Lonely Nights


These lonely nights are here again
the shadows of my memories
hiding in my head


The behemouth of our parting
was loudly proclaiming victory


Once the night was jade
A jewel of misty beginnings
Now the night had become so lonely


Once we sat under a fiery sky
anticipating one anothers love
You were a chimera flying low


You were a she-devil of delight
only here to spawn


In the lonely night you'd come
our kisses were a transformation
amidst the starry light
The end was near
Our love making ended


These lonely nights are here again
shadows of our memories
hiding in my head

Wonderful mood and expression here, Dale. Your images are so tactile: particularly love "Once the night was jade / A jewel of misty beginnings" and "Once we sat under a fiery sky / anticipating one anothers love / You were a chimera flying low"... just how love talks, deeply personal and yet attributing exquisite richness of universal proportions to the subject of our thoughts and feelings. Another stirring write, thank you. Kate xx

Dale Another great poem, I did notice you changed the ending from what you originally had it for the word challenge. It's still fantastic though, great use of the word list!

Hugssssssss

"...once the night was jade...A jewel of misty beginnings..." How beautiful an image! Sounds like magic or kismet. These brushes with fate are pure passion and seldom last, except in our hearts where they breathe eternal...
