POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write mostly dark poetry, some with disturbing twists.
Her Only Escape
She curls up on the couch
Clutching her precious wine
Her wife looks on in worry
When she says she’s fine
But the memories of him
Drive her to the drink
And she just can’t stop
He’s pushed her to the brink
She tried to move on
To marry a woman so smart
But he keeps coming back
It’s tearing her apart
The nightmares remind her
Of abuse and pain
Many restless nights
But a smile she can feign
It’s been many years
And her health isn’t so good
It’s about time she stopped
If only she could
Her...
Clutching her precious wine
Her wife looks on in worry
When she says she’s fine
But the memories of him
Drive her to the drink
And she just can’t stop
He’s pushed her to the brink
She tried to move on
To marry a woman so smart
But he keeps coming back
It’s tearing her apart
The nightmares remind her
Of abuse and pain
Many restless nights
But a smile she can feign
It’s been many years
And her health isn’t so good
It’s about time she stopped
If only she could

Demons
Tight corsets
Hugging thin waists
And short skirts
Barely covering dignity.
Cooing sweet nothings
And distorted truths
From twisted smiles
And sharp tongues.
Talons piercing hearts
And ripping morals
Drawing crimson diamonds
And offering eternal torment.
Hugging thin waists
And short skirts
Barely covering dignity.
Cooing sweet nothings
And distorted truths
From twisted smiles
And sharp tongues.
Talons piercing hearts
And ripping morals
Drawing crimson diamonds

Suicide
Silent tongues scream out,
Proudly begging to be heard,
Distorted grins hide ignorance,
Sanity wavers from a beautiful word.
Heavy thoughts burn minds,
Shadowshide the sunny day,
Sweet pain releases frustrations,
Endless suffering fades away.
Proudly begging to be heard,
Distorted grins hide ignorance,
Sanity wavers from a beautiful word.
Heavy thoughts burn minds,
Shadowshide the sunny day,
Sweet pain releases frustrations,
Endless suffering fades away.

Sounds of War
Metal pounding against splintering bone,
Battered hearts hammering on bruised ribs,
Prayers muttered through broken teeth,
These are the sounds of war.
Tears splashing onto blistering wounds,
Acidic words bombarding hollow thoughts,
Screams echoing through scarred minds,
These are the sounds of war.
Whispering ghosts invading restless dreams,
Songs of lost hope lingering upon dry tongues,
Cries of innocence ripping through distorted perceptions,
These are the sounds of war.
Battered hearts hammering on bruised ribs,
Prayers muttered through broken teeth,
These are the sounds of war.
Tears splashing onto blistering wounds,
Acidic words bombarding hollow thoughts,
Screams echoing through scarred minds,
These are the sounds of war.
Whispering ghosts invading restless dreams,
Songs of lost hope lingering upon dry tongues,
Cries of innocence ripping through distorted perceptions,
These are the sounds of war.

Desperation
Eyes of black
A soul to match
Voices screaming
Numbed feelings
Steel hearts
Tortured minds
Burning insanity
Clawing desperation.

Numbed feelings
Steel hearts
Tortured minds
Burning insanity
Clawing desperation.

Do you not see?
Do you not see my fuse is short?
Do you not see my tongue is sharp?
Do you not see my patience is low?
Do you not see my mind is perfect?
Do you not see my insanity is misjudged?
Do you not see my thoughts are genius?
Do you not see my bodyis restless?
Do you not see my knife is thirsty?
Do you not see the bloodycorpse?
Do you not see my tongue is sharp?
Do you not see my patience is low?
Do you not see my mind is perfect?
Do you not see my insanity is misjudged?
Do you not see my thoughts are genius?
Do you not see my bodyis restless?
Do you not see my knife is thirsty?
Do you not see the bloodycorpse?

Betrayal
Let me be held one last time
In the comforting arms of sanity
And leave me not in the claws of this creature
That rips into my mind so ravenously
Hungry for yet more of what I can no longer offer.
For to be betrayed by sweet temptation
Leaves a bitter taste upon the tongue of rich words
And icy lies that pierce me as viciously
As did the blade in my blackened heart
Of which you created from selfish greed.
I see why anger clouded my mind no longer
Yet why is the air thickening so?
My breath is becoming shallow
And the darkness is...
In the comforting arms of sanity
And leave me not in the claws of this creature
That rips into my mind so ravenously
Hungry for yet more of what I can no longer offer.
For to be betrayed by sweet temptation
Leaves a bitter taste upon the tongue of rich words
And icy lies that pierce me as viciously
As did the blade in my blackened heart
Of which you created from selfish greed.
I see why anger clouded my mind no longer
Yet why is the air thickening so?
My breath is becoming shallow
And the darkness is...

Dance in Destruction
Dance in destruction
As you whisper damned screams.
Shy from delivering light
And kill innocent hope.
Join crowds of outcasts
And embrace hellish glares.
Listen to voices in your head
As you obey clawing evil.
There is no salvation
For the likes of you.
Become dark angels
And create armies of death.
Surrender beating black hearts
And steal the night's shadows.
Crumble pride and possessions
And redeem this world.
Dance in destruction
As you whisper damned screams.

And kill innocent hope.

Listen to voices in your head

Become dark angels
And create armies of death.
Surrender beating black hearts
And steal the night's shadows.
Crumble pride and possessions
And redeem this world.
Dance in destruction

The Cost of Friendship
I did not lend an ear
When you needed me the most.
I lent you my bleeding heart
As you wept shards of pain.
I did not hold my sharp words back
When you needed to drown in noise.
I sat with you for long summers
As we laughed off our problems.
I did not knock on your door
When you needed to be alone.
I gazed at winter's icy touch
As my mind drifted to you.
I did not speak to you for hours
When you needed soothing silence.
I lay on the sparkling grass with you
As the stars shone against the dark.
I did not get a...

Bride of the Bloody Moon
Now the black roses are in bloom,
And the thorns can weep red gems,
And the night's darkness surrounds you,
To caress you with evil's arms,
Be the bride of the bloody moon,
And dance in the flickering shadows,
As the wolves' condemned howling,
Echoes in your nightmares,
In thiseverlasting plea of anguish.
And the thorns can weep red gems,
And the night's darkness surrounds you,
To caress you with evil's arms,
Be the bride of the bloody moon,
And dance in the flickering shadows,
As the wolves' condemned howling,
Echoes in your nightmares,
In thiseverlasting plea of anguish.

Eyes of the Sea
Eyes of the sea
Hold painful memories
In the shape of scars
That are torn across
Those muscles developed
At too young an age.
Those hands have snatched
The soul of many a man
And now faced with an army
That seeks vengeance in blood
Yet their target is blurred
With deceit and lies
Just as the judgement was.
Push through the fog so dark
And realise what has been done
For the child awaiting the wrath
Of the grieving soldiers
Is not the one to seek.

For the child awaiting the wrath
Of the grieving soldiers

Pantheras
You are evil,
The embodiment of sins
Yet you love it, don’t you?
Those claws,
Stained with innocent blood,
Do not seem to be cleansed
Of the stench of wrongdoing,
Those teeth,
Always show in that smile of yours,
Eager for the meal to come.
Eyes as black as your soul
Hidden behind the sunglasses
You seem so fond of.
Who is it this time?
That young girl whose veins pulse
With that blood you seek,
You crave?
Or what about her?
Her long blonde hair
Flowing down her exposed back
The dress hugging her body, her...
The embodiment of sins
Yet you love it, don’t you?

Stained with innocent blood,
Do not seem to be cleansed

Always show in that smile of yours,
Eager for the meal to come.

Hidden behind the sunglasses
You seem so fond of.
