Hello,

remember me
haunting memory of loss
people won’t let you forget
those pointless questions
hoping only to drain
& #rebirth the pain

remember me
I infect your dreams
night after night, they weave
pointless dolor, deceive
this ache they bring
but not for them

#vss365

Feel the misery
like monsoonal rain
soaking your weary bones
w/o delay
cry if you must
in your dismay
no one will see
no one cares, in kind
blood is #wine
I eat #cake of dreams
gnawed away
you’re never free
In the pit
you will see
penance is
as it seems

#2wordprompt

Vedma…
my demoness
inspired blackened angel
#dragon tattoo upon your leg
beneath the cross
hexes rain
from ivory clouds
as blood pours down
from opal eyes
to your flesh I pledge
a willing soul
forever we roam
the red forest
fatally free
fabled vedma
how I love thee

#vss365

#moon hangs
in the bleak darkness
tho she shines
in a glimmering sea
specks of light halo her
but dwarfed in her beauty

unlike me …

I hang
in the bleak darkness
tho I am dull
masked by dust
floating in fingerlings
of lost rays of sun
in this drifting ship’s hull

#VssGhostShip

Tenderness slips
from downy lips
& warmth invites
in caring arms
in her world
away from harm
I do sleep
like #clockwork
beneath a canopy
of dreams
starlit eyes
of ember galaxies
calms the rage
of turbulent seas
forever my demoness
of beloved darkness

#vss365

the #petrichor as she walks by
lingers with me, as the night is long
her voice is like a love song
sweet enough to make angels cry
as I stand with her in the rain
I feel solace & can release my pain
I will be forever lost in her ember eyes

#macabrewords

Hush comes
the culling of light
it capers with the dark
as threaded sunshine
falls to the blight
waking candle
& sleeping crepuscular
is now the dead of night
sing the hour of utter still
#serendipity ‘s fright
swallows the glimmering hope
as the woken
lose their sight

#vss365

She comes
Death’s apprentice
coy & delightful
as those b4
#anaxiphillia
upon the chessboard
as you can see
there are many
#harageous harbingers
they flock
not for love
but for the #petrichor
of my screaming misery

#macabrewords

Fingers caught a thing … the other day 😁

Take a walk with me
along side ormōdnes
as anguisse nibbles
at your heels
the dark Gods chuckle
among the fallen wings
misfortune your soul
as bitterness toys with hope
never to wake
& to forevermore walk
in the shadow of joy
toss a #coin
in the River Styx

#vss365

Crystal moon
aquamarine blues
#marvelous shimmer
in the radiant sky
brighten the day
as sunset cries
lunar pools
wanting lust
beneath her canopy
turn to dust
quiet now
death comes
to collect her souls
of 40-sum
my heart beats still
at the bottom of the sea
lifeless will

#vss365

She dances on clouds
whispers her love
in my deepest of dreams
I wake to her glow
cradled in the arms I know
the ebony moon sings
as the flames of hades
tickles the unknown
we walk the midnight highway
w/each other in tow
our #deal w/the devil
threads of darkness we sew

#vss365

Thank you!!

amour is not
just an emotion
or a feeling
the affection for one
a #mirror
of one’s self
it is life
sheer essence
of humanity
canged by one
the druery of being
it is she
the dark runes
inked on delicate skin
sigils of life
it is vedma of hexes
threaded darkness
untethered

#vss365

Mutiny upon
the anointed cross
#folklore is sacred
the pyre of charity
burns the virgin flesh
& the savor of chastity
lay on dried moss
hope slithers
the serpent’s tongue
yfel is resurrected
peace is a loss
sleep the pious
on ivory beds
coup d’état burn
the ȝecoren cross

#vss365

Medusa of the sea
Siren’s call you see
treasures it will be
come to the depths, join me

I came to her call
you what I mean
bottomless you fall
eyes of brush
body of gold

One #direction you will go
beneath her cowl Heaven flows
under her gown, death you will know

#VssGhostShip

Sink your teeth into me
throbbing vein cries
to be drained, see
vampi of fire
witch’s legacy spits
on the frightened pyre
she of sigils
tainted skin is lit
make my soul #crawl
to the broken spires
this ethos drowns
in the sea Hel stole

#vss365

Subtle witch
upon the velvet snow
eyes aglow
inviting saunter, I know
the warmth of heart
heat set apart
divine fruit
bare moment lost
no #manipulation
not even on a dare
pure Elysian Fields wait
as I part her gate
she is the Angel’s wings
from which my heart sings

#vss365

do not hold that thought
allow your heart to sing
for what it sought
a love of ages
vacant stages
alone just you & I
not for us to wonder why
my vedma - dream
#locked forevermore
between lucid seams
of darkness & daylight
& love’s extremes

#vss365

#Unrepentant fallen angelus
her intent of sin, isn’t sus
blackened anima living ādl
spits hexes #arenose heart
drains of time black-mass starts
psalms come in torrent scræmen
a #harangue hell descends
heofon & earth will part
Nav breaths the final sacrament
