I look across the ocean in the middle of the night...

One of my dabbles with rhyme...I dont' do it often, but sometimes I think its fun. I think I just wrote this one because I wanted to write something...enjoy!


I look across the ocean in the middle of the night
Hoping this time I will capture just one glimpse, just one sight
Of Aglaia’s shining hair simply blowing in the wind,
Or Euphrosyne’s smile beyond what I can comprehend.

Maybe Thalia will come and grace me with her beauty,
Then the Graces will sing and dance and then return with me
To the mountain towering above the clouds that brought rain
The day you disappeared and filled this world of mine with pain.

Though these goddesses are splendorous, their beauty divine,
What I see when you look in my eyes easily outshines
These three, plus Aphrodite in all their glory and fame.
My heart fails me with no more than the mention of your name.

Sitting silent...

I don't know any background for this one...but yeah! Enjoy!


Sitting silent
Your touch on my lips
Your taste draws me in
Lost in your elegance
Swimming in this voracity
I cannot leave
This must not stop
Twirl in my grasp
Dance through the air
Move toward my lips
Inveigle my mouth
Close my eyes
Lose myself in this embrace
I am yours
As you are mine
Take a deep breath
Now hold it
Hoping this sensation
Can last forever
Let it cycle again
And again
As I hold you

Oh Daphne
You flee so soon

I see the trees...

I don't recall why I wrote this one...but apparently I was feeling a bit dark...enjoy!


I see the trees
Chanting and dancing
In the wind,
While helpless flowers
Are stripped naked, and tossed
By the same spell.
I stand still.
My ears catch the cries
Of the cliffs
As the ocean beats them,
Dragging boulders
And corpses of trees
Into it’s undulating cadence.
But still I stand here.
The birds circle
A small expanse of the sky
And land to eat my rotting flesh.
The dogs tear muscle from bone
And feed it to their young.
I watch,
Simply standing,
As I realize I belong here
Only to fade away.

What are a few more words...

This one, I think, depicts extremely well my growth and development. I most definitely realized my shortcomings before I wrote this...I really like it. You will be able to see what I once was...


What are a few more words,
A few more painted phrases,
Another empty shell
Saying nothing
About your something.
Was it your eyes that lit the world,
Or your smile?
I can’t even remember now.
I can say the things
You want to hear,
But what does it all really mean
If I write just to flatter
And speak just to make you swoon.
These heartfelt words
Sprout from deep
Within my fingertips
And no less deep than that.
You have consumed my lusts,
As my heart lies dead
And longing.
I love you
To the fullest depths
Of my eyes,
And in a way words
Cannot express…
I’ll just let my lips do the talking.
So why try to steal your heart
When what I want
Is much easier to reach.
