POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm going to say that I've written hundreds of poems and I'm working on a book, regardless I still feel inexperienced. I write what I feel, and most consider it dark and disturbing. The looks my teachers and fellow students give me are priceless though.
Do What You Love to do What You Need
Life doesn't always go the way you think it may
Time passes and things change
One thing that will not change
Are the pangs that bring you home
Know that your hobbies may return
Keep them close for nostalgia some yearn
For they are like children and nourishment they need
Or else they will wither and leave
Keep at em at least once a week
To keep them from getting too lean
Don't lose hope in doing the things you love
Or sadness will overrun
Time passes and things change

Or else they will wither and leave

To keep them from getting too lean
Don't lose hope in doing the things you love

Pain
Not justified is the pain
All the time it rains
The water burns the wounds you have made
And it’s causing me to lose my sane
Just as the fox chases the hare
You chase me in my nightmare
Scare me you don’t
And hurt me again you won’t
I’m stronger now
To me you will bow
Escape is none
For with you I am done
Others you will hurt no more
You will then become bored
You start to lose it
And insanity will kick in a bit
All the time it rains
The water burns the wounds you have made
And it’s causing me to lose my sane
Just as the fox chases the hare
You chase me in my nightmare
Scare me you don’t
And hurt me again you won’t
I’m stronger now
To me you will bow
Escape is none
For with you I am done
Others you will hurt no more
You will then become bored
You start to lose it
And insanity will kick in a bit

Scream
She screams
The blade running through her chest
She begs
Hoping she will give it a rest
Her boyfriend cheated
The other girl will pay
Mercy she will plea
But none will she see
She will hurt as much as her
She will make her see
As she screams and prays
Her body now lays
She licks the blood of her blade
And looks at the mess she has made
No problem she says
After all he is next
The blade running through her chest
She begs
Hoping she will give it a rest
Her boyfriend cheated
The other girl will pay
Mercy she will plea
But none will she see
She will hurt as much as her
She will make her see
As she screams and prays
Her body now lays
She licks the blood of her blade
And looks at the mess she has made
No problem she says
After all he is next

Sally
A little girl with a dark mind
A little girl no more than five
She’s more than just a little morbid
Her dolls bleed
And her bears kill
She lives in a world of madness
Oh she’s a creepy little girl
But a very sweet one
Her family fears her
As much as they love her
She scares the other children
She looks at them and run away they do
Her drawings do terrify
She sings songs of morbidity
Hurt others she though has not
Sally lives in a world her own
At night she cries
Longing for others...
A little girl no more than five

Little Lolita
Little Lolita so young and pure
The kingdom and nobles love her alike
She is very much adored
Little Lolita how bright she burns
Little Lolita loves her sweets
And she loves her teas
Little Lolita loves her dolls
And she loves her songs
Little Lolita is learning to cook
Little Lolita is learning how to clean
She’s learning to sew
And she’s learning to write and read
Little Lolita is ripening quickly
She’s growing up fast
But in a neighboring kingdom
A man committed murder
She’s found a lover ...

The Vampire in the Graveyard Scene 1, Act 2
(Lupus is hiding in the bushes out of sight watching Victoria who is sitting by a lake sobbing enter Victoria and Vilkas)
Vilkas: (Touches her shoulder)
Victoria: (Jumps and turns around)
Vilkas: I’m sorry did I frighten you?
Victoria: Oh, it’s nothing I just didn’t expect you to follow me that’s all.
Vilkas: Why wouldn’t I follow you?
Victoria: (Sighs) Because I’m a vampire!
Vilkas: So?

Death
So very far but all around
Dark and gloomy
So many fear it
But I fear not
I find it fascinating
Many don’t want to face it
Nor do I
But it’s unknown
That’s why it’s fascinating
But yet feared
I wish to know more about it
But who knows what’s on the other side
I want to explore it
But a way to return has not been found
But I will see my own one day
Hopefully not soon
It’s heartbreaking for those whose loved ones have seen it
Millions and millions have seen it
Yet it’s as dark as night
And quiet...

The Love of The Beauty
There once was a beauty dressed in dark
She lived in ice cold lands adorned in snow
And her voice when she sang was like that of a lark
And there was a man that loved her so
And she loved him back
The man’s soul she could see was sensitive
And the help she could offer was limited
It was as if the more help she offered him more pain was caused
So away she stayed from the man and paused
But she thought about her choice through
The beauty went back to him and forgiveness he gave
But felt he was to blame
He felt he caused...

Nightmare
I wake up from a nightmare
Everything is in despair
Call it once it’s just a bluff
Call it twice it’s just our luck
You cut me open with a knife
Now all that I feel is strife
I chain you to a chair
As I rip out your hair
I tear the flesh from your bones
And I toss at you a bunch of stones
I laugh as you scream and break
Now you lie down in a forever doze
Everything is in despair
Call it once it’s just a bluff
Call it twice it’s just our luck
You cut me open with a knife
Now all that I feel is strife
I chain you to a chair
As I rip out your hair
I tear the flesh from your bones
And I toss at you a bunch of stones
I laugh as you scream and break
Now you lie down in a forever doze

The Mind of Madness
Inside the mind of madness the moon is the sun the sun is the moon
Inside the mind of madness teddy bears kill and dolls send chills
Inside the mind of madness fish have legs and oysters dance and sing
Inside the mind of madness tar breathe fire and cats smile
Inside the mind of madness unicorns are black and have blood upon their horns
In the mind of madness the walls live, breathe, and bleed
In the mind of madness cookies are killer and milk is sour and bitter
In the mind of madness people drown in children’s tears
In the mind of madness...

The People In The Person
There were four
Who lived in one girl
The people were different
Each were unique
But not what you would think
The first was a little girl who loved pink
And all things girly
However she disappeared years ago
She was missed dearly
she came back morbid and distinct in pink
The second came around when the body was thirteen
She was similar to the first girl and the second girl
The young girl liked pink
But she also pulled of skulls
and liked black as well
When the body was 16 a new girl developed ...
