POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write ever since I know myself. This doesn't mean that I write a lot, I don't actually, but I still have a pen and paper under my pillow, just in case, if you know what I mean. I like to express myself through poetry. It's my safe heaven.

beautiful beeing
one of a kind
cursed with the gift of seeing
even though she was blind
braided golden hair locks
fell on her pale shoulders
her blue gaze like the hawk's
never revealed to others
she walked this earth
knowing the future
yet she gave birth
to this peerless culture
she taught them
to read and to write
only to cause mayhem
in the turning of twilight
she's still watching
from somewhere afar
what life is like living
trapped in a jar
one of a kind
cursed with the gift of seeing
even though she was blind
braided golden hair locks
fell on her pale shoulders
her blue gaze like the hawk's

she walked this earth

she taught them
to read and to write

Sunlit
I stared into those glassy eyes
and I cried cried cried
my tears dripping right inside
wishing to make them alive
even for a single second
I craved to fill the emptiness
to find the missing bond
feel less of the mess
then I closed them lids
as if sleeping they would say
but they felt heavy amidst
this forsaken sunlit day
I heard chatter from afar
gibberish and some laughter
I could not make sense at all
of this forever after
they lowered the coffin
deep into the ground

oblivion
did you know
every single time I close my eyes
I see life struggle to stay inside
them cold inert bodies
I see calamities
fires scorching
razing the everything
to the ground
into the ashes astound
lies the dessicated rainfall
soaked in blood
as it carves out the craving appetite
for eternal night
did you know
every single time I take a breath
I bathe in the Lethe
its ice cold strokes running all over
all the forgotten smoulder
a faint memory
of what it used to be
yet still there ...
every single time I close my eyes
I see life struggle to stay inside
them cold inert bodies
I see calamities
fires scorching
razing the everything

into the ashes astound
lies the dessicated rainfall
soaked in blood
as it carves out the craving appetite
for eternal night
did you know
every single time I take a breath
I bathe in the Lethe

all the forgotten smoulder

gone insane
it's been once, twice, three times, four
and I can't, I can't take this anymore
the heartbeats were thumping anxiously in my head
then there's the click, infernal silence, and finally the bang
the bullet went straight through my core
dispersing the flesh around it on the floor
I hit the ground still breathing, still alive
the smell of dirt forced its way inside
and I was wheezing, choking on my blood
awaiting the end unbound
I felt its moist warmth on my skin
then saw it blend into the earth under me
then the sirens were...
and I can't, I can't take this anymore
the heartbeats were thumping anxiously in my head
then there's the click, infernal silence, and finally the bang
the bullet went straight through my core
dispersing the flesh around it on the floor
I hit the ground still breathing, still alive
the smell of dirt forced its way inside
and I was wheezing, choking on my blood
awaiting the end unbound
I felt its moist warmth on my skin
then saw it blend into the earth under me
then the sirens were...

blue rabbit
unwanted
sitting in the mud
waiting for a hug
waiting for someone
even though it knows there really is none
to laugh with
to cuddle with
to be with
to love
if only
if only it wouldn't be so lonely
thrown away
yet searching for a reason to stay
searching to share the darkness
the useless uselessness
the emptiness
the mess
if only
if only she could feel mercy
but she passed by
chasing a butterfly
faded
nothing but an old cur
its once fluffy sleeky fur
now...

it
it has caught me, ripping me apart
somehow I knew from the start
and still, I went forward
hoping I could change a heart
I was stubborn going ahead
imagining I can better the bad
yet I've lost my head
in the devious process instead
I followed my ethics every day
thinking it was the right way
but it has caught me today
and I'm afraid I won't get away
what a shame, what a shame
my days are all the same
every one of them so lame
goes by as they came
I'm a prisoner of my own mind ...

muse
blindfolded as he was
thinking of what he had lost
his love and obsession
his only possession
his life and his death
his only breath
and here I am
but a few clumsy strokes
and the desire he evokes
a goddamn
reflection of what's inside
bleeding darkness - sacrifice
beautiful perfection
utter rejection
a place to hide
from the world outside
and he stares back at me
expecting to be something else
than this deafening silence
on a killing spree
...

dear love,
what if I see you no more
my dried up tears preparing for a futile war
with your face blurred into the background
a faint echo of what meant to be safe and sound
yet here I am for you
pixel perfect skin
no blemishes
from within
eden of all wishes
what if I hear you no more
your empty promises I used to abhor
your words a whirlpool of nonsense
distant murmur of the past
yet here I am for you
an other empty vessel of pleasure
drained
of hope
of dreams
of life
your treasure
what...
my dried up tears preparing for a futile war
with your face blurred into the background
a faint echo of what meant to be safe and sound
yet here I am for you
pixel perfect skin
no blemishes
from within
eden of all wishes
what if I hear you no more
your empty promises I used to abhor
your words a whirlpool of nonsense
distant murmur of the past
yet here I am for you
an other empty vessel of pleasure
drained
of hope
of dreams
of life
your treasure
what...

fairy tale
what are you wearing, love
now, that the magic's gone
is that a limp from last night's dance
veiled within romance
blissful ignorance
some lipstick on your neck
flashes of lust that bled
a fairy tale in your head
what are you wearing, love
now, that you sobered up
is that the scent of passion
sweetest delusion
a perfect fusion
traces of fingernails on your ribs
a sigh on your lips
sealed by a kiss
what are you wearing, love
now, that you're alone
are those trails...
now, that the magic's gone

home
like a cockroach dipping into the moist of the darkness
I cradle within your numbness
stay when others would leave
whisper words you wanna believe
I am the parasite brewing in the hollow chambers of your heart
eating it up tearing you apart
I am pain
I am misery
I am everything you hate to be
I am every thing you've lost, every thing you thought you had
the part of you that's a little bit more dead
with every night that passes by
I dismember the lie
chop its limbs piece by piece
cease the disease
I am pain ...
I cradle within your numbness
stay when others would leave
whisper words you wanna believe
I am the parasite brewing in the hollow chambers of your heart
eating it up tearing you apart
I am pain

I am everything you hate to be
I am every thing you've lost, every thing you thought you had

cease the disease
I am pain ...
