POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Im haunted lunacy, I like to write mostly dark poetry. I like to write different styles as well especially haiku. Sometimes I write Edgar Allen Poe type stuff also .
The Dance Of The Skeleton King
Behold the dance of the rattling bones,
see how they click and clack,
the prancing of their skeleton feet,
a ballet to dazzle and to distract.
They pirouette with skinless glee,
then arabesque and take a bow,
and with a smile the king is pleased,
his loyal subjects did amaze and wow.
Hail to the king!
We only exist to entertain.
Hail to the king!
We pick up our bones and
dance again .

4a.m.
At 4am the demons come,
to bring the things from
which I run,
the devils lies I know so
well, gently whispered
from the depths of hell.
With their dreadful eyes and
horrid wings, at the foot
of my bed they tell me
these things.
I cannot sleep for fear of
them, those demons that
taunt me at 4am.

Enchanted Moonlight
Forever is a lie we tell ourselves,
when hearts pretend to care.
Tomorrow brings inevitable pain,
for once we love, it is ours to bear.
Such beauty in the enchanted
moonlight, where once we used
to dance,
now in its beams a broken man,
who bared his soul to chance.
It would have been better to
never have danced at all and
saved them both from hell,
as forever is just a terrible lie
that we always tell ourselves.

The Harlots Lovers
Ripping flesh from bone, /
screams will feed my empty soul, /
the harlots lovers.

The Dance Of The Narcissist
She laces up her shoes
and prepares to take the
stage.
She’s practiced it so many
times, this dance she did
create.
A dance to dazzle and impress,
her moves will wow them all,
but little do her patrons know,
each step is their downfall.
She’ll spin and twirl and
pirouette, she’ll tear them all
apart, and then for her grand
finale she will rip out all their
hearts, and when it’s done she’ll
take a bow for she cannot resist,
after all her dance is the best one,
the dance of the narcissist.

Quiet Memories
Quiet memories, /
haunting the back of my mind, /
silently killing.

Lonely Star
In the twilight hours,
the broken stars, they
fall.
One by one they shimmer
away, longing to be beheld
by all.
A million galaxies we search
to find, the lonely star that
was left behind.
The universe with all its
vastness,
would drive this lonely star to
madness.
Searching for another to
understand,
and shine together once again.

Scared
I get scared at night when
I am alone.
When the world is quiet
and the demons do roam.
When that ghosts that haunt
me invade my dreams,
and the moon sends the curses
that ride upon its beams.
Oh to find peace in this dark
hour, but only devils I find
have come to devour.
I pray that the daylight will
soon fill my home, for I get
scared at night when I am
alone .

hour, but only devils I find

soon fill my home, for I get

Midnights Caress
Shadows plague a heart so
tender, haunted silhouettes
upon this soul.
Taunting me since late
November, a wretched
thing to feel this cold.
So I wrap myself in fiery
prose and words to warm
this weary flesh,
close my eyes and long
to slumber, a tortured dream,
midnights caress.

Murder Of The Heart
Murder of the heart, /
seething, blinding, angry pain, /
the rage of the gods.

Lost In Black
Darkness beats within, /
a heart interred, lost in black, /
shadows fill my veins.

Meaningless Words
My heart, it trembles, /
silently wishing to speak, /
these meaningless words.
