No time, not a moment just a chance to embrace
No fear, no doubt of one's self
only a step towards an allusive face
time to dust that book off on the shelf
turning the page starting a new chapter
a prelude to a laugh or a smile
seeking love or whatever your after
a whisper, an echo travels for miles
like a butterfly caught in a gale wind
her somber and solo flight finally ends
time to be reborn, cocooned by passion
a phoenix of colors rises from the ashes
burning bright for all to see from the heavens above
sun to shine, a reason to sizzle
sought out by many, but only one for true love
A second chance in a lifetime, reasons to bedazzle
Vivid colors, a kaleidoscope enveloping her wings
As her flight crescendos to its cumulative peak
Escalading her path, her malevolent pace sings
A beckoning call for suitors to seek
Courted by a marshalling of fate
Designing by a webbed intricacy to complex to follow
Trapped by her evil ways, venom to the taste
Mortal victims entwined in her net, forced to swallow
Imbibing a potion to sweet to be enjoyed
Doomed to parish by the means of a lustful death
Her colors have changed to black, her arts of torture employed
Her follower heart stops, suckling down to the last breathe
Such a beautiful sight his stone gaze held
This striking mortal transformed in front of his eyes
Into a fanged beast for whom he somehow fell
Doomed to eternal life beyond the gates of hell
Foolish pride and a blind minds eye
Shall lead to death of her down deep inside
Living her pathetic life, no love, just waiting to die
So cold, so black, nothing real, nothing but lies

ooohhh...

Very good, the ebb and flow of words lend much credance to your writing................... a sort of sonnet-esque.

Yea, this is one of my better work's. This was about my ex and how I seen her in the beginning of our relationship. She was coming out a 16 year marriage ready to give love a shot again. We lasted about 14 month's and it sort of the way thing's started and the way thing's ended. I think I wrote it in like 2 setting's the light side to transition to the darkside. This was like two nights of 4 a.m. drunkenness. took me about 1:30 minutes to write it in toll.

Early mornings seems to be the best time to write, I think it is the mind-set that the phone may not ring or someone knocking at the door that sets the stage.............One of peace and quite,words flow when a person knows they will not be disturbed.

this part got me.... held, unable to move, captured...been there
