Hello, this is me being bored today. My latest chapter of 'Masked Rose' is being a nuisance and refuses to finish off. So I took the opportunity to write a few poems that have been hanging around for a while.

So…yeah!

Love Taluliaka

Disclaimer: I'm not even sure I need a disclaimer for poetry. Oh well. Don't own POTO. However, I do own this poem, so back off!

Obsession

Dark notes drift skyward

Twined with the dusk

Haunting, solitary,

Night swirls, threaded with music.

Dark eyes close

Possessed by music

Long fingers spinning the melody

An echo of a lonely soul

Candlelight flickers,

Shuddering lines across your dreaming stance

At last at peace in darkness

Where light flees from your face

Will anyone ever see this side,

Beauty beneath the pain?

Those who hear the music

Drifting up from a land of night

Shift in their sleep

And their dreams

Change.
