POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
A person can hold so many thoughts- first one to infinity wins!
Oh Well
Searching for an opportunity to not be alone,
I found myself pondering for far too long.
What is there left in this world to see,
That could possibly mean anything to me?
I ponder and I ponder, but I never figure out why,
Why I continue breathing this air I am not worthy of breathing.
Heaving I choke, surely there's a reason, surely it's a lie.
I'm becoming the entertainment of every passerby,
Familiar faces among those I don't recognise,
Each similarity is just a disguise.
I look to the sky, I fall to the ground.
I clench my...

Die, Pathetic Bastard.
Preparing for your last goodbye
As you contemplate the worst.
Watching your blood curl,
Acid in your eyes to burst.
Breaths shorten,
Hearing sharpens.
Watch me as i rip your heart out
Devour it with the hate of a scalpel
What would happen if i sliced this vein?
What would happen if i released this chain?
Prepare for the worst,
It is coming,
You screwed with me,
Now im gonna screw with you.
<3

The Tainted
You cant just take advantage of the tainted,
Try to cure the irevocably infected,
Live with the contagious,
Infatuate with the self assured,
Critisize the damned,
Torment the lifeless,
Engage with the perfect,
Calm the agonised,
Fly with the fallen,
Fix the broken,
Numb the pained,
Apologise to the beaten,
Help the independent,
Smile with the advantaged,
Find the lost,
Sympathise the stolen,
Love the one,
And,
Be Yourself.

Sleep With One Eye Open
I can see them.
Yes, they're definitely there.
The shadows crawling on the walls,
All my pain, all my guilt
What I should've said has vanished.
I'm half asleep..I can feel it
Drowsy..helpless
Utterly pointless
Why sleep when you do not rest?
Why live when you are not living?
Why cry..when you've done it all before..
I do not trust what I will find in my sleep.
Therefore I must sleep with one eye open.

Join Me In Hell
I feel the flames...
(I'm getting warmer...)
I feel the ice...
(I'm getting colder...)
My fingers drip with the sorrow that melted...
My hair molts with the guilt that's left
All I can do is burrow myself..
in the depth of what pain resembles..
Take my hand
(I'll show you the way..)
I can feel my heart slowing..
I can feel my mind blurring..
Images sliding..
Tears welling...
Breaths shallowing....
Pain did this not I!
Wait and listen..wait and listen...
It was too late, always too late!
Not enough time...not...

Hello (I'm not okay)
Nodding as if positive
Inside I'm melting
(almost dying)
All I want to do is tell the truth..
I'm crazy...I'm stupid...
(I'm not lying)
Then I found you...you sort of cared
Smiled politely..
Always there
(You were hiding)
Now your gone..
Now your dead..
Lying upon your own death bed...
(I cannot talk..i cannot move)
I'm the shadow..
I'm the nobody...
I'm the one, trying to help people..
(truth is I'm trying to help me)
I'm trembling..
I'm dying..
I can feel my heart deteriorating...
(No more...

Don't. Forget. Ever. (For thyvampiricprince)
Life,
You've runaway,
I can't find you
I can't call you,
I can't see you
Life where are you?
You used to burn inside me
Now I'm numb.
I want to live again!
But how can I when,
Everytime I get up,
You push me back down again!
Life, are you there?
You've got to,
My energy to be happy is gone!
Perished!
Extinct!
Life is that you?
is that you coming to me now?
Camouflaging with the shadows
I have summoned you,
Now come.
I havent forgotten.
Mr Thyvampiricprince,
Please don't...

Streetlights- For Raven Lilith Blackwood:)
Walking down a lit up road
Barely seeing anyone at all
The flicker of the streetlights hang above me
The shadow of the moon stalks along behind me
When sky's are grey, I look for you;
Look for the hope that once existed,
Somewhere deep within my soul
I know it's there
But drowning in these unnamed substances
Of thoughts and emotions
I will find you;
If it takes me the rest of my life,
The streetlights will shine,
It's bulb replaced,
No more flickers in this mind will
And,
Soon walking down that road... ...
