Love : No More Falling

No more falling

The time for falling is long since past

The look for love, just a mirage?

Gazing out into the light

It’s you I see, no shadow

So walk with me along the track

Towards the end where we will be

Together looking forwards and not back

Happy in entwined arms you and me

Life : Perfection

Perfection I Am

Tiptoes stretching to my star

My body taught, like bowstring long

Eyes closed, sunshine from afar

Silence broken only by Angel’s song

Warmth a plenty upon my face

I take my breath before my leap

Into your heart, I am your grace

The treasure I am, for you to reap ©

Sherlock

(Inspired by Jack Vettriano; Heartbreak Hotel  ©)

Door locked shut, town-sounds shut out

He slumps in leather, the time approaches

Vial in case, syringe to shout

The day is done, no clattering coaches.

Tiredness drifts onwards, the strings are taught

Chemicals to take him out to sea

Dragging bow, will he be caught?

                                 Will they believe he’s really me?

Life : The Simplest Things

The Simplest things

Seem so hard to say

Because life really is not clear

I guess were not actually made that way

We so easily screw up those we hold dear.

Not for wanting to say it so

But just because it hurts that much

To bare your heart, so they will know

What its like, to have had someone else’s touch.

Lust : Just Red

Just Red

Before me red in basque and silk

Touching,taunting, girl of the night

For money not love you dress to kill

Till dawn light peeks thro curtains not right

Lipstick perfect, now and again

You dress in silence, covering red

So wanted wanton, no refrain

Giving not refraining, never back to bed

Love : Hiding Places

 Hiding places

You let me inside, so near

That I could not help myself be

Drawn into your hiding place, no fear

Of anything, like endless sky, you had the key

To a corner to ask, that reason why

You needed me there, alone with you

Inside that place, you once did cry

But now no more, that corner is through

Love : Searching

Searching

Quietly watching rain on wood

Sharing tomorrow for what it would

Feeling lost, the world so fine

It takes one voice to make it sure

No longer safe it feels so charged

With danger ever present not so far

Incessant never stopping, like wave on shore

Unsure I can feel you any more

Heroine charge, emotion high

Like wings of life, they scour the sky

Circling never falling, watching sound

I am the one that they have found

Looking for love for all its worth

Does that not forsake love on this earth?

To hold as mine with all its pain

I search outside I feel the rain,

Upon my face drips long and cool

No longer feeling life long fool

To believe in you my darling love

You are what I crave, what makes me move. ©
