A Blinding Dark
twisted rage within my dreams
the only one that hears my screams
I can't wake up the pills induced
the nightmare that I'm fighting through
trapped within this slumbered shell
can't break from this nightmare hell
a thrashing blast of breaking limbs
can't match the pain I feel within
my blinded eyes fear the dark
can't match the aching in my heart
the racing thoughts in my head
scattered images of being dead
I scrape the dark out of my eyes
to show myself that I'm not blind
but what I see in front of me
a blackened fog and...

trapped within this slumbered shell
can't break from this nightmare hell
a thrashing blast of breaking limbs

my blinded eyes fear the dark

Growing pains
a jagged pill that I dare not swallow
deep within me a place that's hollow
a stir of echoes from deep inside
resonating through scars of time
the accumulation of growing pain
insistent upon bringing rain
the tears inside often unseen
the pain I feel deep within me
a sorrow that I cannot pass
the pain that will always last
for those I've lost, the ones I love
that I can see, and still think of
to see their face and watch them stand
I'd surrender my life, forever damned
for in this life I am a slave
ruled by my growing pain

Reality
kicked in the teeth by reality as i woke from a dream
spent the rest of the night trying to find my way back to sleep
lying as still as the dead, alone in the dark
while thoughts of loss pulled at my heart
nothing could i do but to stew in my head
clinched my fists as my anxiety fed
seconds to minutes bled by the hour
overcome by grief and consumed by it's power
grinding my teeth and locking my jaw
trying to erase the thoughts of the things I have thought
nothing to do but to lie here awake
and fight back the burning of fire and flames
spent the rest of the night trying to find my way back to sleep
lying as still as the dead, alone in the dark
while thoughts of loss pulled at my heart
nothing could i do but to stew in my head
clinched my fists as my anxiety fed
seconds to minutes bled by the hour
overcome by grief and consumed by it's power
grinding my teeth and locking my jaw
trying to erase the thoughts of the things I have thought
nothing to do but to lie here awake
and fight back the burning of fire and flames

The longest of Nights
the longest of nights
consumed by the night in the dark of my dreams
awaken by the shadows that dance in my sleep
inside of my eyes a tortured display
devouring my mind the demons at play
a paralyzing tale i near dare not tell
the nightmare they weave in this visual hell
still they go on with this hellish display
consuming my mind the demons at play
the organic dark seems to move and to breathe
alive with a mind it is able to think
it feeds on my fears and devours my dreams
as i lay wide awake unable to sleep
i hear in my ear as...

I hate..
I hate the way that i think
I hate the thoughts inside of me
I hate the way that i cry
I hate the ways that I've died
I hate that I can never have
more than one good day in row
I hate that yesterday was okay but
today I don't feel the same
I hate my face and I hate my eyes
I hate the way that I always cry
I hate my mouth and the frowning lines
I hate it all... all of the time
I hate that the sun came up today and
that I don't really seem to care
I hate that its nice outside but
I am breathing stale air...

I have written of pain
I have written of pain
and yet I still feel pain
I have written of sorrow
and yet I still feel sorrow
I have written of anguish
and I am still full of anguish
I have written of grief
and yet I still grieve
I have written of my anxiety
and today I feel very anxious
I have written of the darkness
and I still cannot escape it
I have written about death
and I can feel its cold stare
I have not written much of happiness
and yet I still feel happy
I have not written much of smiles
and yet...
and yet I still feel pain
I have written of sorrow

I have written of anguish

I have written of grief

I have written of my anxiety

I have written about death

What I write..
what I write is what I see
visions dance in front of me
tears that flow and pain that kills
memories that haunt me still
death and life and shadow forms
creepy lights behind closed doors
nightmares flash across my eyes
my words convey my dreadful fright
sorrow pain and misery
come to life as readers read
painting pictures with keyboard strokes
through my pen images flow
love and laughs and even hope
sometimes appear not often though
the dark and pain steal the lines
and supress my light so it cant shine...

For A Long time
I've been telling myself for a long time that it is going to be ok
and for a long time it has not been ok
I've been told for a long time that im going to be ok
and for a long time i have NOT been ok
I've been telling myself for a long time that i am going to get better
and for a long time i have not gotten better
I have been told for along time that i am going to get better
and I don't feel like i have gotten any better
I've been telling myself for a long time that i am going to wake up
and for a long I have remained asleep
I have...
and for a long time it has not been ok

With Black Clothes Adorned
With black clothes adorned
the mourners come to mourn
upon a pedestal, a casket sits
through the air, silence drifts
dripped with roses as red as blood
with razor thorns not meant to cut
Down a face, make-up smears
and abstract painting, made by tears
Men hold back as women weep
wiping tears from their cheeks
with a swipe of their sleeve
the men control the tears the creep
Upon the silk an idol lays
from this world she has escaped
in a coffin of lacquered black
she rests here.. in peace
A tranquil look on...

Caught A Glimpse of the Past Today
Caught a glimpse of the past today
in my minds eye as I turned around
the sun flashed in my face
and caused me to go blind
I saw the world as it had been
flashing through my head
torturous visions laced my thoughts
and bled into my brain
on a beautiful day, the gray crept in
once again I lost sight of the light
the sun blurred to shadows
And I was forced to grit my teeth
The world was smiling off in the distance
laughs muted by the sound of my thoughts
the day consumed itself and turned inside out
and all of the colors...
