POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Limbo
Stuck in limbo
Motionless under such a low bar
I call it no mans land, because
We're not sure who we are
It's when you want to live
Although, death stands in the distance
Asphalt wastelands, your body you'll give
Taking no notice of lights
Or metal that roars
Still,
Small hope exists it's a miss
I wonder if it hurts when death gives you a kiss
Motionless under such a low bar
I call it no mans land, because
We're not sure who we are
It's when you want to live
Although, death stands in the distance
Asphalt wastelands, your body you'll give
Taking no notice of lights
Or metal that roars
Still,
Small hope exists it's a miss
I wonder if it hurts when death gives you a kiss

Virtual Possibility
This Virtual friendship I have
Plainly, it sucks
I can't reach out,
Lacking physical touch
My screen burns bright
Bursting flames throughout my room
What was once my sanctuary
Is now nothing but Ash
Though like the Phoenix in death,
Through Ash we can be reborn
Maybe this time,
Life won't be so torn
Plainly, it sucks
I can't reach out,
Lacking physical touch
My screen burns bright
Bursting flames throughout my room
What was once my sanctuary
Is now nothing but Ash
Though like the Phoenix in death,
Through Ash we can be reborn
Maybe this time,
Life won't be so torn

Cure for Rabies
Bite my skin just to feel something in this mundane reality
Struggling to live with this addictive personality
My mum left, my dad hates me
Don't think I want to go another day
What a cliche
What if?
I'm ecstatic and peaceful
My life is as good as it can get it
Who can smile the biggest, me, I bet
Each day is getting better, already great
What keeps me happy is ignoring this world full of hate
Both paragraphs breathe truth
I can't tell no lies
My body smiles yet my eyes tend to cry
Guess all...

Split
Caring mother, angry father
Psychotic father, selfish mother
Fighting for reasons not known
Kids mentally scarred as they've grown
Two paths to choose from
Both lead to the same goal
Why bother?
Each track has it's own personality
I've walked them both aimlessly
Not at the same time, in my head
A different story
I can't choose a path, it's too much pressure
Situations keep changing, such moody weather
Mother or Father?
Fuck them both.

Hanging Friend
"We'll hang sometime!"
"I'll see you really soon"
Her smile reflects bright, just like a moon
I wish these words true
Not blinded, but awake
Feelings of love make me shake
Always to angry, burn loud like a jet
I can't keep her close, the hurt will affect
Not short term, quite long
What else is to expect
When you're dealing with love
Don't deal with the wrecked
"I'll see you really soon"

What else is to expect
When you're dealing with love
Don't deal with the wrecked

Red= Love, Anger, Pain
Red, a primary color
A primary emotion
Love, anger and pain
Each shade will leave a stain
We'll start with Love
How happy does it feel
Bathing in her sun
It's so sad love can break
Taking away the fun
Now it's Angers turn
He's got you by the neck
Strings attached to your joints
You have no control
Atleast the fun has come back
Maybe not for you
It's pains turn to dance
Across your skin she will prance
Love is fragile, don't break it and you'll win

Flowering Death
Lily is my favorite flower
I'm usually strong, yet with her absence
I have no power
Weak to the bone
My gardens soil, hard like clay
Not even a weed would dare to stay
I'll dig it all up, start fresh, happily
Although I probably won't, I lack the energy
A dry dead garden
Barren, lifeless, absence of sympathy
Sick of everyone thinking, they need to help me
I hate flowers
I'm usually strong, yet with her absence
I have no power

Barren, lifeless, absence of sympathy
Sick of everyone thinking, they need to help me

Satans Angel
What draws us to the wicked?
Do we thrive to be bad
This girl that I've met
I think that she's sad
But there's something about her
Not evil, not good
A twisted image of happiness
When you can't smile but you should
Whether she's the devil or an angel
It doesn't matter to me
A friend is a friend
And all love is free
Do we thrive to be bad
This girl that I've met
I think that she's sad
But there's something about her
Not evil, not good
A twisted image of happiness
When you can't smile but you should
Whether she's the devil or an angel
It doesn't matter to me
A friend is a friend
And all love is free

Dark Days
Dark Days
Dark days are common
We all have them
Yet what some call dark days
Others call heaven
Maybe it can be both
Maybe not
Dark Days
Come with a black rainbow
Salt trickling down your face
And a peculiar grin
With these dark days I miss the light
It's hard to remember that dark days come with starry nights.

Thoughts
The mad long to be madder
The twisted care to keep twisting
My minds an addiction
Crazy thoughts I keep listing
With darkness comes fear
Every noise is an attack
I call out for answers, yet only I respond back
Could I have dreamed?
Heard an echo
or something worse?
My imagination runs wild, envisioning things I can't see
But there's no monsters here, only my thoughts and me

Shooting Spree
His finger on the trigger
The barrel wobbles cautiously
My family are the victims
I'm not thinking logically
Bullets of sound, thankfully not lead
Each word pierces deep
Bleeding yet not red
If I had control, I'd stop this madness
Sadly, I don't
And it's all up to him
I'd hate him if I could
I really should,
If it weren't me, I really would.

Adrenaline Junkie
Busted open like a pinata
Not my heart but my soul
Where love use to live
Exists an empty hole
With no love to replace
I'll find something that fits
These drugs wouldn't stay
Boy, I wish they did
Abandoned internally
Not vulnerable, yet deserted
Looking forward to the future
My body thrives on the torture
"Bring it on" I shout
Physical, emotional or mental
It brings such a rush
What's left of me, I'm hoping to crush
Adrenaline Junkie
I'm no longer empty
Not my heart but my soul
Where love use to live
Exists an empty hole
With no love to replace
I'll find something that fits
These drugs wouldn't stay
Boy, I wish they did
Abandoned internally
Not vulnerable, yet deserted
Looking forward to the future
My body thrives on the torture
"Bring it on" I shout
Physical, emotional or mental
It brings such a rush
What's left of me, I'm hoping to crush
Adrenaline Junkie
I'm no longer empty
