night ~ Week 19 « dVerse
Come check some kewl writes
Realisation dawns in the dark
Kiss away all possible hopes
Dreams that will rest on a silken thread
Hanging tenuous as life itself as it spins in the breeze
And of life the great unknown
Less remains from yesterday than the day before
Piss it away on the voices that murmur
Nothing matters anymore...nothing
This is the hour of my release
Tattoo goodbye on the promise Ive forgiven
Without a memory I can forget
Scar’s don't live forever with me gone
No more to justify shadows crossing the places that show remorse
I hold a hand out to cross my palm stained in another’s
Stained in the sins of a lifetime
Cleansed in the hopes we all live forever..... don't fucken kid yourself we don't
Time moves slowly in the last
I held dreams and wishes to have them melt away
As do the imaginings of other paths unchosen
Well its too late now, better to accept the realisation of the dark
Elegantly kinked
Checkered walls
Checkered floors
Into the looking glass
Checkered past
Pop another pill
Under sufferance
Standing tall
In another lifetime
Not this one
At another time
Let me show you the taste
Serve to you in a swill
Unsupported decadence forgotten in thoughts
Lips unlike mine pucker and kiss what first approaches
Death soon follows on a plate of sweet marshmallows
Legs that bend soon become hallow
A voice was heard
Whispered in shallow murmuring
Do you even remember the day
When the sky washed ashore
Arise from the soil as I breathe tarnished air
And sip a checkered board played as the kings do
one hand
one heart
that I touch
for one more night
I’ll serenade you in a dream
From the bar room in heavens waiting room
While St Peter serves me another tequila n lime
And the angels play pool with the demons
While Jimi screams out Voodoo Child from the stage
I strike up another doobie
And vanish in the smoke haze
Wishing it was all it could be
one hand
one heart
that I touch
for one more night
Dull my senses from the jar I keep in the corner
Sealed in secrets of the darkest nevermore
Lest they spill and sully along the checkered floor
Come share a smoke with me on the outside
Keeps you from getting into my inside
Littered down the rabbit hole
Hit with the sharp end of a mighty big stick
Here wear this hat
Let it slip to your shoulders
Look theres another day
What is this in this cigarette?
As the weasel plays a mean blues harp
And the goldfish wink at me while holding a full house
Nor do the bounce when left to swim in the slipstream
Pat the black dog before he barks and moves me from here
Living in the reality of another mistake
Licked and grooved in the summers of mornings before
I kiss the whore and taste the sum of all her treats
And wake to hear the Red Hot Chilli Peppers golden beats
Softly I surrender
As I bow to the breeze
Silver tendrils nuzzle my skin
I can feel your warmth in soothing grace
Emotions let in and bathe me in tender
Rest on a finger before you depart
I feel to myself
A kiss to the butterflies wing
In the time of serenity
Between the sun and luna
Shimmers of red and gold
Sweep the sky on the turn
Elongating shadows
Caress the place where we lay
Entwined in the thoughts
A hand held in another’s
While dreams dance elsewhere
Trust is exchanged
On the beat of a heart
While diamonds glimmer in the night
A rose rests in each place
All that is left
Is a name
Not a face
If Im quiet I can hear it
Rest in the cup of my hands
Eyelids droop
Pretty as the butterflies play
Listless on a summers day
Drink in the aqua blue
Serenade me on your fingertips
Pirouetting are the fairies
Glistening wings shimmer in the heat
Silver puffs blow away the gray
Its her I hear you say
Eyes adjust focus from the blur of sleep
White dressed in shadows
Fogged in textures
Held just out of reach
Perfumed in breath
Of lavender and heath
Trill of the song
Masks the footfall
Hummingbirds whistle along
My eyes follow the disturbance in air
Refracted in a memory
Wishing you where really there
Living less satiated
Than the beginning of this day
Lulled back into sleep
I wake in the knowing
A dream is but a memory
