Premonition (Chapter 1)
The storm raged on as Arista continued to stare into space. It's been a month since her last letter from home and already she's racked her over-stressed brain countless times judging, calculating and attempting to forecast when word of familiarity would reach her. Arista practically jumped out of her skin as a crude leather whip landed upon her desk. "Clearly, our attention seems elsewhere, isn't that right, Miss Pendragon?" spat out Mrs. Greenwood, the head of women's etiquette. She had a toucan like beak for a nose and far too many warts in Arista's opinion. How she ever succeeded...

After The Jabberwocky's Death
Written for a competition here on DUP, on Live Wonderland
________________________________________________________
The Vorpal sword swings swift and true,
Its age old foe it sought,
Snicker-snack went the blade,
Gushing out blood so black.
Insidious ruin, or as its called,
A mere remnant of what it was,
What it would have been if it wasn't,
And would be if it was.
And what it wasn't, because it is,
Would be ruby red so clear,
Instead of gooey black and sticky ends,
Which all of Wonderland did fear. ...

Kill Me
Tear out my guts,
Smash in my brain,
Claw out my heart,
But don't leave a stain.
Break all my bones,
Rip all my veins,
Drink all my blood,
Give me more pain.
Slice me to shreds,
Drown out my cries,
Stab all my wounds,
And watch while I die.
Freeze all my arteries,
Burn all of my skin,
Cut out my tongue,
Deepen your sin.
Carve into my flesh,
Flood both my lungs,
Pick out my eyes,
Now go load your guns.
Shoot at my skull,
Fracture my ribs,
Dissect my spine,
Mutilate my lips.

Flood both my lungs,
Pick out my eyes,
Now go load your guns.
Shoot at my skull,
Fracture my ribs,
Dissect my spine,
Mutilate my lips.

Butterfly Wings
Butterfly wings,
So black and blue,
Oh look, my dear friend,
They remind me of you.
Of the bruises you had,
Before you cast off,
Of how you lied,
And pretended to be tough.
Butterfly wings,
So fragile and big,
Now to see you,
I'd have to dig.
Deep in the earth,
Buried with sin,
You left us so quickly,
Like most of your kin.
Butterfly wings,
Its beauty doesn't last,
As I think of you,
I'm haunted by the past.
Of how those wings beat,
How sadly you flied,
How hurriedly you rushed,...
So black and blue,
Oh look, my dear friend,
They remind me of you.
Of the bruises you had,
Before you cast off,
Of how you lied,
And pretended to be tough.
Butterfly wings,

Now to see you,

Food For Thought
Of all the things that were meant to be,
What if they weren't?
If fish to swim high in the sky,
And birds fly down below.
The days would turn like a hamster wheel,
Back and forth it would rock,
If you could live each day with a different start,
Our loved ones would never have to part.
If food were as common as grass and moss,
Growing off trees like parasites,
If water was the morning light that floods the dawn,
And the sea of air which land floats.
What if things that weren't to be,
Were what we are?
Animals that run its...

Goodbye
I cringe as the rain,
Touches my face,
Washing away,
That bitter taste.
I told myself,
Once before,
Never again,
But my heart was torn.
It happened again,
So i built up my wall,
This time, to let nothing in,
Not even a call.
A cry of familiarity,
Not even that,
They'll all go someday,
The more my heart would crack.
Broken it is,
In pieces it shall be,
Scattered like stars,
Upon the moonlit sea.
Alone i will be,
Emotionless and safe,
Is this the path I truly choose?
When I have...

Giant Black Scissors
Giant black scissors,
Have you ever thought such thing?
Of how sharp those blades are,
Of how much sorrow they could bring.
One small slip,
Could end it all,
Oh look, can't you see it?
Theres blood on the walls.
What happened here?
Can't you tell?
I think its obvious,
Someone fell.
Blades of steel,
Pierced her dainty neck,
Sprawled on the floor,
Her body's a wreck!
She fell down the stairs,
The poor dear,
In the house by herself,
Now her soul resides here.
The funeral plays,
Gloomy and...

Madness In The Land Behind The Mirror (Shard the Second)
Shard The Second
______________
"The mechanical creature,
Thats degrading as we speak,
Has been dead since the 52nd of last month,
The bones are only starting to become weak.
The king's most prized pet and weapon,
Was tampered with by the Blank Joker,
You could only imagine how,
He died less than proper."
"Off with his head I presume?"
"Mind you, The Queen Of Hearts holds no place in our talk,
Impaled through his bottom right through the mouth,
And never again did he get caught."

Untitled.
Blooming swords of anger spear through me,
Vicious red marks lay over my entire body,
They can't be seen but they can be felt,
For eons and eons have these ancient feelings dwelt,
They've been there with me and for me it seems,
For ever so long that it just feels like a dream,
Which were visions and which were truly real?
I don't remember making the Devil's deal,
But I can't remember much at all nowadays,
Love and faith now seem like child's play,
I think i'm done with the game, I'm done with the rules,
I'm done with those idiots, those...

Madness In The Land Behind The Mirror (Shard the First)
Shard The First
______________
Madness but not madness,
Insanity but still sane,
Ignorant but always wary,
I truly wonder who's to blame.
This is not just nonsense,
This is not just play,
For what was not to be, seems to be,
My mind alone had gone astray.
Behind my mirror of light,
Where one steps through the glass,
Sliding pass the numerous cracks,
I had begun to relive the past.
A dream within a dream,
Regardless awake or asleep,
Visions so clear, so very real,
From behind the...

All's Fair In Love And War
We committed the perfect crime,
I stole your heart, and you stole mine,
What you didn't know,
Was that my heart would be forever thine.
Play with my heartstrings,
Reduce them to ash,
It was my fault to begin with,
For being so rash.
I trusted you then,
Something i shouldn't have done,
Now i pay the price,
The pain of a million guns.
Fury and rage,
Locked inside a regretful heart,
Too much to bear,
Revengeful vendettas are about to start.
What happened to our wounded love,
Now locked in battle at each...

Be Careful For What You Wish For
I opened my eyes this morning,
Before the sunrise was due,
The first words i heard were cruel,
More than enough to stab you.
Of how imperfect i was,
That I had nothing,
That i was ungrateful,
Of what misery i bring.
Sunrise symbolized new hope,
For me, that was not true,
It just meant the endurance of another day,
Hopeless and without a clue.
The sunset brought beauty,
The death of another day,
The arrival of oblivion,
Keep the thoughts at bay.
Staring at the ceiling,
Thinking about all my suffering,...
