POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Never thought I'd want to be a poet. I have soooooo much to let go of. Seems like a more constructive way to get it all out than letting it go in negative ways. Lets see where poetry takes me.
Remnants
Vibrations from the Underworld ring through my bones.
Demon's blood splattered wildly across soft angelic white.
Doors shredded up in a psycopath's rage.
Hole punctured walls. Gaping portals from a fiery Hell.
Ink stains on wood still wreak with your sickening venomous lies.
Glass shards in the carpet from eons ago. Just piles of smashed memories, lumiscence, and Satan's cursed pipes. Reflecting a possessed light that cuts through my heart.
A hate so amplified.
You were killing me inside.
You...

Petals
Beautiful wildflower sways gently in the wind.
Petals shimmering in the twilight moon's silvery light.
She's my friend in the meadow. We've swayed through life together.
The wildflower's petals daintily unfold as a silhouette against the sunrise's golden glow.
Bees, hypnotized by the fire within, buzz around her waiting their chance.
Sweet, sweet nectar from a temptress so cold.
No bee is left out. They all take their turns. Touching and tasting the wildflower's parts. One bee never seeing another bee go.

Get Out
Get out.
Out of my head.
Out of my heart.
Out of my bed when I'm touching myself.
You didn't look back when you ripped me to shreds.
Left me in tears with a hole torn through my heart.
Told me you loved me, that I was the one.
Your vices I knew but I didn't care.
My love for you was truly sincere.
You twisted me up until I believed all the lies.
Then you were gone and it was all part of your diabolical plan.

Eden
Romeo exhales deeply into the crisp night's atmosphere.
Chemical effervescence saturates.
Another journey to Eden begins.
The path to Eden growing longer each time.
"I love you, Juliet. You're mine till the end. We'll always be partners through life."
Juliet cries but hides it all inside. She fears the storm she knows is so near.
Shadows lurk...
Laughing, taunting,
Seeding insidious manipulations into Romeo's core.
The shadows' lies fill him with a sickening hate that his...

Ending
I've sensed a change for quite some time
but I can't for certain tell.
I have a bad feeling about it all.
The aura is dim, no colors seep through.
Tonight there's a definite disturbance in the air.
It stands out like gangsta graffiti on a railroad car.
Comments made here and there,
flash like fireflies lighting up the dark sky,
make me wonder why I'm here.
This chapter of my life seems to be ending.
I don't know this for sure.
I hope not but the signs are getting brighter.
If words weren't taboo I'd ask you...

Worthless
Screams of pain.
Screams of rage.
These sounds shatter the night's icy air.
Tears flow hard.
My waterfall glistens by the light of the moon,
Droplets filled with nothing but shame.
Feel so helpless, so useless, so used.
Like a whore on the corner,
Except I paid for you.
Why the fuck do I beg to be abused?

Liar
Lewd little liar.
A pretty little thing.
Prancing around wielding false power.
Incubating torment is all that's in your head.
Thinking behind so you can plot your forward twist.
Knife in the back, again and again.
Always covering to suit yourself.
Abuse your special magic to get the rest to bow.
Nobody would dare think for themselves to catch you in your lies.
Like a queen abusing subjects,
It's all a bit sick.
Your sheep's clothing hides that wolf well.
What about your victims?
Doesn't even matter, does it?
So long as you remain...

Answers
I want answers
To the questions I have.
I'm stuck,
Like a fly on a gluestrip.
I can't move on.
Give me some answers so I understand.
Don't know what I did,
But maybe it's you
If I am not told,
I'll hope for the best.
If you want me to vanish
Just let me know.
Don't string me along,
Pretend you're a friend
I value what I thought we had.
My intentions truly are pure,
No ulterior motives here.
I'll hurt for a while,
But I'll move along.
I'll learn to treasure past times.
Right now it seems

When Night Comes
Daylight breaks across far off horizons.
Creates the grand master of all illusions.
Everything seems alright when lit up by golden light.
But the sun's glow fades and the dark cloak of night descends.
A honest day's work is over and done.
Time for our many vices to show.
"I'm going out with the boys to watch the game."
But he runs to his mistress and cheats on his wife.
She's home with the kids, almost at her wit's end.
They fight and yell and, oh, how she wishes she could slap them to hell.
She reaches up in the cupboard and throws back...

Bottle by Bottle
Another night seen a friendship wasted.
Drank it to death,
bottle by bottle.
Egos and pride that just can't be tamed.
Two of a kind,
stubborn and drunk.
Now two sit alone saying
"What the fuck?"
If I'd only have known what was to come,
I'd put every last bottle back on the shelf.

Here I Go Again
The lessons of life...
What could they mean?
I think I know then I'm screwed again.
Bipolar thoughts spin in my forever unsettled brain.
Which one is right? Are the rest really wrong?
Just when I feel comfy and all settled in,
POW!
Another punch in the head.
