I am a poet with two books published. I am posting two of my poems hoping singers will be interested in recording them as songs. All of my writing is copyrighted. Email me at gallen62@telus.net ......Gary

Consumed Why don ’ t we drink until we drown our sorrow?
Raise our crystal glasses to a new tomorrow

Cry all the tears still trapped inside
Struggle to get our hands untied

The scent of summer roses so bittersweet
Remove our masks so we finally can meet

Bolt the doors to the spirits of the night
Dance with me in the flickering candlelight

Feed the hunger that lives deep within
Where my flesh ends your touch begins

You play the music and I will keep time
While we make love to another glass of wine

Form our connection under the moon and stars
Time to discover exactly who and what we are

Seal any doubt with your fiery kiss
A recreation on earth of heavenly bliss

Free our hearts so they can now take flight
Crossing all the boundaries of an endless night

Light our torches before the impending dawn
Awaited each other ’ s sensual embrace far too long

Let the effect of the grape nectar take its toll
Allow our united passion to consume us whole

Nocturna She owns a ferocious appetite
Devouring anything in her sight

In her presence holy crosses burn
She enters a room and tables turn

She conceals a soul as dark as night
A malevolent spirit on a midnight flight

Can turn a good man into a slave
Guides any fool to an early grave

Consumes all objects of her desires
And leaves them to burn in hell fire

In seclusion she slips her painted skin
Revealing to her mirror a beast that dwells within

Black satin sheets in a coffin shaped bed
Sleeps by day at night she wakes the dead

To call her wicked would be too kind
She ’ s a vampire of both heart and mind

Opens doors to a sinner ’ s final temptation
Lighting the way to their final destination
