Pleased to eat you (old)

One late afternoon on a warm summers day as I enter my room on the bed there she lay, covered in pedals of roses I’d add, and the lights were as dim as the hue was too sad, but the night was still young and she started to greet, please do come in, stay awhile, take a seat, still I sensed a danger, one thing was awry, it was a full moon but no stars in the sky, I turned and looked down and she remained on the bed, I let down my guard and stood by her instead, she knelt down before me and was sobbing a storm, when I asked her what’s wrong she said it was mourn, for her late husband who with the benefit of the doubt was killed on this day three years ago, about, I said it’s okay, I’ll be here for you, then she stood up, she said that won’t do, you see I’m not the person you think, I’m not just a woman and before I  could blink, the lights all went out and I was no longer secure, for she whispered to me in a soft feline purr, I’m human by day but by night I am feared, my husband was first, pleased to eat you, my dear.

FORESTS OF PEACE



I love the wind
I sway and soar
I am safely locked with the ground
While the gusts persist
The leaves insist
That now they are no longer bound
They distance themselves
Like precious sea shells
All scattered and thrown all around
They are the trees
Waving their branches
The forest, it dances
And all that they know
Are the echoed romances
The carvings of lovers
Drawn into their covers
And even though
They can’t get another
They still continue to sway
And to soar
The leaves of the spring
Are too hard to ignore
They’re the trees
Oh, the decades they’ve seen
They’re the trees
Oh, how peaceful they seem
They’re the trees
All enduring the breeze
They, are the trees…

LIVE AND LET GO

There were few
Chained to fate, trailing by their past
And who knew
You could’ve shattered, just like a glass
Among them all, you were glorified
Among them all, you were sanctified
Foundation, never crumbled
Timbers that never tumbled
No need to reach for the stars
They’re already yours
No need to jump to far
You’re already there
Strength, courage
Ambition, driven
Fly like an eagle
Soar to the moon
Reign upon the rain
Like a monsoon
Courage, driven
Towering
Strength, ambition
Flowering
Commence the cause, Embrace the echoes
Behold the purest, live and let go…
