Skull Kissing

Skull Kissing

In this catacomb

Surrounded by dust

Curled onto a shroud

Of ceremony
Β 

My tears absorb swift

On the cusp of death

As I stare into sockets

Left empty
Β 

I am entombed pain

Reminiscing of you

Craving to see face

So familiar
Β 

Holding onto boney jaw,

No lips left to whisper

Crypt echoes silent

In finality
Β 

I close my eyes

And recall the past

Pursing my kiss

Into keeping
Β 

Here in this necropolis

Surrounded in grey

I decay on memories

Skull kissing

Β

Hi Tony. :) Thank you so much. It tookΒ me forever to find a picture to fit the poem lol. I thought it would fit the feel of the season. Glad it worked. Been doing so much positive writing lately it is good to know I can still do some of the darker side too.Β 

Hope you're doing well. Sorry I'm not here much... very, very busy of late, but I will try to stop in once or twice a week.Β 

Hugs and Blessings friendΒ

Hi sweetie,

This is a superbly well written and well thought out piece. I have never tried to write a dark poem, I will try some day! Well done sweetie for a brilliant write that was an enjoyable read and I thought the picture was simply perfect for it too. I`m proud of you honey.

Love G xx

The Universe is so amazing... Everything happens at the right time, in the right place, and usually when we didn't know we needed it. lol I'll explain.

My life has become full of late, with projects and obligations, and so much happiness that I rarely have time to feel anything. But when I do get thoseΒ moments, I miss the person I shared all of this with. He was the one who encouraged and criticized and reminded me to trust in my voice. He passed this year from cancer and I've been asking myself in the quiet moments if he would be proud of me... Your comment just gave me the answer. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Blessings and so much gratitude... RebeccaΒ
