POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Devil Walks
you prey on the weak
the lonely and the lost you seek
down the darkest alleyways
the innocent astray in you maze
your still heart cold and brutal
you're everything but truthful
eyes sharp and always alert
singling out every spec of dirt
hunger for broken souls
the hunter is your role
never given always stolen
your presence an ill omen
the lonely and the lost you seek
down the darkest alleyways
the innocent astray in you maze
your still heart cold and brutal
you're everything but truthful
eyes sharp and always alert
singling out every spec of dirt
hunger for broken souls
the hunter is your role
never given always stolen
your presence an ill omen

Tallboy
This is the poem I wrote for the competition Picture Inspiration
The moonlight glows giving the forest a misty hue,
still water glistens while the grass is wet with dew.
A perfect moment to capture natures beauty,
trees moan and creek as if they are moody.
That is when I caught a glimpse of a strange sight,
a tallboy standing alone and barely upright.
Through the scrutiny of my third eye
I saw that it is worn down and asking “Why?”.
Why leave me here in a place unknown
to struggle against the cold sharps stones.
A misfit...

Empty Doll
I saw the shadow of death,
linger near of what was left.
Having a vile grip on your soul
–now you are an empty doll.
Surrounded by everything dead,
flowers-to-trees covered in red.
The overpowering smell of decay
–your colouring now ash grey.
linger near of what was left.
Having a vile grip on your soul
–now you are an empty doll.
Surrounded by everything dead,
flowers-to-trees covered in red.
The overpowering smell of decay
–your colouring now ash grey.

Monster
heart pounds, hearing the heavy thuds
swelling emotions, swallow them down
shutting my mind, like men forcing a door
trying to repress the monster within
painful tears, falling ever so silently
body’s still, while my mind is raving
black threatening memories, flock like crows in my mind
as the darkness creeps closer and closer...

My Law
I just don’t care anymore
no, I can’t afford too
it’s now become my law
because of the shit I’ve been through
Everyone is gone,
the ones i let in
while I’m forced to go on
I’m now wearing thin
I’m not one to hold a grudge
but I hate everyone and everything
and I’m not one to judge
but your just no fucking king

but I hate everyone and everything
and I’m not one to judge

Father
I’m shadowed by sins
my soul left tainted
burning through my skin
my heart left twisted
With the venom in your voice
and the hostility in your eyes
I should of had a choice
couldn’t you hear my cries?
my body’s still and sore
and my mind numb
while I’m left on the floor
I hope you wont hurt mum
my soul left tainted
burning through my skin
my heart left twisted
With the venom in your voice
and the hostility in your eyes
I should of had a choice
couldn’t you hear my cries?
my body’s still and sore
and my mind numb
while I’m left on the floor
I hope you wont hurt mum

Why?
Home is hell with all its demons
she searched for answers but only found reasons
she'd cry and cry 'cause she was hated
and the sadness and anger never faded,
so she turned to God and asked him "Why?",
but from only the devil she got a reply
she screamed and yelled but no one listened
she sat in her room and watched the tears glisten
horrible thoughts dictated her mind
she tried and tried but could never find
she blared music into her ears
it filled her with rage but got rid of the tears
she was lost in fantasise 'cause she couldn't...

Evil Kingdom
Darkness takes over
Forget about the light
Tried not to give in
But all that remains are sins
My world is dying
Mother starts crying
The evil kingdom overthrows
As I take my place on the throne
You can act like you don't care
Act like you don't hear the screams cut through the air
The grim reaper stands next to me
I feel the darkness break free
He reaches out his hand
I have completed the final plan
Now my throne of darkness is here
You better bow down in fear
Forget about the light
Tried not to give in
But all that remains are sins
My world is dying
Mother starts crying
The evil kingdom overthrows
As I take my place on the throne
You can act like you don't care
Act like you don't hear the screams cut through the air
The grim reaper stands next to me
I feel the darkness break free
He reaches out his hand
I have completed the final plan
Now my throne of darkness is here
You better bow down in fear

Emotionless Remains
Put up your mask
lock the doors to your broken past
it needs to be forgotten, memories of all the pain
this will become your emotionless remains

it needs to be forgotten, memories of all the pain
this will become your emotionless remains

My Remains
I hear their taunting calls
chanting my name
summoning me from the shadows
that are deep within
I can feel them stirring
so I shove them back down,
but I can feel the subtle differences
my actions, my words becoming twisted
soon the demons will take over me
no, not me, my remains
I've already perished
chanting my name
summoning me from the shadows
that are deep within
I can feel them stirring
so I shove them back down,
but I can feel the subtle differences
my actions, my words becoming twisted
soon the demons will take over me
no, not me, my remains
I've already perished

Mortal Life
I am a crumbling tower
with every ticking hour
I can feel my walls cracking
that your demons are attacking
a bundle of swirling darkness
has left me heartless
the pain is now flowing through my veins
my heart beats becoming strained
my mortal life
now paying the price
dancing on the line of life and death
chocking on my last breath
with every ticking hour
I can feel my walls cracking
that your demons are attacking
a bundle of swirling darkness
has left me heartless
the pain is now flowing through my veins
my heart beats becoming strained
my mortal life
now paying the price
dancing on the line of life and death
chocking on my last breath

White Walls
My bedroom is my sanctuary
Where I can be carefree
From the horrid world
Past my white walls
But still the noises seeps through
Of all the war, that's nothing new
Hearing the rebel yells of my brothers
And the choking sobs from my mother
I blast my music not wanting to hear
As I feel the drip of a tear
I wipe it away quickly
I can't, even if it's not easy
I'm not going to break
Or let my mask crack
Even with no one to see
I need to stay strong for me
But everything's...
Where I can be carefree
From the horrid world
Past my white walls
But still the noises seeps through
Of all the war, that's nothing new
Hearing the rebel yells of my brothers
And the choking sobs from my mother
I blast my music not wanting to hear
As I feel the drip of a tear
I wipe it away quickly
I can't, even if it's not easy
I'm not going to break
Or let my mask crack
Even with no one to see
I need to stay strong for me
But everything's...
