Ashen loves



Hearts…
Fondest, on edge of broken;
Words…I love you
Ring out loudest… when heartfelt spoken;
Hence, how I miss thee
Thy absence cause;
Longing, to grow and grow
Shadow’s passing days set pause;
Pen spilt amid desiring scripts
In desperations, desires of thy soon return;
But, alas thy yearnings never echo
Aye, the afflictions, affections infections hotter do burn;
I shall forever sit…
 Upon this place
Wherst I wither and drown;
If thee shall not restore thy love… unto me
Then, I wilt and wear death’s royal crown;
Lastly clutching …what once tis had,
This soul without you ...a bleeding cost;
Slowly, enters after life within netherlands
Where I do wait, in spirit forever lost

Nighttiger

A fortyish native born all American man. Married twice and for the last time. I have four children; Three daughters and one son that are all over the age of eighteen. I also have two grandchildren; one three years old and one nine months old. Inspired by God, tragedy, life's experiences and then a fairy tale love. I never intentionally set out to write poetry, but "She" inspired me. "She" meaning the love of my life. That love is a passion that after thirteen years still grows stronger each and every day. It eventually had to be put into writing. As I wrote poetry to her, she encouraged me to approach other subjects. Doing so brought me to discover that poetry could wash away the bitter tastes of life (suicide, cancer, and divorce) that were still living like demons inside me. So when poetic therapy brought those impish fiends to a stalemate, I began to experiment more. Creating fictional characters and situations within my works. The support of this online community has inspired me even further to continue to hone my writing skills giving the readers the best that I can offer. Thanks to all you out there in Lulu land. more…
