Beyond...Beyond the sea of loneliness
And past forgotten shores
There is a realm of mystery
Though few can find its door

A world of dreams and wishes
Where cats fly in the sky
Puppies sail boats on rivers
With no one asking why?

Pilgrims travel silver paths
Their guide a plain white dove
Like ark's in search of land
These hearts just look for love

Here poets write with moonbeams
And paint what's in their heart
Never fearing brokenness
For hurt just plays a part

How sweet this place of wonder
Where rainbows serve as slides
And butterflies will lift you
To take that magic ride

And yet for all its splendor
There's something here I mi

The WarningYes, I remember love
And passions roaring flame
The thrill of that first kiss
Desires you cannot tame

I recall the fervor
Love's roller coaster ride
How your heart beats faster
When she stands at your side

So listen when I say
Love to me's no stranger
And this my friend I've learned
She comes with hidden danger

Behold the walking wreck
That holds a broken heart
I was a better man
Till love tore me apart

Her hateful bitter blade
Just stole my world away
Gave it to another
It did no good to pray

They say that time heals wounds
That's such a sinful lie
Her's are scars I'll carry
Until the day I die

So my friend walk wisel

LoveLOVE
Time froze in that moment
The Earth it ceased to spin
My world simply faded
I felt new life begin
Is the sun still shining?
Are birds still flying free?
Lost in this new wonder
Yours alone the light I see
Eyes that shine with starlight
And moonlight in your hair
Radiant this beauty
To you none can compare
Skin soft as rose petals
There's magic in your touch
Harps I swear are playing
Can one heart love so much?
Come to me my darling
Take this welcoming hand
Hold the soul I give thee
And in fiery love we'll stand
Share with me this moment
Ride on this wondrous flow
On love's mighty river
Such passion we will know
In my arms I'll take you
Deep our smoldering kiss
Body lost in worship
My love, I'll show you bliss...

My Constant LoverSo gentle is your touch
That tender first caress
Yearning in your fingertips
That leaves my soul undressed

Naked here before you
I have become your toy
Knelt in thrall before you
Defeated I give you joy

Your hands roam unrestricted
Your touch so deft and true
Making such sweet music
There is no move you rue

Fire bereft of passion
Intensity without pleasure
Weakness and surrender
The qualities you treasure

Mistress all demanding
You know that I am yours
There is no resisting
The fire in dreaded claws

So deep you rip and tear
Such damage you inflict
You laugh to see me crying
At the pain that makes me sick

Joints you cau

The FeatherThe world moved around me
And life just passed on by
No one spared a second glance
Or stopped to wonder why?
They saw so very little
They never looked within
As if the act of caring
Were a special type of sin
Perhaps this broken heart
Was never meant to heal
And that tide of loneliness
what I'm meant to feel
Sometimes though the burden
Well it just seemed all to much
And that final clasping hand
Perhaps a welcome touch
But then came my salvation
In the welcome land of sleep
A soft and gentle voice
That begged me not to weep
From the realm of heaven
A tender healing kiss
Tears that washed the pain away
Oh divine and loving bliss
Enfolded in an angels wings
I couldn't help but mend
Knowing on her love
I truly could depend
Was this just a dream?
A foolish flight of fancy?
A desperate hopeful longing
That echoes now so faintly?
Some I know would say
'by dreams you've been misled'
But they've not seen the feather
She left upon my bed...

Beyond The RainbowFar beyond the rainbow
Where time falls into space
Colors spin a melody
And all things find their place

Some hearts call it heaven
To others it's Avalon
For some it's just a dream
But there we all belong

Hurts shall be forgotten
And peace grace every heart
Beauty won't be hidden
And souls will fly with larks

Tears will mark the birth of joy
And death shall be no more
For in this land of wonder
Love like rain shall pour

For every broken heart
And every wounded soul
This the angels promise
"My lord will make you whole"

The Poets Birth...Snow is gently falling
I feel it's cold caress
My world disappearing
All by ice possessed

Passions embers dying
Love falling from the sky
Screaming out to heaven
The simple question, why?

Helplessly I'm watching
I know my heart must die
A thousand broken shards
No more to rise and fly

The sky is cold and black
The stars so far away
Beneath this long dead moon
My crying soul must stay

I begged the sun, 'don't go'
Yet from my sky she fled
Left me alone and dying
And not a word was said

Love thy blade bites deeply
There's crimson on the snow
And from this bleeding heart
The hurting words shall flow

Tears like rain are fa

A Poets TaleThunder rolls through heaven
And lightening falls like spears
Pain is heard in howling gales
Rain hides the flow of tears

This heart it softly rages
Howls against the loneliness
Yet wears a happy mask
To hide what it won't confess

Hurt in every lonely step
That cold and empty bed
Memories of better days
That echo in my head

Here the battered keyboard
That helps to keep me sane
Words that bleed with hurt
And yet the truth remains

Within this wounded heart
Love to give I've plenty
All around is beauty
Yet my world is empty

Thus the pilgrim poet
Found his haunting voice
The cost by world extracted
That did not give him cho

The Poets TaleEchoes roll like mist
Faint stirrings of my heart
How to share these feelings
Or change the things that part

Courage fled so long ago
Self confidence a lie
The hammer blows of life
Made hope curl up and die

And yet within your eyes
Can I truly see a seed
Healing in your bosom
And in the words you bleed

I write in cryptic verse
Revealed like finest wine
In every word and stanza
Your radiant beauty shines

Praying needful prayers
I tell my poets tale
The quest to paint your beauty
And how I ever fail

But more than that my love
I clip my feeble wings
Afraid to say I love you
For all that it might bring...

My RoseHow can I extol thee
Paint a perfect vision
Sing a golden sunbeam
Write what can't be written?

Soul of burning wonder
Angelic, perfect heart
Overwhelmed I struggle
To capture thee with art

How can words paint heaven
The beauty I perceive
The rising sun of love
Such words I cannot bleed

Unworthy this poor tongue
To ring with fulsome praise
To sing a truthful hymn
Would take me all my days

Daughter of creation
Sacred jewel of night
Within this lonely heart
Shines your radiant light

How to scribe such beauty?
One comparison I know
Thou my hearts desire
Art like a perfect Rose...

The Turning Page of TimeBeauty in a falling tear
Salty, tender token
Love it's sweet conception
Though in birth it's broken

The sun that once did shine
Declares the passing day
She takes the grace of light
And darkness holds it's sway

Clipped wings that once did soar
Bear not this bloodied heart
This pain not mine alone
We both did do our part

Yet love in its sad passing
So many blessings brought
Smiles and hurt together
Were not spent for naught

And dawn brings light anew
For each forgiving heart
Sweet healing and rebirth
As sad sea's simply part

So teary ocean passed
Behold the bright new day
Time a new chapter writes
What now will heaven s

Soft Tide of LoveThe moon shines in splendor
Against skies velvet blue
Night breeze softly stirring
Its caress with power endued

My will gently calls thee
Whispering dreams of love
My words in silver beams
Soft falling from above

Passion's river flowing
Fantasies stir and rise
Love's intoxication
Sails on sleep's soft tide

Let my heart possess you
Pray love take wings and fly
Lost in sweet sensations
Till dawn means dreams must die...

HellGathering darkness beckons
I watch my world close in
Sliding into private hell
For some forgotten sin

Come tidal wave of sadness
Wash every hope away
Drive me to the deepest depths
Then fight to make me stay

Unworthy, lost and lonely
Crush everything I am
Hold up that silvered mirror
For this unwanted man

Show me all my brokenness
The flaws I try to hide
Highlight every failure
Steal every trace of pride

Then leave me in the blackness
Without the will to fight
Helpless sniveling coward
So lost without a light

Crying tears of loneliness
In deep depressions maze
This iron grip far stronger
Than any man made cage

Reach ou

Stranger LandsI see it in your eyes
The bitter truth within
The light of love has gone
So shall the tears begin
The sun that sets and falls
Brings our own curtain down
Fire lost in timeless sea's
That brings a troubled frown
As the heavens darken
So falls the wounded dove
The heart that gave it's all
To know the joy of love
When the crying's over
And hurt has had it's day
I will always love you
Are the simple words I'll say
For this my heart has learned
Journeying through the years
Love, it knows no master
And wisdom's bought with tears
Let us not be bitter
At this our painful end
For all that we have shared
Let's call each other friend
And so I travel on
To dream in stranger lands
Never to forget you
Or the comfort of your hand
Think of me my darling
Travelling lonely roads
Maybe recall the love
That time shall not erode
And in the dreamy nights
Perchance you see my face
Smile in remembrance
At the echoes of loves grace

All In A Nights Work...In this hallowed cradle
I lay but do not sleep
Waiting for the sunlight
It's dying hour to greet

As the shadows lengthen
My thirst begins to rise
Eyelids slowing moving
I open blood red eyes

Fingers stretch and waken
Being dead is such a blast
Hunting in the moonlight
A sweet and pleasant task

Leaving this dark palace
I dance 'neath silver beams
Merging with the darkness
I listen for your dreams

When at last I find you
My pretty little prize
Haunting music calls you
I love how you comply!

From the blackest corner
I watch you in your bed
Turning dreams to nightmares
I play with your dear head

Slowly then I come to you

Are you there?They say that you are up there
Looking down from up above
But why just sit and watch me
When you could see I needed love

They say that you are up there
That you care for each little child
But I never really felt you
When by my dad I was defiled

They say that you are up there
That your love is wide and deep
Well I really didn't feel it
When I cried myself to sleep

They say that you are up there
And that I should honor mum and dad
Seems to me you ask a lot
When they treated me so bad

They say that you are up there
And that you see into all our hearts
So you know the hurt and pain and rage
Caused by so many flaming darts

Gentle eyesGentle eyes they look and see
The shining beauty of a star
Burning in the midnight sky
His light has traveled far

Gentle eyes they look and see
The light but not the star
His life is burning in the night
His heart wears a savage scar

Gentle eyes they look and see
And wonder at his flame
They don't see the burden
Carried by this lonely frame

Gentle eyes they look and see
His dying journey through the night
They cannot sense the anguish
Of his long and lonely flight....

Beautiful pure and white
Soft and sparkling blanket
Such a pretty sight

Snowflakes gently falling
Velvet black the sky
Night is never ending
The sun she bled and died

Snowflakes gently falling
Forming treacherous drifts
Weary and tired of walking
In this land of hellish gifts

Snowflakes gently falling
Death doesn't have to race
Heartbeat softly slowing
In this cold and frozen waste....

The exit doorBitter teardrops falling
Hope dying on the floor
Life empty and meaningless
Show me the exit door

Hope dying on the floor
Love an empty hollow shell
Like vaporous morning mist
Lonely living hell

Life empty and meaningless
Heart both prison and tomb
Each day another nightmare
Cursed from mothers womb

Show me the exit door
It's time to leave the stage
I really am too weary
To turn another page....

Alone......He sits in velvet darkness
A lonely figure on a throne
A cold and heartless monster
And yet he hates to be alone

He sits in velvet darkness
Life and death he can bestow
Yet love and peace elude him
And pain it is his shadow

He sits in velvet darkness
A lonely figure on a throne
Enduring life eternal
And cursed to be alone....

The corridors are empty
The rooms are cold and bare
Master of this haunted palace
There's no one here to care

He wanders through past memories
When life was rich and vibrant
Faces from a life he loved
Now lost and oh so distant

He stands beneath the moonlight
And looks upon a headstone

Where hope and love combine
Searching for a heart that's true
A girl who will be mine

I walk in a world of maybe
Full of long distance love
How I yearn to hold you
Can this ever be enough

I walk in a world of maybe
My heart just wants to soar
Say the words I need to hear
In these veins my blood does roar

I walk in a world of maybe
Confused and in a daze
Blinded by your beauty
I worship through the haze

I walk in a world of maybe
On wings of time and space
Searching for that one true heart
Who with love my life will lace

Where hopes and dreams are magic

The Impossible Task

by *Gary-thedreamingpoet, Jun 1, 2012, 3:06:52 AM
Literature / Poetry / Romantic / General / Traditional Fixed Forms

How to write a moonbeam
Or golden ray of light
Words to capture beauty
When heaven is in sight?

This poets quill may fail
Unfit for such a task
Though to paint such wonder
God's hand alone I'd ask

Mine eyes light upon thee
I struggle so to breathe
Lost in perfect rapture
Thy side I hate to leave

Child of Aphrodite
Radiant womanhood
Knowest that I love thee
And wouldst hold thee if I could?

Thou my heart hast stolen
I live for thee alone
Bound in these lonely chains
For love must I atone?

For one moment with thee
I would surrender all
To steal a heavenly kiss
And then on sword to fall...

I am seriously blown away by how good this is... if you ever gave this to a girl she would fall over dead with happiness. And then love you forever and ever and ever. Seriously.. well done!

*Gary-thedreamingpoet Jun 23, 2012 Professional Writer

If only love were that simple or that easy. Despite my poetry I'm still lonely...
Anyway,thank you for your kind words beautiful heart

~HappyHoshi Jun 23, 2012

Haha Yes, if only it were that easy. But honestly, in some cases it can be quite that easy!

Says me.
You're very welcome. ^_^

*Gary-thedreamingpoet Jun 26, 2012 Professional Writer

That's because you are a beautiful young lady and i'm an old wreck!

~HappyHoshi Jun 26, 2012

Awe... thank you so much. Thats so very kind of you. And even if you are and old wreck as you say, its because of what life did to you.. (I read your deviantID..)But despite everything you have a beautiful kind soul, and from what I can observe you have so much love to give. And you have an amazing talent too. (= <3 So don't bash yourself too much ok?

*Gary-thedreamingpoet Jun 28, 2012 Professional Writer

okay, thank you my dear friend

~HappyHoshi Jun 28, 2012

You're quite welcome. All my words were sincere.

~Katori-93 Jun 18, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Oh and if you publish something I want to know as well!!!!

*Gary-thedreamingpoet Jun 19, 2012 Professional Writer

I don't know about being published, but who knows what the future may hold?

~Katori-93 Jun 19, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Any publisher would be lucky to have your work to publish<3 But if we're lucky we will both get published some day~~ :----)
