POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
The goodbye
For a moment I thought I smelled you in my sheets
My heart stopped but yet it still beats
I sunk my face deep within the threads
Remembering the details of your face; every word you've ever said
Fragments of memories speed by my eyes
Shaking at the terrible way you decided to say goodbye
I tried to reach out and grab the scene
But some times you have to wake up, and remember it's a dream
My heart stopped but yet it still beats
I sunk my face deep within the threads
Remembering the details of your face; every word you've ever said
Fragments of memories speed by my eyes
Shaking at the terrible way you decided to say goodbye
I tried to reach out and grab the scene
But some times you have to wake up, and remember it's a dream

Lovers quarrel
I wish I could make you scream and send you away
You forgotten soul, your mind went astray
The echo in your heart
Breath life away
Hold your head up high
Baby stay here for a bite
I wish I could remember your name
Replay my thoughts
I wish I could see those eyes
As your body I've come to tame
Don't forget this night
For my pulse shot high
Don't forget these sheets
I don't want to be alright
I saw something in the midst of your eyes
Something so lonely you yet to disguise
I vowed that day I'd never lose sight...
You forgotten soul, your mind went astray
The echo in your heart
Breath life away
Hold your head up high
Baby stay here for a bite
I wish I could remember your name
Replay my thoughts
I wish I could see those eyes
As your body I've come to tame
Don't forget this night
For my pulse shot high
Don't forget these sheets
I don't want to be alright
I saw something in the midst of your eyes
Something so lonely you yet to disguise
I vowed that day I'd never lose sight...

Boiling anticipation
This is not a nightmare
It's far from that
Anticipation boils under my skin
Light seems to be piercing through the darkest places in my mind
I can't sit still
I can't help but breath rapidly
I can't help but be afraid
But in the most pleasant of ways
Id wander blind if I knew you were walking near by
I'd trust you to take the blindfold from my eyes and grace me with your face
For me to melt within your emerald jewels
And fall at your feet
To have you pick me back up
And tenderly kiss my cheek
It's far from that
Anticipation boils under my skin
Light seems to be piercing through the darkest places in my mind
I can't sit still
I can't help but breath rapidly
I can't help but be afraid
But in the most pleasant of ways
Id wander blind if I knew you were walking near by
I'd trust you to take the blindfold from my eyes and grace me with your face
For me to melt within your emerald jewels
And fall at your feet
To have you pick me back up
And tenderly kiss my cheek

Memories
I wish I was laying with you instead of these pillows and sheets
I want to put my fingers in your hair and feather trough every strand
For you to press your hand on my cheek And kiss my nose
You'd lay with me once again tangled in blankets
Wrapped in the warmth of your body and your faint breathing
I want to be able to hear you whisper the words 'I love you' again
I'm begging you to keep haunting me
I want to put my fingers in your hair and feather trough every strand
For you to press your hand on my cheek And kiss my nose
You'd lay with me once again tangled in blankets
Wrapped in the warmth of your body and your faint breathing
I want to be able to hear you whisper the words 'I love you' again
I'm begging you to keep haunting me

Why
What did I do wrong
What have I done that people always leave me for
Being cheated on and left behind
Always wallowing
Always wondering
Always worrying
Just someone please
Don't leave me
I don't want to be alone anymore
I crave your touch
I keep finding myself afraid of the possibilities
But I don't find myself afraid to jump
Please don't leave me
Someone
Dear god
Don't leave me
What have I done that people always leave me for
Being cheated on and left behind
Always wallowing
Always wondering
Always worrying
Just someone please
Don't leave me
I don't want to be alone anymore
I crave your touch
I keep finding myself afraid of the possibilities
But I don't find myself afraid to jump
Please don't leave me
Someone
Dear god
Don't leave me

I'm not so sure
As I lay down I can't help but think to myself
My past, my present, my future
Each one terrifies me more and more as the days go on
I can't help but indulge myself in the bitterness of my past
What if I had just changed one small detail...
Would I have been better?
For the road I walk on now I don't know where I'm going
I just hopped on and ran with it
And that's all I can keep doing
Running
My future is one horrifying thing
I'm not sure what it holds
I'm not sure I want to know..
I just want to keep running
And running
Til I'm...

Sweet sadist
I've been praised by a sadist
Why does it feel so comforting?
While he kissed my neck
He lapped up my tears
While holding my wrist
His fingers left imprints
He'd lay his hand on my head
And call me his 'precious girl'
He'd dance with me in moonlight
But drop me as the climax
I've been praised by a sadist
And it was the sweetest pain to be felt
Why does it feel so comforting?
While he kissed my neck
He lapped up my tears
While holding my wrist
His fingers left imprints
He'd lay his hand on my head
And call me his 'precious girl'
He'd dance with me in moonlight
But drop me as the climax
I've been praised by a sadist
And it was the sweetest pain to be felt

Three souls
Can you hear the voices?
Can you hear their cries?
Do you know they're with me?
Watching you through my eyes
Do you know they're in my head?
Do you know sometimes they take control?
Do you know there's more than one of me?
Do you know I have three souls?
They talk to me you know
Tell me to do bad things
It really scares me
When one of them starts to sing
Knock knock; I'm in your head
Bang bang; I want you dead
I'll kill your family, friends too
But who I want to kill, is you
I tried to ignore them
I swear at first I tried...

Talk to me like the moon
Talk to me the way you talk to the moon
I'd like to see you close your eyes and smile like that
And once you open your lids
The galaxy will reflect back at you
Take me into the night with you
Show me you need me
Like the stars need the moon
Maybe forget the silver stars
And let's lay under the black sky
Time doesn't exist in this moment
I may not say much--
Or give you the reassurance you'd like
But neither does the moon
Tell me all your little boarder line things
So I may see you the way you do
You may forget that I'm...

Take me back to December
I've depended on you
since I could last remember.
We were trickled in snow
according to December.
Frost bite noses
and flushed pink cheeks.
I thought we were playing a game,
but you went missing; in hide-n-seek.

Kiss of death
She had,
A kiss of death
I pulled away and touched my lips
Cool to the touch
But she was there; breathing; alive
She had died years ago
Now living in a shell
She wouldn't even call home
Her eyes filled me with such sadness
That I had never known before
It was her whole life
So as I sat there feeling my tingling lips
She stared blankly out the window
Without even having a thought
A kiss of death
I pulled away and touched my lips
Cool to the touch
But she was there; breathing; alive
She had died years ago
Now living in a shell
She wouldn't even call home
Her eyes filled me with such sadness
That I had never known before
It was her whole life
So as I sat there feeling my tingling lips
She stared blankly out the window
Without even having a thought

Grotesque and strange
Oh, my dear
You seem to have fallen for the grotesque and strange
She speaks of moths and white screens
And you are standing ankle deep in her woes and screams
So putrid her eyes filled with despair
Her spine cracked and bent in ways inhuman
Spitting vile words she hummed,
"When I saw those tears, the sadist in me gets aroused."
Taken aback; drenched and impure
Her skin began to crawl with maggots I'm sure!
How could this be?
To fall in love with a psychopath
You seem to have fallen for the grotesque and strange
She speaks of moths and white screens
And you are standing ankle deep in her woes and screams
So putrid her eyes filled with despair
Her spine cracked and bent in ways inhuman
Spitting vile words she hummed,
"When I saw those tears, the sadist in me gets aroused."
Taken aback; drenched and impure
Her skin began to crawl with maggots I'm sure!
How could this be?
To fall in love with a psychopath
