POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write
Behind closed doors
Winter stands on the horizon
Revelling in heavy winds
Haunting me with ghosts I left behind
Extinguishing the flame
That once warmed my heart
It brings you back
Into my arms
It casts your shadow
In rooms that kept me safe
Your presence is unwelcome
Yet the cold is determined
And as the days move on
With winds that turn my lips blue
Im pulled back to you
In an undertow of lost memories
You have no idea the emotions that overcome me,
As I am pulled unwillingly
Through a door that I left open
And the child...
Revelling in heavy winds
Haunting me with ghosts I left behind
Extinguishing the flame
That once warmed my heart
It brings you back
Into my arms
It casts your shadow
In rooms that kept me safe
Your presence is unwelcome
Yet the cold is determined
And as the days move on
With winds that turn my lips blue
Im pulled back to you
In an undertow of lost memories
You have no idea the emotions that overcome me,
As I am pulled unwillingly
Through a door that I left open
And the child...

Rattle the Chains
I am breaking away from this
I will purge the sickness
the sick addiction inside of me
turning my heart black
Oh, but how I miss the taste and the burn
I miss your presence inside of me
you lovely disease
why dont you run through my veins,
One last time?
My sweet gravity
keep me flat on the ground
return to me
or I will slip through this world
I feel the earth
calling me back to bed
This lifeless force
pulling me into a grave
And it is my own
and I think I love it
and I think I need it
I cant...

Ancient War
There once was a sky
so beautiful and blue
shed skin to the moon
to see the galaxy
at our doorstep
Under the sky
lies forgotten beings
Stand tall like buildings
monuments of leaves
immortal blood
soon to be poisoned by man
the cancer
taking life that is sacred
I feel mother reaching
out of the ground
and wrath like bullets
Fall from the clouds
The parasite will win
but the vessel will be lost in time
so beautiful and blue

I feel mother reaching

Fall from the clouds
The parasite will win
but the vessel will be lost in time

To Julie
You are the light
after a storm
a monument of beauty
in the fog
I want to show you
what my heart can do for you
but its been closed so long
dormant since the storm begun
I picked a flower for you
took a life to show you love
place it on your heart
maybe it will sing for me
after a storm

took a life to show you love
place it on your heart
maybe it will sing for me

feeling
I can feel the tide
pull me in, push me out
over and over
I can feel the rhythm
in the balance between
life and death
The pendulum swings forever
I can feel the weather change
watch mother change her face
for one more day
The night rises
illuminate the ground
watch over your children
and watch them flow
I need to see
all these mortal beings
ancient monuments rise
Above the ground
the law exists
right under your wings
Feel the change
let it stimulate you
pull me in, push me out
over and over
I can feel the rhythm
in the balance between
life and death
The pendulum swings forever
I can feel the weather change
watch mother change her face
for one more day
The night rises
illuminate the ground
watch over your children
and watch them flow
I need to see
all these mortal beings
ancient monuments rise
Above the ground
the law exists
right under your wings
Feel the change
let it stimulate you

Home Sick
Somewhere near a valley
sits a place I'd like to be
calling to me with a familiar melody
singing amongst the trees
The smell of pine floods my lungs
And lifts me towards the sky
admiring the old gods
this is a place I would love to die
So I lay upon the grass
dancing softly in the wind
I open my ears for the sacred song
the one the citys hide from slaves
sits a place I'd like to be
calling to me with a familiar melody
singing amongst the trees
The smell of pine floods my lungs
And lifts me towards the sky
admiring the old gods
this is a place I would love to die
So I lay upon the grass
dancing softly in the wind
I open my ears for the sacred song
the one the citys hide from slaves

Ruins
These walls
my dear friends
holding me tight
as I cave in
Pacing back and forth
following trains of thought
Gaze into the mirror
what side are you on?
Laying on the dirt
inhaling everything
a flood rushes through my head
Waiting for my thoughts
to return to me
my dear friends
holding me tight
as I cave in
Pacing back and forth
following trains of thought
Gaze into the mirror
what side are you on?
Laying on the dirt
inhaling everything
a flood rushes through my head
Waiting for my thoughts
to return to me

Memorial
The flower lives under the sun
each day feeling farther away
it will never know
the beauty shining inside
Whispers floating like shadows
through the trees
the cold will bring this forest
to its knees
So hang your head down
cause not a soul will remember
the light I saw in you
each day feeling farther away
it will never know
the beauty shining inside
Whispers floating like shadows
through the trees
the cold will bring this forest
to its knees
So hang your head down
cause not a soul will remember
the light I saw in you

Awaken
Awaken in flesh
Let star light fall like rain
spread your roots
let the old gods nurture you
Build a temple
Raise the monoliths
create and admire
live and die
Let star light fall like rain
spread your roots
let the old gods nurture you
Build a temple
Raise the monoliths
create and admire
live and die

power in numbers
I wander the path
no one in sight
I found prints in the black sand
emerging hope in my heart
I seek the dark waters
serpent lurking below
have no fear
we bear a similar nature
Ive met many people
seen many faces
few worthy
for the journey I face
Knowledge is power
power in numbers
shine like the sun
in a crowd of wasted flesh
no one in sight
I found prints in the black sand
emerging hope in my heart
I seek the dark waters
serpent lurking below
have no fear
we bear a similar nature
Ive met many people
seen many faces
few worthy
for the journey I face
Knowledge is power
power in numbers
shine like the sun
in a crowd of wasted flesh

An elf in the forest
A wolf on the street
misplacement
removing my heart
Friendship is the illusion
mostly a burden
ill stick to knowledge
my true soulmate
Return to the forest
young eager mind
Follow the river
the father of understanding
A wolf on the street
misplacement
removing my heart
Friendship is the illusion
mostly a burden
ill stick to knowledge
my true soulmate
Return to the forest
young eager mind
Follow the river
the father of understanding

embers
Keeping the fire going
warm and full of light
life brings a chill
the coldest winter I ever felt
With the fire dying out
And the light fading to black
I blew on the embers
Keeping the illusion burning
warm and full of light
life brings a chill
the coldest winter I ever felt
With the fire dying out
And the light fading to black
I blew on the embers
Keeping the illusion burning
