Breathing fire, icey cold
down my back, and into my soul..

You screwed me over, done me wrong
beneath the dirt is where you belong..

When you see satan, tell him I say hi!
Give god a kiss for me and tell him goodbye..

So now you'll sit, unil you hear the bell
and when you see those flames..you know you're in hell..

Your Leaving Party.


Your kiss like venom,
soft and sweet.
My heart beats loud,
you don't hear a thing.

It's too bright in here,
to see your lies.
My eyes are dried,
spilling over, as I cry.

You walk out the door,
you hold me close.
I feel you'll stay,
knowing you want to go.

Too Much

I hate too much,
I smile too much,
I hate that I always feel a demand,
To smile at everyone and everything.

I love too much,
I crave too much,
I love what I crave, I crave love,
But the continuous craving sends love away.

I want too much,
I waste too much,
I waste any chance of getting what I want,
Wanting anything is therefore a waste.

I need too much,
I force too much,
I need to feel a force behind me, supporting me,
But the need to protect myself from any force takes away my support.

I hate too much,
I trust too much,
I hate that I always trust in who and what I shouldn’t,
And then finish trusting in my hate excessively.

I love too much,
I cry too much,
I have become accustomed to knowing how it feels to cry,
And so, to love and to keep to what you know, means I cry at even love.


I loved this truly it was a great contrast of things and still true =)

I Bid You Adieu.


There is snow on the ground,
and it's blanketing you.
I should dig you a hole,
but I really don't want to.

The sun on my back
leaves me dripping sweat,
as I drag your body
away from it.

As much as I hate you,
I have respect for the dead.
You know I really did love you,
I just didn't show it.

This rain on my face,
washes you out of my hair.
As the wind on my skin
chafes my flesh til it tears.

I would kiss you goodbye,
but flowers work, too.
Rolling you into the ground,
I bid you adieu.

I Dream Awake    

When I walk
I sleep
I recall your voice
I try to keep
its talk
so sweet
I just can't wait
to meet
the apple maid
in the valley
of an offbeat
to stray
down your one way
street
come what may
we can stand elite
there is no pay
its all for free
I'm awake
in our dream to be
I'm your cake
your the cream
of me
the world may quake
but you'll not shake me
others can take their
fakery
theres a sky of rouge
in eternity
love light pools
on a solar kissed tree
a sunset prism
rains its colourful glee
magical dust covers
you and me
so place some trust
in our possibility .

Saturn Spins    

There's a shadow of you
and it's in my soul
all thoughts they brew
and do go untold
you have to break through
for to quench the cold
make all the faulse true
and a coward so bold .

Silver spoon , typhoon's
the air that's fed
I breathe in your life blood
alone I'm dead
your lightning it walks through
the cloudy beds
it forks and corkscrews
my wine bottle head .

Saturn is spinning , above from this place
Ayo the moon is where , I stand and face
a vision of you
off this world out of pace
I need to be soon
one with you , no mistakes  

Step with me
to out of reach
to swirling worlds
of windy leaves ,
drown my spirit
in your sun
I have no limit
with you there's none .








poet Anonymous


Is there ever a goodbye in hello,
A way home on a leaving road
A front ways tow
A yes in a No
An answer in I don't know
How can you listen, yet not hear
How can you flee each time I'm near
Be so far yet sound so clear
Hurt me and yet be so dear
Am I here..
It's clear as it all fades
Let it be, because it aint.

I Shouldn't Love To Hate And I Shouldn't Hate To Love

Something came over me it got me going under
I know exactly what I want but I'm still left to wonder
Are you the one or are you one of many?
A question mark in need of an answer if any
I'm impatiently waiting for a honest reply
Then I have to determine is it the truth or a lie
I'm not saying I don't trust you but I don't trust my judgement
I've paid the price for love now my heart's on a budget
Now I'm so lost should I go left or go right?
My emotions running deep but my thoughts are taking flight
We're total complete opposites we're like day and night
I'm trapped in the dark please bring me into the light
The yin to my yang the joy to my pain
The sun to my rain the heart to my brain
The spring to my winter the outline to my center
The strength to my weakness I'm the student you're the mentor
So teach me how to love and I'll learn not to hate
Teach me not to hold back and I'll learn to reciprocate
Giving you hell for being an angel sent from above
I shouldn't love to hate and I shouldn't hate to love

I Don't Deserve To Deserve You

Sometimes I feel like I don't even deserve you
You always value me even though I'm not worth you
You always make me happy even though I always hurt you
You always been straight with me while I'm always running circles
Around your heart and making your head spin
But through it all you still somehow manage to wear a grin
You weathered the storm through my emotional whirlwind
You put up with my shit I just can't comprehend
Why won't you leave me for somebody else?
I sometimes wonder if you love yourself
You're settling I'm slacking we both need help
I put your love next to your self esteem on the shelf

Sometimes I wonder if you know I don't deserve you
My acts of creulty doesn't seem to phase or disturb you
Maintaining your composure because patience is a virtue
Blue skies in your world while mine's are shades of purple
Dark and misty but still you stay with me
I give you a rough time you still embrace me gently
Since we've been together you never once dissed me
I can say some foul shit and you still would want to kiss me
Finally if you decide to tell me goodbye
And just leave my side I think I would die
There's no way to hide my urges to cry
You tried to provide and I didn't even try

Why won't you leave me for somebody else?
I sometimes wonder if u love yourself
You're settling I'm slacking we both need help
I put your love next to your self esteem on the shelf
Sometimes I feel like I don't even deserve you
Sometimes I wonder if you know I don't deserve you
