His Hands
You couldn't tell I was drowning, you thought I was waving
And the darkness soaks through my skin, takes me to a watery grave
The vines hold onto me like shackles restricting motion
The water fills me like an emptiness
My lungs heave and collapse in hell's blood polluted ocean.
My feet hit solid ground, a room of dark thoughts and taunting voices
I lie there cold and sweating, silence leaves me naked
A moonlit window showers the room with ghosts of my past
Screaming and tearing at my face
Only He will know how long it will last.
A door opens...
And the darkness soaks through my skin, takes me to a watery grave
The vines hold onto me like shackles restricting motion
The water fills me like an emptiness
My lungs heave and collapse in hell's blood polluted ocean.
My feet hit solid ground, a room of dark thoughts and taunting voices
I lie there cold and sweating, silence leaves me naked
A moonlit window showers the room with ghosts of my past
Screaming and tearing at my face
Only He will know how long it will last.
A door opens...

The Disease
If sadness is a disease, then I am the origin.
I am the toxic mix of virus and DNA
Attacking this living organism
Multiplying and spreading, crippling these cells.
If sadness is a disease, then I am the carrier.
Maliciously infecting those around me
With the cruelest of intent
An epidemic spread by the sighs and hopelessness of my glances.
If sadness is a disease, then I am the end to end it all.
My darkness has spread to the heart, leaking it's poison into the lungs
This is death in it's purest of forms
For this is death from sadness.
I am the toxic mix of virus and DNA
Attacking this living organism
Multiplying and spreading, crippling these cells.
If sadness is a disease, then I am the carrier.
Maliciously infecting those around me
With the cruelest of intent
An epidemic spread by the sighs and hopelessness of my glances.
If sadness is a disease, then I am the end to end it all.
My darkness has spread to the heart, leaking it's poison into the lungs
This is death in it's purest of forms
For this is death from sadness.

Saddest Girl In The World
"Why are there scars on your arm?" he asks
She pauses and says, "It's just masochism.
No-one gets hurt unless they really want to,
and I wanted it."
"But why do you do it?" He tilts his head to the side,
his long hair falling over his shoulder.
"Because I'd rather feel pain than the emptiness of nothing" she sighs.
"And why can't you let yourself feel happiness?"
"Because I'm not satisfied with anything,
and satisfaction leads to happiness."
"I think you're the saddest...

Cars
Drive fast,
Don't stop until we reach the edge of the earth,
Don't turn left or right, I don't want to go home,
I want to see all that I have left to see here,
And I want you to take me there.
Hurry up,
Don't stop walking until we feel the sand and the waves,
Don't let go of me, I don't want to come down,
I want to feel all that I've been wanting to feel,
And I'll feel it all because of you.
Carry on,
Don't stop kissing me until we run out of breath,
Don't turn away, I don't want to return to reality,
I want to float on and do...
Don't stop until we reach the edge of the earth,
Don't turn left or right, I don't want to go home,
I want to see all that I have left to see here,
And I want you to take me there.
Hurry up,
Don't stop walking until we feel the sand and the waves,
Don't let go of me, I don't want to come down,
I want to feel all that I've been wanting to feel,
And I'll feel it all because of you.
Carry on,
Don't stop kissing me until we run out of breath,
Don't turn away, I don't want to return to reality,
I want to float on and do...

Clockwork Girl
A flickering candle, aggravated by the sighs of a girl not quite alive,
Her breath, nothing but an indication of a living machine,
Anger and wrath runs through her, attaching themselves,
To the cells that keep her clockwork insides ticking.
Her head is a million miles above the atmosphere,
Spiralling and spinning through the infinity and impossibility,
Her feet are rooted deep into the centre of the earth,
Her toes touching the burning hot core.
Her soul is hidden and withering in the depths of the coldest and darkest cave,
Shivering and dying...

Ballroom of Romance-Pt 2
So this is the ballroom of romance,
No more a whirlwind,
It's still and quiet,
The candles have all gone out,
No more star-crossed dances and dirty deeds done in dark corners.
Alone,
I sit, still masked,
My head is still spinning,
The darkness is a comfort,
My loneliness is my salvation.
He has gone,
And I closed the door behind him,
The walls start to crumble,
And the gold leaf ceiling shakes,
And I am showered with plaster.
As I emerge from the remnants,
Of the ballroom of vampiric romance,
I smile,for it's...
No more a whirlwind,
It's still and quiet,
The candles have all gone out,
No more star-crossed dances and dirty deeds done in dark corners.
Alone,
I sit, still masked,
My head is still spinning,
The darkness is a comfort,
My loneliness is my salvation.
He has gone,
And I closed the door behind him,
The walls start to crumble,
And the gold leaf ceiling shakes,
And I am showered with plaster.
As I emerge from the remnants,
Of the ballroom of vampiric romance,
I smile,for it's...

Ballroom of Romance
Round and round we go,
In a whirlwind ballroom of romance,
Where only the star-crossed and forbidden lovers dance,
Masked by dark deeds and secret stolen kisses.
This room is painted in shadows,
Shielding passers-by from the lies and deceit that lie in wait.
Round and round we go on trembling feet,
Embraced in a connection so dark and beautiful,
It is left unspoken of.
Hands are joined in unholy matrimony,
Fingers grasping onto the hunger of human urge.
Round and round we go, me and you,
Two vampires of this fire,
Feeding off this...
