Such Pretty Things

A pale moon glows
The stars twinkle bright
The faeries are dancing
It’s a magical night

Soft flowers are tucked
Into dark flowing tresses
And glittering on such
Ethereal dresses

The water is shimmering
With the silver moonlight
Oh what a beautiful
Glorious sight!

The scent of jasmine
Permeates the air
As the garden is filled
With ones so Fair

Their twinkling laughter
Is like an instrument all its own
The music so delightful
The night starts to moan

And there on the shores
Of a mysterious sea
Such pretty faeries
They call to me

The Mirror

There’s a face inside my mirror
With haunted bloodshot eyes
It sits and stares right back at me
Its mouth twisted is I cry

I think i used to know her
She used to smile a lot
Now she’s trapped inside that gloom
As slowly she starts to rot

Her hands are twisted round the knife
That sticks out of her chest
Her mouth it moves as though to speak
Her pain she will attest

She stares at me with hatred
Such loathing upon her face
I wince and hold on tightly
As her pain I try to embrace

Then suddenly I’m in the mirror
She is outside staring at me
She looks at me with pity
She knows I’ll never be free

Speak To Me Love

Speak to me love
Tell my your secrets, your fears
Pour into me your dreams and hopes
Shower me with your tears

Speak to me love
I’ll not tell a soul
For you, are my world
You make me whole

Speak to me love
Let it flow like a river
Let the words dance
Let them quiver

Speak to me love
For I am your life anew
Reside within me
For I am bound to you

Guilty Secret

Often when I look at you,
I feel nothing at all
I know I once felt differently
But now I struggle to recall

The guilt it threatens to bury me
From the truth I try to hide
There is no-one around who knows how I feel
There is no-one in whom I can confide

Once we had a bond so strong
And my emotions were real and raw
Once the thought of leaving you
Would have rocked me to the core

But now I’m just existing here
Just longing to be set free
And even though I love you so
I’ve lost the essence of me

Night Beauty Series

Night Beauty

A woman in flowing robes walks
Steadily through the rising mist
The Moon is full and lights her way
Her skin shimmering, star-kissed
She follows a path no-one else can see
There’s a map drawn upon her heart
She feels it leading her gently along
Its been guiding her from the start
Her gentle steps do not disturb
There is silence in the air
She feels a welling in her heart
As she seeks out the Ones so Fair
There is a radiance about her
A beauty thats rarely seen
As she glides through the glistening
Night as though lost inside a dream



Night Beauty part 2

Ahead she sees the lamplight
A beacon for travellers in the night
The Faerie realm lies before her
Ah! You’ve never seen such a sight

Magick shimmers in the air
The flowers are in bloom
Their fragrance wafts throughout
The night, an enchanting perfume

She steps before the Queen so Fair
Courtesy’s with perfect grace
The Fair Queen smiles lovingly
Upon the beautiful woman’s face

The clouds in the sky, do part a little
The Moon shines down from above
The Queen reaches out and embraces
The daughter she called Love.

The Inevitable

Clinging desperately to hope
To the joy that once filled my heart
Watching, in disbelief as we are
Increasingly torn apart

Aching to go back, to those
Awesome times we shared
Longing to stop the inevitable
Wondering, can this be repaired?

Loving you has changed me
In ways I’d never dreamed
Yet still there is so much
That simply cannot be redeemed

I wish that I could see you again
And be held in your embrace
I long to nuzzle into you
As you kiss my tear stained face

My heart, it just won’t let you go
And my soul cries the tears I hide
As every day we draw it out
Neither one of us willing to decide
