TRIO
My Black Knight
Metaphysic
To lie awake with you
Or, to sleep, I crave
My heart slows to a fatal beat in repose
My sea, my rain, my earth, my stars
My years fade no sound
But, fade my voice
You have gone grave
Tenderness buried beneath a-salt
On the flesh is experience
I thought, so
What is real?
No Knight beyond a window matters
My Knight in Shining Armour
Episteme
A motion in response to suffering
And Suffrage
And Sex
And Seclusion
Only a lesson in love can be so complete
And shelter a heart stone under blood pacts
An accomplice to com place to common place
And wan wanderlust
How could I know?
Be still a Knight with no view
My Stainless Knight
Ethic
You scold me
You bold thief
How to please you rightly
Before you go, a drift
One gaze should be so close, a gift
Troupe to stage play in-act
A fantasy for thee, three made for two, too
And you won, one
Still a-Miss in tone, and want to win you over
At last, then
How should I live?
A Knight watched alone is not courage
*********
I find myself in trio
Blame it on the fates
Claimed in the city
Under fire frocked gates, and still
Because after all, it inspires me
What other means do we
To get the chemicals moving
So I say unto thee
Let me be your warning
Only such a Lady
Finds herself in mourning
When You Were Mine 
I have to read this 1,000 times and still I find more meaning in each stanza. Really great Thanks
you know this is really fascinating writing. you have a unique style and an unusual tempo. I would go far enough to say you have created a completely original way of expressing yourself. i enjoy reading very much and i look forward to your next confession….i mean, creation.
Agreed! But Joy, don’t worry so much. You dwell too much on what you have done wrong in your relationships so you should spend more time being thankful and happy for the good things you were able to contribte to them. We all make mistakes and we have to forgive ourselves. I am sure “He” already has forgiven you.
you are so lovely
last year i got involved in a romance that changed me forever. we are not together anymore but he opened my eyes to how people can change in the blink of an eye. one minute they tell you everything is great only to find out they are not even the person you thought. i was so hurt but i realized you have to allow yourself to be open even if it means you can be hurt again. just not by the same person!!!! love you
