If I Pay Thee Not In Gold If I pay thee not in gold But in my sorrowed prose Will thy heart turn cold Bitter sweet as a faded rose?
If I use poet's words to say, And only speak in rhyme That I haven't ever felt this way For the longest time
Will thy eyes turn dead glistening dull, without consequence a yawning void between us I dred the daggar of your indifference?
If I were a melody to sing Would thy voice then turn bitter To believe what lilting lyrics bring That all gold does not glitter?
If I paid thee not in gold Yet in my soul instead Would you want to share this dream I've told Or have you heard a word I've said? |

"Currently Untitled" From the train go I then through these ancient halls as the cypress sigh the hidden door calls
By the lantern bright and by the secret stair leads the maiden out of sight Ebony tresses and skin so fair.
Foreign words whispered in the dark, chants to bring the crystal's light, spirit whispers leave their mark, 'tis magic that she does this night.
Time has no meaning soul and craft become one this world's hold shall have no seeming once the mage has done
The powers doth hit, strange yet wonderful cannot stop the light 'twas lit, Must let the night take its toll She'll still raise hands to the heavens above, Even if the price is her soul, Oh, even her life for love.
Now the power of Gods she hath spent the light is quiet now and dim Never shall she repent Fore she gave herself for him.
What long ago evil had sown Her lover in hidden eternal sleep Broken now that her strength has grown This one last promise to keep.
Arises a strong, young lord, from out the hidden door one last love she gave untoward she lies still and cold now upon the floor.
He thanked her with a tear as he saw her fate he blessed her as he cried, his hands useless, for aid 'twas too late, for this one he loved and more now that she died.
He left behind a eulogy, and symbol in the dust A final offering up to Christ A lone cross, words now covered in rust, "To my love, thou sacrificed"
(can anyone think of a title for this?) |

Speak to me like Rain Speak to me like rain, let your words travel from my head trickle down my body, seep into my skin. Your life becomes a part of me like the good earth and the wind . . .
Speak to me like rain, let it drizzle into my mouth and cool my waiting tongue, tell me of, the lightning yet to come. Cool, soft and gentle, yet solid as the wind, waiting for that bliss . . .
Speak to me like rain, and let me quench my aching thirst for your love. |

Garden Pool Made of Morning Quick and light, dances the air downy cloud covered sky rain crisp upon each breath in delicate lillies we lie.
Chill, still waters Reflective black mirror dreams Another world of clouds and lillies lives behind the reflection As dawns light gleams.
Diamond droplet kisses leave rippling remarks Trees whisper to the singing, the music of the larks.
Pink life, of floating flowers fuzzy cat tails lee dragonflies diaphonous wings glitter I lean 'oer edge to see
Reflecting on my own reflection Thinking of this image that I see Could this seeming reflection Be reflecting instead on me? |
