POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I used to be a good writer in my own mind I guess. Something died inside me when I lost my whole family and I tried to commit suicide. If you can love, love hard.

Malice in Wonderland
( I swear by my sin-loving soul
I can taste your sins all over me)
I see broken angels
With splintered halos
I'm the serpent
Swallowed by the sun
My gentle obsession with
Corrupt nutrition
I can taste the madness
Dripping from your tongue
Between the spaces to
Scratch the itch
My sins of excess
Prove to me that i exist
My lip drip
Secrets of the flesh
I can't help myself
SWEET TOOTH
Seduced by my obsession
I'll build my own religion
So i can...

On Fire
Tell me what i have to change. Who would i have to be. To slip in your arms, for you to make sweet love to me. Must i climb the highest cliff, swim along the ocean floor, crawl over broken glass, would you demand i do moreż
Could you take me as i, with my issues and my flaws. Pull me to your chest without hesitation or a pauseż
Slide your hungry tongue between my parted lips. Run your anxious fingers along my quivering hips. Wrap me in your passion, expose every need. Press your stramy lips to mine, every secret freed. Sprinkle your tears across my cheek, confess every desire. ...

When l love is a scar ( revisited )
My scars on my wrists
Are nothing but deep thoughts
You say it's no more than a cry for help
I try to find faith in you
It's a slap in the face
And a big fuck you
You tear me down
And say I'm a freak
Even when I do nothing
Not even speak
For I can not cry
For my sins
Everytime were together
It always begins
I cut myself to relieve
The pain
You see only one thing wrong
Nothing less than insain
You give nothing to my despair
To live or die
You do not care
Burry me under a dead...

Emotionally Broken
The day as dark as hell;
Closed as an open clam shell.
Asleep but awful awake;
Bought but stolen to take.
Lying but it's stating a fact;
Proact instead of react.
Speaking but no words;
Moving away but walking towards.
Premature ejaculation; incomplete thought;
Losing a war that was never fought.
Standing but bowing down;
Standing on your head to make a frown.
A tattoo without history;
Loving you without me.
Living life without a cause;
What do you think of when your thoughts pause.

Her sleepless nights
The darkness cascades around her as she sleeps; another sleepless night. Tossing and turning for no one fills her arms; nothing to drape her leg across.Yet she still welcomes the night. Only to wake time on end to see if there is absolutely a void in her eyes. Is it fear? A restless heart? A wondering mind, or just afraid to miss something? Only she will know the answer when it comes to her.
What comes to her as she slumbers? An unknown fear or the fear she knows, but hides away from her sight. She lains there a just plain wonders why is it she can not rest as she wants. Even the...

Help me...
Help me...I'm gone without a soul;
No where left to hide, no where left to go.
I've been lost and searched for my life;
It seems that all I've found was strife.
Pain, loneliness, sadness, and disspair.
Been around people that I thought that they would care.
Help me...I'm gone and can't find my way;
Awaken many hours, but it feels like the same fucking day.
No light at the end of this tunnel;
Life's little shit hole funnel.
Help me...I was thought as once a gift;
Now I'm just something that lays a drift.
Don't pick me up or...
No where left to hide, no where left to go.
I've been lost and searched for my life;
It seems that all I've found was strife.
Pain, loneliness, sadness, and disspair.
Been around people that I thought that they would care.
Help me...I'm gone and can't find my way;
Awaken many hours, but it feels like the same fucking day.
No light at the end of this tunnel;

I am
Please...see me for who I am;
I am nothing more than this.
Not gold, not silver; or diamonds and pearls;
I am just me...that's all.
I could be anything you want me to be;
I could be the man of your dreams.
The knight in shinning armor;
A modern day Robbin Hood.
If you see none of this now...
I am not who you think I am.
I can't be what you want,
And who I really am.
So...if you want/need me to be your only;
You only have to do is see me;
I can only be me at one time.
If you can't see anything that I have been...
I am nothing more than this.
Not gold, not silver; or diamonds and pearls;
I am just me...that's all.
I could be anything you want me to be;
I could be the man of your dreams.
The knight in shinning armor;
A modern day Robbin Hood.
If you see none of this now...
I am not who you think I am.
I can't be what you want,
And who I really am.
So...if you want/need me to be your only;

Stalemate
Stalemate
Saline tears fall from red eyes;
Like a rebellion in heaven: firer skies.
Lost emotion: a distress call within;
Was loving you my mistaken sin?
Tortured mind of twisted thought;
Never really to know what I truly sought.
Passing hands and footprints in sands of tide;
Pushing my true feelings to the side.
Lost; so lost with no direction in sight;
Why must I continue to pronounce love in golden light.
Leaving my soul for someone to find;
It's up for sale for someone kind.
Broken, crushed, battered and torn;...

SOS same old shit
Melancholy is the disposition of this day;
I had nothing to hear; they had nothing to say.
Progression only buy the ticking hand;
Falling deeper in pools of quicksand.
Why am I falling so deep?
When I have sheltered; depression still does creep.
I'm not myself today at all;
I will not reply to any bodies call.
I just want to be left all alone;
Madness I'm left here it's all I have been shown.
Today is the day I want to go away;
But then again it's like any other day.
Feeling as life is over cumbersome;
Not...

Past, Present, and Future
Past, present, future.
I look at the pictures that you have sent;
Remembering how much our love meant.
We had our ups and downs;
We had our smiles and our frowns.
To look at them and see what I thought had lost;
Remembering everything from the music of Alison Krauss.
What it was like to hold your hand;
As we walked amoungest this land.
The sweet kisses that we gave;
To even the cross in which you still save.
This is something awful old, but still so new;
It still feels the same when I say " I love you!".
All of the times...

Just a kiss
.kissing you for hours was not because my lips were dry;
but because i wanted them to be wet by yours.
( a beautiful woman told me this, and she can see that her words are beautiful too)

The Alpha and the Beta
The Alpha and the Beta
Seeing you, holding you, only to kiss you;
Now that the rush has been true.
Did you dive in the water with your feet first?
Did my lips quench your thirst?
Now that I'm here, and your there;
Is there anything left to bare?
Say something to me please;
You got me groveling on my knees!
Just a soft sound of you the alpha;
Take charge of I the beta.
Feed my soul with you words of temptation;
Finish this act of consummation.
I beg of you to hear the words I speak of;
Why...
