David Lacey Poems

The silhouette of the horizon is wavering, as a mile a minuet we pass
Chalk figures etched into the hillside by ancient hands echoing the grandeur lost of our kingdom green.

Searching for love in the shade of the hangman’s tree,
...

Cold marble pressed against sweating skin
The floor of my asylum is a rivulet of luxury
Decadent memories of a former life stir
Reminiscence within the hours of my awakening
...

Here I am
Restless
Still shaking from the nightmare
Wishing I could share a while
...

Whispered on the desert night
Drifts the secret of eternal light
Yet frozen in the sands of time
Lies lost this wandering heart of mine.
...

Feel the rhythm of your heartbeats grace
Feel the rhythm as your heartbeats race
Feel the love of all our race
Allow this love to heal your faith.
...

All that was forever is and will be forever more
Cast a circle, kiss the wind, and walk on through the door.
All that is forever was yet remains just like before
You say this feeling’s all of my love yet I’d vouch that it was yours
...

I always said I would never take the magic carpet ride
Yet curiosity took hold and I had no place to hide
As I spiralled into a wonderland of my own surreal creation.
And here I awaiting Alice to return, here I remain
...

Esmeralda’s bliss is of an acquired taste, only to be sought
By those willing to meet and converse with the Gods.

Within the forest depths the child of natures undressing is lost,
...

Only the gods shall know our destination
Beyond the gates of earthly ends
Yet we as Gods may know creation
As our best – most beloved of friends.
...

Border dwelling souls bind their shackles to corporeal bodies
Without reason, for the rationality of the soul is split beyond
The whole in an act of insane treason. Spirit remains to guide
Our most divine and sacred aspects, Spirit remains to guide
...
