Behind Night's Curtain (Kyrielle)
I feel a presence, soft and warm
When all around me, seems to form
A shadow, mainly of a face
Behind night's curtain, made of lace.
My eyes can see the outline clear
Of sweet, wet lips that kiss me here
And there and every other place
Behind night's curtain, made of lace.
The touch, the feel is so devine
If only I could make him mine
Forever Me, his fingers trace
Behind night's curtain, made of lace.

Virginity of Passion (Kyrielle Sonnet)
When first appeared in light of morn
I felt the kiss of passion, born.
My heart pumped wildly from the thrill
Overflowing, my passions fill.
And as I wait each night to end
My mind, my body reach to bend
To words of want and desires still
Overflowing, my passions fill.
Then, as each break of day appears
And whispers sweet, drip honey here
Your eyes see all and wait until
Overflowing, my passions fill.
No longer pure of virgin's will
Overflowing, my passions fill.

On Becoming Real ( Terza Rima )
As you grow, new lessons you learn each day
One being, to trust wisdom of heart
You become Real, and it lasts for always
But to do this you must learn to impart
Ideas both uncertain and complex
Accepting of differences from the start
Of persons and places that you meet next
Enjoying the knowledge that's gained from each
Loving life's learning, not out of a text
But what is Real, that from outside, can teach
Sometimes uncomfortable, unpleasant, too
The process of choice is within your reach
A lover of life's beauty of all, who
then will become Real, authentic and true

Having But One Heart To Give (Rondeau)
Having but one heart to give, adoring and so true
A depth of love that lies within, that shall be shared anew
Cannot ever be defined, for limitless its' walls
Boundaries are opened wide, and knowing no pitfalls
Promises, one hopes to keep, to dream of only you
Gentle and such loving words, to take away the blue
From out of mouths of babes, so innocently they strew
Tending to love's healing, thus alleviating all
Having but one heart to give ...
Future days, will not seem as dim, loving just we two
On mountain tops, under falls, on grass, so damp of dew
For each new day that passes, sun lifts and then it falls
Within confines of morn 'til night, to each the love enthrals
For in this life of love so free, I have a different view
Having but one heart to give ...

If Truth Be Told (Rondeau)
If truth be told, it's hard and fast
Love's gracious hold on me, doth last
Within my heart, within my soul
Time marches on and I grow old
Behind me now, my loving past
How simple the joy of loves contrast
The loss of love, when the die is cast
In future, never to reach that goal
If truth be told
Protecting my heart, my love can outlast
The stormy seas, with the winds all aghast
Returning the love, desire you stole
Pieced back together, my heart is now whole
Dreams that come slowly, now holding steadfast
If truth be told

I Miss The Tender ( Rondel)
As the years have passed on by
I miss the tender, that I once knew
Of memories that made me sigh
The dance of love, as if on cue
On wings up high, like doves, he flew
And left behind, my love to die
As the years have passed on by
I miss the tender, that I once knew
Each morning light appears to vie
With rainbows bright, of colored hue
From tears of loss that drowns the eye
That leaves me spent from want of you
As the years have passed on by
I miss the tender, that I once knew

Let Secrets Release (Rondel)
Let deepest and darkest secrets release,
To free thee from nights of torment and pain.
Come share thy past and delight in the peace,
A love that repeats, again and again.
As we dance in shadows, of the refrain
Memories of hurt and torture do cease.
Let deepest and darkest secrets release,
To free thee from nights of torment and pain.
Sharing thy bounty as one, to increase
the wonders of loving, life to sustain.
Promising never, each other to fleece.
Holding the sands of time, every grain.
Let deepest and darkest secrets release,
To free thee from nights of torment and pain.

Having Failed At Thy Quest (Rondel)
One's life now over, having failed at thy quest
Only whispering winds, for one to mourn
Clothe thee in black, and lay thee to rest
No lasting peace, now only forlorn
A day of turmoil, a day of too worn
Too open was thee, should have never confessed
One's life now over, having failed at thy quest
Only whispering winds, for one to mourn
Place a red rose, upon thy breast
One for the wilted, having only one thorn
Punctured thy heart, having tried thy best
Bleeding its colours, cursing words that were born
One's life now over, having failed at thy quest
Only whispering winds, for one to mourn

I Want You To Know (Rondel)
I want you to know I believe in us
And I'll always be there for you
No matter how the future unfolds
My love is forever and true
Though miles are far and the view unclear
I can see you as if you are here
I want you to know I believe in us
And I'll always be here for you
My heart's filled with love, and thoughts of your touch
And for now that will have to do
Until time is right and together, are we
These words we must read, in lieu
I want you to know I believe in us
And I'll always be here for you

To Ride The Waves (Pantoum)
If words alone could fly us to the moon
The stars we'd pass would be our verses, all
In dark blue-black of night, we'd hear "our tune"
Of poems formed, by stepping stars, that call
The stars we'd pass would be our verses, all
Shine love upon us both, in glowing words
Of poems formed, by stepping stars, that call
In whispers from the moon, in shadows heard
Shine love upon us both, in glowing words
Surround with beams, an atmosphere so bright
In whispers from the moon, in shadows heard
Your warmth is mine, mine yours when moon's in sight
Surround with beams, an atmosphere so bright
Each touch, of shine, becomes a lover's kiss
Your warmth is mine, mine yours when moon's in sight
Let's seize upon these moments, one's of bliss
Each touch, of shine, becomes a lover's kiss
We rise come night, to ride the waves of love
Let's seize upon these moments, one's of bliss
Romance the stars, to reach the heavens 'bove
We rise come night, to ride the waves of love
If words alone could fly us to the moon
Romance the stars, to reach the heavens 'bove
In dark blue-black of night, we'd hear "our tune"

Moments Cherished ( A Sonnet )
I hold, I cherish, I adore thy love
That is pressed so gently in books, thereof
The flowers, the scents of moments we shared
The past in pages, I open, still there
Forever my love, thoughts of you are stored
From each of our days, that we two explored
Together a love, none greater could find
Moments we then shared, the best of it's kind
Though missing your touches, your love and thee
Sweetness and sunshine still linger with me
Love hearing from you that I will remain
Flooding your thoughts like a warm gentle rain
Neither the distance or time we're apart
Can ever erase your love from my heart...
