POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
If you exist, why don't you heal my wounds, if you're god, release me from this tomb.
the black mile
So I sit here on the electric chair
And honestly I really don't care
I put this all on my self
A victim of this cold hell
I ate my last meal and said my prayers
And then they strapped me in this chair
Hooked the needles to my veins
This will be my very last day
but It will all be alright
There should be peace on the other side
I asked them if they could make a request
Please grab the picture from my wallet
You see she is my girl
She is my world
But we parted ways
I never was the same
And I'm to blame
But I...
And honestly I really don't care

but It will all be alright
There should be peace on the other side

I never was the same
And I'm to blame

talk
I sit next to the letters on my bed
and think about all the words they said
They came from a girl who I love
But I just wasn't good enough
I admit this is all really my fault
My past is something I can't live without
But I know really deep down inside
I need you in my life
I don't think you realize
How much you've hurt me
and I could tell in your eyes
That you try to be loving
And I can't take more
I'm on the floor
Screaming at life
Please end my pain
Be mine tonight
It's gone I know your never coming back...

destiny
God I just want to end the thinking
It's hard enough with what I've been dreaming
I'm tired of all of this
I'm tired of being pissed
I feel like a tear
Falling for years
It just won't dry
It became a life
I have tried honestly everything
But what would help is nothing
And I'm just over this
Misery just can't resist
So I'm done saying what has been said
And I'm done hoping for an end
I'm going to weep till I die
Apparently this is my life
I was born for pain and suffering
and Noone can disagree
So if...

dreams
There is a girl
She became my world
Never been this happy
to call someone baby
I lay at night
She is on my mind
Till I fall sleep
And then I dream
And my dreams, they ain't as empty
As the life I used to live
She touched my heart
Right from the start
She brings me peace
From everything
I'll give it all
More than I thought
Just to see that smile
Ohh I love you
and my dreams, they ain't as empty
As the life I once known
She became my world
Never been this happy
to call someone baby
I lay at night
She is on my mind
Till I fall sleep
And then I dream
And my dreams, they ain't as empty
As the life I used to live
She touched my heart
Right from the start
She brings me peace
From everything
I'll give it all
More than I thought
Just to see that smile
Ohh I love you
and my dreams, they ain't as empty
As the life I once known

my life
Well the first years I don't know
When you are young all memories tend to go
But the ones that truly stay
Are the ones you hold on most
And High school is such a blur
All I really remember is the sports
And the bad times that i had
And the girls that won't come back
Life moves so fast
All you can do is make it last
all the love in the past
So graduation is so grey
I was so fucked up from memories
That I couldn't see
The time line of my life
So I worked with my dad
In the oil fields not that bad...

worse
The mesh that is my brain
Is full of shards of glass
Every time I think
The glass just cuts
My brain bleeds so much
It's no longer red
Blood rushing out the eyes
falling from my cheek
My heart is encased
A blanket of barbed wire
Each time it beats
Makes it hurt worse
I'm not sure
If it's the wire
Or the beating
That hurts worse
Is full of shards of glass
Every time I think
The glass just cuts
My brain bleeds so much
It's no longer red
Blood rushing out the eyes
falling from my cheek
My heart is encased
A blanket of barbed wire
Each time it beats
Makes it hurt worse
I'm not sure
If it's the wire
Or the beating
That hurts worse

here to stay
Have you ever had the feeling
you just want to die
You are silently screaming
And tears run down your eyes
The muscles all cringe
And you cannot breathe
Just cannot hold on
Don't know what to think
You beg for the end
You wish it so
Heart just keeps beating
It ain't time to go
Stomach starts knotting up
And your laying on the ground
Fists hitting the floor
Asking If gods around
Give in to the agony
and start to laugh
But you still wonder
how you gonna last
Sooner or later
you face the...

let go
Life it won't let go of me
No matter how hard I try to free
The years just wither away
Beauty in a dull day
The violin screams, out in the night
Searching for a lonely heart of light
The cellos moan, deep in the soul
Reminds us to let go
Life it won't let go of me
No matter how hard I try to free
The years just wither away
Beauty in a dull day
Cherished dreams, lost in the wind
Can only lead one to sin
Past memories, that brought the light
Are only forgotten when we die
Life it won't let go of me
No matter...

life goes on
Well life goes on
As I'm moving along
And I see there's no end
But when did I begin
They say love is real
Then why can we feel
Because in the end we loose
Hope in a noose
Well life goes on
And I'm running along
This world can't stop
Nor us we are god
They say we can see
Why I can't break free
I am chained invisibly
and I'm dead mentally
Well life goes on
After love is gone
I'll keep walking along
For life goes on
I have met my Christ
admit he has died
I failed to see
God is you...

day
I woke this mornin
With a tear in my eye
Got out of bed
But just wanted to die
I looked out the window
And watched the sun rise
And how I think and I feel
Doesn't matter in these eyes
I tried to start my car
It just flooded down
Shoved a wrench in the choke
and got outta town
Made my way to the shop
To work on some cars
And how I wish
I could touch the stars
I ended the day
A joint in my hand
Me and my girlfriend fought
This time it was bad
She never shows up
Or never has the time...

New life same pain
I'm a texan born and raised
I'm a man with no money saved
I ate once yesterday twice today
I'll admit life ain't that easy
But the hardest pain I know
Is knowing I let my baby go
If I knew now what I did then
Maybe things could have worked in the end
I let her go to save some guilt
But I was stupid and I am still
I'm in new mexico and soon to be good
But it's not the same as it should
Raven I kinda hope you are reading this
I don't mean you no harm I can't bear this
I was scared that my time had come
But I was so very...

truthful love
There is a hole in my mind
A space for one thing in time
A bullet
There is an empty slit
On both my wrists
A razor would fit perfectly
There is a cramp in my neck
And in my head it begs
Jump
My veins call out for one thing
A kinda painful sting
Venom
And my liver
Wants me to deliver
Gallons of alcohol
there is a hole in my heart
That has grown from the start
love
A space for one thing in time
A bullet
There is an empty slit
On both my wrists
A razor would fit perfectly

A kinda painful sting
Venom
And my liver
Wants me to deliver
Gallons of alcohol
there is a hole in my heart
