POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Bare Soul
Your eyes so far away
Stifling clouds keeps you inside your head
I will taste your words instead
Starving you of a safe place
I'll undress you to your dreams
Pull you at the seams
And I will replace
Those sharps with my teething
And give you a new reason for laboured breathing
Your lashes quickly lick my face
Broken butterfly trapped in my strong embrace
Stifling clouds keeps you inside your head
I will taste your words instead
Starving you of a safe place
I'll undress you to your dreams
Pull you at the seams
And I will replace
Those sharps with my teething
And give you a new reason for laboured breathing
Your lashes quickly lick my face
Broken butterfly trapped in my strong embrace

Making Love Songs
Cover me with sheets for shade
Before your chocolate hair melts over my shoulder blades
Skin caramelized by candle light
His eyes darken like coffee
Waiting for my plea
Suddenly your eyes go sherry bright
As I receive a piece of your soul with too much delight
I tremble for another
And before its morning death
Let the illuminated moon hear and see
Coming out of our breaths
Another love song soon to be
Before your chocolate hair melts over my shoulder blades
Skin caramelized by candle light
His eyes darken like coffee
Waiting for my plea
Suddenly your eyes go sherry bright
As I receive a piece of your soul with too much delight
I tremble for another
And before its morning death
Let the illuminated moon hear and see
Coming out of our breaths
Another love song soon to be

Still
Bird sings until voice breaks
Waiting for me to finally awake
Owl wonders and curiously peeps
Waiting for me to fall asleep
Sun bows to the moon
But it seems too soon
I can barely move anymore
Life goes up and down
Waiting for me to smile or frown
The sky shows me the time
But my heart beats the same chime
Eyes beg me to move
But it seems too soon
I don't want to move anymore
The air gives me no thrill
Please leave me until
I am completely still
Waiting for me to finally awake
Owl wonders and curiously peeps
Waiting for me to fall asleep
Sun bows to the moon
But it seems too soon
I can barely move anymore
Life goes up and down
Waiting for me to smile or frown
The sky shows me the time
But my heart beats the same chime
Eyes beg me to move
But it seems too soon
I don't want to move anymore
The air gives me no thrill
Please leave me until
I am completely still

Beauty and my Bones
Far away from sight
The sun has gotten too bright
The darkness they hate
But I cant come out in this state
Im shedding to my bone and soul
The only thing that makes me feel whole
My fingers grow tired of spilling all my mistakes
But I'm tired of the mockers and the fakes
Why do I hate the blood
Why do I need to be as fragile as the rose bud
When I already know
After shedding I'm still not as beautiful
The sun has gotten too bright
The darkness they hate
But I cant come out in this state
Im shedding to my bone and soul
The only thing that makes me feel whole
My fingers grow tired of spilling all my mistakes
But I'm tired of the mockers and the fakes
Why do I hate the blood
Why do I need to be as fragile as the rose bud
When I already know
After shedding I'm still not as beautiful

Water Maiden
She bathed
In the waves
Washed up on your shore
Hoping youd love her more and more
Still unsaved
Her watery grave;
She was always destined for
Kept her distance from loving you more
Last look
She stayed put
Easily her aching heart tore
Watching someone else love you more and more
In the waves
Washed up on your shore
Hoping youd love her more and more
Still unsaved
Her watery grave;
She was always destined for
Kept her distance from loving you more
Last look
She stayed put
Easily her aching heart tore
Watching someone else love you more and more

Little Red
You said come Little Red
Why didn't I listen to myself instead
It was I you broke
When I came out of my cloak
With a true honest blessing
I came to you uncertain, still guessing
Wounds blossoming like a rose
Skipping along, alone on my nervous toes
Caught in your ruby teeth
Nobody sees your wolves tirelessly stalking me
Drowning my thoughts with screams
I cut down your horrid, daunting trees
These woods go on forever
I never wanted this to go together
If I ripped your stomach open
Would your lies...

Zombie
My flesh is decaying
But waste no time delaying
Filling myself up
Decomposing mind's stuck
Craving on one thing
Only moaning; can't scream
I've given up my control
That empty hole
I keep ravenously filling
Hearts I keep killing
Seeing I'm not really there
Disease doesnt care
My vain infection spreads
They see my dread
Guilt drips from wounds above
forgetting pleasure of
Gentleness, softness and love
Memories are swiftly fading
This obsession has me disintegrating
Your words...

The Darling Fox
Swirling in a sea of floral and daisy
Under the sun and clouds just lazy
Chatting with a delightful anthropomorphic fox
Adoring his coat, bow tie and little socks
The reflection on his glasses I do not mind
Just myself, my own beauty I suddenly do not mind
The fox bows in appreciation of my visit
We say our goodbyes, and suddenly I hear crickets
Chirping outside my windows
Rational darkness fills and flows
I cant help this feeling
Puncturing, carving, drinking; cravings I cant stop feeding
My reflection shows the ugly outside but I...

Pandora's Box
A black box sat in the dark
So alluring, my mind couldn't depart
The thought of all my dreams
Attainable, was it all it seems?
To be a pretty little thing
Is what I want to be
Opened, holding nothing but a mirror
Hungry but disgust is my barrier
To be a happy little thing
Is just what I want to be
The box opens; I see sparkling
Silver metal gleaming deadly at me
To be an adored little thing
Is what I really want to be
Taken care of by someone special
But trust lost I only see the devil
To be an unaware...

My Watercolor Tears
He put to my ear a shell
So I could hear what the ocean might tell
Not sure it was a siren's song
Or doubtful thoughts I held onto for too long
The ocean becomes quiet and deathly still
Then the shore reaches out giving me a chill
I felt the pulling from the unwanted
Feeling the hesitant living; they are the ones haunted
Not the ones that already drowned beneath
No tears from too many emotions, finally in peace
The dead dont feel the harsh breeze
In your shallow waters on the sharp reef
The kraken hides deep in my mind
Nobody...

Your Release
Your shadow veils over me
Concealing all I used to see
Your grasp curls like a vine of thorns
With my scarlet you sedately adorn
You collapse on me like a humiliated wave
I take it all in like always
You break and shatter like glass
I feel your shards and rage fall as you make it last
You pass on your regrets and mistakes
When you're through I stay still like a calm lake
But my sickly eyes stare into my mind
Still unsatisfied I let my metal grind
Paralyzed thoughts all night
Your release put me to such delight ...

On Bad Days
My sharp kiss
Put you in bliss
It aches again
So indulge in my sin
Let it begin
Clean your cherry skin
Conceal in vault
It's your own fault
Lost in thought
Emotions overwhelm a lot
Let me help
I'll make you melt
Then put away
For another bad day
Put you in bliss
It aches again
So indulge in my sin
Let it begin
Clean your cherry skin
Conceal in vault
It's your own fault
Lost in thought
Emotions overwhelm a lot
Let me help
I'll make you melt
Then put away
For another bad day
