Beauty
Beauty is how you hold and carry yourself
It's how you treat people
It's how you love
Beauty is self acceptence
Beauty is in your soul

I know you don't understand me and the things that I do
I shouldn't be judged upon for the things you only assume
My reactions and how I respond to things may be different then your way
But you can't decide and expect me to respond in a way you say I should behave
My life I've lived was different than yours
I've experienced many things through my years
Which has shaped and molded me
By my blood sweat and tears
I wear my battle scares with pride
Which you don't understand
I'm not ashamed of walking through hell and back equiped with a...

Box of Shame
She submitted to his desire
And found she was bound to his darkness
A puppeteers game
After his play
He tossed her back
Into her box of shame

Life
I have learned
That love can come by surprise
Or die in one night
That your best friend can become a stranger
While a perfect stranger becomes a friend for life
If you want to see someone, you have to go visit
Because later may be to late
When someone treats me like he doesn't care
I should believe it
That if my absence doesn't mean anything
Then you're not worth my presence
To be hurt is inevitable
While suffering is an option
That "never again" always happens again
And "forever" does have an end

Sinful Temptations
Her cavern is hidden by an electric blue mist
As you draw nearer
The sound of the electricity creates a hair raising hiss
Dressed so seductively that she lures you in
Into her cavern of flaming sin
She wears her hair so that it creates a shadow across her face
Reaching the ground appearing as black lace
The electric blue mist starts to rise into the air
Creating thunderous blue clouds filled with carnal desire
You know following her would be baneful
She's already lured you in so seductive and sinful
Can't escape from her vibes and...

Sycophant
He's a sycophant who wears
A Mask of Sanity
Nourishes himself from the blood
Of his prey
Who's lives he's seized then challenged
To keep himself insanely sane
Plausible and pursuasive
Cunning hypocrisy
He's wasted count of all his deceptions
He tirelessly wonders
The evil most corridors of his mind
He lost his footing
Unconcerned he's already fallen
Never again to rise
Wailing torment
Vicious laughter
Blood curdling screams
Slain hopes and dreams
Left to decay on the blood soaked ground ...

Forever Embedded in a Poets Heart
A poet may formulate your love
As the body of their poetry
And incorporate your relationship
As a subject in their story
Where every word
Is a description of who you are
You will be imperceptibly affected
Reconstructing the best and worst parts of you into rhymes and times
Pondering upon versus of
Passionate moments
Light hearts and smiles
And the rivers of tears
In the forms of prose
That stretches for miles
They listen very close
To every word you speak

Was She?
Is she the moon
Too shy
To show her face ?
Perhaps you damaged
Her self esteem each time
You called her a disgrace
Was she the bright star
Shining in the night sky?
I watched her fall
After you blew out her light
Have you seen her tears
Fall from her eyes ?
Or was she a tear
Which you never cried?
Was she a voice
That you never hear ?
When she told you
She loves you
Loud and clear
Did you or her mom
Give her her name ?
She only asks
Because she rarely hears you say
Does she...

He threw me in a maze of despair
Ensuring I'd endure nightmarish pain
I've cried out my eyes until Ive faded to sleep from the exhaustion
When the torment became too much for me to take
I've often feared that he would push me too far
Over the edge sharp as razors
Where death waits patiently For my fall
The hands on the clock
Keeps winding around
The second hand ticking
Is the rooms only sound
I'm riddled with wounds
Scabs still seeping
Covered with countless scars
My anger and frustrations are still alive and...

Seductive Dreams
The colors of my
Seductive dreams
Seducing me
To return to sleep
Quiet whispers
Float through
The toxic air
There’s not anything
Left for me
Anymore here
Selection of the music
Is quite good
As for the rest
Is tasteless
Including the food
So forgive me please
If I chose not to eat
Please excuse me
For I’m returning
To sleep
The colors of my
Seductive dreams
So far out of reach
Longing to live again
Longing to be loved
Longing to be....

Mask of Sanity
Her screams of pain
Burst through the seams
Wounds he reopens
That make her bleed
Hatred and jealousy
Is what in his spirit lys
He’s a master of puppets
Hidden in disguise
He punishes her
With his reasoning of wrath Treats her opposite
Of who she really is
Justifies his reasoning
By calling her an outcast
Unfreed from punishment
Of his mothers sin
Separating her
From the herd that feed
Crippled her from
Taking flight
He deprives & neglects
Her of all her needs
Erasing...

I Am Me
I am genuine art
In the most pure
