David Lacey Poems

It is she who leads my heart in wandering.
It is her ghost who shall guide me throughout the shades.
It is into a Love for her that I fade
Forever sinking into the nightmare.
...

Not a word is there to describe the melancholy blues within which I hide
Nor is there a word to reveal the depths for which I care for you.
Only blue – Only blue exists within these brooding eyes of mine
As solitary confinement refines my perception of place in time.
...

Upon our Journey many fruitful trees we shall pass.
How are we ever know our favourite to taste
If we are forever wasting the present indulging
In a taste we have already relegated to a memory inducing nostalgia?
...

Smoke serpents no longer govern
The skylines of my surroundings.
I find myself in the valley green,
Alone in Love with an Elven queen
...

The canvas empty and expecting
Awaits the stroke of colours pastel in their shades.

Through Improvisation we compose through intuition
...

A love was born on Hallows Eve
A love that did naught but ignite the teasing of the girl
For whom I had longed to please for so long yet had never found the opportunity
Nor had I ever been granted access to slip between the thighs of a girl
...

Always hoping I was for you to kiss me as I wished
In every life I’ve lived you’ve been eluding my seduction
...

Armoured in glamour she was defenceless still when bound
Willingly to play – Unveiling the serpent’s eye she looked naught less than surprised
To meet with such throbbing an evil bearing unique with the innocence of adolescence.
Still I long to know you, and for you to take from me this purity I keep
...

I told you it would last forever
Unknowing you would pass me by.

Now in sighing
...

How can we expect good from anyone and be disappointed when
It is not displayed when we do not act in accordance to the rulings
Of our own hearts? How are we to expect anyone to resist the temptation
Of exploitation if we are to be so happy in exploiting others ourselves?
...
