Amber

--Reserve your sorrow for your pen, and happiness will flow within--A. Larie Connelly 2009

*~*Sleeping River Bed ~*~*

A calm mirrored reflection seen
Beauty captured through a distant gaze
Lovers bathing in deep blue ripples
Wading beside the rocky maze

Falling on a bar of sand
Making love and sleeping sound
Breathing crisp untainted air
Silence paints no soul around

Dreaming as you're lying there
Golden sunshine in your hair
Peaceful sighs relax your mind
Troubled thoughts are left behind

Staring at your sleeping beauty
Contemplating future plans
Watching sunsets for years to come
Skipping, laughing, holding hands

Forgiving you has been such bliss
Forever tasting your flavored kiss
But still I wonder why you're here
You left me with my pouring tears

I'm glad you are before my eyes
I'm rid of many loathsome nights
Knowing you are always here
Shines a newly waking light

I have to go just for a while
Just smile that sleeping beauty smile
When I return you will be dead
Beneath this lonely river bed

Cobblestone of Deception

Deception on a vicious path
Leads to vengeance, fear, and wrath
Cobblestone of wilted spirit
No resolve on your behalf

Just above the copper hill
Sand and dust upon the mill
Blowing forces stun your feet
Down again against your will

Never learning from mistakes
Never welcoming a break
Throw your heart upon the path
Just to find you are a fake

Overturning what is right
Cords that pull you straight and tight
Draining life within your breast
Regaining not your absent sight

Footsteps on the cobblestone
Up that copper hill alone
Passed that rusty mill again
Deception finds its way back home

Beckoned Sin

Fallen for you in disguise
Words withheld and hidden well
Cast aside this demonic hold
That prevails and carries me to hell
Feeling heat upon my feet
Tied with wires, bloody wrists
Taking hold of my desires
Gripping well, white-knuckled fists
All for you and for your love
Because I need to feel you near
Hold me tight with strength renewed
Until I cry with anxious tears
I am your slave forever more
Relinquishing my vows to him
Begging for that deepened love
With every act of beckoned sin
Inside of me, is where you live
Making love with every breath
Forcefully or with consent
Until all is gone and nothings left
My body is given up for you
Willingly and for you alone
Flesh is only guilty flesh
Until stripped away from naked bone
All remorse fades to black
Gone without a cause or clue
All for lust and revelation
Freely given just to you
My king you are and reign forever
I worship thee all from within
I cherish every waking pleasure
Derived alone from beckoned sin
