In Loves
Simplistic Charms.
______________

There is
Profundity
to be found..

in Loves
Simplistic
Charms..

and Life
makes
Poetic
Sounds.

(when I
hold you
in My
Arms.)
__

Dark Roads
had once
been trodden..

on Nights
which never
seemed
to End..

but that
Path is
Now
Forgotten.

(Since love
came round
the bend.)

The Sad

stand behind

Her.

into The

Nothing.)

I can't take

this Lonely

Hell!

Just

Love Me..

Want me!

talking to

The World,

or Some

Lost Self?)

__

The Mirror

of course

remains Silent.

(it always

does)

even when

The Sad 

Little
Angel gets

violent,
and

starts to 

CUT.

Damn
You!

Damn
you

and Your

Love!

(she

exclaims.)

I'm 

Tired

The 

Bloody
Mirror

and takes

another

Selfie.

As Shadows

stand behind

Her.

her Shame.)

Speak Not In Saddened Tones For Me.

Speak Not In
Saddened
Tones For Me.
_____________

Speak not in
Saddened Tones
for me,

when I have
reached my
End.

But Remember
All of the
Kinder Things.


(I did for
Family and
Friends.)
__

For
Death is
not the
End of
Us..

it's only
a Reprieve..

and
Nothing
defeats the
Power of
Love!!


(When
You choose
To Still
Believe.)
__

Thus seek
 me
not in Ghostly
Forms..

nor call
upon
My Name..

I have
ridden
out
The Worst of
Storms!

My
Sorrows Fade.)

Oh,

Speak not in
Saddened Tones
for me..

when My
Life
has reached
it's End..

Just
Remember
There
Will  Be Finer
Things!

Above Again.)

A Euphoric Bliss.

A Euphoric Bliss
__________________

There's so much
My Bright Self
wants to say..
(that this Empty
Shadow won't
allow.)
Like how I see
The Sunrise in
Her face.
(and feel it's
warmth upon
my brow.)
__

A Kiss can be
A Hollow Thing,
or save Ones Soul
From The Grave;
yet Her lips create
Eternity!
(A Euphoric Bliss
that will not fade.)
__

Without Her Presence
I Am Nothing,..
(but another Poet
full of Words.)
Wandering Lost
A World Turned Ugly!
(Consumed by The
Absurd.)
__

There's so
much My Bright
self wishes to be!
(which this hateful
Shadow thus Corrupts.)
Like A man in
charge of Destiny!
(who can admit he's
found True Love.)

This Place.

This Place.
___________

This must be
The Place.
(Broken Hearts
Come to Die.)

A
Pit of
Love 
Disgraced!

(which makes
Once Joyous
Angels Cry.)
_

My 
Impoverished
House of Filthy
Creatures.

(with cold,
Indifferent 
Features)

Where Shadows
come to feast
upon The Memory
of Her Smile!

(A Domicile
Of Hope Defiled.)
_

I walk Sad
Empty Halls
still seeking,
ways to restore
My Former Grace;

as she Waits
somewhere 
(darker)
Dreaming!!!!

(Of a Love to
Free Her from
This Place.)

J.Stephen.H.

Until My Shadow Laughs.

Until My Shadow Laughs.
___________________

My Lovely 
says something 
is missing. 
(like A 
Sense of Joy 
when we stand 
Kissing.) 

I laugh 
so Hard My 
Shadow cries. 
( but only 
Serpents are 
Listening.) 
______ 

She Hates 
The way 
I Love to 
Hate. 

It fills 
her eyes 
with Sorrowed 
Stares. 

I Love 
The Pen 
which 
Desecrates! 

(and confuses 
' Reality 
with Nightmares.) 
________ 

My Lovely 
Knows My 
Heart is 
Empty.. 
but adores 
My Soul 
in spite 
of that. 

She tells 
me she is 
Not The 
Enemy. 

(I cry until 
My Shadow 
Laughs.)
