My Restless Nights I've feared the gentlest touchMy Restless Nights by ~gid
My eyes sweep the stars and fill
As flowers do in rain.
I've feared far too much.
I feared numbness,
But professed its strength.
My nights were cold,
Joined by restlessness.
Now, now I could never feel nothing,
For with you I have hope.
A Beautiful Young Nymph Going She stands beside her bed, disrobes, and sighs,A Beautiful Young Nymph Going by ~gid
For in her glass she sees a nymph's lewd eyes:
Her ev'ry curve's a sultry hint of lust
And ev'ry blush a fault which her needs must.
Corinna stares and thinks that she is fat,
Though clearly one can see she's never that.
Perhaps her lack of belief in self's the cause
Of why she takes this decomposing pause?
Or doubt at man's desire the night to stay?
(Want they her body or mind?) She starts to pray:
She hopes, maybe, beneath this nymph there lies
A sad and beauteous girl quite in disguise.
Shallow Water Your arms are lined with scars,Shallow Water by ~gid
The bitter aches to see you through.
I wonder: my skin is clear, so
Does that make me something less than you?
And your eyes: they burn with passion,
Needing to understand.
You yearn for the experience,
But does that mean you'll refuse my hand?
Tell me, am I wrong?
I think you should be rid of me.
Tell me, were we wrong?
I'll let go for your liberty.
So curl your mouth and feed the fear,
Starve your soul, your delicate frame.
Breathe like shallow waters,
You have seen that I am not the same.
Silence Grief was her serpent's bite,Silence by ~gid
Madness the poison that tinted her sight.
In fear she raged,
With panic she flailed,
And in her reflection she saw
The unfaithful eyes of the past.
Eyes that dulled in fading light,
As breath faltered, her lips pressed tight.
Silence, she knew,
And realised,
Silence was all that
She had ever known.
