POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I use many rhyming schemes. I like using caesuras and im pretty much obsessed with alliteration. I write whenever I feel inspired and I write to clear my mind.
Am I forgotten?
I give and give
you take and take
when nothing is left
you still want more
So ...
much ...
more ...
Thus, my heart and soul is ripped from my core
providing sustenance for you to gorge.
Maimed..
Mauled..
Matted..
Too grotesque to be acknowledged; now, decrepit and forgotten.

My Reality
Days come and go
Exhausted and well-spent
From work and thoughts of wanting to be dead
Life, such a struggle
A daily compromise
Waiting for the next ball to drop
Hoping for happiness
Not my immediate demise
Though we all know happiness is fleeting
..as elusive as the wind
Acknowledgement of Worth
..now becomes a lament not a wait
Wanting to be irrevocably needed,
Inexplicably loved
Exhausted and well-spent
From work and thoughts of wanting to be dead
Life, such a struggle
A daily compromise
Waiting for the next ball to drop
Hoping for happiness
Not my immediate demise
Though we all know happiness is fleeting
..as elusive as the wind
Acknowledgement of Worth
..now becomes a lament not a wait
Wanting to be irrevocably needed,
Inexplicably loved

Just Feel Safe
In your embrace, i tend to find my escape
from worldly factions and dismal places
with impartial races having depressing faces
and feeling like my life is severely jaded
and i start fading
.... [font=Tahoma,Geneva]away ....
I ask myself "Why do I stay?"
when what you offer
isnt even half of what i deserve,
and you can be such a perve
But i play along too
sending messages and signals
that i want more than just you
Your body is enticing,
not just because of its beauty,
I just feel safe with you
and...

Invisible Scars
Seeing places and knowing people
Worldly faces and exploring ripples
The good, the bad and the blatant indifference
Life is a collection of scars
Invisible scars are left imprinted on our minds and souls
Some a physical bend, a visible reminder
Some a spiritual mend, a mental revolver
I have invisible scars
"An eye for an eye" ?
Well, now, "A scar for a scar"
There are similar battles
But definitely different wars
I cannot express in words, the amount of scars I have acquired
I can, however, say not all...

I am Beauty
On my face is usually a frown
For my world constantly turns upside down
Depression and delusion clouds
Eating and eating thus gaining many pounds
I pray day in and out
For a way to appease my daily gouts
On my knees, on the ground
..my judgement isn't as sound
..as before and I break down
I scream, yell and shout :
I hate this constant moving around
But I (try to)face my tribulations with God abound
Lord, have mercy on my poor low soul
Warm my body, free me from this wretched cold
Please forgive me of my sins current...

Two-Face, Soul-Chase
I say this with every emotion I can muster
The pain is stifled and I cannot trust her
I look for some guidance and reassurance
to keep me at least sane with a few more chances..
I cannot break this Trance
My mental persona takes over
so soon we'll see and know
the path that was always known
Little to me, the Silent Beholder
Hidden in the silver-lining
I was always starting from the Ending
Never the Beginning
Both innocent yet guilty
How do I break the fealty?
I am (in) sane in my...

I Write
For the Reader, I give a glimpse
Into my world of fickle whims
Sometimes Cruelty and Anguish brims
Surreal and fake like the Sims
Stress and worry takes a toll
Rigid from the cold
Within a casting, old
I write from my soul
With emotions that surround
Fidelity abound
Inspired by Life around
Thus, I write for Deep Underground
Mi corazon late lento
Con la esperanza por el amor de retorno
Quiero mi Papichulo
La felicidad es malísimo

Tell him
Tell him that you love him,
He can either say he doesn't or does too.
Tell him that you love him,
End your restless nights pining like a fool.
Tell him that you love him,
Be free from mental chains.
Tell him that you love him,
Or suffer waiting in vain.
So tell him,
We all know it's your number one urge.
Tell him,
"I ...love... you, I've been yours".
He can either say he doesn't or does too.
Tell him that you love him,
End your restless nights pining like a fool.
Tell him that you love him,
Be free from mental chains.
Tell him that you love him,
Or suffer waiting in vain.
So tell him,
We all know it's your number one urge.
Tell him,
"I ...love... you, I've been yours".
