The Danger Zone
This is the prologue to the story I'm planning on writing. If you like it and think I should continue with it, please comment below. It will be very helpful. Thanks!
I never thought it would end like this. Although I understand what I've discovered would cause myself to be in life-threatening situations, I didn't believe this is how I would meet my maker. Trapped under the cold hands of my own best friend with the hostile look of rage glinting in his demonic crimson oculars. I thought it would be a little better than this. I believed, or had at least hoped I would die peacefully. A...

Damaged (Free verse)
Fear.
It clings to my being.
Consumes my soul in it's wrath.
Controls my mind.
Makes me suffer.
Torments me deeply.
Every time I close my eyes.
I can sense it.
Deep within me.
To deep to be caught.
To deep to change.
I am claimed to be weak.
I am claimed to be confused.
All for my lack of smarts.
For my lack in society.
For not being social.
Could you blame me?
Society judges.
They have harsh words,
Just ready to pierce your good spirit.
Just because they don't like you.
They don't have...

Fate
Falling down, deeper, sinking into the painful abyss.
Is this meant for me?
Or have I simply taken the fall for someone else?
Tell me, my friends, have we grown apart?
Our lives have changed so much from our past and we seem not to remember what we meant to each other.
Is this how it ends?
Am I to accept another man's fate, or shall this be my own?
Tell me, my friends, why have we allowed the venom to spread through our veins?
Why have we turned against our allies and welcomed our enemies, leading us to our own demise?
Why have we let this greed,...

Drowning
Hypnotized
Is this life real?
If this is paradise,
Why is it pain I feel?
Drifting farther
in this abyss
awaiting for the feel
Of Death's cold kiss
Guaranteed
Sweet silence at last
Gaining departure
from a haunting past
Getting deeper
pressure higher
Lungs burning
Like Hell fire
Then it arrives
No hatred shown
For I know this fate
Is my own
The last of light
fades away
Signaling my final day
I'm Drowning

No hatred shown

Darkened Rose
Misunderstood, never given a second glance
No one cares about the powers in his hands
Thought evil because of his ways
Not raised right in his younger days
Treated wrong and always abused
His feelings trashed and badly used
Claimed to be spoiled because he was the one they chose
Only for his blossoming rose
That soon darkened over time
Leaving the black petals to die
Once a bright, jovial red
Now that man is gone and dead
Now they must face his wrath
For the red from the rose shall stain his path
Once innocent, now wicked
His bright...

Twisted Bliss (Edited)
Screams from around beg for mercy,
but that is not an option.
In my demented world,
Blood is my single peace.
Cold,lifeless bodies sprawled on the floor,
True fear in every expression.
I hold a knife in my hand,
the blade covered in the crimson liquid.
My eyes are black slits,
The one thing you will see,
With a crooked grin,
As I look down at the bodies.
Children, teenagers, adults, elders.
Not one single soul can escape my grasp.
This agony and torture of innocent people pleases me.
This is my Twisted Bliss.

Daddy's little girl
One simple question,
turns into a battle.
Can't you respect my fricking opinion?
I have needs to you know?
I have responsibilities.
I can't do them.
Why?
Because you're screaming at me!
You box me in.
Yell at me.
Cuss me out.
You think I enjoy that?
Heck no.
I let you do it though.
Knowing since I'm younger.
Since I'm immature.
Since you know so much more than me.
Since your older.
Since my needs don't matter.
Well screw you.
Why don't you listen to my needs.
When the day comes
When I'm older.
When I...

Utterly alone
As I stand here
In this darkened room
No one can hear my cries
My cries in silence
I stare into the mirror
Looking at all my features
I am not skinny
I am not perfect
I am not
The three words I hate
I am not
I feel
So utterly alone
In this cruel, helpless world
That we call home
I get laughed at
I get made fun of
The things I don't get
Well that is perfect
That is skinny
That is everything everyone else wants me to be
I'm tired of all this crap
All this bull
You think I give a care
who has the...

I never hated him
People believe I'm fierce.
Other's believe that I'm a monster of the night.
One that which can't be tamed.
People believe that all I feel is hate.
They don't understand.
That is a lie.
Even though me and my brother constantly fight,
Doesn't mean I hate him.
It doesn't mean I'd rather have him for dead.
It doesn't mean that I like to be alone.
I've never hated Daemon.
I've only hated what he has done.
What he has done to me.
You all believe that I'm filled with hatred for him.
When the truth is....I don't hate him at all.
Only his...

Unknown
Why am I unknown?
I feel like a burden to the world.
Just something weighing others down.
How can I express?
I'm just worthless.
I feel like I mean nothing.
No one cares.
No one cares about me.
I'm just unknown.
I feel like I'm being ignored.
How can I express?
I have a lump in my throat.
From anger.
From sadness.
From pain.
I can't express my pain to you.
Find out for yourself.
I'm not sure what I feel.
All I know is.
Is that I am unknown.
