POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I like chaotic writings with no sense of rythm or rhyme scheme because they throw people off. I feel they go more un-noticed which is preferrable for me. I mostly write poems to learn more about myself.
yup...
Beginning this journey
Hate and distraught
This war like none other
Such battles were fought
Annoyance rose up engaging in siege
Emotion defending but felt no relief
As no match it swiftly fell
Condemning all good meanings to hell

Soul Trekkers
Here in this head my thoughts combine
They twist and turn inside of my mind
Some are good and some... Well, not really
They give me mixed up emotional feelings
My biggest fear becoming so strong
I tear in the eye and I linger on
But knowing my past and mistakes I've made
I accept the debt I have left unpaid
Freedom
Whatever the cost
Running from heaven
For hell has not lost
A dash of pleasure?
No, a whole fucking cup
Everyone around just eating it up
This bull shit happens all the time
He gets away and betrays...

Hey...
Such relief that I felt
Knowing the hand that I dealt
I gave you a royal flush
My emotions turned to mush
From their advice I let you know
The feelings that I couldn't show
With no response my ego blown
Not even into the friend zone
Now it appears I'm in the past
An old friend who didn't last
But something seemed different today
I woke up in a new way
Up on time for once this week
I wasn't grumpy, I felt meek
I ate breakfast, a pleasant change
This day was good but kind of strange
I got to work a tad bit early...

On The Shelf
I was young and you were wise
These ill placed rules do I despise
On the table you placed food
So these limits understood
But as I grow I drift away
And on firm ground you start to sway
The food I now provide myself
And set your rules down on the shelf
You told me what I couldn't wear
But anymore I just don't care
I'm branching out and on my own
I am ready to leave this home
What's that down there on your feet
That's ill mannered be discreet
And those shorts reveal your legs
Cover up she sternly begs
And that...

Fear
That moment of helplessness
Completely entombed in fear
With legs made of lead
And sinking heart in my chest
Your dark figure taunting me
Beckoning me to hide
And with each step you take
My legs buckle beneath me
Completely entombed in fear
With legs made of lead
And sinking heart in my chest
Your dark figure taunting me
Beckoning me to hide
And with each step you take
My legs buckle beneath me

fading smiles
we started out enemies
the best friend of your lover
I had an epiphany
let's befriend each other
starting out with selfish thoughts
I was but a lonely shell
talking to you because your hot
my intentions were not well
but as I grew to know you
you became my friend
these ill mannered feelings flew
my conscience on the bend
and the closer we grew
the more I came to know
if only you knew
the feelings I couldn't show
they grew with our friendship
and through the trials
I was just a blip
through our...

a prison you'll call home
a fiery rage burns anew
the things that you never knew
your the reason for the blade
for this spot in which I laid
I curse and despite your wretched ways
condemning me but everyday
so for you I found a special place
where only you will win the race
where only you can fail
tortured by the falling hail
in a prison of your own
a prison you shall call home
the things that you never knew
your the reason for the blade
for this spot in which I laid
I curse and despite your wretched ways
condemning me but everyday
so for you I found a special place
where only you will win the race
where only you can fail
tortured by the falling hail
in a prison of your own
a prison you shall call home

From Whence They Came
The thunder rolls in the distance
Flattening all before it
Lightning flashes the people
Violating their gaze
And running from the demons
They cannot escape themselves
Blinded by their glory
Molested by their creator
With minds made of clay
All similarly shaped
They're helpless and broken
Deprived of true faith
No will to act upon
No scars just open wounds
Slowly drifting away
To the dirt from whence they came
Flattening all before it
Lightning flashes the people
Violating their gaze
And running from the demons
They cannot escape themselves
Blinded by their glory
Molested by their creator
With minds made of clay
All similarly shaped
They're helpless and broken
Deprived of true faith
No will to act upon
No scars just open wounds
Slowly drifting away
To the dirt from whence they came

To Timid To Voice My Feelings
This deep passion set aside
I left you there with him
The feelings I thought I could hide
Are overflowing at the brim
I was fine without your presence
I became my old self once more
A lonely black concealed essence
Closing every opened door
But that flame is lit again
And I just want to see your face
To once more be called your friend
To be back in my happy place
The cry for sex is but a ploy
For him to keep you there
I would be your special toy
My emotions in your care
But I can't seem to find the balls...

Crimsoned
Deep inside I am asunder
Left alone to make me wonder
Secret thoughts within to plunder
Secret thoughts to fill the hunger
Shattering you left me there
Amongst the thief and a bear
With no hope just in despair
Gasping in a breath of air
The blade beside me so portentous
Your apologies quite garrulous
It comes out sounding frivolous
Making me that much more curious
But I heed your warning and lift the blade
Place it back where it laid
Think of the debts left unpaid
And look at you a monstrous maid
And lifting...

Taken
Times to come and times of past
Times we love and times we miss
Memories that never last
Taken by that one sweet kiss
The first we receive
And the last we see
The pain it relieves
Not meant for me
So cold and still
My body shall lay
Was not my will
Slow to decay
Skin melting from bones
Seeping into the soil
There's no voice; not a single tone
Just my life for you to foil
And creeping up so eerily
With no obstacles to hurl
I feel your presence over me
Goodbye distraught and cruel world
Times we love and times we miss
Memories that never last
Taken by that one sweet kiss
The first we receive
And the last we see
The pain it relieves
Not meant for me
So cold and still
My body shall lay
Was not my will
Slow to decay
Skin melting from bones
Seeping into the soil
There's no voice; not a single tone
Just my life for you to foil
And creeping up so eerily
With no obstacles to hurl
I feel your presence over me
Goodbye distraught and cruel world

Bleached
Stop that nonsensical noise
Don't ask for a reason
Maintain the proper poise
Consume my deadly treason
Through my skin you've breached
Sifted through my mind
Like a parasite you've leached
Leaving my choices blind
Look to the almighty above
Cover before his name
It's because of his love
He's the one to blame
Through non-existing prophets
The "Holy" words were preached
We became his assets
Our minds became bleached
Don't ask for a reason
Maintain the proper poise
Consume my deadly treason
Through my skin you've breached
Sifted through my mind
Like a parasite you've leached
Leaving my choices blind
Look to the almighty above
Cover before his name
It's because of his love
He's the one to blame
Through non-existing prophets
The "Holy" words were preached
We became his assets
Our minds became bleached
