POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm home, in school, and at peace! What a wonderful place to be. Thank you all for having me.
Bullet-blasts of wisdom piercing holes in the soul
For one brief moment in time
I danced with my dream
And now,
All I want to do
Is go back to sleep.
I was but a moment of her life...
Nameless...Faceless...
But she left a permanent mark;
On my hard beating heart.
A shadow on the memory of paradise.
What once were wild energies;
Enveloped in wondrous reveries,
Are now cauterized gashes;
On a heart turning to ashes;
By attempts to lobotomize memories.
With my third eye pried open wide...
The vantablack void sucks the stars from the sky;
like...
I danced with my dream
And now,
All I want to do
Is go back to sleep.
I was but a moment of her life...
Nameless...Faceless...
But she left a permanent mark;
On my hard beating heart.
A shadow on the memory of paradise.
What once were wild energies;
Enveloped in wondrous reveries,
Are now cauterized gashes;
On a heart turning to ashes;
By attempts to lobotomize memories.
With my third eye pried open wide...
The vantablack void sucks the stars from the sky;
like...

The Void
With my third eye pried open wide...
The vantablack void sucks the stars from the sky;
like a helpless child watching mama die.
I damned my destiny with my decisions...
"Shed your skin and step free from your prison"
Like whispers on the wind, the void calls me in.

The Monster in the Mirror
I feel the unease;
when you look at me..
Should'a looked away;
than suffer what you see..
I look to catch a glimpse;
a brief moment;
where our souls might eclipse..
But look away, as if to dismiss..
Don't feel that fear;
of feeling what I feel..
Just look away in hopes;
that I won't come near..
Pray I don't speak..
"What a monster;
what a creep;
what a freak?"
I see through you;
into your ugly soul..
but I won't tell you;
wouldn't want you to feel like I do...

The Angel and the Wolf
The angel and the wolf~
Mystified and amazed..
Bright morning rays,
Part ways;
through misty haze..
to illuminate the days.
I sit alone;
with my thoughts..
force-feeding faults;
to the well..
to the vaults.
It was all a dream,
or so it would seem..
Young ones pray;
dance and play..
full of hope and wonder,
Bright futures..
well underway.
Skies fade to grey,
followed by torrential rain,
and violent lightning strikes..
All in its path, burnt to ash,
and...

Haunted
So you see it seems
That I am unseen
Unheard and unfelt
Or so it seems
What are the means?
I open my mouth
To scream and shout
But to no avail
Nothing comes out
What’s this about?
All that I am
Is just a man
No more, no less
I do what I can
I am who I am
I walk this path
In the aftermath
Choices I’ve made
Let loose their wrath
To stain my ash
Why, oh why, do I
No tears left to cry
Am I still alive
Or just living the lie
Of...

Silent Assault
Turn the other cheek, they say.
Take the high road, okay.
I’m in, almost all the way!
Sometimes…
I feel the need to tear off my skin
The need to feed the sin
Expose the screaming demon within
Silent rage...
It knows your secrets
I want it to keep them
For the pain will be grievous
Verbal venom…
You test, torment, and tease
Until the monster is released
Begging please on your knees
Mental madness…
Scratch, claw, and rip at your eyes
Trying,...

Drive for love
I once knew a girl
She had a twinkle in her eye
She spent all her mind
on this one special guy
She'd been hurt
She'd been lied to
She needed time
Time to think it through
This guy had been rejected
He needed a sign
He'd flash a quick smile
To see if their eyes might align
One day, on a whim
This guy did decide
To grab a dozen roses
And a bottle of wine
He dashed to his car
Waiting no more
He thought to himself
"I'll just knock on her door"
The wind in his hair ...

Don't know you anymore
Who is this person I see
She's not who I remember
Willing, without empathy
to commit such atrocities
She, who worked tirelessly
to put others before she
But, it was a game, you see
In this life, nothing is free
Not even love
torn from one,
and given to another son
But, this son...is done
There was never a selfless act
Only ploys, with tact
My eyes are open wide
And mind filled with facts
Enough of these tricks and traps
I'm on the attack
Even if the attack,
means turning my...

One in a million
She's got a little bit o' sass
She's a little bit bad-ass
Great style, magical smile
And a whole lotta class
She's a mysterious mystique
She's a wild personality
With a rock and roll soul
And a whole lotta unique
She speaks real shit
Fluent in sarcasm and wit
Creative and innovative
She flips the scripts on what is
Do not misconstrue
I've said this about a few
She's one in a million
And never has it been more true
She's a little bit bad-ass
Great style, magical smile
And a whole lotta class
She's a mysterious mystique
She's a wild personality
With a rock and roll soul
And a whole lotta unique
She speaks real shit
Fluent in sarcasm and wit
Creative and innovative
She flips the scripts on what is
Do not misconstrue
I've said this about a few
She's one in a million
And never has it been more true
