Silent promise In the space that night allows Consulting with my demons Remembering your heartbeat Racing in the summer sun This fall, I vow to dream a little more Daring to believe you’ll stay Wanting to find better days Under blinking stars And falling leaves #kaytpoemprompts

Cushioned floors Under majestic pines Lined with fallen needles A cathedral for the soul All words land lightly Praise precipitates With a glance Welcome hands wield Power in soft touches As hours drift away And no one minds #FoxProse @FoxProse

Hard looks in soft moments Hands calloused from the oar Follow currents tested before Eyes low with our hearts We each know the score Let’s try not to drift away, not again Into the mist, down the long reach Around on our wake, limp & sore As we’ve labored before #kaytpoemprompts

Feet stumble on the shore Eyes failing to follow Foggy paths Waves weave their sorrow Steady rhythm plays Heart breaks Without reason She’s drifted away Faint echoes of laughter All that remain Light shines through a mist Distorted & cold Calling her name #OurPoetryX @OurPoetryX

Flow with feeling Follow its lead Deep into meaning Chasing the need Mischief in evolution Smelling the rose Coming together, coming undone Wherever she goes Thoughts fade to shadows Fall into this mess Taste the flavors becoming Among all the rest 📷 Unknown @Amatoryq #Amatory

She likes his feel Hot breath on her neck Cold teeth testing her flesh Bringing her to her knees Cue the growl from all four More monsters, pretty please Lift howls into darkness Piercing the night Take your time, dear boy Get it right #kaytpoemprompts
