A POET’S PEN
Well… here we are again,
Your slender body engulfed by the warm embrace of my staunch!
Your perfectly proportioned frame, poised with anticipation…
You await my lead,
As though we’re dancers, locked in an ever increasing trance…
Our bodies pressed together, as we effortlessly glide along the river side.
Or maybe like angels, flying through the vast firmament at night,
Sharing sultry kisses between the moon and dim lit stars.
We’ve always known who we are…
Where we are…
Why we are…
We exist to manifest our purpose
And at the end of each story,
We loose at a little piece of ourselves…
A little ink, a little soul… a little life;
But it’s worth it,
My happy ending!

About the Book
This book reflects Onyx's many deep, intimate and personal thoughts and is definitely not a book for the weak at heart! Each poem is filled with passion and clearly invites the reader to take a glance at his thoughts, without compromising one's own interpretation. It is very suggestive, compelling and refreshingly explicit. An open-mind and parental discretion is advised.
About the Author
Being the youngest born to a family of five, Onyx suffered the lost of his mother at the age of four. His father, a touring musician at the time, provided for his family financially, as one of his sisters stepped in to fill the equally vital role of guardian/mother. Onyx would often cry out and ask his brothers and sisters for their mother's return…but they themselves, overcome with confusion and overwhelming emotions, could not offer an explanation that would stop the questions or pacify a child's longing for his mother.
Becoming introverted, Onyx eventually turned to poetry as a means of escape from his grim reality, but also found glimpses of his mother there. Words are powerful and transforming. They can provide light in the darkest of caves or cradle one to the arms of death…Onyx hopes for us to view poetry as a beautiful gift, which allows us to find ourselves and inspire others along the way.
