POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write songs of the heavy variety, intended to be screamed. Poems come to me erratically, and I'm writing a book. I'd appreciate ANY feedback.
Blue Skies Over Green Hills
Verse I
Think Of Things,
Things that matter,
things that don't.
Things you're missing,
things you won't.
Look up to the skies,
at this wonderful world.
It's Beautiful, Brilliant, and Bold.
Verse II
Saturation !
Aspiration !
Full Of Colors And Tones.
Do you see it yet?
Verse III
Oh No !
You can't hurt my ego.
You don't phase me bro.

Scream Your Voice
Verse I
Open my eyes and lay me to sleep,
All of these dangerous secrets I keep.
Promise me your world, and that you'll be mine
I'm faithful to you until the end of time
Chorus Part I
Stand up and SCREAM for what you believe in!
This is your life !
This is your choice !
Don't be unheard
This is absurd !
Be unafraid to Use your voice !
Verse II
When you're good to me,...
Open my eyes and lay me to sleep,
All of these dangerous secrets I keep.
Promise me your world, and that you'll be mine
I'm faithful to you until the end of time
Chorus Part I
Stand up and SCREAM for what you believe in!
This is your life !
This is your choice !
Don't be unheard

Be unafraid to Use your voice !

Apathetic Heart
Slit my wrists, and let me bleed black
harmful words, never taken back.
Blinded by hate, and consumed by fear.
Somebody get my the FUCK out of here.
Cuts like a knife, and bleeds like a scar
In my minds eye, I won't go far.
Wounds so deep, that unable to heal.
Sometimes I wish that I could feel..
I CAN'T
MAKE IT
THROUGH THIS!
I'M FEELING ILL INSIDE!
TERMINAL THOUGHTS, CONSUMING MY MIND!
Lost.
Without...

High School Reject
I'm the High School Reject
Didn't Go to College Cause I Just Didn't Care..
Lazy attitude, with no motivation.
no, I just don't care.
coasting through life with blinders on.
Just a high school reject.
With nothing important to say.
could have been a doctor, or a lawyer of wrong.
But as a high school reject could I worry at all?
I'm not the kind of person you think about
don't even see me, it's like I'm not even there.

Out Of My Mind
Verse I
I'm going out of my mind.
Out on a permanent vacation.
And no, you can't bring me back.
NOT EVEN WITH SEDATION!
Chorus
You've driven me out
now see what I feel
this truly was more
than which I could deal.
Which must have explained
why I could not heal.
This is to much !
They said !
It can not be real !
BUT IT WAS !

Parents
Parents
Especially the dysfunctional ones.
Even when their heart and minds are right they still are horrific.
I don't think they mean to.
Or at least most of them.
But somehow no matter what you try to do to avoid it.
No matter what you do, nor say, you can't get out of it.
You WILL emotionally scar and damage your children beyond repair.
As I said. It's unavoidable.
That's how we form our own parental ideals. PURE RESENTMENT.

I'm Incomplete
Verse One
WITNESS YOURSELF !
Bleeding black and you don't know why !
That cold chill up the back of your spine !
SEEN IT BEFORE 1,000 TIMES !
Chorus
I'M INCOMPLETE
WITHOUT A GRIP
A FUCKING CLUE
WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU
LOOK INTO MY EYES
YOU'LL SEE THAT I DESPISE
THE PERSON THAT YOU'VE BECOME
THE MIRROR SPEAKS THE TRUTH
I AM A WASTED YOUTH
DAMNED...

Can't Beat The Legends Rap
all the rappers in the world
haven't heard what I've been told
by the legends and the kings
should I tell you these things?
Biggie got shot

but did any of you come to think of who
was the one that did the shooting
the gangsters rebooting
Tupac aswell
The world is going to hell

No, not the rapper, not 50 cent.
he dedicated his name to him
just out of...

The Reaper Comes For Everyone
I know I'm going to go.
I know it won't hurt.
but I feel it coming.
and when I know there's nothing I can do
to stop me waiting, waiting on every minute.
or from coming at all.
It makes my hairs stand on end.
I feel it.
Something is WRONG today.
It's as if, everything I do has a mystery to it.
like living in a horror movie.
Time slows down,
and I can feel my heart pounding.
wondering what it is that's going to get me.
Terrified of the end.
I know there's nothing beyond.
"Once, you're dead,...
I know it won't hurt.
but I feel it coming.
and when I know there's nothing I can do
to stop me waiting, waiting on every minute.
or from coming at all.
It makes my hairs stand on end.
