I crave a love that bares its teeth,
rib to rib in holy war,
fighting as fiercely as we fall into each other,
into me.
#Crazed eyes locked,
unapologetic with devotion and ruin.
Break me,
claim me,
set me in my place,
where passion tastes like blood
and worship.
#poetry #vss365 #writing
I burn alive where the wild hearts collide,
#mystified by sparks that bruise and ignite.
Gentler voices whisper soft as snow,
but I ache for the blaze,
the ruinous glow,
where desire devours the air I breathe,
fumes penetrating deep as blood
and I rise in the fires of home.
#poetry #vss365 #writing
I stand between two heavens undone.
I cannot live without him,
I cannot survive him.
My soul holds its breath,
stars dimmed in silken restraint,
heart caught in a sacred #quiver
where love and ruin share one name.
#poetry #vss365 #writing
I carry on only to call your name.
No future,
no elsewhere,
just this.
Voice weakened, breath thinned
to a simple prayer,
repeated,
cast into the #drizzle of days,
to hear "my darling"
echoed back in your voice.
#poetry #vss365 #writing
What is a soul to do
when #unmoored from belonging,
a spirit from purpose,
a hand from a kiss?
How do lungs breathe
in a chest of white nothing,
when every inhale feels like betrayal,
and the very air, a lie?
What else is there?
For this heart?
But to lay pale on the dock?
#poetry #vss365
Thank you so much!! ☺️
Let them warp me into devil or saint,
I do not #bend,
I do not soften,
I do not explain.
Their twisting is their own worm and shadow.
I stand confident in my knowing,
steel spined,
ember willed,
rooted in a truth no distortion can break.
#poetry #vss365
Those who use sharp words to beckon me,
to dim my glow,
clip my wings,
mistake cruelty for gravity.
I smile,
pivot on my heel,
silken spine aligned,
and with a graceful turn,
I #veer away,
leaving only perfume,
confidence,
worth and power in my wake.
#poetry #vss365
He lived as a ghost in my phone,
and I was his
in quiet devotion.
I went to war against myself
for him,
to be left only wounded.
I trace his smile through glass and light,
my tears fall and #dapple the screen,
a holy grief,
loving what can no longer touch me.
#poetry #vss365
I step forward,
flesh deified by my divine spirit,
hips writing scripture in cursive heat.
Each room bends to my scent,
breathless in my wake,
my heels kiss the earth and claim it,
leaving awe scorched where I #sear my power.
#poetry #vss365
To #stoop to what I outgrew is beneath me.
Spine strengthened
by grace,
blood refined
by gentle determination.
I exalt the woman I am becoming,
and she,
looking back,
will feel pride in me
for refusing to kneel to lesser selves.
#poetry #vss365
Thank you so much ☺️
Thank you so much honey ☺️
Thank you so much!
I move through an emptied cosmos,
breathing where meaning used to live.
The absence is #unmissable,
a god shaped hollow.
My heart beats like it's forgotten how,
purged of purpose,
drumming liturgies of tragedy.
I will learn to live half alive,
even though life now feels destitute.
#poetry #vss365
A woman in a red dress in the dark
#vss365 #PulpFiction #FemmeFatale
I spotted her in the darkness,
at the crime scene, leaning on
some kind of phallic pillar.
In my mind, I saw an
#unmissable red warning flare.
She turned and smiled, slow and
sideways, the of kind of smile that
makes a man blind to warnings.
I step into the ocean's cold embrace,
dissolving devotion from my veins,
salt burning every place love lived.
I drown the butterflies,
the dream,
scream in this holy collapse,
bones breaking marrow into light,
torrential waves baptising sins.
The deep must #deliver me,
or I die.
#poetry #vss365
I tear my heart
from my cracked, heaving ribs
and bury it raw,
still screaming,
to stop the hemorrhage of love,
to free it of paralysis,
the only known way.
I #adorn its grave with jewels
that once lit smiles,
now rusted offerings of agony,
and let the earth finally mute its pain.
#poetry #vss365
Wolf Moon in Gemini,
twin tongues cut illusion,
clarity born of #abstraction.
Venus in Sagittarius,
imbues my heart with truth and desire.
I balance air and fire,
bind will to word.
Whether with clotted blood,
intoxicating venom
or flowing ink,
my life is my poem to write.
#poetry #vss365 #writing
From hell's talons and bleeding wounds,
I rise,
climbing the spine of night
towards Antares' fire.
What broke me becomes nebula wings.
With the turn of a new orbit,
I ascend to the cosmos,
claiming the #dream written in my stars.
No longer crawling,
but exalted.
#poetry #vss365 #prompt #writing
Thank you so very much darling 🥰
I dream of barefoot #travels,
where he can no longer haunt,
let thorns of longing put holes in my sole,
let the hooks in my ribs rend flesh
if they must and rust away.
I flee not from my own heart,
but from ruin,
choosing freedom at last
after the most violent devotion
I survived.
#poetry #vss365
The ghost of longing calls my name
like an answered prayer and bleeding wound,
but my purpose is written in stars,
not echoes.
I turn away trembling,
crowned by destiny,
the #sole authority of my life,
even when it hurts.
#poetry #vss365 #prompt #writing
I lay myself to sleep
dreaming of Antares and Ares entwined,
a love only the cosmos understands.
I wake without #Mars beside me,
missing something vast and holy,
grieving a union that may live
only
where dreams
never
end.
#poetry #vss365 #prompt #writing
From my open palms
I lift my eyes to the dark
and found a lone flame,
steady,
watching,
Antares.
In her glow I felt held,
assured.
Every #struggle on my ascent is sacred,
every ache, a toll paid
toward becoming the star I was born to be.
#poetry #vss365 #prompt
Merry Christmas to you too honey
Antares decrees,
my self love is law,
my honor, celestial fire.
Speak to me with reverence,
or lose access.
Only those who respect my worth may remain,
others do not #survive my stars.
#poetry #vss365 #prompt
Antares decrees,
my standards ignite like stars set high.
Only those who rise may orbit me,
evolve,
ascend,
#jump if you must,
for I bend to the gravity of no other.
I am the threshold,
the fire,
the prize,
the celestial goddess divine.
#poetry #vss365 #prompt
Saturn rests between Pisces' dreams and Aquarius' design,
a ringed sentinel of thresholds.
In this breathing space,
time becomes wisdom.
To witness #Saturn in awe here
is to learn restraint,
devotion,
and how to shape destiny with fluid,
determined ease.
#poetry #vss365 #prompt
From Rho Ophiuchi I burn,
a sovereign breath in the void,
Antares enthroned in starlight.
Orbits soften,
crowns dim,
even comets bow their tails,
and mere mortals kneel,
even gods grow #humble in my gravity.
