Poet Introduction
I found myself lost in a low stage in life trying to find myself and some piece of mind. Stranded and stuck in a bind, I'm exploring myself wounded and blind. hoping to see and expand my mind, amongst poets and such kind. Any help or advice would be nice

Malignant creatures
This indecisive decision
Has become a great dilemma
Should I explore through my confusion
Or swallow your sweat saliva
Should I acknowledge your cruel intention
Or flow into a peaceful comma
Long ago while In bed I witnessed something dead inside you,
strange I said in dread
Did I imagine you change or was it in my head?
But through the turmoil I watched you shed
Your mortal coil when you impaled
your rusted dull dagger, further in deeper and farther
How clever it was of you my former lover
Even the echoing sound of your...

Unsheathed
Unsheathed, with defences breached
Take flight, and feel the taste of haste
Bows bent and shots fired
A hopeless war with no time to waste
What side to choose?
When a war insues
Smouldering at our door
like the times before
Are there hints hidden in hues?
or written in clues?
Please I implore,
What is it that we fight for?
Pray tell? what news?
Tis it all a mere ruse?
The lines of battle have been drawn
The hymns of war have just begun ...
Take flight, and feel the taste of haste
Bows bent and shots fired
A hopeless war with no time to waste
What side to choose?
When a war insues
Smouldering at our door
like the times before
Are there hints hidden in hues?
or written in clues?
Please I implore,
What is it that we fight for?
Pray tell? what news?
Tis it all a mere ruse?
The lines of battle have been drawn
The hymns of war have just begun ...

Treacherous delusions
She act untouchable in her delusions of grandeur
but the kinks in her armor
are transparent. She lays wounded at the end of her own dagger
And needs not another drawn upon her in the slaughter
especially by a family member
or a significant other.
I did however came to discover
Her heart and mind burned asunder
In the flame of a former lover.
I however, of her kin and kind was witness to her sin
and sinister grin
during the times of her crime time and again.

DRUGS POEM

Pessimistic thoughts
A shadow casts itself around me
So vague and undefinable
The light in my eye dims into the night
Left to feel ugly and undesirable
Constantly reminding myself of my own vitality
Has left me helpless and desperately cynical
My head is throbbing and my eyes are burning
My ears are bleeding while I hear them laughing
My thoughts are thinking
Of thinking thoughts
I can't ignore them any longer
They tell me to drown my sorrow
The whispers of my mind are deafning
They repeat themselves with the same message ...

Beloved Moonscar
My beloved moon to my stars
haunting is this remnant to my heart
The shards of your memory
Sink when they start to part
like the shrapnel you left inside of me,
For you they shift and shred me apart
My beloved moon to my stars
haunting is this remnant to my heart
You etched your scars into
My flesh like a cheap canvas
Truly your work of art
Was it a means to an end before the start
Haunting is this masterpiece you painted with my bleeding heart
The shards of your memory,
Sink when they start to part ...
haunting is this remnant to my heart
The shards of your memory
Sink when they start to part

On the trail
This path is mine and mine alone
How could you possibly understand?
You are you, and I am I, since day one my life has been nothing but demons
Time for me to move on.
Disappear like a ghost, just another remnant of time from a point long forgotten
But while I am gone, you are my inspiration more times than often
This path is mine and mine alone
How could you possibly understand?
As I walk into the dark. I look to the left,
Nothing is right. Then I look to the right and nothing is left. The bridges that I hold so dear burnt...

Whispering memory
Whispering Memory
Ive been slipping and drifting deeper and farther into dreaming of escaping this reality
I been thinking and hoping of sleeping forever
So I can lie in relief from pain and hostility
I've departed into a peaceful place of
slumber
Only to be awakened by a whispering memory
I drifted towards it to see a creature outside my window
Who's shadow grew taller then its soul
It had come from the pastures of across the meadow
It's eyes seem to swallow me whole
It spoke in a wicked whisper
"I was hoping to run...

Love shattered
I don't know what to say or where to begin
I lived and died to think of how you've been
And I die within a lie to cry in sin
The ghosts of my fiendish fools came to haunt me again
To preserve what was left of me and took me in.
I am sorry I couldn't feed the demon of your expectation
But I hope you hold a picture of me in your recollection
Because the image of you still dwells in my delusion
I sacrificed to much to bask in the enchantment of your passion
The illustration of your beatification of perfection did make us happy for some...

Interlaced
On the outside looking in,
Always aware, but never been
Then came the thether, breaking in
Through time and space
Like a stream of lace
With the grace of unity
Something was there
It was meant to be
Our paths embraced
Interlaced
It's you and I verses the world
Let go of all the small things
There's a bigger picture for our schemes
On the outside looking in,
Always aware, but never been
Just hop in and let us begin
taking what's ours
As the best of friends
...

2005 Football Season
Sitting in your throne
Sorrounded, yet all alone
Old, but still young
Every peak was a valley
And every valley was a peak
Something that laid
beneath the skin
Was denied its final gasp,
No the time has passed
That's it! There's the sun!
The extension of yourself, the 44 magnum!
Young, but ever so old
Still the time had come to pass
on the Legacy of Gonzo.
The final words before
stepping out into the cold
That's it! there's the sun!
The extension of yourself, the 44 magnum!

Pretend instead an end was said
Well I thought to myself I could wish you away
I hope it to be tomorrow someday
And I wish again to forget what you said
But i know you'll still dwell in my head
I thought to myself to move and give sway
Pretend instead that everything's okay
But overwhelming me in rationalizations
Evading the entropy of your convictions
Your excessive excuses and explanations
Where pitiful fragile forms of pathetic attempts
To avoid consequence and make any sense
Of your egotistical ignorance
So I wish again for you to leave me today ...

Pushed away
I saw you last night
And left you today
But only because you pushed me away
So what can I say
That might make you let me stay
To my own dismay
You hurt me that day
In your own twisted evil way
without checking if I was okay
Foolishly I looked into the sky to pray
Wishing to be struck down and lifted away
I can't eat, sleep or think
Left lost and I've begun to decay
And I'd like to say
That it's you who makes me feel this way
But i know that deep down that it's always me
We both know that I'm not...
And left you today
But only because you pushed me away
