POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have been writing for years, and enjoy letting the thoughts flow out onto the page. I would love to write actual books, but have not dedicated the time.
Carriage Of Caution
Imagine, just imagine the world of love comes crashing down
Family and friends moving on from one realm to the next
No one expects it, not even a murderer
Let your mind open up and see through the haze we seek
Open up your mind to a story, the words this tells paint a picture of a horror no one wants
Just to listen to a story we all have a chance to happen, just imagine, let it paint the walls of your mind
Before dawn being awakened for a journey with hours ahead, scenery passing the eyes through windows of clear glass
The road to another opens up with...

Dagger Of Life
Life is a dagger, you either hold the handle or get stabbed by the blade
Every lesson learned is a tighter grip on the handle
Every mistake a little more the dagger cuts deeper
The blade sharpens as a warning as your grip loosens
Every unruly thought seeps out from your mind like a river of tears and blood
The temptations overwhelming, just giving in
Consequences seeping in deeper, the pain lasting longer
A deep line severed by a memory, haunted by a voice echoed into the mind
Everyone making a word they cant keep, breaking down one another,...

My White Rose
The one who can change everything, from my mood, to my world
The one who is always on my mind, my heart and my love
He makes the smile appear so easily, so fast, such joy
My heart once a blackened abyss, depression over taking what once was whole
Full of love but no one to give it to, he shows up, like a white rose in a field of ashes
Walking far and far, through a sea of unknown
Mind always wandering, from point to point, a map with no destination
Such thoughts over come what was never to take, over thrown to opposite islands
Hear my words, my thoughts,...

Gone Girl
Sweet and serene, with a hint of horror
She walks with a grace, above a grave of sorrow
Two steps, four steps, closer to the end
Some believe she is gone, some believe she is still here
Then there is the ones who know, who know she still walks, she was never gone
The ones who knew of her, the soft sweet kind one
The ones who knew her most, a secret never worth keeping
The ones closest to her, they never would have see it coming
She held that secret close and dear to her, never seeing the consequence
The one who loved her more than anything, shamed by...

Hourglass Door
I lay here thinking, listening
The silence burns through my mind, shattering the echos of my thoughts
A bitter harsh lie becomes a truth never thought before
A chance I see the light, so far, so close
Stuck in between time and space, a confusion so strong I loose sight
Falling and standing, both going no where
Taken and thrown, both ending with a pain so high
Emotions buried beneath a land of fake reality, pretend for real
The only escape being a knife and a path
The lonely bridge awaits the ones who come and go
A lonely mind awaits the ones...

Long Lasting
It's now or never, down we fall
Together forever, there is no wall
Take your mind and wander with me
Together forever, you shall see
In the past, we have both been broken
It's time to clean, all the tears that has soaked in
You can't mend, a torn and broken heart
But you can give, a love with no part
I'll risk my life, just to know you are safe
My ever changing life, but you I would never replace
I'll stay by you, now or never, you'll see the truth
My heart will beat for you, even after they are seated in the booth
I'll take my...

Angers Burnt Love
Hot, burning, a stinging sensation
Eyes open wide, but nothing can be seen
Can't breathe, can't see, have to go
Stumbling around, where is she, where could she be
Searching, frantic, a gas burns in my lungs
Walking, running, nothing changes
Yelling, yelling, but there is no answer
Where is she, where, where, where
Searching, searching, everywhere, yet no where
She has to be somewhere, she can't just be gone
Shaking, I'm shaking, there's someone here
Hands, hands on me, around me, shaking me
Voices, voices everywhere, yelling, I need...

Truth In Reality
Selfish, ignorant, unintelligent, cold
It's all me, yet they don't see
Sarcastic, heartless, cowardly, stubborn
I see it all, it's not hidden, but they see a wall
Mean, trash, useless, hypocrite, arrogant
It's all me
One day they'll see, just like the others, they all left
One day they'll know, just how much of me they never saw
My friends choose to stay, but never see how much I hide
Scars of pain lay upon my skin so soft, yet they never notice
Gloves hide what the recent does, but can't hide what is on the inside
But I know that once they...

Eternal Sorrow
Endless we walk the past, to make a future, so it seems
So numb and apathetic, we search in a sea of unknown
Taken are we, to the chants of minds so ordered
Minutes past as days grow old, seconds older change the new
Come and say your hello's as the goodbyes to be the shadow around you
Dissolve into the nothingness of the toxic air around
Shattered are you like the glass of an angel torn from the heavens so high
Forgotten by all but the one who loves, hold so dearly, life too gone
Tonight we linger, shadows our bodies, a night to hold, but throw away...

Memory Of Misery
The path is endless, so it seems
The sorrows, misery, pain and fear
A road to no end, a road that goes down far
The blackened abyss of the ones who tried
Knowing it's too late, knowing there's nothing more
We fall into the endless abyss, endlessly falling
Haunted by the past of new, they crawl around to search
Their eyes stained red from the blood that bleeds out
Their hands reach out, a cry of help that no one hears
There's no one left to help, just more to join, more to pile on
A pile so high of sorrow and dread, over flowing with ones of the...

Never Let Me Be
Take your time, I'm always here
Take my time, I have plenty to spare
Grab my hand, I'm yours to hold
I'll take yours, never go cold
A loving smile, your face so bright
The smile goes away, the sorrow takes over
Walk, run, laugh, cry, together we stay
I tighten my grip, for fear you'll stray
By my side, you stand tall
By your side, I stand tall
Take a breath, savior the moment
Hold your thoughts, blend with time
I say I love you, hope you believe me
I say nothings wrong, but I don't deceive you
We're connected, nothing new...

Little Storage Box
Sometimes I wonder, why am I here
I can leave anytime, yet I stay
I see of no reason, not hate, not love
The kindness of heart, I used to be
A cold black hole, in that spot, it has taken
I see of me now, of what I was, of what I used to be
Kind and loving, not scared of being me
Now I lay, hiding from all
Even myself, if I let them out, I know I will fall
Emotions haunt, my every thought
Physically, mentally, even within
Sometimes I wonder, where's the old me
Sometimes I think, what happened, I can't see
I long to bring back, the...
