POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Shattered Child
you hide in the shadows of my mind
and the echoes of my demons
you're the one turning my dreams into nightmares
sleep once beautiful as the light at dawn
now plagued by faceless children
who whisper to take one more hit
one more step towards my downfall
and hope wears thin as my eyes fill with dust
silently screaming into the abyss
my mind tears as I see you in my face
my tongue becomes like a knife
and I cut the hearts of my beloved
shame and depression becomes the meaning of life
blades release pain with the birth of new...
and the echoes of my demons
you're the one turning my dreams into nightmares
sleep once beautiful as the light at dawn
now plagued by faceless children
who whisper to take one more hit
one more step towards my downfall
and hope wears thin as my eyes fill with dust
silently screaming into the abyss
my mind tears as I see you in my face
my tongue becomes like a knife
and I cut the hearts of my beloved
shame and depression becomes the meaning of life
blades release pain with the birth of new...

Stitched Heart
young and precious like a child's hopes and dreams
shattered by cars as I hear demented screams
now asleep in the dark I am no longer blind
lost in the walls of my young absent mind
and the hands are frozen on the clock towers
from a field stained red by bloody paper flowers
with the crimson liquid bleeding from the moon
like the stars descent to the earth at noon
that painted a portrait of orange across the sky
and my stitched heart smiled and began to fly
soaring through flames hanging in the night
away from my bed and towards the light...
shattered by cars as I hear demented screams
now asleep in the dark I am no longer blind
lost in the walls of my young absent mind
and the hands are frozen on the clock towers
from a field stained red by bloody paper flowers
with the crimson liquid bleeding from the moon
like the stars descent to the earth at noon
that painted a portrait of orange across the sky
and my stitched heart smiled and began to fly
soaring through flames hanging in the night
away from my bed and towards the light...

Clockwork Nightmare
this monster hanging on the wall playing its tricks
its hand holds time and its mouth's full of ticks.
my eyes fill with dust
and the water begins to rust.
then the souls waste away by broken trust,
waiting for time to cease its eternal flow,
its name is insomnia and it continues to grow.
numbers and numbers swirl around my head
taunting and tormenting till' I'm gone and dead.
every breath is like acid in my lungs
and my ears burn like a thousand flaming tongues.
the colors seep from my severed skin,
this beast won't stop as I...
its hand holds time and its mouth's full of ticks.
my eyes fill with dust
and the water begins to rust.
then the souls waste away by broken trust,
waiting for time to cease its eternal flow,
its name is insomnia and it continues to grow.
numbers and numbers swirl around my head
taunting and tormenting till' I'm gone and dead.
every breath is like acid in my lungs
and my ears burn like a thousand flaming tongues.
the colors seep from my severed skin,
this beast won't stop as I...
