REAPER

I hear to the distant chime and toll of the cathedral bell,
It's mournful ring whispering to my soul that all is not well,
It seeps into my conscience and taunts like a demon from hell,
The anguish tormenting my soul in ways I cannot tell.

My freedom is tainted and my glow is gone,
For the devil painted my world and left an empty cone,
I nearly fainted as I teetered and tottered, totally driven by the alluring tone,
Dancing to the cruel rhythm to which my life seems drawn.

The reality dawns, suddenly like stones in a shower of hail,
Shocking my heart and soul and drowning my painful wail,
From the realization that I just missed the devils tail,
And missed and encounter with the grim reaper,just about to set sail.

A LETTER TO GOD

Dear Heavenly Father, Every morning I wake up and wish heaven was a physical destination, Where I could race to seek Your audience whenever life tossed me into a situation, For though I've read your word and partaken of your freedom and liberation, I sometimes can't help but wish that we could share coffee, and have a face to face conversation. You see, sometimes I wish that heaven had a postal address where I could send my mail, Or a port of call that I could land for comfort whenever life storms made me frail, Like a wounded warship keeling over with broken masts and a torn sail, Limping home for warmth and comfort after the violence of raging storms and hail. When reading your word I am amazed by the intricacy and depth of your mercies, That you sacrificed your only son to die for me without considering my inadequacies, Which are so many that I sometimes feel unworthy of your love and many promises, But again you reassure me that you love me ev

DANGEROUS LOVE

Every time I see Your face, My heart increases its pace, Overpowered by the conviction to present its case, Confess of how I feel lost in Your gaze. Your style is so amazing, Your countenance totally captivating, Your beauty surpasses enchanting, Your character? So full of life and interesting.  Its just that with You I'm like a moth playing with a flame, So captivated though I know that its such a dangerous game, Which can burn my wings and leave me lame, So if I get heartbroken I'll only have myself to blame. © Patolyer 2012

I WANT YOU

I want an incisive, insightful,irreverent, inquisitive and challenging mind. I want someone with whom philosophical discourse is foreplay. I want someone who makes my knees go weak with her sharp wit, irresistible charm and keen sense of humor. I want someone who speaks sarcasm as a mothertongue, with whom double entendres and naughty innuendos will form the foundation of our communication. I want someone that I reach out and touch randomly, caress her sensually, just by exchanging passionate words. I want someone I cuddle with, just by whispering in her ear. I want someone with skillfully honed imagination, ready to push the limits in exploration. I want someone...... I want You!!! ©Patolyer 2015.
