POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Fatigue...
I've watched, was helpless.
Still I watched.
As you fade away.
So lonely.
Crying eyes.
Vision goes black.
Reaching for anything.
Voices.
The cold still surrounds me.
My heart knows the way.
Why!
Just why...
Someone's waiting.
A light illuminates.
The distance keeps growing.
Always growing.
This fatigue.
Will tomorrow...
Tomorrow rise for me?
I cannot rest.
Can't rest until then...
Still I watched.
As you fade away.
So lonely.
Crying eyes.
Vision goes black.
Reaching for anything.
Voices.
The cold still surrounds me.
My heart knows the way.
Why!
Just why...
Someone's waiting.
A light illuminates.
The distance keeps growing.
Always growing.
This fatigue.
Will tomorrow...
Tomorrow rise for me?
I cannot rest.
Can't rest until then...

Winter Lantern...
To tear apart what we believe.
In hopes of finding comfort.
Another way to live, without relying always.
Trying to see differently the world, that's destroying us.
Divides us once more.
Our time's almost over.
Somehow it changed.
From a haven to a tomb.
Still the promise remains.
A fire always dies whether or not we're prepared.
To face the inevitable dark.
Goodbye.
Choosing the easiest way to leave.
Losing hope, you stray believing.
Mercy involves a price to pay.
A value twice more than you own.

A Fire Burns Above...
I hold you like water.
So delicate, so calm.
When your smile glows
as constellations in the sky.
A fire burns above.
Your cheeks glow
like sparkles across the sea.
A light shines a pale hue.
Reveal to me a way
to rejoin you.
Endlessly chasing the horizon...
So delicate, so calm.
When your smile glows
as constellations in the sky.
A fire burns above.
Your cheeks glow
like sparkles across the sea.
A light shines a pale hue.
Reveal to me a way
to rejoin you.
Endlessly chasing the horizon...

Life's A Fiction...
I fall in an endless pit with a purple haze.
Fiction and reality entwine before me.
Phantasmagoria fabric placed on my face.
Obscuring the direction I'm taking.
A shroud for the dead before the coffin's closed.
It's a coma-like state.
The lights and voices in the distance cry.
I'm suspended and moving.
Strapped and sedated, I pretend I'm unaware.
My mind is a whirlwind of emotions now
and it's hard to regain control.
Life's a fiction where the protagonist's stuck in limbo...

So It Hurts...
What does it mean to say 'I'm okay...'
Should I shamelessly show off my scars.
Say I'm stronger than you'll ever be.
Due to the fact I've more scars than you'll ever have.
But still it doesn't make me feel any better,
It certainly doesn't help me get over it.
If I'm really as strong as I claim to be
where the fuck was the strength when I really needed it.
What's done is done, can't change that fact.
I thought I could move on but I only stalled.
The past conflict with what is yet to come.
Ruining any chance I get to start again.
And...

Cherries, Carcasses and Cotton Candy...
There was once an old cat who was missing its right eye.
Yet everyday it continued on as usual.
All the other felines thought lowly of this particular one.
The malice could be seen seeping from its eye socket.
Ew, ew, eww...
Gross...
The first was a proud ginger tom, beloved by all.
It had a nasty habit of helping those it came across.
Having felt obliged, it followed our old cat by request.
Sadly, that was the last time anyone seen its ginger pelt.
Claws glitter in the pale moonlight.
Carp unaware in the shallow waters....

Final Farewell...
When is the right time.
When is the perfect moment.
Yet the doubt lingers still.
Just waiting for me to slip up.
How I stood frozen as the chance passed me by.
Every inch you drift further away from my reach.
Each breath escaping my lungs brings me closer to death.
Paralyzed and mute I felt when it mattered most.
Running out of time.
Abandoning my life line.
Desperation has no limit.
Judging from what my eyes see.
A whirlwind in my head leaves me blind.
My final farewell.
We dispel. ...

Sturdy...
The day breaks yet somehow still remains whole.
The day breaks, still remaining, while I'm crumbling down.
Is the spirit as sturdy as a promise?
Which is easily broken.

Two Crows...
When I bleed do you appreciate.
When I need you most you're gone.
If there's love in what I'm forced to endure.
I question whether or not it's all worth while.
Two crows in the rain.
Stand together in the cold.
Oh what schemes could be behind those beady little eyes.
I get lost in the void and am left without choice.
Oh what schemes could be behind those beady little eyes.
You force my voice, skilled ventriloquist.
The strings are pulled on my wrists.
Your narrative is accepted as what's truth.
No matter what the heart...

Ocean Between Us...
The sirens sang a song I tried to ignore.
Through empty lies I'm content enough with falling apart.
Laying breathless, sleep paralysis.
Keeping conscious while listening carefully.
Lucid dream to escape reality.
There's someone hurt somewhere in a world beyond my control.
The guilt decaying into the core of me.
The very core of me.
There isn't enough forgiveness to go around.
So I guess my best bet is to let it slip away.
Slide and forget till it eventually returns.
I can't pretend forever with these ghosts.

Shroud...
After all I've done to prevent the wrong.
From breaking the bottle in which it's placed.
I see you there, hiding in the dark.
It's safe to come out.
Safe to come out.
Beyond the veil the truth is bitter.
A shroud removed before your rebirth.
Please be okay.
Take care of yourself.
Yourself's all you have so value your worth...

Broken Family Matters...
They seemed the type to swear a love that lasts
but as time flew by it made things worse.
Smiles are a thing left in the past.
It couldn't calm how they'd always fight.
With screams and shouts coming from a happy home.
The streaming tears of a child upstairs.
Facing the choice to take a side.
No longer an angel with both wings.
What am I supposed to do during these times.
Through her tears it became so clear.
The dear she'd known is no longer there.
A future is now left in uncertainty.
Carefully deciding...
