Paul Foulkes Poems

A kiss so soft a feather upon my lips would feel nothing but rough glass,
i chase this kiss from my dreams to the waking world of life and only for naught
the kiss of that beauty allures me and evades me to such i am driven to madness in search of it through darkest ghastly figures of night time confusion and the many lives and tribulations of all the people whom i have surrounded myself
...

stainless steel glass memories visions i cant seem to shake from my mind the eternal constant vision of your gaze worthy face
the sight of your loveliness makes me celebrate one more day my feet are upon this earth
and curse it to the darkest pits of its black depths
yet i cannot help but weep at the knowledge that face will never be mine to memorize truly never to see that face within a crowd an silently scream my happiness and joy
...

blackness and Darkness.
Hidden and unseen it lurks.
A monster in utter secrecy.
clouded in a flow of words.
...

my tiny samsung d600e orange network phone holds my small insignificant heart
why do i trust my heart something so dear to me and my existence to a small piece of plastic and wires?
its not for love of machines or technology or cold expressionless things
its not for security since my heart like my phone can be stolen away just as quickly
...

my mind unset
wet clothes sticking to cold skin
rain mixed with sweat
nerves and concentration unwinding from its balled coil
...

I cannot confess.
cannot tell what aches.
i can only lay and lie.
My mouth sown shut.
...

A small head cascading softly beautiful hair Laying next to me in the bed.
a face hidden from me but i know her eyes are closed with sleep.
closed eyes, hiding warm eyes from the dark of sundown.
Shoulders gently clasped by strings, wrapping down a beautiful slender back
...

her eyes cascade beauty and wisdom something i have never seen within such deep pools of human emotion
her skin radiates the strength of her virtuous power warning you of the constant thoughts that course through her very being
sadness drains her anger takes her loneliness isolates her from everyone
shes waiting for him
...
