#pennedreveries

that shift
tectonic

auras finding new shade

something ancient
something primal
that never formed a word

a scent
a notion
a need

embedded

all else is pale
since i felt her flame

Day 8

A song with a title relating to fire or heat

The Cure - Burn

youtu.be/mm-uozFJekA?...

#DavidsMonthOfMusic

vital
pulsing through me

i can neither dream
or lust without

my blood
has always known your name

#vss365
#blood

Day 7

A song with a word that starts with "un" in the title

Mushroomhead - Solitaire Unravelling

youtu.be/GiVdpZZLs7A?...

#DavidsMonthOfMusic

i wear you
like a #wound

the arrow
at my chest

a rapier thrust
severing dream from hope

a damoclesian blade
that ran through me
thread fraying
when faith should have bound it

a coup de grâce
when nothing means anything

does the heart on my sleeve
beat its last
or—

#vss365

Day 6

A song with the same title as a movie, book or TV show

Haim - The Wire

youtu.be/1TffpkE2GU4?...

#DavidsMonthOfMusic

Would you believe me if I told you how much you matter

that exquisite tension that impossible promise as hair meets string as is our touch the miracles within each potential sequence the reverie-like motion as i slip a strap from your shoulder as is our dreaming from quiescence to cosmic symphony if we kissed all essence and music slipping the last garment past your calves i can hear your skin sing i breathe your rhythm sway with your hips playing each other perfect instruments the deft hands of maestros trembling still in anticipation as is our desire i hope that you adore me anywhere near as much as i adore you

cosmic symphony...

it's all about perspective train tracks never diverging relentless routine or the temptation of destination alluring horizons new shores of inspiration or the promise of distance from all you would leave behind always forward it's all about perspective unfortunately we don't always get to choose the eyes our souls will see through today

#pennedreveries

i just want to hold you;

#lambent penumbras

soft
insistent

gentler need
felt fathoms deep

i want to make love to you;

wildfire promise

feral
voracious

earnest desire
irrepressibly profound

the flame
regardless of ardency
forever
one and the same

it is always you

Day 5

a song you play when you're sad

Korn - Alone I Break

youtu.be/joVM2g6bCPM?...

#DavidsMonthOfMusic

do you feel it in your blood in muscle memory in anticipating heartbeats something primal stir incendiary notions teasing infernos from embers lustful beats evoked by the spark melodies flow rivers of reveries rivulets of sweat blissfully earned in the fervour our bodies speak darling how i desire this with you nascent touches finding that groove discovering you exploring you knowing you undoing you if only i could be that rhythm that sates your every ache

finding that groove...
melodies flow...
lustful beats...

#Amatory
@amatoryq.bsky.social

delicate petals
bely the depth of root

i am in awe of her

that flower
defying any storm

we all bend
we all break

she endures
she thrives

resplendent
in her spring

she blooms constantly
in my garden of reveries

impossibly beautiful

in fortitude
and grace

#pennedreveries

darling

the ghost
on my skin

haunting me
long after every dream

regardless of shade
resonance of colour

darling

the muse
of waking reverie

inspiring me
long after every song

echoes of everything
eternities of grace

#vss365
#ghost

Day 4

A song you play when you're angry

Sepultura - Refuse/Resist

youtu.be/xX7V3ReOI8c?...

#DavidsMonthOfMusic

I often feel like I'm just an annoyance and people at best just tolerate me

such sincere words like delicate butterfly wings stirring hidden waves across pristine surfaces of sacred fonts between desires' walls in the heat lost to lunatic longing testing the storms and their resolve a fingertip barely perceptible motion teasing where the fervour stems the need at its most divine come for me darling again and again

hidden waves...
between desires' walls...
testing the storms...

#Amatory
@amatoryq.bsky.social

that which was never whole
knowing the dull pain
of separation

longing entangled
in phantom limbs

the thrum
and swell
echoing
in empty chambers

if i could kiss it away darling
i would in a heartbeat

hold every shade of you

kindle
your every flame

#vss365
#pain

Day 3

A song you play when you're happy

Vic Reeves & The Wonder Stuff - Dizzy

youtu.be/2AYWdgXYKbE?...

#DavidsMonthOfMusic

lambent haloes tease umbra from our entwined forms soft-focus promises dance upon the canvas of boudoir walls tell me darling what words must be uttered what deeds must transpire what hand must fate deal to find me imbued in you to make that flickering flame an inferno to devour us with every searing touch with every incendiary stroke tell me darling how do i make this reverie even an inch closer to reality

transpire...
#UnchainedSymphonies

Oh. Hi.

we move as one fluid shadows curve meeting contour planes of skin gliding in arcane rhythm my body knowing yours depths explored and peaks reached such delicious undoing threads of love binding that which remains tethering us to this moment and every one to follow stitched together as we came together perfect in it's fragility or fragile in its perfection our sacred and profane union i love the thought of making love to you i love the thought of how we'd never be the same stained beautifully enamored recklessly because we dared

threads of love...

#Amatory
@amatoryq.bsky.social

😊🙏

my #soul resonates
when i think of your touch

butterfly wings

dandelion seeds on a zephyr

sweet
vague
notions

kaleidescopes
and cataclysms
in exquisite resplendence
tearing dreamscape skies
with impossible light
and rapturous rains

delicious intimacies

darling
i...

Day 2

A song from your favourite album

Pearl Jam - Porch

youtu.be/NWKf2VhnoHE?...

#DavidsMonthOfMusic

once again predictably inevitably lost in a daydream once again enraptured in reverie i found my heart beating to the rhythm of your name and i think of your thighs and i think of your fingertips and i think of your mesmeric motion and i think of your glistening promise once again i put pen to paper turn my need for you into aching verse once again between the pages each intimate act i envision where i am inside of you and i think of your sound and i think of your feel and i think of your taste and i think of your want and once again you're all i'm thinking of consumed coming

lost in a daydream...
between the pages...
found my heart...

#Amatory
@amatoryq.bsky.social

i simply think of you and i feel the thrum of vitality flow through me your existence the lifeblood giving my dreams life i could compose an epic ode for each inch of you a full symphony for every way i want to make love to you no silence no dissonance just how you inspire me to create to breathe to hope

lifeblood...
#pennedreveries
