Song by the river Your words made my quiver Lapping up melancholy like milk Beneath a downcast sky My sins call your name The moon swings You and I How can I ever be the same (song by the river) #roomprompt (lapping up melancholy like milk) #kaytpoemprompts (beneath a downcast sky) #dark_prompts @dark_prompts (my sins call your name) #moonmystic (the moon swings) #FoxProse That ๐Ÿ‘Š

In absence of poppies a scarlet coat reminded her of the box, in which you lie you were all loyalty and purpose what begins with ink, ends in blood those lost illusions of a long life together dashed on that #longestday #Amatory #Artist_Jamie_Heiden #EkphrasticVoice #BraveWrite

Saints, sinners and lost souls In the beginning Kissed into a daze They tried to center themselves Against the pull of the haze A first curse A last prayer A malediction Wandering Philandering Lost again But in the end Does it really matter In the end Every saint has a past Every sinner has a future (saints, sinners and lost souls, in the beginning, the last prayer) #MadVerse (kissed into a daze) #kaytpoemprompts (center yourself) #KinkPrompt (lost again) #moonmystic That ๐Ÿ‘Š
