POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm far from being the best poet, but every poem of mine was written from my heart. They're all precious to me, and I hope that you'll enjoy reading them.
Spirit of the Tiger
Once the sun sets, a new world comes to life
Deep in the jungle, a predator awakens
To begin her prowl under the cover of darkness
She’s only seen if she allows herself to be on special occasions.
Only the chosen few are gifted with the spirit of the tiger
A perfect balance between human and beast
Her primal instincts urge her for the hunt
To dine upon this grand, cosmic feast.
Rarely does the tiger meddle with the world’s petty conflicts
Yet when her ire inflames, beware her swift strike!
Her ash-colored eyes track every...

Blood Lust
Allow me to introduce this young maiden
A dark-haired prime example of beauty
All bewitched by her have no idea of the nightmare that has just begun
Sit down and enjoy a cup of tea.
There’s more than meets the eye to this quiet maiden
Yet most men don’t mind joining her in bed
She drinks the blood of unsuspecting virgins
Permanently staining her lips red.
A line of copper trails down her chin
As she teasingly licks it off while staring at you
Adding some color to her bone-white skin
There’s no escape from her, no matter what...

Witching Hour
Beware the chiming of the Grandfather clock
For the witching hour has come
Yet there is one dark figure that comes out and walks
Underneath the dim light of the midnight sun.
Mothers hide their children indoors
And even drunkards know to clear the streets
This peaceful village isn’t quite the same as before
On this chilly All Hallow’s Eve.
The hooded lithe figure continues undisturbed
Her haunting voice echoes in the still air
All around her, the dead start to emerge
Her features are hidden, aside from her auburn hair.

In Aeternum
Let your heart be free from its heaviness
And let your soul be cleansed of the darkness
Life goes on, when it’s all said and done
May you rest in peace in aeternum.
Fly away to eternity and don’t look back
Where life isn’t restricted to white and black
Journey to the heavens and live among the stars
Submit yourself to be healed of any lasting scars.
Let your mind be filled with new information
Be at awe at receiving this galactic education
Let yourself become humbled
And clear your conscience of any trouble.
Fly...
And let your soul be cleansed of the darkness

Let yourself become humbled
And clear your conscience of any trouble.

Luminous Days
The darkness has finally passed, and the sun is rising
The journey is a struggle, but I’m still climbing
I long to see the light and feel the warmth on my face
The sunlight twinkles as I’m caught in its embrace.
I’ve finally found the luminous days
Emotions fill me and I’m in awe
That tiny ray of light helped me find my way
This unbridled joy I feel is completely raw.
Whether it’s day or night, there’s always light
Spending my days here feels absolutely right
I don’t know if I even deserve this
Yet the sun reassures with its...

Release
Come closer to steal a glance from behind her shoulders
And look at her voluptuous cleavage peeking through the blouse
Her long dark hair glistens down her back like a waterfall
With a satisfied sigh, she unbuttons her blouse and…
Exposes herself to any who look upon her
A pair of perfect breasts heave up and down with each breath
Her soft honey-toned skin glows under the sunlight
Her slender waist curves to form her supportive hips
Even women look on in both admiration and envy
Whereas men look on in awe and lust
She pays no mind as she...

Once Upon...
Close your eyes, it’s time to sleep
Let your mind go blank as you count the sheep
Embrace eternity and enter the world of dreams
A haven made for you and me.
Let your soul embark on a universal journey
Let your mind be free from any worry
Don’t be insecure; you are worthy
Fill your heart with love and mercy.
Sweet child of mine, I love you so
I wish I didn’t have to go
Yet my time had come, that I know
Forgive me for causing you pain, even if it happened long ago.
Close your eyes, it’s time to move on

Stranded
I’m vainly trying to understand
Why your silence is more deafening than your screams
I have no sense of peace. Am I damned?
Or will I wake up from this dream?
I was aiming for the light, yet the tunnel caved in
And now I’m blindly walking through the darkness
Is my blindness a punishment for a sin?
Will I make it out of hell without becoming heartless?
I’m crawling out of this hole, but I’ve got nowhere to go
I’ve been abandoned; I took my life for granted
What has happened to my soul? I don’t feel whole
This pain is more...

The Light Crusaders
They march on for hundreds of miles
With a single goal in mind
Thousands of soldiers move in single file
To protect their countries and families that they’ve left behind.
Stomping feet and hooves lead them across
The river as they chat: “For God! For God!”
Silver armor painted with a white cross
The army acknowledges frightened villagers with a sharp nod.
With swords in their hands and love in their hearts
They battle to the death for their faith
Blood soaks the grass, and weary souls depart
Hoping to one day be revered as...

The Axis of Love
Your music warms my soul and fills my heart with joy
No matter how low I feel, your lovely melodies will accompany me…
Through my difficult journey, and show me that life is meant to be enjoyed
The chains of my oppression have been cut, and now my soul flies free.
To love and be loved is a wonderful feeling
Knowing that someone wants you in mind, body and soul
When the right person comes, you’ll be granted a healing
And for once you’ll feel whole.
If the world spun on the axis of love
Imagine how happier we would all be
Our souls...

Inner Sanctum
I’ve finally made peace with my regrets
And have lifted the weight off my shoulders
As a faithful follower of light, I feel blessed
To have endured through even the darkest moments like a battle-hardened soldier.
-
I use my tears as portals to visions of a bright future
A place and time where I’m at peace
Where the world is full of miracles and their wonders
All the stress and my regrets are released.
