Nightmare From Hell
In my nightmares
I see myself
pounding my oldest
brother's face into
the concrete to the
point where I can't stop
I wake up pissed off
At the whole freaking world
Taking my anger out
on everyone including
My famiy which
isn't good for my soul
I see myself
pounding my oldest
brother's face into
the concrete to the
point where I can't stop
I wake up pissed off
At the whole freaking world
Taking my anger out
on everyone including
My famiy which
isn't good for my soul

Somnambulist
Awake sweet dreamer
Your unrest is at an end
No longer will you hide behind your hazy mist covered sheer
Your sadness has outgrown its sphere
Whilst you have chosen to be mute
The universe has given it a voice you will not/can not silence
Tears of sorrow hidden behind your veil will rain down
To wash away the hurt and sate the thirst of your ruptured soul
Ethereal you appear, so fragile and gossamer
Yet your strength, like the spiders web
Is sorrowfully underestimated by the fly
...
Your unrest is at an end

To wash away the hurt and sate the thirst of your ruptured soul
Ethereal you appear, so fragile and gossamer
Yet your strength, like the spiders web

Beksinski's Curse
I awaken with a sudden gasp,
As a silent scream escapes my lips.
My heart beats heavy in my chest:
A dream, into reality, slips.
The hairs are raised upon my back,
As my body aches with fright;
I sit there petrified, awake...
Alas! Another sleepless night.
I cannot sleep in peace, it seems,
As I'm haunted by these hellish scenes,
That creep into my deepest dreams,
And tear me at my weakest seams.
And so, I paint the perfect picture,
Like a photograph for the world to...
As a silent scream escapes my lips.
My heart beats heavy in my chest:
A dream, into reality, slips.
The hairs are raised upon my back,
As my body aches with fright;
I sit there petrified, awake...
Alas! Another sleepless night.
I cannot sleep in peace, it seems,
As I'm haunted by these hellish scenes,
That creep into my deepest dreams,
And tear me at my weakest seams.
And so, I paint the perfect picture,
Like a photograph for the world to...

Midnight's Glory~with the beautiful Sky_dancer
I call upon the winds
stir danger inside me
as I cast onyx fire
Let me be her shield,
as she gathers hurricanes,
let me be her eye
we come together today in sacred understanding
hex upon hex let us taste the aether
nothing wicked this way comes
as we flex in the eternal void
seers over the dimensional rifts we conjure
we who live in the darkness,
among the shadows,
drawn to darkness.
We are twin flames,
luminaries, bright in our deep red fire
spirits of the freckled dawn ...
stir danger inside me
as I cast onyx fire
Let me be her shield,
as she gathers hurricanes,
let me be her eye
we come together today in sacred understanding
hex upon hex let us taste the aether
nothing wicked this way comes
as we flex in the eternal void
seers over the dimensional rifts we conjure
we who live in the darkness,
among the shadows,
drawn to darkness.
We are twin flames,
luminaries, bright in our deep red fire
spirits of the freckled dawn ...

When demons come to call
When demons come to call
Always when you're by yourself, quite often late at night, when darkness is all around you and it seems a endless night
You feel a dark surround you, it wraps you in its cloak, suffering with depression, really is no joke
The pain of hurt crushes you, memories flood your brain, all the sadness turns to tears, you want to stop the pain
Tears roll down your face, you're hurt and all alone, even though you know theres help always on the phone
You pull the covers over you, you try to hide your head, anything to chase...
Always when you're by yourself, quite often late at night, when darkness is all around you and it seems a endless night
You feel a dark surround you, it wraps you in its cloak, suffering with depression, really is no joke
The pain of hurt crushes you, memories flood your brain, all the sadness turns to tears, you want to stop the pain
Tears roll down your face, you're hurt and all alone, even though you know theres help always on the phone

Save Me
I'm standing in the middle
Of a crowd, feeling alone,
I am shouting out, over and over,
But all of my pleas are silent
No one can hear my pain,
I feel like I need to break away
I am running, but I cannot move
How do I run away from myself
So many faces judging me
When I am still just a stranger
I am finding misery in my pain,
I am becoming afraid of myself
Where is my redemption
I can feel myself continue to fall
deeper and deeper into my darkness
I cannot stand one more...
Of a crowd, feeling alone,
I am shouting out, over and over,
But all of my pleas are silent
No one can hear my pain,
I feel like I need to break away
I am running, but I cannot move
How do I run away from myself
So many faces judging me
When I am still just a stranger
I am finding misery in my pain,
I am becoming afraid of myself
Where is my redemption
I can feel myself continue to fall
deeper and deeper into my darkness
I cannot stand one more...

JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE
Through trails and tribulations we will go through something's that we will never totally understand, as we may never truly understand as it is lessons that we must learn, for that is the journey of life with lessons to learn. That sometimes changes how we see and live within the depth of our lives. For sometimes we may encounter stumbling blocks, stopping us from going anywhere in our lives whether its forward sometimes just leaving us to go backwards. Yet that shouldn't be the case nor should it matter how you achieve your goals, for ask thyself what is fear for it is only a subconscious...

Hollow Me
Rip out my guts through my cervix
pull out my bones
leave no flesh inside
ragdolled
hollow the space
fill me with you
flood me
keep close as we sleep
hover over my lifeless body
my incubus
waiting over my bed
watching me sleep
even when it hurts
like the nick of the needle
against my engorged veins
a tourniquet around my neck
piece my mouth, bulbous and swollen lipped
suck my eyes from their sockets
fill the wells with thick semen
and when my hollow body is full of you
breathe into me
and...
pull out my bones
leave no flesh inside
ragdolled
hollow the space
fill me with you
flood me
keep close as we sleep
hover over my lifeless body
my incubus
waiting over my bed
watching me sleep
even when it hurts
like the nick of the needle
against my engorged veins
a tourniquet around my neck
piece my mouth, bulbous and swollen lipped
suck my eyes from their sockets
fill the wells with thick semen
and when my hollow body is full of you
breathe into me
and...

My Demon
This demon in me
Is no dormant creature
If it exists at all
Then he lives through whispers
Like secret messages
Tapped over the airwaves
The words pulse
Straight to my brain
He knows my weakness
Constant reminders of failure
There’s no peaceful retreat
From the mental assault
In nightmares
I see the glint in red eyes
The glint of cold hard steel
About to slice skin
I’m sure if I bled
That would never be enough
A slow torturous death
His only satisfaction ...
Is no dormant creature
If it exists at all
Then he lives through whispers
Like secret messages
Tapped over the airwaves
The words pulse
Straight to my brain
He knows my weakness
Constant reminders of failure
There’s no peaceful retreat
From the mental assault
In nightmares
I see the glint in red eyes
The glint of cold hard steel
About to slice skin
I’m sure if I bled
That would never be enough
A slow torturous death
His only satisfaction ...
