Open your eyes mortal soul
a white winter is falling on the ground,
painting the landscape with the coldness that wraps your heart
an inspiring day for longing for your touch
how much I desire a single moment of your
love, venturing out to fallen snow I rest my
sorrows and breathe the cold air into my lungs,
I close my eyes and think of you
wanting to go home and be with you
I miss the magical tones that you
sing to my love but
my soul is feeling grey.

A Fleeting Kiss

By Alex Paulino

A wandering soul has fallen upon my feet
arousing the creature that laid beneath
endless thoughts filling up the dark nights
giving a glimpse of hope to a forgotten man
Angel of heaven lost in the shadows
searching in the dark what couldn't be found
her beauty is magnified by the simplicity
of a look
The Whispers of unspoken words circling in my
head, a soft voice ringing in my ears
closing my eyes and burying the dead
opening my heart and feeling a fleeting kiss

Hunger

By Alex Paulino

Awaken, haunted, no longer seeing daylight I
hide in the shadows tracking a lady of
darkness, her scent is near intoxicating me
like a black rose,seducing me, starving me,
such hunger can only be satisfied with a bite
of her pink flesh
The smell, the taste, the encounter is
ferocious, an epic battle ensues, her denial
is such a tease that only enflames my
determination to seek, to conquer
I stand above her and she surrenders,
"What do you want from me, forsaken soul?
I have already given you my heart...
What else could you possibly desire?"
your heart is only an appetizer...
I seek your soul.
