Useless Emotion
Twist the knife,
Bury it deeper.
The ties that bind me,
Will not fail.
These traps are strong,
Secure in their right.
I will not fail
I will not destroy
I will not commit
to keeping this alive.
That will go on
That will stay strong
I will live around it
I will try to forget it
I won't succeed.

Bliss
Wrap your fingers in my hair
Let your lips taste my skin
May your fingers travel where they will


Your heart will beat faster
Your breath will come in gasps


Allow your body to be urgent
Your strength to resist


Accept that your eyes will wander
Over me
Until that moment comes


When we are together again
Our eyes lock and our lips meet
As our bodies rejoice
At the infernal heat


The world will plummet over a cliff
And eventually find footing again


And in the moonlight
As it dances on your face
I'll tell you I love you
And know we created
Bliss

Her face lifted to face the moonlight. A small knowing smile curved her lips as she rolled and grabbed air. Alarmed slightly she sat up quickly. Darius chuckled low and deep from the shaded corner of the room. Pheonix grabbed a pillow and tossed it at him, hitting her mark. He growled low in his throat and she found herself promptly on her back on the bed. She squirmed against him, and again he chuckled. His lips touched hers and a fire started low in her belly. Her arms twined around his neck drawing him closer as her hips arched upwards towards his instinctively. She moaned as his tongue delved between her lips into the honey sweet depths of her mouth. She ran her nails demurely up his spine, and he nearly purred as the sensation coated his skin. Pulling back slightly he lifted her chin with his finger and ran his tongue gently along the column of her throat, tracing slightly the chain holding the ruby against her skin. He kissed just below it, between the curves of her breasts causing her to arch into his mouth, wanting more. His hands began of their own accord, to wander the flat of her stomach below her navel to the hair line, and back up again to cup her breast. Swiftly his mouth followed his hand ending on her nipple. Licking and teasing it to a stiff peak. She moaned and silently begged for more. He gladly obliged, slightly pressing his erection at her entrance. She swiveled her hips, capturing him inside, as he gasped quietly. Slowly he began to rock farther and farther inside her. Building momentum and torturing her with the intense pleasure. Suddenly she was there and he began to thrust into her wet mound, as she screamed his name out over and over. He saw bliss as well, and collapsed, sated on top of her. Remembering briefly to roll to his side, so he didn't crush her. She sighed, and laid her head on his shoulder.
Much later, thoroughly bathed and dressed (with his help), Pheonix stood on the balcony, waiting, remembering. He walked up behind her and kissed her shoulders, I know it's not something you enjoy, but will you hunt with me? Caught up in the kisses and caresses she had forgotten the gnawing hunger, reminded now, she answered simply, Yes. He smiled, as they flew over the balcony, swiftly landing on the ground fingers entwined, and moonlight glinting off the single ruby dangling around her throat.

Smiling
My head is spinning
My mind is whirling
My heart is pounding
My face is smiling
My wrists are bleeding
My blood is spilling
My skin is paling
My face is smiling
My world is fading
My eyes are un-seeing
My life is draining
My face is smiling.

In Your Wake
In the empty day that awaits
I see your strength
Determination
Persistence
Gaining momentum 
Passing heights unseen
Causing ripples in effect
Reversal of cause
Options unavailable 
Blow it up
Pass it by
Get on with it.
