POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Been writing songs since I was nine. I can't be the judge of when they started being good, but I have a massive backlog that I'm going to be dumping here. Possibly all of them, even though a lot are rather embarrassing.
In The Light
Do you love?
Do you lie?
Do you lie awake at night?
Do you want?
Do you fight?
Do you do what's wrong or right?
In the light.
You said you love me, but baby is it true?
Do you want me, cause babe, I know I want you.
You told me you loved me, but that was a secret.
I know you're not talking, but why would you want to keep it?
Well do you love?
Do you lie?
Do you lie awake at night?
Do you want?
Do you fight?
Do you do what's wrong or right?
Do you love?
Do you lie? ...
Do you lie?
Do you lie awake at night?
Do you want?
Do you fight?
Do you do what's wrong or right?
In the light.
You said you love me, but baby is it true?
Do you want me, cause babe, I know I want you.
You told me you loved me, but that was a secret.
I know you're not talking, but why would you want to keep it?
Well do you love?
Do you lie?
Do you lie awake at night?
Do you want?
Do you fight?
Do you do what's wrong or right?
Do you love?
Do you lie? ...

Senseless Love
You say love lost its feel.
You say that it's not real.
At the end, you shall kneel.
Cause it's your heart I intend to steal.
It's an ocean of senseless love.
I've had enough of senseless love.
I've built up some hate for you.
Hello, can you hear me?
I've got enough to do.
So don't you try to steer me wrong.
Deceiver, reaper, I feed off your weakness.
All you are will feed this.
Nothing in the trees.
It's all falling to pieces.
Will you die by my hand?
Does anyone understand me?

Kissed By An Angel
How could you be so thoughtless.
Never could be, you brought this.
On yourself.
Maybe you won't remember.
Walking alone together.
On your way to hell.
Now you see the real me.
Standing before you and your desire.
Destiny chained you to me.
Standing in the lake of fire.
Beyond all death.
You steal my breath.
And I'll be yours.
Forevermore.
And who would have thought.
I'd be kissed by an angel.
How could he be so clueless.
Why do they let him do this.
Why does it bring me joy....
Never could be, you brought this.
On yourself.
Maybe you won't remember.
Walking alone together.
On your way to hell.
Now you see the real me.
Standing before you and your desire.
Destiny chained you to me.
Standing in the lake of fire.
Beyond all death.
You steal my breath.
And I'll be yours.
Forevermore.
And who would have thought.
I'd be kissed by an angel.
How could he be so clueless.
Why do they let him do this.
Why does it bring me joy....

Sirens
Hide under the table.
Stand clear if you're able.
It's time for the dearest of us to ascend.
Laughing like hyenas.
The lookout has seen us.
We're coming in hot so this world can end.
Hear the sirens are wailing.
An airstrike inbound.
Look to the sky.
Tell the devil if you see her.
Time to die.
The warrior broke the line.
Look to the sky.
Join heaven's host to meet her.
Time to die.
The Devil of The Rhine.
In the muddied war zone.
One soldier standing alone.
The killing...

I Am Never Alone
It's great to pretend in front of my friends.
But the time has come to not be one.
Now it seems like I, I can say goodbye.
Leave this place behind and though I can't say why.
All these friends of mine I'll see again in time.
Now I know I am never alone.
Not on my own, I am never alone.
I'm never alone, no, no, no.
Never alone.
It's great to meet ends, in fact they recommend it.
But the time has come to unbecome.
And it seems like I'm not in the light.
I can't get you off my mind.
And though I can see why.
All...

What It Takes
People will beat you.
Hurt and mistreat you.
But so far, you've held on.
You don't get to go very far.
Because they know who you are.
But so far, you've held on.
When you're being bruised.
Made fun of and used.
And they just leave you there.
Cause nobody cares.
Enough to pull you up and be your best friend.
So when you mess up it won't be the end.
Do you have what it takes?
Does it take what you have?
Just forgive your mistakes.
It's time to fight back.
As he strikes the final blow. ...

Long Time Of Suffering
There's not enough time in the day.
To help all the ones I want to save.
And every time I turn away.
Someone else is caught in the wave.
Though I try so hard so long.
I may never see an end.
But what else is right and wrong.
Than what hurts or helps my friend.
I will not surrender.
I will never give in.
All the troubles of this world.
Yet I know I shall win.
I will be there.
No matter how far.
Worry not, I know just where you are.
I will be there.
No matter how long.
Stand up straight when...
To help all the ones I want to save.
And every time I turn away.
Someone else is caught in the wave.
Though I try so hard so long.
I may never see an end.
But what else is right and wrong.
Than what hurts or helps my friend.
I will not surrender.
I will never give in.
All the troubles of this world.
Yet I know I shall win.
I will be there.
No matter how far.
Worry not, I know just where you are.
I will be there.
No matter how long.
Stand up straight when...

Kiss Me, Or I'll Kiss You
Could you kiss me right on the mouth?
And wash away all of my doubt.
Oh, can I believe my own words?
Set yourself free to fly like the birds.
They can cage me up and put me away forever.
I'll wait for you even if you never planned on saving me.
Oh, kiss me.
See the smile you'd put on my face.
It is something you could never erase.
I'll be waiting for you to save me.
Oh, won't you kiss me.
Please kiss me.
I could never feel free without you beside me.
If you don't, there's only one thing I can do.
So either...
And wash away all of my doubt.
Oh, can I believe my own words?
Set yourself free to fly like the birds.
They can cage me up and put me away forever.
I'll wait for you even if you never planned on saving me.
Oh, kiss me.

Since When Have I Meant Anything To You
There's no reason to act like you don't know.
Everyone can see that you don't care.
Ignoring me, almost as if I was a ghost.
And if I am, you don't look very scared.
I bet one day you'll wish you had someone like me to show the way.
I won't be there, I'll be laughing and watching you beg and pray.
Since when have I meant anything to you?
Since I can tell the truth.
Since when have I meant anything to you?
Give me some kind of clue.
If you cared you'd be right there, not somewhere else.
You turn your back and walk away,...

Sweet Girl
Won't you help me, friend?
Before I end.
This girl's got me.
In a trance.
I can't dance.
I won't cry once you're mine.
My life's a book.
Just take a look.
I'm here for you like brand new.
Come with me.
You will see.
What I say is what I mean.
If you go away.
I will be in pain.
What can be our today?
You're a sweet girl.
You rule my world.
It's my love from above.
Coming down to the ground.
Harmony, love and peace.
We will be so happy.
Let's...

Cannon Showdown
What am I supposed to think when I'm all alone?
What am I supposed to do so far from my home?
I need some help from someone.
So what am I supposed to do when I'm in trouble?
So what am I supposed to do, I really don't know.
I need no help from no one.
One two.
Three four.
Can you?
See more than-
I can.
See now.
Do you?
Know how to-
Down in the darkness.
Down in the shadows.
When you fight you can't see them all.
Please heed my plea for help.
I can't get myself out.
