Willfully silent and opaquely beautiful Like a love affair that fades wordlessly, A two-act word play just hinted at. A fateful page the reader doesn’t want to turn —Lest it blankly shine, so devoid of meaning— A blurry sentence smudged on the mirror —If only they could read it out— Drafts left behind while I was still in transit, Silent tunes I hum to myself, Unwritten plays I, by heart, remember, —And will not dare […]

By Secret Bree and Vintage Black With a piercing stare and unquenchable appetite— I’m one of the wild ones captivating and fierce Slowly ever so vigilantly you approach trying to embrace me with velvet sounds —Casting that wicked magic of a wild cat whisperer— Yet I’m not falling prey to your taming charms Inevitably you’ll fall in lust Everything else turning to dust against my sensual verses Sweaty, playful- breathing, […]
Devil player faded charm mindless trickster she dared fight, One fair combat— all she wanted yet, the truth is, he, d e c l i n e d Biding adieu to his wonders such a let down ice rock heart She kept weaving her wild verses while she smoked, she […]
