souls of unleashed fury roam
in the shadows of discontent
with their harrowing screams
against the bondage that keeps them there.
Sunrise breaks the spells of midnight
forcing its demons to retreat
back to whence they came
releasing the souls to silent sleep,
to rest in their slumber
before the midnight traces fall again.

When your ruby red lips
it’s like tasting a very fine wineand ignites the flames of passion.Raising that kiss of firethat arouses passions deep.That kiss of firethat devours our soul.That kiss of firethat makes us whole.That kiss of firethat warms the coldest night.That kiss of firethat ignites our loves light.That kiss of fire.21 February 2009
