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.
Queen Of Spades
Pity me.
Pity me.
Feel sorry for my soul.
Come to me.
Comfort me.
And praise me, young and old.
Give me the.
Love I need.
I'm standing on the coals.
Pity me.
Beautiful me.
Until I've reached my goal.
Oh, little girl.
Head of flame, heart of fire.
You want to save the world.
While hanging from a wire.
Look in your eyes.
I can see defiance in there.
Open wide and swallow the bitter pill.
I tell you this world don't care.
If we live or die.
We'll live...
Pity me.
Feel sorry for my soul.
Come to me.
Comfort me.
And praise me, young and old.
Give me the.
Love I need.
I'm standing on the coals.
Pity me.
Beautiful me.
Until I've reached my goal.
Oh, little girl.
Head of flame, heart of fire.
You want to save the world.
While hanging from a wire.
Look in your eyes.
I can see defiance in there.
Open wide and swallow the bitter pill.
I tell you this world don't care.
If we live or die.
We'll live...

I'll Carry You To Heaven
Come with me.
I'll carry you to heaven.
Come and see.
The future is brighter than hell.
Search for the long run.
The sister you've forgotten.
Come to my mission.
Where not a soul is rotten.
There in the aftermath.
The light will guide us up.
Farewell to the Earth.
As blessings fill my cup.
Come with me.
Take my hand.
Come and see.
The lay of the land.
Come with me.
I'll carry you to heaven.
Love to thee.
I'll show you where to go.
Come with me.
The spirit you...
I'll carry you to heaven.
Come and see.
The future is brighter than hell.
Search for the long run.
The sister you've forgotten.
Come to my mission.
Where not a soul is rotten.
There in the aftermath.
The light will guide us up.
Farewell to the Earth.
As blessings fill my cup.
Come with me.
Take my hand.
Come and see.
The lay of the land.
Come with me.
I'll carry you to heaven.
Love to thee.
I'll show you where to go.
Come with me.
The spirit you...

Bloody Baron
Out of the sky, they see it arriving.
Through space and time, past and future colliding.
Terror on wings, choosing, deciding.
Who to attack, strafing fire dividing.
Out of the vortex of doom.
Into the skies over World War II.
Bloody Baron.
Raised from the dead.
Come for vengeance.
Taking your head.
Bloody Baron.
He has returned.
Fall before him.
The Bloody Red Baron.
Back through the portal, where did he go?
We'll never see him, or so we hope.
Then in the mayhem, he will return.
Over Korea,...
Through space and time, past and future colliding.
Terror on wings, choosing, deciding.
Who to attack, strafing fire dividing.
Out of the vortex of doom.
Into the skies over World War II.
Bloody Baron.
Raised from the dead.
Come for vengeance.
Taking your head.
Bloody Baron.
He has returned.
Fall before him.
The Bloody Red Baron.
Back through the portal, where did he go?
We'll never see him, or so we hope.
Then in the mayhem, he will return.

Light Of France
Fly away, you dove.
To the hands of heaven.
You, the chosen one.
Who fought for us all.
You wished to save the world.
To show us how to live.
But you were just a girl.
Who gave all that she could give.
Now they're burning you at the stake.
They don't believe your words.
Was it an angel or a mistake?
Or madness that you heard.
You were the light of France.
God's gift to all who believe.
We take up arms and advance.
As for your soul we grieve.
You were the holy one.
God's chosen maiden...
To the hands of heaven.
You, the chosen one.
Who fought for us all.
You wished to save the world.
To show us how to live.
But you were just a girl.
Who gave all that she could give.
Now they're burning you at the stake.
They don't believe your words.
Was it an angel or a mistake?
Or madness that you heard.
You were the light of France.
God's gift to all who believe.
We take up arms and advance.
As for your soul we grieve.
You were the holy one.
God's chosen maiden...

Defender
I walk alone on this road.
The only road that I can find.
There are no choices left to choose.
Lost in an unfamiliar time.
I'm left alone to bear this load.
Upon my body and my mind.
My soul is all I have to lose.
I'll be your hope if you be mine.
Defender.
I will protect the world from the likes of you.
And all the universe shall hear my name called.
Defender.
I leave a path of broken pieces of my tired heart.
So sing for me and walk away, leave me to die alone.
This is not the curtain call.
I...

Brainwashed Remembrance
It's alright to be afraid of me.
I'm truly something to fear.
It's okay that you feel that way.
Just because I am here.
You don't have to apologize.
That you are terrified.
It makes sense to me for you to cry.
Moments before you die.
Assassin, killer, more they say.
Sully my name if you will.
But no one will say, as I take your name.
And move in for the kill.
Brainwashed, remembrance.
Forgetting horrible events.
My friends that I've lost.
Enemies I have crossed.
Brainwashed, remembrance. ...

Angels Of Mercy
My father, don't cry for me.
I don't fear the future I see.
I won't be alone anymore.
So Father, accept my plea.
Father, don't die in vain.
Such heartbreak, I can't take this pain.
I make my wish for you all.
So Father, live once again.
Help me rise.
Watch me fight.
Angels of mercy.
Open heaven's gates.
Reaching down to me.
I cannot hesitate.
Angels of mercy.
Take me away.
Fight on without me.
Until your dying day.
Then join with me.
La Pucelle, please don't leave me. ...

Out Of Time
I know the world around you is burning.
Don't be afraid, I won't let it touch you.
As long as the Earth keeps on turning.
I have souls to save and a job to do.
Don't let the adders close to your skin.
You can't give up, you can't give in.
Don't be afraid to admit your sin.
You must not stop fighting till you win.
Take my hand.
Come with me to heaven.
Where God waits for your tired souls.
You've done as you were destined.
You all are braver than you know.
I hear the tracks as the train's drawing close. ...

Never Turn Your Back
Vengeance!
I will have mine.
I will protect the ones I love.
Heartbreak!
All that I've known.
All that ever was.
Claws of darkness reaching for me.
Through chaotic smiles.
And like rain the blood is pouring.
They grin like crocodiles.
Never again!
Never again!
And my foe falls to the ground.
Never turn your back against me.
My blade will find your spine.
Bombs and thunder, going under.
But I'll come through just fine.
Never turn your back against me.

Onward To Hell
When the night wind is blowing.
It's howling before the dawn.
In the distance, glowing.
I can see the early sun.
Through the frost on the frozen panes.
Those old windows are cracked.
I try so hard to forget your name.
Cause I know your not coming back.
And as I reach for you.
Nothing I do.
Will ever bring you home.
So I face the sky.
I whisper goodbye.
It's time to let you go.
Onward to hell my lovely wayward child.
You marched into battle looking for God.
And you took with you your smile. ...

Weapons Free
Twisted and bound before a Witch's mercy.
Dark pyromaniac, the roses burn.
Ousted from grace but time is never with me.
Turn back the clock and tell me what you learned.
Pulse cannons overcharged, the Sweets Witch killed her.
Plastic explosives set to detonate.
Caped hero dashing in with blades of silver.
Red spear in hand prepared, exterminate.
All weapons!
Weapons free!
Set them all off!
Fire and scream!
Perpetual insanity, madness in motion.
Tied up to the puppet master's web of string. ...
