POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
If i spoke as much as i think, i'd die of lack of oxygen. If i thought as much as i speak, i'd be brain dead. I just write anything, sometimes it's good, usually it's bad, but it keeps me sane-ish
Tortured
The skin was condemned and was flayed,
The veins that were vivid still pulsed,
All who did hear were dismayed,
And all who did see were repulsed,
The pain does attempt to represent,
The holder’s unpleasant descent,
Into pages of tales of honour now lost,
The deed, the judgement, the cost.
The veins that were vivid still pulsed,

And all who did see were repulsed,

Into pages of tales of honour now lost,
The deed, the judgement, the cost.

Pleasure of Guilt
) Please desire to do to me what I hate,
I want to see you try and take,
Help me, I aspire to be wanted and feel special,
Force me to you, make me nestle,
Lust so I can feel insulted and repulsed,
Let me scorn you for your basic impulse,
Emotions have no place here,
Fairness has no sway with me,
I lie, but it is the truth they fear,
Tears and sorrow is all they care to see,
Your life has led you to me, that you must regret,
As I beckoned you, you crawled, now this is what you get,
Universal disgust, you are as good as dead,
You are...

Lost in Games
Completely nonsensical,
Inconsequential,
Incomprehensible you,
Sometimes unbearable,
Yet you’re not comparable,
No one knows what you may do,
Immensely illogical,
Must be psychological,
This hold that you have over me,
Yet it’s so unmistakable,
This bond is unbreakable,
I’ll prove it. You will see.

Progress
These times they change so fast, it can not be seen,
But that’s the way it has to be, the way, it’s always been,
Special effects replace the plotline,
Face to face replaced by the online,
The reason we Humans don’t live very long,
Is we’re unable to live where we do not belong,
We rely on things that we always knew, and know to be true,
And we can’t adjust when it’s all too new,
In the morning I am mourning, a world that now is old,
At night, I curse the sight, of this future, bright, yet cold.

Safety of Dreams
Have dreams of good tidings and jovial days,
for life can not match a dream, and it's ways,
Imagine a world where all you wish comes to be,
a world that is not one, but is all you wish to see,
Peel back your eyes to where you're bound,
to a place where you know touch and know sound,
knowing all that you do, with nothing to shock,
tighten your eyes, open your mind, and simply forget,
deceiving ourselves is a rare virtue we get,
for a third of our lives we live it,
it must be more real than we thought,
dwelling in the endless pit,
where fears are...

Ashes
Colour will fade with sunlight,
Grey will blanket the night,
Empty eyes scour empty fields,
An empty ocean and sky,
Self-made isolation from sorrow it shields,
Pure joy, pure hate, all purity shall die,
The water's chill stabs at my flesh like a blade,
regretting, yet continuing, this horror self-made,
When i'm gone, you may mourn, or wonder, though you shouldn't,
I'd have loved to have stayed, to battle on, but i couldn't,
Wait for a windy day, a very windy day,
then simply let me go, and watch me fly away.

Dare to die
A feel the raindrops on my cheek,
Like a tear it trickles down,
To fit the scene, both cold and bleak,
Similar emotions I try to drown,
I reminisce on times gone by,
Nostalgic thoughts just aren’t the same,
A lonely world crammed full of souls,
It seems insane, but I don’t know why,
I feel the chill of the winter air,
A harsh blow of immortality,
My dreaming though, helps me to dare,
To fulfil my own mortality

Imaginary Me
Dark and unknown, he stands alone,
Can he be lost if he has never been found,
Young, but now grown, dark flesh and bone,
King of his prison the familiar ground,
We stare to the ocean, maybe in hope,
Though I know we lost that, he soon will too,
Isolated as such, no one can cope,
Lose sense of meaning, everything’s true,
A bliss utopia, once the mind has gone,
An ecstatic mist where the sun once shone,
Just someone to share it with, maybe?
And so he created me.

Darkness fills the air
Darkness fills the air,
it blankets all and soothes my mind,
Provides the time for me to find,
some comfort in a world where i'm alone,
Water flowing free,
Feel as safe as i ever will be,
And wind that whispers just to me,
Bold cold and silence will never do me harm,
A stubborn ancient charm,
Rugged cliffs they shelter and protect me,
No need to have respect in me,
Just stare out across the eternal vacant sea,
I know that here is where i shall remain,
Where i feel no shame and lesser pain,
Darkness fills the air, ...

Truth
believe what you see,
believe what you hear,
do you believe what you are told?
did you buy it?
or did you let it pass you by?
then why?
open your eyes,
it will disgust you,
but trust me,
like i trust you,
suprise,
will untie you,
believing won't be a matter of choice,
every touch, every taste, every smell, every voice,
What is real, what is not, it's your choice,
stand tall, breathe in and fling yourself back in a gust,
you'll leave it all behind,
something else to find,
leave as though you weren't even there,
go to...

Distant Affection
I don't know where i met her, i think she hunted me,
at first i felt no feelings strong, a mystery was she,
as to how she gained such admiration from all,
all who i know would heed her call, and would not stall-
to win her favour, her mind, or just a mere glance,
perplexed and intrigued, i did watch from a distance,
one by one i saw friends, grow obsessed and fatigued,
over charms which i had yet to receive or believe,
men straining to an aim they longed to achieve,
she was it, their unattainable prize, desire,
yet she did not want them, though i think...

Endless Sea
Reached for grace, but I fell further from it,
Sought your embrace, you wouldn’t commit,
None do, or has, wonder will they ever,
I have never been a part of together,
And as that heavenly glow slowly ekes of out sight,
I feel myself hollow, darkness burns, bright,
And across the void of nothing I see,
Mine own self glaring right back at me,
With a look of disdain and an aurora of pride,
He should have been me, I wished it, I tried,
But he was just, what I could have been,
A confident man, full of goodness so clean,
Am I floating or falling, I...
