POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Constantly trying to evolve my style. Partial to dark writings
The Spectre's Storm
Clap, thunder roars like a lion
Clouds hang above as if sighing
Creak, branches sway with defiance
Leaves rustle in close alliance
Howl, wind's grueling, ghastly gale,
Demands attention with its wail
Crash, torrential rains descend
Tears of sadness, laughter blend
All colors are faded grey,
Reflections in puddles betray
Broken body, heart, mind, portrayed
Found courage to be afraid
Release all of the tension,
Vanquish negativity
Passion will be your pension...

Tears of sadness, laughter blend
All colors are faded grey,
Reflections in puddles betray
Broken body, heart, mind, portrayed
Found courage to be afraid
Release all of the tension,
Vanquish negativity
Passion will be your pension...

Unbottle
Bottled up emotions never make much a commosion,
Til' they rise up like the ocean, glass weakened from the corrosion
The surface remains smooth, but you know it is wearing thin
Both the water and the bottle remain turbulent within
The burdens, pains removed, prepare a glass and pour them in
you'll totter as you're throttled by an insane virulent grin
Drink away, quench your thirst, this bitter taste beguiles
Blink and say, prepare for worst, they've been here all the while
The tears that build upon release,...

Aftermath
While I gaze into the starlight, numbed I feel no remorse
For all I've left behind, I have let life run its course
But as I lower my eyes, as I take a look around
I wonder where it all went, everything is coming down
Like ashes from a blaze, I wish for nothing but to wake
In the warmth of my own bed, in my most familiar place
Yet I blink and I'm still here, and I pinch my tender flesh
It won't vanish that fast, I'm surrounded by this mess
While I stand here in stunned silence, while the shock is setting in
I am overcome...

While I stand here in stunned silence, while the shock is setting in

Madness
A prisoner of my mind
The darkest place of all
The only place where I am free
To tear down all the walls
The one place where I feel at home
Dark visions rise up from the loam
Were I to give up my one sanctuary
I would find my free will's obituary
I desire to set it free, to let the madness flow from me
To delve within a world of sin, to let the fun and games begin
How can I be sick? If it was wrong, why would I smile?
This feeling of elation comes when I commit deeds vile
Why shouldn't I be able to release the...

The Corruptor
You have reached the place you never wanted to be
Surrounded by the fires of my growing malady
The seering tongues caress the ceiling
Taste your fear but not revealing
How their hunger consumes all
The first to rise is first to fall
Unrelenting clouds descend
Of smoke to fill your troubled head
Strained breath, you struggle to inhale
When all turns black and senses fail
When you awake, your fragile state,
Succumbs to my proverbial hate
Cliched evil, so I am,
Surrender, you're already damned
You...
Surrounded by the fires of my growing malady

When all turns black and senses fail
When you awake, your fragile state,

Phantom of Delirium
Flip a coin
What did you call?
It matters not, for when it falls
I'll snatch it up from 'neath your grasp
And I'll be long gone just as fast
With a satisfied smirk
I will vanish into air
You'll be left to sit and wonder
Was I ever really there?
A figment of your thoughts,
A haunting trail of knots
You struggle to untie
But no matter how you try
There is no way for you to know
The way out of this haze
As the fog...

Blood Tribute
Release me from my chains
Let me feel that for which I yearn
Your unrelenting pain,
For which my rife desire burns
I tell you not to cry,
Or this will all be over quickly
I'd rather hear you scream
Until your voice is coarse and sickly
I ask you to remain aware
Stay conscious while fragile skin tears
And pours delicious crimson brew
I'll taste what has become of you
As I gaze into your eyes
I am intoxicated
As I utter the sweet lies
That keep you so sedated
Until I lift my...

The Wait
How long must this go on?
Endlessly waking just to sleep
Living just to meet our end
Death waiting patiently to reap
I do not want to close my eyes
For when they open once again
I'll be pulled by hidden ties
Back to this unforgiving trend
They bind me to this cycle,
Seek to rob me of my time
May my hands never be idle
May I not step out of line
These shackles bind my feet
As another grudging day I meet
I wish to sit but I must stand
Wading waste deep through quicksand
I know...
