Phantom Lover

Perfection on earth, an impossibility, illusion

Yet, here in my eden, she blossoms nightly

Creating irreproachable, nocturnal rainbows

Roses are red, violets are blue and she's perfect

~\*/~

His jealousy's shadow overthrows his patience

Thanatos, his army soon surround my spirit

Proclaiming, Hear ye! King of darkness speaks

Destiny has judge you, guilty sentence

~\*/~

Sword drawn, tears blown, protection vowed

But no match was she for Lucifer's demons

Akhilleus! She screamed, leave me not, stay

 Spirit strayed, breath stolen, cold body held

~\*/~

Charon carries me across, victory exalted

Colorless tears on a ghost's face, I eluded

Now a rebel phantom sneaking out of hell

To secretly rendezvous with my princess

~\*/~

Invisible, my arrival is anticipated and felt

Feeble whisper of my name, still she sleeps

Bedside, I marveled at her astonishing stunner

My perfect lover, demise and faithful soulmate

~\*/~

Warm smile floats, she reacts to sultry touch

Inch by inch her body explored, kiss bliss

Black rose on her pillow confirms my visit

She bathes in a pool of her strawberry juices

~\*/~

His imperfections deprive me of life, not love

Green-eyed monster, love, you shall never know

My souls and hers are forever intertwined DNA

Perfection will reclaim her love, Phantom lover

Rapadoo,

Let Love Grow

As long as there is you,

Angelical rhythm of my heart,

My everlasting source of inspiration,

Our love will grow

*_*

As long as there is your radiant smile

Binging about a full moon every time

triggering every sense of amazement,

Our love will grow

*_*

As long as there is your craziness

Unique moments of true freedom

Building unforgettable halls of memory,

Our love will grow

*_*

As long as there is your happiness

Life's sweetest reward of merit

Constant trips down the aisle of humor,

Our love will grow

*_*

Rapadoo,

My Paradise

Oh! How I yearn roaming my paradise

Where tranquil breezes caress my neck

As birds whisper lover’s sweet melodies

Hair on my body bend to your touch

Like coconut trees drunk on the wind

Like algae hypnotized by ocean waves

Hasten the sunset, my Shangri-la calls

Passionate chases of white footprints

Genuine laughter, so naïve, so infantile

Irresistible Venus de Milo, my nirvana

Voluptuous butterfly lips enticingly wet

Faithful clock lost its count, mesmerized

Suns shamelessly hide behind ocean lines

Witnessing lucent moon’s magical dance

Aborning here in my arms, my paradise

rapadoo,

Mannequin She

At winter garden across our window

Nightmares hunt palm trees and snow

Sleeping on the rigid river, drooling

**\/**

Here under these ebony comforters,

Cold passion rejects sparks of desire

As our stereo every rhapsodic tune

**\/**

She feels nothing like a cold statue

But how frigid and dismissive she is

Her blank stare frozen on the ceiling

**\/**

Shards of untold chronicles of deceit

Decorates our room and bed of rocks

Forbidden secrets cast out of Eden

**\/**

Pillows of thorns crowning my skull,

Maybe I should have worn a helmet;

She ate the keys to my handcuffs

Rapadoo,

Drowning

Naturally, I became the falling rain

Gushing down like infuriated bees

Seeking to inflict maximum reprisals

Inside the dreams of her betrayals

~~!~~

But eventually the rain is the pain

Forty days and forty nights of acid

Deteriorating any signs of benevolence

Spilling my pride into endless ripples

~~!~~

Then suddenly more pain yields no gain

My mind captures some roses, sinking

I see her face vanishing into my anguish

She’s a shooting star; I, a lunar eclipse 

~~!~~

Numbness obsesses over muddy emotions

Forbidding luminance of tomorrow’s sky

Now rain, pain are drawn to disdain

So naturally self-destruct, I drown

Rapadoo,

Perfect Romance

One hundred ordinary little fires

Teasing the unassertive and innocent night

A bed of roses stimulating anticipated moods

While massaging oils drip effortlessly

Drop after drop onto you sensitive skin

Compellingly redefining habitual curves

Creating narrow rivers of exotic sensations

Provoked by continuous motions of tenderness

Two hundred extraordinary magical lights

Double the emotions, double the expectations

Bubble of roses flirts with your seductive body

As scented candles generates royal comfort

A warm candlelight dinner served in blue

While funky saxophones and silky strings

Gently serenade the colorful night away

With a daring, formidable nocturnal dance

Three hundred vividly decorated words

Arranged in peculiar pattern, painting you

A see of roses carves our every footprint

Preludes a tender, innocuous teeth massage

Exploring your succulent body inch-by-inch

Convincingly converting obedient nerves

Our exhausted, yet determined and moist bodies

Melt extensively into the heated, eventful night

Rapadoo,

Surviving Spirit

Should light disappear

And darkness reign

Should stars lose altitude

And all planets doomed

Should life be consumed

And all hells break loose

On this, darkest of days

As long as you're in my heart,

I will survive

Should death pound my door

And strip my life away

Should my heart be compelled to stop

As I am robbed of my senses

Should forever my eyes close

As solitude claims my world

On this, most unthinkable of moments

As long as you're in my heart,

I will survive

Rapadoo,

Fallen

From the heavens

Galaxy to galaxy

into outer space

I have fallen

From the farthest planet

To the surface of earth

Into the heart of nature

I have fallen

Across the high mountains

Through the endless valleys

Along the deepest rivers

I have fallen

Into the soul of the forest

The center of the desert

To the bottom of the ocean

I have fallen

Into your infinite horizon of love

Your overwhelming strong spell

onto your sweet, tender caress

Fallen I have, my queen

In love.... In love with you

Rapadoo,

Outside Eden

I am my father’s son, yes
Expectations succumbed to satisfaction
The forbidden fruit sure was delicious
But unlike him, I am blaming no one.
Not my wife, serpent, not even I
My conscious choice willed freely
I am confident that grandpa knew
His rats wouldn’t just guard the cheese
Omnipotent! Omniscient! sure He knew.


The consequences are unforgiving though
Nakedness wrapped up in shame as promised
Anguishing life outside Eden, unbearable
Peeping through the pearly-white gates
Sometimes I wish I were the prodigal son
But out here, I have stockpiles of apples
Oh so scrumptiously satisfying
If grandpa were to wipe my slates clean
He would have to cut that damn tree down


I am my mother’s child indeed
Her wild side in me, I am adventurous
No bruise to prove broken laws’ claim,
But not knowing is an incurable disease.
I would blame the serpent too, but how can I
Mother touched fire now I know it burns
I also know how the flames can feed me
I shall venture on future waves prideful
Uncertain maybe, my choices nonetheless


Rapadoo,

I Swear

I love you, I swear

Body, mind, and soul I dare

I do said forever

For better or worse as we prepare

Our endless journey together

Up and down destiny's stairs

Like fish love water

I love you, I swear

Long-side the flawless rivers,

My love for you declared

Then into my eyes you stared

And expressed how much you cared

There we became a pair

With everlasting love to share

Like oxygen in the air,

I love you, I swear

To none dare I compare

You my sweet tender bear

As blue moons are you rare

Picturesque like spring flowers

Loving as you are fair

Trusting as you are square

All in all beware

I love you, I swear

Rapadoo,

Death Becomes Love

Death to thee, red rose
Thine petals swallow mine’s sunlight
Empty promises of protection deceives
Eden’s prophecy loses eternal delight
Now this tulip snows brownish leaves
And death becomes love

Love in a dozen,
Twelve bloody pieces of a broken heart
Love in a dozen,
Twelve sure ways for love to fall apart

Death to thine aroma, rose
Thine intrusion chokes mine’s oxygen
Releasing lethal gas of despair & hate
Incision through the soul as a surgeon
Senses of love now in comatose state
And death becomes love

Love by the dozen,
Twelve cutthroat jurors, guilty verdict
Love by the dozen,
Twelve consecutive lives, love a convict

Death to thine legacy, rose
In the arms of the wind youth marvels
Eagles in flight masters of the deep blue
Blood loyalty among offspring sparkles
Yet déjà vu’s predictions reveal but rue
And death becomes love


Rapadoo,

Jasmine

I discovered my sun 
hiding inside your smile. 
Rising, setting 
all that I have ever been 
Your killer eyes 
stained my fatalist mind
Reducing to ashes
all that I hoped to be
Ironical that my world
simply crashed
At the hands of your
intoxicating beauty


Rapadoo,

Misunderstood

Beyond the darkness immersing this grave,
Echoes of my black tears reach death valleys
Searching among shadows inhabiting this cave
Empathy’s hideout seems to be in death alleys

                                   ~!~

Sun’s allegiance to friendship’s loyalty was true
Atmosphere became thick with promises’ aroma
Even convinced star communities to pledge too
Yet inevitability befell him, dusk imposed his coma
                                   ~!~

Wrapped around the silence of this dead land
Stillness has stolen rhythm from my cold heart
Now an alien to Hade’s kingdom, my homeland
Understanding and I couldn’t grow further apart


Rapadoo,

Only if I Could

If only I could cry my way into depression’s kingdom
Myriads of joys would hide in every teardrop
Invading army with an annihilation command
Ensuring this freed sun victory over dark clouds
And implant auras of felicity in your inner core

If only I could live right into immortality’s palace
Swim alongside in zealous fountains of youth
Each pore on this cutis would pocket mouthfuls
Showering your pristine smile with ageless rain
And Renounce sadness’ desperate assaults

If only I could jump straight into space gigantic lap
Entice brightest stars with clever ambuscades
I would clay sculpture your own blue moon
Light source swallowing this darkness whole
And create buoyant spirits clearing your paths

If only I could sprint my way through time’s racetrack
Racing ancient clock, future, mulish destiny
Speed of light, my shoes, would outrun them
Altering their egos, predictably changing fates
And remove all obstacles shielding your happiness
Only if I could


Rapadoo,

Waterfall!

Cascading your essence over my world,
Your effervescent streams of seduction
With residual steams from the last storm
Syncretize incessantly on the hill top

Rainbows of sensation umbrella my sky
Perpetual showers of cloudless passions
Reach my core to drown my fantasies
I love you waterfall, my only obsession


Rapadoo,
