POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I usually just write whenever I am inspired to do so
Just a delusion
I see the red all around me
Spilled out fresh upon the floor
Its scarlet color tantalizes me
Sends me in a frenzy
And dear God
No matter what I may have thought
I just ought
To stop now
But I stay here bowed
In silent prayer
With bitter sweet tears
spilling upon the floor
dripping into the oceans floor
An endless sea of red
Which torrents more and more
Till I noticed it was merely
Just a delusion
And all it was
was nothing more than a river
That has now gone dry
With a cold shiver
I take my cleaver
And...

In silent prayer

spilling upon the floor
dripping into the oceans floor
An endless sea of red
Which torrents more and more
Till I noticed it was merely
Just a delusion
And all it was

That has now gone dry
With a cold shiver

Shot the Sheriff
I shot the sheriff
And I tried to clear it
They asked me questions
And I denied it
I did not live to regret it
And again I will say it
As proud as day I will scream it
I shot the sheriff
And I dont live to regret it
And I tried to clear it
They asked me questions
And I denied it
I did not live to regret it
And again I will say it
As proud as day I will scream it
I shot the sheriff
And I dont live to regret it

My Brain
I have only one brain cell left
Its right there to the left
It is suspended in mid air
Just like a chandelier
It swings without a care
Not knowing any fear
Its right there to the left
It is suspended in mid air
Just like a chandelier
It swings without a care
Not knowing any fear

Sweet
Sweet and lovely
You are to me my honey
Whenever you're near
I lose all fear
To you I call
Each time I fall
My heart skips a beat
Whenever we meet
You are to me my honey
Whenever you're near
I lose all fear
To you I call
Each time I fall
My heart skips a beat
Whenever we meet

My way
This is the world I know
These are the seeds I've sow
And this here is my vow
I will not throw
Each second of my life away
I will sat always for a day
And contemplate just what to say
Instead of doing things my way
I will let others have a say
For I tell you upon this day
I shall never be the same again
These are the seeds I've sow
And this here is my vow
I will not throw
Each second of my life away
I will sat always for a day
And contemplate just what to say
Instead of doing things my way
I will let others have a say
For I tell you upon this day
I shall never be the same again

The tower
I am stuck here in a tower
Counting down my final hours
Refusing to sit an cower
I shall stand even taller
than this here tower
And face them with all my power
Till my final hour
Counting down my final hours
Refusing to sit an cower
I shall stand even taller
than this here tower
And face them with all my power
Till my final hour

A man so lonely
He was old
And spent his days all alone
He never had a phone
Cause no one ever said hello
They say he was cold
As if he was made of stone
For they never liked his tone
And decided to leave him alone
And spent his days all alone
He never had a phone
Cause no one ever said hello
They say he was cold
As if he was made of stone
For they never liked his tone
And decided to leave him alone

My Love
Im stuck here in this world of endless night
A place of only darkness and no more light
A world so cold its an endless fright
I feel my heart clenching tight
At the thought of losing you one night
For my dear you see you are my guiding light
Lost in this place of eternal darkness
Trapped here I say
A place with no kindness
Here in the dark
I had made my mark
Content this way
Till you came my way
Now Im astray
By what you say
You captivate me
And torment me
In the kindess way
I truly hope yourhere to stay
Even if it...
A place of only darkness and no more light
A world so cold its an endless fright
I feel my heart clenching tight
At the thought of losing you one night
For my dear you see you are my guiding light
Lost in this place of eternal darkness
Trapped here I say
A place with no kindness
Here in the dark
I had made my mark
Content this way
Till you came my way
Now Im astray
By what you say
You captivate me
And torment me
In the kindess way
I truly hope yourhere to stay
Even if it...

Darkness
Shattered in despair
Lost in a world of endless fear
All I can do is stand here
In this world of fear
Waiting for you my dear
When shall you arrive here
The darkness it calls to thee
From somewhere deep withtin me
Come I say
Come to me I pray
What do you say
Wont you stay
Till another day
Lost in a world of endless fear
All I can do is stand here
In this world of fear
Waiting for you my dear
When shall you arrive here
The darkness it calls to thee
From somewhere deep withtin me
Come I say
Come to me I pray
What do you say
Wont you stay
Till another day

Blind
We are all created in a world of darkness
Born to a world full of light
Yet still we have no sight
How is that right
Trapped in a world of endless night
Cause our eyes are shut way too tight
Never to behold the sight of true light
Born to a world full of light
Yet still we have no sight
How is that right
Trapped in a world of endless night
Cause our eyes are shut way too tight
Never to behold the sight of true light

Why me?
I am so depressed
And can't comprehend
How life seems so unfair at the best of times
with tears in my eyes I stand here and cry
A river a lake a sea that will never dry
I fade into the darkness
made out of my own foolishness
All alone here where no one can see me cry
Lost to the days and endless nights
A place of no hope or light
Lost,afraid and all alone
Only with the mirror's clone
She keeps my company
with a face like my very own
In this place I now call my home
Where none enter or come to my aid
Where there is only pain
A...

Afterlife
Here In the afterlife
This is my body lifeless and cold
This is my soul
Which none can hold
In this empty world
Of darkening gray
Is where I shall stay
Until the end of days
Lost as a stray
Forgotten and left in a world of disarray
There is only one thing left to do: pray
This is my body lifeless and cold
This is my soul
Which none can hold
In this empty world
Of darkening gray
Is where I shall stay
Until the end of days
Lost as a stray
Forgotten and left in a world of disarray
There is only one thing left to do: pray
