POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Orange
Crossing the land in a boast, with a brag, he shows his face to the unsuspecting.
The bringer of life and the killer called autumn, leaving nothing but his mark.
The crown on his head proves how others couldn't compete.
As hard as they try,
Defeat has never crossed his path.
The ground trembles beneath him.
The world can't help but to stop and stare.
His every move,
Judged and documented.
Standing, in absolute power,
The birds do not chirp for him, they sing.
Of triumph.
Of success....

What Is It?
She dances to the rhythm of your heart, and you won't treat her right.
She rocks your world every night, and all you want to do is fight.
She cleans your place and cleans your ways, and you won't give her the time of day.
What concretes her to you? What is it that makes her stay?

Imagination
Imagination of my troubled sea,
Please become my reality.
I'll live among the non-existent.
Thrive above the torment.
Break character, for a moment,
And be whom I've always wanted.
I'll dance between the broken souls,
Knowing I am free,
I'll laugh in case they didn't know,
There are no chains for me.
I'll take your hand and pull you near,
Look what we've created here,
I kiss you, and hold you dear,
Attractant mixed with silent fear.
I'll swim with the world and feel it move,
I'll trace its steps as it goes,...

Broken
My life is broken like an abandoned window.
Which within lies the shattered pieces of my past.
Always hoping to forget but the past isn't so kind.
There is nothing so terrifying than yourself.
When you look in the mirror and don't recognize.
That means you aren't progressing in life.
Might as well be stuck as an infant.
To them, I am just an infant.
We are all infants.
We are all born to die.
To some, death is not an unwelcome guest.
It consumes them with fear.
It's whispering...

I Want to Feel..
I just want to feel.
I want to feel the rush.
My heart races from the softest touch.
My mind paces with temptation.
I want to feel your skin.
Bare and beautiful,
Exactly what's needed to begin.
I want to feel the pain.
As you reject me.
As you speak his name.
I want to feel the longing.
The feeling of belonging to you.
The need to be something to you.

I Miss You
Now we aren't friends.
Even though,
I miss you so.
I shouldn't though,
After what has happened.
I can't cover my anger,
but I can keep it away.
I miss you so.
They all remind me,
of how happy we used to be.
Although we're done,
and I should walk away.
I miss you so.
I want you near to me,
yet so far away.
You're the most beautiful image,
I've seen to this day.

Nameless
How do you expect me to get over you?
You did it so quickly.
Quicker than the lies that escaped your lips.
Why can't you see who you truly are?
How do you expect me to get over you?
That's removing a piece of me.

Self
Destroy everyone like it's your career.
Walking through a world of reflections.
You hate yourself, and you use it as fuel.
Destruction is suicide when you're dealing with mirrors.

You f**king Liar
You did what I always thought you would.
You did exactly what I had saw coming.
I've never been wrong.
You fucking liar.
Your words don't mean shit to me.
You can't fix this.
Get out of my face.
You fucking liar.
Hoping the world fixed itself.
I trusted me with you.
I gave you everything I could've.
You fucking liar.
Don't speak to me, don't touch me.
You're nothing but a faded memory.
Smothered with lies and hate.
You fucking liar.
You're all the same to me.
Burning with hidden fury....

She Told Me..
She told me she's finally done.
My shackles have been broken.
I'm on my own, but I'm free.
I can finally be me.
I can do what I want.
I can flirt as I always do.
This is the life for me.

Beauty
The world is silent.
A very light russle is heard in the distance.
I lay on my back. The stars are magnificent.
Beauty.
The heat from her body gently brushes my hand.
My attention is drawn to her direction. Our eyes meet.
The twinkling in her eyes match that of the stars.
Beauty.
I take her hand.
She inches over to me.
She rests her head on my chest, and my arm gravitates around her.
Comfort.
She listens for my heart to make sure that I am real.
I run my fingers through hair to prove that I'm not dreaming.
She asks me to say the words....

Dreams
My dreams are my deception.
Telling me you miss me when I already know you don't.
Nightmares that don't happen, maybe predictions for the future.
Outlandish extremities like death and torture.
Always less than perfection.
Empty hallways with your name plastered across them.
Flickering lights and dancing shadows across the walls.
Walking forward, perplexed, trying to find an open door.
Searching for a new direction.
The lights turn on and it's you.
Your smile drains me of all I hate.
Then I remember what you're like.
A new-found tension.
I...
