POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Being able to write is something I enjoyed. I would like people to honestly tell me if it's good or not.
Never Happens to Me
Tell me more lies that falsely claim you
I can see right through them
I've been there, I've done that too
Being a player and then some
Fucking anything that moves
But I've been done with playing around
And I see you're still wearing the same shoes
The ones you wear all over town
I wanted to believe you were not the same
But I should of seen it coming
All of the lines you told me were once apart of my game
All of the notes and sweet melodies you were humming
I really thought you were mine
But that's not true
You put in mind
Saying...

My Generation
In this moment of love
I sense nothing from above
Where is this hero we call God?
Most kids get their religion from their iPod
The drinking, the drugs and even sex
Sending these dirty little things called texts
I have seen my generation fall short
Seeing them all that clubs, parties and even some port
Becoming all they can be?
Is it me....
Or can the whole world see
We cannot be simple minded any longer
My generation should be stronger
Refusing the bare mininum
And acheiving the impossible and then some
We are falling fast
And...

Don't Go
Girl don't leave me
As you can see it isn't that easy
I've seen your heart
And mine doesn't want to part
Please don't walk away
It's always hard to stay
I know it to be true
But if you come back I'll be with you
Don't stray away looking so tense
Help me make some sense
Please don't go
You already know -
What I'm going to say
Hearing my apoligies don't want to make you stay
A brief moment of pain and sadness
A wild dash to madness
You yell and say I'm out of luck
And then my eyes fade, giving a I don't give a fuck
You pick...

Evaluation
I've written these poems in a good sense
To ease my pain and make me less tense
I write and I write
Trying to decide what's wrong and right
Playing the part of a good poet
Hoping that you all already know it
Playing myself among the greats
But there will always be debates
So I ask you to read
That's all I really need
For you to enjoy my poem
And make it seem like I'm not alone
This is a guilty pleasure
One that I cannot truly measure
To ease my pain and make me less tense
I write and I write
Trying to decide what's wrong and right
Playing the part of a good poet
Hoping that you all already know it
Playing myself among the greats
But there will always be debates
So I ask you to read
That's all I really need
For you to enjoy my poem
And make it seem like I'm not alone
This is a guilty pleasure
One that I cannot truly measure

Buried Poem
Yesterday was one to remember
Sitting by a fire on a night's cold December
Time is still fleeing our hold
All the times we've shared made us so bold
Getting so close together
Never wanting to let go of another
Yet so far away
At least that's what you would always say
Time is a virtue
Making thankful for you
This is a sweet little poem I wrote
But you'll never read it since you died on that boat
I read this to myself whenever I visit you
Yes my dear love it's true
I come here once a month just to see
Make sure you know that you'll...

Tortured Man
I was never after fortune
It was all because of you
You were my sanity in this situation
You were the reason for the things I do
I cannot tell you how much wrong I've done
Its been uneasy to retrieve my pain
Holding it is no longer an option under the sun
Burning brighter leaving a stain
Upon my eye
Tears fall from staring
I try and try
To calm down and watch you leaving
Forever, it takes an eternity
To move from my position
You gave me everything except uncertainty
Wishes and dire illusion
It was of peace and solitude
Now...

Becoming a Monster
Dying can be easy
Wish upon the stars
For tonight you will see me
Coming from the bars
A drunk is what you say
But tonight is not the same
Because today is the day
You and I will play this deadly game
You will die
You will suffer
Don't even try
Because it will result in failure
Tonight you die...
This night you will suffer
Scream in agony and cry
This is a pain like no other
To be dead is so grand
Let me know when you feel alive
Because I rule this land
And I choose if you can survive
Wish upon the stars
For tonight you will see me
Coming from the bars
A drunk is what you say
But tonight is not the same
Because today is the day
You and I will play this deadly game
You will die
You will suffer
Don't even try
Because it will result in failure
Tonight you die...
This night you will suffer
Scream in agony and cry
This is a pain like no other
To be dead is so grand
Let me know when you feel alive
Because I rule this land
And I choose if you can survive

Where is A Hero
Peaceful nights
They tire of fighting for their rights
Given to the them for a reason
Yes things change like the season
But upon our moments
Who will rise to end these torments
We need a hero
Counting down two, one, zero
Who will fight for us in our darkest hour
Rise from the ashes and gain power
Where is the hero we need
If the hero shows we will succeed
Time ticks away
Three, two, one; no time to stay
Where are you now
People are asking how?
When are you comin and why?
Are you not...
They tire of fighting for their rights
Given to the them for a reason
Yes things change like the season

Rise from the ashes and gain power

Time ticks away
Three, two, one; no time to stay
Where are you now
People are asking how?

Love Undone (Unfinished)
What you did was unnecessary
No less on our year annivesary
People whisper the thigns you'v done
Listen well hun
Forgive me on what I've said
And all the things I've did
But I never crossed over the line
Not like you've done over time
I've witnessed our paths pull apart
You know it in your heart
That we are no more
And this is becuse you're a whore
A troubled past led you to do so
It's still no excuse, but you already know
I've been the one to take the blame
But not anymore, fuck this silly game
Love whithers away
So I'll...

A Nazi Drinks
One at a time single file
Don't worry about this fire
You'll only stay for awhile
I'm here for my own personal desire
Step right behind him and her
Line up and approach the flames
Go along and follow another
Suggest this another one of the games
Simply see if you survive
A scream you hear?
No my child they're alive
See my dear...
They only go to a better place
Step foot inside
You scream as you see a melted face
Doors close and you see where the others died
A sad sight indeed
But I cannot help you...

Post-War America (land of sand)
Walking in an ocean with no water
The currents actually drag the sandy tides
A wandering salesman stops to try and barter
I ignore his pitch and see where he resides
Underneath a darkened bridge -
Bits are cracked and broken
The sun beats upon this unforgiving image
Causing me to remain unspoken
Holding onto to my family
But they disappeared
Along with everyone who didn't receive my apology
Remembering when they once cheered;
Walking along the same sandy plains
I stumble upon a small town
Women and children look sick with bloody...
