POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
AntiHero of Hades
your purpose, little spark;
Harness all that you are,
all that I have made you to be.
You will find your fire
and you will bring forth a great ignition.
You will be the Phoenix of my domain.
You will rise from the ashes of the Underworld
and all of Olympus
will fall from the sky,
By your hand.
You are my design.
Harness all that you are,
all that I have made you to be.
You will find your fire
and you will bring forth a great ignition.
You will be the Phoenix of my domain.
You will rise from the ashes of the Underworld
and all of Olympus
will fall from the sky,
By your hand.
You are my design.

Missed
I miss you in the night
I miss you in the darkness that envelopes me while I lie in my bed, eyelids peeled back, wide.
I miss you in the shadow creeping up my spine, every crack in my wall
I built inside my head,
shrouded by it all.
I miss you when I feel the sun rays
pierce my skin in the summer days,
and I feel like an insect,
searing with pain, gifted to me
through the lens of a magnifying glass.
Under a spotlight,
invisible and deprived.
The shape of you, torn from my chest. Arms devoid of your...

Hard Landing
"your comfort zone is not always safe"
~LBL
They say
"time flies when you're having fun"..
But my time is fleeting
while I've been on the run.
I once sought out the source
of the calling echoing in my chest.
These days I evade
The course the river takes
In fear I will be led to the deep ,
Swallowed up in the raging waves.
I've tried to survive in existence
Terrified of change.
When this structured path
I've built my self
Has a foundation that's decayed,
I am only...

Lost & Found
Sitting at the table
Gambling with my soul
Shitty cards between my fingers
Body growing old
Length of the days begin to shrink ...
I need one of them
Because of how I think
The screams inside the darkness
Are bone shattering and shrill
This descent into the madness
Is a fucking thrill
Swimming in the endless sea
It Cuts and burns like glass on fire
Time is ticking , fleeting
Getting down to the wire
Bottles line the beach
Pieces sting like razor blades
But The shore is always out of...

Tell me a story
Of a castle in the sky.
Show me a memory
Of eyes that didn't cry.
Tell me i won't get bad again,
Please tell me
I won't lose control this time.
Show me what reason
There is to fight.
Help me carry onward
Or lead me to the light.
Give me just one open door.
Help me build a better life
Cuz i don't want this one
To pass me by no more.
Tell me a tale of stars
Shimmering in the night.
Paint me a picture
Of cotton candy colored clouds
Brushed across the sky.
Show me that...
Of a castle in the sky.
Show me a memory
Of eyes that didn't cry.
Tell me i won't get bad again,
Please tell me
I won't lose control this time.
Show me what reason
There is to fight.
Help me carry onward
Or lead me to the light.
Give me just one open door.
Help me build a better life
Cuz i don't want this one
To pass me by no more.
Tell me a tale of stars
Shimmering in the night.

Of cotton candy colored clouds
Brushed across the sky.
Show me that...

Forgive me
I was just a diagnosis
For so many years.
Not even human,
But drowning in tears.
And I was heartbreak
After heartbreak away
From becoming this mess
I am today.
I have been brave
for an awfully long time
But no one understands
This pain I feel inside.
And I cannot fight forever
But i will as long as I live
Even though
There aint no happy endings
I just hope that by the time
I leave this world
You'll have forgiven me.
For so many years.

Lost
I lost myself today
Cuz the medicine
Doesn't take the pain away.
I pinch my skin
Just to feel.
Im hallucinating again
And i know
None of it is real.
I laced up my shoes
And went out the door
Walking for hours and
I don't know where I am anymore.
The years they fall and
These feelings will soon subside.
I remember the first time
My heart broke...
That was the day
That i died.
With all that I've become
Soon I'll have my bitter end.
Eventually, everyone I love ...

Masterpiece
staring at the stars
in the middle of the night.
Fingers tracing scars,
memories flash across my sight.
I've done things
i'm not proud of
just to fit into a crowd
i thought i belonged to.
Sometimes i wish
i could grow wings, fly far away
like butterflies do.
looking into the sky,
feeling rather alone.
sitting, wondering why
sometimes HERE
doesn't feel like HOME.
half of me stands up,
willing to risk it all...
risk it all on love.
the other half,
constantly lies down, ...
in the middle of the night.

You...
just like the moon
makes the pulse of the tides,
your very breath
makes every beat of my heart
that keeps me alive.
just like the thunder
pounds through the air,
your voice,
it soothes me
in my darkest hour.
just like the stars
burn in the sky,
your eyes,
they light my path
when i have lost my way.
just like a summer breeze
rolls in through the trees,
your touch
is so warm,
it melts this heart of mine.
just like the sun
rises in the east...

A Letter for the Devil
I do not come bringing Holy Water
But to tell You
Your armies cannot keep me
From entering your kingdom, ablaze.
And i do not come to save any souls...
I come to claim YOU.
I bring my dearest demons,
the ones inside my head.
And they are restless.
Their shadows have been dormant
For an awfully long time.
I have come to bring you down.
So, Devil...
I yield you this warning:
I have come to fight.
if you send any to stand in my path,
I will leave none alive.
I've come to claim...

So I Became...
Why should I apologize for being a monster?
No one ever apologized for making me this way..."
~Joker~
My heart
once feared the shadows.
So it became Pitch Black.
I was once scared
of Demons.
So i put mine on chains
and gave each one of them
a name.
I used to worry
about the possibility
of Monsters
underneathe my bed.
But I embraced the ones
inside my head
and Became one instead.
And when my screams
grow silent,
My thoughts
get rather violent.
