leave me to fade into yesterdays
of moonlight and limbs entwined
fleeting temptation we couldn’t deny
to pleasure we yielded and dined
savouring the lick of heat in our veins
our senses and touch ablaze
breathing in feverish scents awash
we tumbled in lusty forays
yet written in stardust our names were not
a moment’ry madness’ delight
the draw of the silvery moonlit skies
that offered a carnal respite
and in my mind’s eye i lie in your arms
that wasn’t our dream to dream
i bid you farewell on this dying night breeze
remember me as a dream

a dream that keeps me warm...very sensual...
Ooooooo that picture alone captivates me Shadow! Thank you for a powerful poem! Blessings dear one.
A well lived moment with no regrets. May they all be thus appointed Shadow.
Oh my goodness Shadow. I think this is your BEST EVER!!!!! Seriously.
Just stunning writing Shadow. And evocative like a dream...
Shadow this is sad, yet loving and beautiful -- "savouring the lick of heat in our veins" i LOVE this line, what an enduring way to say goodbye ...
warm smiles,
Your words sing a song of memory and mystery to me, Shadow. Beautiful!
Very nice
A fleeting memory to revisit in the dream world
I'm sure there are going to be times when a moment or two passes
But those moments that come and go (one maybe two)
That one that might happen but will never be more than two
For there will only be one moment in time
all other moments my thoughts are of you lovely shadow
so you see it's that one moment not that I be able to forget
everything else will forever remain
I cannot forget all those moments I remember them all
each moment you made special your essence made special
thank you for being you lovely shadow i thank you
thank you
A sad one. Hope all is well Shadow.
So spoken as she slipped below the surface--my goodness, that is awesome!

Margaret will you please take me home
they say as in them
I hear them screaming but I only
repeat it softly
slowly
monotone
Margaret-please-take-me-home

what do you feel
share your feelings...
your memeroys are more unresistable for me than mine ones .
your writing ......
Oh SHADOW I read this as soul-sharing, soul-baring time in our blog world. Even so...
SO beautifully written. This is the second time I've used the word EXQUISITE to describe a blog post.
WHEW!
Sad and beautiful.
Your poetry always touches my heart.
Thank you!!
It's like a dreamed affair, or one which can only now be dreamt about... sensual and warmmmmm-
Wow...if you aren't published...you definitely should be. Your poetry is amazing! (:
Sounds like a one nighter but one to learn by.
I need a cold shower.
Girl your poetry always amazes me
fantastic. I had to read this one several times... and it just kept getting better. I love it.
I do just plain love your poetry.
we had the same dream -
how interesting - :)
you give me laughter too!
this was fun to read and
fun to comment on!
And how delightful is this forbidden love! I could hear these words inside my heart.
So heartfelt. A bittersweet farewell, no doubt.
I like the sensuality here. Well done Shadow! You're consistently coming up with some great poetry. Keep them coming!!!
Oh, God! Such a sweet and moving farewell. I love it!
Once again capturing the essence of the moment of forbidden fruit; 'that wasn't our dream to dream'.
And the memory will remain, as a dream. Nice.
I get soooo lost in your words sometimes...Thanks for the escape!

Your writing never disappoints!
I wish someone would write for me that way,,,,

"...and dined savouring the lick of heat in our veins..."
This is such a delightful line, love it! Interesting how people come and go in our lives, some leave such a remarkable impression, even when they're gone.
Happy New Year, Shadow. :))
Guess we all need a bit of harmless escapism just at the moment. The best of its kind. Well done.
your words are SO alive <3
what a touching poem!
Blimey Shadow fourty two comments you are getting a big following now soon I will be seeing your poems in major bookstores.
Really had probs in 2009 my 5th year just staying in the moment problem with me my mind is always straying off into weird worlds of magic pixies.
Beuatiful poems, I have been reading them imprisoned here at my despatch desk watching the snow flurries out of the window, brick sales are quiet this time of year.
Happy new year and its good to be back in blogworld again after being away with the fairys for so long...
This poem conjures up someone in particular for me. Beautiful.
Beautiful and familiar thoughts. You are so gifted!
Such a beautiful poetry again with a dream in it...
Joliieess:)
this is outstanding..the lick of heat in our veins? WOW.
I love the romance of this writing! You took me to a place .... that is what good writing does!
To be remembered thus would be beautiful. I know of dreams that are not mine to dream. Your poem captures it beautifully.
I love the words, Shadow. Very intimate. And the picture is very captivating, too.
Happy New Year to you. :)
Such beauty and passion in your words, Shadow. Love it!
Shadow- no, I'm sorry. It's not enough anymore. I've had one too many parties on carnal Lane, I want the stardust. Written by your words. ~rick
Wow....
This brings back to many memories of too many ex's. Make me never want to go back in time...
Nice to see on your profile you're also from SA.

sorry so late in reading, but a joy to read...

Beautifully expressed!
I was wondering if you have always known you wanted to be a writer?
Oh jeese,some of our most memorable "encoungers" happen in our dreams..lol.Not such a bad thing really.
I love this line Shad'...
"yet written in stardust our names were not"
It has seemed for a very long time that you know more than you possibly could. Deep down and under.
