Poet Introduction
Hmm...
A Silhouette...
I fell back, broke apart and was left mostly damaged.
A fragile piece that can't be restored.
The value of living is threatened before I'm driven insane.
Chaotic minds are unpredictable.
The sound of glass cracking is something I can't get used to.
How much can I take before breaking?
If I don't know what I'm doing does that make me so dangerous?
It's the one thing I'm certain of.
The shroud is removed and I'm reborn again.
However it isn't how I pictured it.
Should I turn around from here?
There isn't any direction I can...

Little star...
On a cold starless night, there stood a girl in a white dress.
In her hands, what she held, made the skies jealous.
It was here she believed in magic of long ago.
May I have this wish, I wish tonight.
Oh sky without a star, listen to my story of heartbreak.
Is this diamond a fair enough trade?
I believe in childish things because it's all I have left...
Can I place the first evening star?
Fall for me little star.
Please, I need my wish to come true.
Just appear and leave as quick as you came.
A single tear is all I ask to know...

In His Eye...
There was something in his eye I could never forget.
Somehow familiar yet different in every way.
Fallen victim to the lie, bitten and poisoned.
Suicidal tendencies begin flooding his mind.
I couldn't bare to look but I wouldn't turn away.
Watched him die and the impact made me regret not doing something more.
Dangled from the branch, the same look in his eye.
Caught a glimpse of peace in his lifeless face.
Why is it you're appreciated the most after the moment you've died.
Suddenly they care but at this point it's too late.

Canvas...
I let go and allowed myself to get swallowed whole.
To become this hollow reflection.
The weight of reality is too much for me to bare.
My light distantly fades with my tears.
Life isn't hard but harsh.
There's always a silver lining hidden somewhere we're afraid to look.
Strife and sorrow collide, it's crushing me from within.
Slowly I crack.
To take control and alter my outcome.
If such power existed, I'm uncertain.
A selfish wish for a futile purpose.
My guilt would certainly eat me within.
Death is easy but the choice....

The distance is testing my patience now.
Though I refuse to give the satisfaction it expects.
My heart is intimidated by the space between us both.
Still the thought of you is enough to get through the day.
When I hear the raindrops it becomes clear.
Some things are meant for change and forced to be apart.
The hardest thing for me to do is convince my heart.
Especially when it firmly believes we never should have changed.
Before we had to go our separate ways.
I secretly wanted us to be together.
That moment has now been made...

I heard your name, that's when I knew it was you.
The one my time was meant to be spent to.
That moment you became mine felt so right.
You've got me grinning like an idiot each day.
I couldn't believe I've been made a fool.
Seems my taste in ladies is sweet but quickly turns sour.
Such a pretty waste, lady don't you understand.
Your deceitful smile no longer holds true to me.
The kindness you once gave me.
Itself was a lie.
The truth is a bitter mistress
but more faithful than you could ever be...

My blood is so lovely.
The artery, gushing so much now.
I grow colder.
My head is spinning.
Heartbeats are so rapid.
Hot tears.
"Hush, hush darling..."
"Hush darling..."
I place my palms in the pool.
To reach for me.
I don't want to leave just yet.
The warmth feels so good.
I slipped away.
"Hush, hush darling..."
"Hush darling, close both those eyes..."
"Hush darling..."
The blood.
I sinked into its warmth.
I sinked and closed my eyes...

Am I so different.
When I fell apart and became colorless.
Did you gain sorrow from me?
Am I so different.
The instant I get close, I'm pushed away.
A fragment of you exists within me.
Like it or not, I just don't care.
Without a single tear and goodbye.
I've fallen out of the reach of you.
Questioning whether or not I want to go on,
carrying what you did to me.
I'm tired, I am.
When tomorrow comes.
Enclosed in captured space.
For once I can say "This belongs to me..."
Longing for the loneliness.

Feel Lost...
Feel lost.
Feel lost and hollow more than you can imagine.
Deep desire.
Deep desire to believe what lies beneath will tell what's true.
Sources that know me better than I could know myself.
Forces me to become anything that you wanted.
I seen the piece of me to discard because I couldn't look back.
It's been me ignoring your ideals.
Your sense seems so obscure.
Sources say no matter if my heart should tell another story.
Forcing the better parts of me to be so corrupted.
Prove me a lie.
I'm no different.
No different from you....

Do tell what's wrong with this.
Little children joining hands around a flame.
The streets are littered with skulls.
Drawing with markers made from severed fingers.
Playing games I too enjoy.
Murder in the dark, execute who's accused.
This demented world I see.
Was created once twisted with demons from wicked dreams.
My excitement can't be contained.
Headless dogs lay bleeding on the ground.
We all must wait our turn.
The sight of blood makes me lose control.
A moment of twisted bliss.
The razor's kiss slitting across your throat....

Miracle...
The words are floating, if I try to grab they disappear.
Years with this feeling it breaks me down but I stay strong for you.
To break from this feeling and maintain what we have, can it be done?
Making the right choice for something like this shouldn't never be so hard.
Who am I fooling in believing what I'm feeling is the same as her?
My fake secret wraps around her so tightly.
The look she gave me, speechless.
My heartless expression only tears apart me from you.
Even if we wanted to we can't pretend what's done yesterday is forgotten.
I do...

Prayer...
My written letter to God tell me why I'm denied peace?
Maybe it be better to lay and die believing I couldn't carry on anymore.
Will I be welcomed through your heavenly gates.
Once you review any of my choices, I know I'm the one at fault.
For sure this soul is battered very badly.
Beyond repair that I'll accept.
Won't you do the same?
Am I supportless?
My faith to you is unshaken, I'm still praying.
Admist the darkest of my days you're ignoring my prayer.
Priority in the mix among the flock, I'm the one left out.
I was forced to...
