A little night poetry....

Ok, so being in Philly has been interesting thus far...and I have stumbled upon a few different kinds of muse. Mostly people because that's how I roll.
And because of the situation I have developed a very rich fantasy life out of the constant loneliness and intermittent despair I feel daily. So I decided to post some of the writings I have come up with since bing out here. Most are in essence love poetry or loved inspired poetry, rather.
All are works in progress. (And the rights to them are my own.)

So here goes....

No Return

The poltergeist haunts me

In my dreams she is you,

Beckoning me into the dark abyss

Destroying my only truth.

What price will I pay

For a lust so full of pride?

When in my heart I know

It’s his trust I’ve thrown aside.

Laying here before me

The temptation much too great.

Can I resist the incubus

With all that is at stake?

How long will I be lost in rapture?

Long enough to earn reproof?

If this trance lasts much longer

Will the point be moot?

Now you’re taking over me

Too late to turn back now.

Losing my grip on everything

And defiling my sacred vow.

Feeling the fire within me,

A bittersweet and lonely burn.

When the ecstasy is over

There will be nowhere left to turn.
