POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I've been writing for a while now and really enjoy it. I hope my writing is relatable and understood. Small significant wounds relentlessly is how these demons die.

Passionate Pirate
Every day of a life sentence
I built walls
From my misery.
Reinforced the walls
With hope.
Politely requested my demons to
Become my gaurd.
Suddenly you appear,
Strutting right through my defenses,
Acting like they are insignificant.
As if it didn't take
Years to build
Layer by layer
Using my
Tears
Pain
Sorrow
Anger
Betrayal
Shame
Like glue
Believing no one would be ...

Burning Butterfly Wings
There were never any butterflies
with you, there was only fire.
My Lord, the burn
it was so exquisite.
Barriers turn to ash.
Desiring the burn to continue...
Dreaming of becoming the burn...
Demanding the burn catch fire,
So it could become the Refiner's Fire.
Instead the embers buried
themselves inside butterflies wings,
Kindled little by little
Until the butterfly's wings are
Just grey ash.
Is there any hope of a...

So it could become the Refiner's Fire.

Kindled little by little

Crimsin Lover
Finding me in my shadows
Of disquiet,
creation,
and passion.
His gentle predator joins me
To fight
demons
By my side.
Helping to keep them from
Picking me apart like the
Crows do to a
Discarded carcass.
Inspiring me to write my
Affection for the sin
I find with you
In crimson ink; it
Bleeds from my mind, and
Drips onto the white sheets.
Refilling the ink in the mind
With your voice...
Of disquiet,
creation,
and passion.
His gentle predator joins me
To fight
demons
By my side.
Helping to keep them from
Picking me apart like the
Crows do to a
Discarded carcass.
Inspiring me to write my
Affection for the sin
I find with you
In crimson ink; it
Bleeds from my mind, and
Drips onto the white sheets.
Refilling the ink in the mind
With your voice...

A Spiders' Life
Sucluded in the shadows
Crafting webs of justification.
Mind curling into itself,
Like a spiders' legs when it
Accepts the grim reapers' sithe.
Lacking the ability to socialize.
It seems mundane,
But its sucking my
Insides dry.
Not much inside
this black and white existance,
But brilliant sparks of color
That I cannot imagine
Living without.
Then there comes this
Irksom spider,
Ready to sip your color
From my painfully
black and white world.
