POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write only when I get inspiration. I usually filter my poems around hatred and loss. But more recently I have been able to filter them through hidden desires.
Past the Flame
So here's where I lay
Grass and flowers seem to enjoy my stay
Yet for some reason I know they lie
So I stood up and watched the clouds by and by
I then thought of how we were, happy enough
My heart changed, peace left me, hate crept in, tough.
I moved on, sadly you couldn’t join me
I sought the future, the endless fears bestowed me
You were in my heart, sadly it changed, my view
You left this world, left my mind anew
You robbed me of my love, joy and happiness
Gave me, a gift you called it, hate sorrow stress
Constantly my mind is racing, yet...

Life on Earth
Life is hell,
We are merely a mark.
A mark on the calendar,
Life is hell.
We have no control,
Anger to manage.
Anger is all we are,
I have no judgment.
We fight,
Fight for control.
Its an uphill battle,
Life is hell.
We never know how long,
How long we have.
Some wait for it,
I look forward to it.

The Lycan Within
I love the night,
The air in my hair.
They kiss of moisture on my skin,
I love sleeping outside.
Then it’s time,
I feel my skin burning.
Burning away my human essence,
I embrace the wolf within.
The wolf of the wild,
The wolf of honor and truth.
Into the night I run,
Running to find the pack.
A lone lycan will not survive,
You need a pack.
ARRROOOOO!
The pack calls me for the kill.
I find the ugly human only barely alive,
I bite into its jugular.
The red rubies flowing down my throat,
As I eat its...

Tearful Rain
When we first started talking,
I was happy.
A month later,
I was hurtin.
Hurting because I wanted to see you,
But i am to far away.
When we were talking,
And I heard the rain.
All I could imagine was,
You and me kissing in it.
Now when i hear the rain,
All I can imagine.
Is all the tears,
I have shed for you.

Heartache
THIS REALLY HAPPENED:
You lied to me,
You played with my heart.
You said you hated him,
He treated you in evil ways.
Now you tell me it was all a lie,
In fact hes your boyfriend.
You stole my heart,
Then you crushed it.
You asked me why i didnt trust you,
I said i did.
Big mistake,
Look what it got me.
I tried to keep you,
From hurting yourself.
It looks like you would,
Rather hurt me.
Do you know how much,
I loved you?
Do you have any fucking idea,
How hard I'm crying?

Freedom
This is a boring place,
Full of rules and expectations.
How I dream to be far from here,
To be with the birds and the clouds.
How I wish to be free,
I work and work.
I end up exhausted,
I want to be free.
This place is a drag,
I need chocolate milk.
I need donuts,
I need to be free.
I argue so that I can sleep,
I sleep to dream.
I dream to be free,
Will you deny my plea?

Elemental Love
Love can be glamorous,
It can be dangerous.
Love can make thee feel strong,
Strong as earth.
It can make thee feel like thee is floating,
Floating on air.
When thee makes love to thou,
There is a fire.
More like a passion,
A crackle of energy.
But all at once,
It disappears.
Flowing down the river of life,
Forgotten.
It can be dangerous.
Love can make thee feel strong,
Strong as earth.
It can make thee feel like thee is floating,

There is a fire.
More like a passion,

But all at once,
It disappears.
Flowing down the river of life,
Forgotten.

The Sisters
Sisters with poison breath,
Bring to the land a long slow death.
But death comes swiftly if you dare,
To find each sisters hidden lair.
Strangers do not pass this way,
All are doomed who disobey.
Turn your faces to the west,
Death awaits in the sisters nest.
Do not enter this domain,
Flee this realm of fear and pain.
Death and terror both await,
Anyone who enters Asphodels’ Gate.
If you pass your fate is sealed,
Ahead pure evil lies concealed.
Turn now while you have life and breath,
Flee now this realm of living death.
Lose and...

The Moon
At last the continuous repetition of the past,
The lunar sun has risen at last.
I am so sure,
Once she has risen we will feel pleasure.
The Moon with her silver light,
Shows through the darkness of night.
She is the light princess,
Of the light and night she will possess.
The Moon has such power,
Whose beauty will never sour.
Her power is foreign and wild,
Layer upon layer her energy and strength is piled.
The Moon is my dear,
Her beauty rids oneself of fear.
Couple claim its pure luck,
They are only moonstruck.
