POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Hmm...
Roof-Top...
I thought the silence would keep me from hurting through every moment
but the quieter I got the screaming grew louder.
This reality is killing me inside but still nothing can cure this.
As I stand on the edge of a roof-top, my heart no longer beats.
My fear has faded just like the times we're together.
You will catch me as I drop into your embrace.
When I am crossing over to where you are my casket will close.
My grave shuts closed.
As your eyes are closing I'm glad I could be your last sight.
My crackling voice was the closest thing to a lullaby....

Known Why
Dispassionate about the way I am treated.
The easiest solution left for me is to become
this heartless, empty machine making cold-hearted calculated decisions.
If that armour shatters will remorse come?
Worn away everything that's true.
You twist and bend to a way you think is right.
Piece by piece can you rebuild something I've carefully sifted to stay apart?
The reason is clear, I won't hurt anymore.
You should've known why,
You must already know.
The cost of my misfortune collects everything I swore I'd protect.
On my knees I'm...

Unconscious
In this dream I'm already tired of happiness.
Surrogates programmed by me.
This place, time moves by my will.
False power my mind believes is true
I'm unconscious, I'm unconscious,
still unconscious.
I'm unconscious.
Shackled to chains that I can't break from.
My voice echoes back to me again, alone.
Divided away from what's real.
I'm unconscious for life.
Connections lost within a fake world.
The sun's rays remembered by my body.
Imitate warmth but I grow colder.
I'm the only one that knows I don't belong.

Dancing On Ashes
I'm sick of all your rules about what I should be doing next.
These great expectations are gladly destroying what is good in me.
These flows find nothing but conflict.
The seed planted but neglected the required care.
Watch and see your beloved flower
withering right before your eyes.
Set my soul ablaze, you're dancing on ashes now.
Steal the spark and hide something I wouldn't call perfect.
What's missing is not important.
You'll replace with what you wish.
Ablaze, ablaze you're dancing on ashes now.
You're dancing on ashes now.
Look...

But...
Are you happy if the sun's out?
I am not, it shows too much for me.
But so are lies spreading like a cancer, infecting to the core, I see all there was.
But so are lies the only comfort easy to duplicate.
But so are lies a slicing knife, tender flesh being split.
The truth is revealing.
But so are lies my cocoon stronger than iron?
But so are lies so fragile, unready to be shattered apart.
But so are lies promise already broken, promise it isn't a mirage.
But so are lies I admire you with the ability to create light fueled by filth....

Desperate Hour
To hurt was my only option.
The struggle I've had to endure was my given strength to keep me going.
Scars always piling over the other.
Scratching deeper into the wounds.
Desperately trying to find the source of this pain.
All I've ever wanted was some form of relief.
Tired of running in circles, trying to catch hold of my breath.
Tired of watching everything slipping through my fingertips.
Can you hear me cry?
If you can won't you show me a sign?
My line is thinning, please I'm running short on time.
I need you in my desperate hour.

You clear your thoughts about last night.
Acting if it never happened.
Holding me tightly as your tears are streaming silently down your cheeks.
I tell you "I love you" but this time your smile's missing.
Where could it have gone?
Now I remember 'Disappear' has come
to take it away.
18:17
You tightly hug my empty body.
Fear sinks in.
I am helpless to do a thing about what's happening.
My company's comfort
Still it's missing. 'Goodbye' nowhere to be found.
The abuse started
a little early...

Suffer
What do I think about all this pain?
I really can't say, I just don't care.
My core's a void that's missing its value.
Hurt all you want I only absorb.
My suffering's a luxury I'm glad to have.
This emotion I feel is precious to me.
A step closer to regret.
A demon deceived with beautiful words.
It said 'Once you're done I'll heal your wounds'
But I don't regret.
When the angels fell I reached out.
Teach me to be a human once more
so I can regret...

This Feeling Has Bugged Me
I take and care for each small object.
A symbolic reflection of a heart in purity
before savagely being beaten down.
I drag this heart against the ground.
With a hope that one day I can smile
without having to think of you.
About how I've always loved you.
If I've ever loved you.
This feeling has bugged me,
I can't tell If it's real.
Written words on blank paper
without meaning behind.
This feeling just consumes me, I'm swallowed whole.
I can't escape.
Their's just too much left unsaid for me to walk away now.

Can you do this for me?
Take me past the line of reality where dreams come true.
Small breath my seduction.
I've never felt this way about anyone.
The way I do with you.
This playful form of pain.
Its trickery makes me break my chastity.
Now it's belonging to her for eternity.
Sway high and sink in.
Just let the waves cradle her slowly.
It leaves me craving to her allure.
Sliding fingers in between moist petals.
The reaction as wild as the seas waves.
Give your love to me in sweet delight.
She has weakness to his open...

Lovelorn
As everything disappeared
a hollow space was left in my heart.
When everything disappeared
a lonesome echo was all that remained.
As time began to pass.
That faint echo began to grow louder.
Oh why should I have to feel this way?
Lovelorn.
A voice in the light so familiar yet also unclear.
It toys around with my heart, entangled in the beautiful illusion.
May I look into the light?
To see who that really is.
A silhouette of who.
I know it's not real
the roles we play today.
But why does it...

Other Drug
One pill of anti-depressants to keep me calm.
Two grams of marijuana for a good time.
Three lines of cocaine as a backup.
Heroin what would I ever do without you?
My desires have locked me up so tightly.
They refuse to call me another human being but that's okay.
But instead they now call me a fiend on the corner.
So I suppose I'll live up to the title that they gave me.
If no ones cares if I'm dead or alive
they shouldn't care what I do my life.
It's already been destroyed.
If emotions were in capsules like any other drug.
I'd...
