Antonia Nasi Poems

There's a happy place I go at night,
In mind and heart, devoid of fright.

Surrounded by this dreamt-up place,
...

I cry out to Lord Byron nightly,
And he comes to me between the realm of fantasy and reality.

He speaks through darkness and whispers of ethereal pain
...

She walks the streets of the French Quarter...
striking at 3am
They named her Melinda, in this...
her immortal life
...

Seduction personified with one look...
Her ivory skin a sheath of silk
Eyes of wanted coal watching with calculated temptation
...

Under blackened sky and quiet space you approached...
my logic slipping away
As boundaries crashed, lines crossed...
hands inches away from each other's bodies
...

Tick tock…
Tick tock…
That’s all she hears of the faint clock
...

A million kisses showered on
His blonde and tousled head

The angels sang when he was born,
...

Breathless,
Waiting for the sun to rise after you've gone

Dreamless,
...

The wizard he waits with wand in his hand,
He's waited for ages to conquer this land

Secluded, he dwells, no friend and no mate...
...

Manny the Mime lurks 'round Central Park,
Waiting for joggers who run after dark.

He draws on a smile,
...
