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.
Burning My Bridges
Today is a new day
At least that's what people say
But in my world it is on repeat
Every movement of my feet
Same motion, round and round
This awkward feeling I can't keep down
Puzzling it may seem
All I do is dream
To change for the better
As reluctant as I am I can't seem to surrender
My lies keep flowing out of mouth
Relationships are even going south
I try and try to mend these patches
But in the end they're being cut with hatches
Away and away they break and set a flame
Friends and family turn from my blame
Upon the bridge I...

The Dirt Within
Release my soul
Put me into the peaceful dirt
Bury me in a muddy hole
I don't want to hurt
Let me go into the dark abyss
Come and take this shovel
People say "stop don't you want to exist?"
I laugh as the gravel
Falls all around
Suffocating me till I die
People in this town
Don't understand why...
Hate and anger consumed me
And I want to dissapear
To make sure no one else is to be
Encased in this dirt no can hear
My laughter is piercing
Through the wood that preserves my body
I can barely hear the people...

Revenging my Heart
Send me to hell
Where no one can hear me yell
On how I was tainted by you
I've seemed to slip through
I thirst for vengence
Trying to redeem my innocence
I hunger for your blood
A river of red shall flood
Can you feel it yet?
The piercing knife is still absent
But I dig my fingers within
Blood breaks through the skin
I laugh as you try to escape
Claiming it's rape
But I don't plan on entering
My plan is easy; I'm just killing
This is what you deserve
Love is what I tried to preserve
But this how I...
Where no one can hear me yell

Trying to redeem my innocence

The piercing knife is still absent
But I dig my fingers within
Blood breaks through the skin

Claiming it's rape
But I don't plan on entering
My plan is easy; I'm just killing
This is what you deserve
Love is what I tried to preserve

Where Are You Now?
Forgive those who become insane
For losing their families is a tragic loss
So they will suffer, as they are drunk on pain
They question your authority as if you were our boss
The time has come for you to help them escape
But you remain just a name to us
Claiming to be a hero with a shining cape
A false companion you truly are seem hard to focus
Sorry to say you’re a fake leader
A simple faith doesn’t help anyone
People are screaming for your help if you have any to offer
Listen to them scream and see if we’d have our fun
To the end of the days...

Suffer
Shutter
Breathe faintly
Don’t even whisper
Suffocate briefly
Now allow this pain to dissolve
Swallow your pride
Don’t even bother to solve
This is what you did to me as I died
I’m back now and I am here for a reason
To make you suffer
Drain your life away like you did to me last season
The one I once I loved lay still for her
Bring me back the one I called mine
Not this whore whom lay upon our bed
Look at me now as there is no time
Whither away as you once said,
“I wish you were dead.”
How do you like this torment?
I’m...

My Fate
The air is filled with hate
My eyes give way to an untimely vision
People always seem to meet their fate
As I believe this superstistion
A feeling that wraps the mind within
A sight that puzzles the human brain
Simply stating this mess we find ourselves in
Don't waste your time on me or this pain
I'll find a way through
Running through this fire
I'll find a way to you
That's my only desire
The flames last for a good while
My fate finds me
I cannot help but smile
As the trials of hell won't let me be free
My eyes give way to an untimely vision
People always seem to meet their fate
As I believe this superstistion
A feeling that wraps the mind within
A sight that puzzles the human brain
Simply stating this mess we find ourselves in
Don't waste your time on me or this pain
I'll find a way through
Running through this fire
I'll find a way to you
That's my only desire
The flames last for a good while
My fate finds me
I cannot help but smile
As the trials of hell won't let me be free

City in Flames (Part 1)
The city goes up in flames
All the wasted lives that were once pure
Gone and it's due to these games
Searching trough the rubble for a cure
The sick children cry and cry
Yelling for help and begging to survive
Their mothers gone one by one they would die
Fire spreads and consumes those still alive
People vanish into the after life
Some even plead to stay with their friend
One ma even screams for his wife
But she does not answer due to her untimely end
Blood and screams flood the city
The government doesn't lend a hand
One...

Love Barrier
Face me today and don't go
Stop walking away from our problem
Your emotions you hate show
Let's not forget you did this last autumn
The same dance
Packing your things and arguing
You always say this is my final chance
So I'll once again I'll be sub coming
To your will that is weak
Saying your finally about leave
I nod my head and open the door with a creak
You know I shall not grieve -
This is our final test
If you choose to leave me behind
Then I know it was for the best
Walk away now so I can have peace of mind ...

Girl in Water
A lost life - who's just begging to be free
A punished soul who has only begun
To understand her purpose and be
A true outcast in a place where you're shunned
A tub of water and cords extended
From her bathroom she did rest
Jumper cables upon her chest
This is where her sorrow would be ended -
She has been through all the trials
Bleeding and the suffering
Her friends had told her many lies
That she's charming;
Her eyes shine in the light
All she did was care
For others who did not want to fight
For her...

Sleeping in Love
Fall asleep with me
Let's escape this day
Our dreams will set us free
Let it turn into night and stay
In this sleep
Holding each other so we don't part
A nap that is so deep
Make this night forever in your heart
Sweetly snoring as we fall into a slumber
Whispering in your ear
"A night that makes you wish for another"
Holding tightly my dear
Our love untainted
Our hearts growing onto one another
Making us believe that we are more than acquainted
Our restless night beginning to unfold to something stronger
A love so...

Nightmare which I Rest
Falling, falling into a deep dark slumber
I can not awake from this hell
Please help me wake to remember
I shutter and yell;
Please don't let me sleep anymore
Wake me now
Slipping, slipping into this black door
So I take this final bow
Running, running faster to escape this nightmare
But it's too dark; no where to run I try to close my eyes
Please wake me as this is a scare -
This is it, I begin to tear and then the dream suddenly dies
Wake me please as the dream becomes deadly
No one can make this heaven pure any longer...
I can not awake from this hell
Please help me wake to remember
I shutter and yell;
Please don't let me sleep anymore
Wake me now
Slipping, slipping into this black door
So I take this final bow
Running, running faster to escape this nightmare
But it's too dark; no where to run I try to close my eyes
Please wake me as this is a scare -
This is it, I begin to tear and then the dream suddenly dies
Wake me please as the dream becomes deadly
No one can make this heaven pure any longer...

A Chance
Tell me one more time
How could I ever imagine this is you
Why are you constantly on my mind
You say it's love and this is true
Please remind me on what I should say
When I look at you - I constantly smile
Whisper to me on why this is day to day?
Why are we apart when we live only a mile
A distance only we see as far;
You said there's a chance
To see another; well here we are
Let's try this dance;
Another time I believe is what your requesting
But we don't know one another I...
