POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Red Light District
The vapors sweat the walls. Water drips from skin. Delicious
Vicious affliction, our methods dirty with seductive ambitions
Like the ring on your finger, I’ll take your breath away
Laid bare on the bed while the moonlight highlights your frame
Painted naked, we fuel a smoldering flame
Growling hysteria amongst this moment, pure joy upon your face
You licked my neck, I bit your flesh, and then you let out a soft wince
A sex-filled vex etched into our mirrored minds, while her lit cigarette hissed
Her tender fingers touched upon some old...

I cannot be a part of this no more
If I were to put it candidly, you have everything I’ve ever wanted.
You are the better half. The holy counterpart to my hell, introducing hail unto my brimstone.
Everything I wished for myself, and you come along and show me I was right for desiring those things.
Sharp shank to my rib every time I see your face and I minimize my half smile.
It’s beauty locks my cage and I remain captured, unable to look at you, with nervous laughter.
Your intellect engages my mind, makes me ponder, bound and enraptured.
Which is why, I cannot be a part of this no more. ...

My heart is an empty home
A beating pulse sought to free itself, once upon a time
Trapped within the overgrowth, bound in a dense vine
My heart is a jungle that covers the suns shine
The beat remains quaint and concealed inside.
“Loving you would make you love me less”
Wet eyes look deep into the lashing wildfire
“Tell me it isn’t true, or tell me to give it a rest”
Rings and weddings, burning shadows of my desires.
Grey black silhouettes dancing at midnight hours
Derelict castle halls and empty rooms looking dour
Reflections of a lively venue to host our...

Rehab
I feed my heart and the warmth washes my skin
Cleansed I feel when the feelings real
I relinquish all these sins to start again
It judged me with a silent bright eye in morning mist
It fades away into a grey mass, my days are ugly
A miserable heart, you wouldn’t find me good company
There’s a pain in my breast, a brand that stings
I stumble into the bathroom clinging to my chest
I see my greatest flaw, the mirrored enemy within
I’m at the brink, so I julienned malevolence
And I passed it around like medicine
I walk around...

Lady Desire
I give up on needing you
Cared about yourself
More than you cared to help
Yeah, yeah “all in this for myself”.
Anchored in, weighing me down
Yet I’m think I’m feeling something else
I forgot to swim
In a sea of gin.
Instead, I drunk it all!
Cheers! To everyone
A toast to sin
When the grandeur fades, I fall
Through the glaze you look great
All I wanted is one taste.
Bottle up all my devotion
To the brim, while seduction is a bonus.
Long wavy hair
Pretty blue eyes
Oh my...
