POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I've been writing poetry every since I could write. It's a passion, a love, and a joy. For me it's easier to express things with poetry than with spoken words.

Hello Death
Hello death, we finally meet.
Please pardon me,
But would you like to take a seat?
I don’t want you to let me go free,
Nay I just want to ask you a simple favor…
Please before I go;
Five minutes with my family, let me savor.
Before you take my soul.
My family means the world to me.
They’ve been there through thick and thin.
For they were the ones that helped me through, you see!
My wonderful kin!
Hello death, so you rang,
Please let me visit my mom and dad.
I know Heaven has sang,
But to see them one last time I’d be glad.
I...

Gothic Amour
My crimson life of deep satin,
Rests its head on my tears of black.
Speaking Gothic truths untold.
Whispering secrets humans should never know.
A nightingale sings as stories unfold.
Black tidal waves of essences glow,
Forbidden acts of deceits uncertainty.
Glancing around for 'morrows marquis.
Floating overhead stagnant leftovers of love past,
Entrancing red with goth lovers cast.
Nothing held in midnights shade,
Nobel blood never conveyed.
Crimson dance betrothed in honesty's veil.
Death of the heart as inner beauty's grail.
Tears of...

The Black Rose
The black rose--
How beautiful yet how miserable!
The long green stem with thorns holds it sturdy.
I watch the bud unfold slightly,
Like a hand that was closed and now is opening.
With no hesitation I touch the stem,
And a long ragged thorn pricks my finger.
I watch the blood trickle down then--
My eye catches the dew--
It glitters in the dawning sun.
There’s no trace of hue.
It is a splendid sight.
Black as the night.
Black--The color of death.
Oh! What a wonderful sound it makes!
Like bells of Heaven sweetly playing,
And as I...

Sipping Life...
Sip....
Just sit there,
and sip the
the coffee of
your life.
Beg....
Just kneel on
your aching
knees
and beg...
Forgiveness in
redemption.
Cry....
Lie alone
all by yourself.
Cry your pain
away while
your hands
stay stained.
Speak....
Talk to yourself-
Did anyone hear?
Tell yourself
secrets untold.
Hope....
Think about
the good and
the bad.
Toss those
thoughts around.
Pray....
Tell God
your sad story.
Whispering to
the ceiling
and sky.
He's not in...
Just sit there,
and sip the
the coffee of
your life.
Beg....
Just kneel on
your aching

and beg...
Forgiveness in

Bleeding White
Emotionless waking dreams.
Endless cascading screams.
Hurried glances in anger and pain.
Hushed sighs calling the insane.
Decaying corporeal fires awake.
Destroyed in a burning lake.
Echoing rumors piercing like a knife.
Embers fading in rotten life.
Bleeding white and gasoline.
Boxed up, never to be seen.
Hearts bled in crimson red.
Happy thoughts are all dead.
Drown out the memory.
Drink yourself; released and free.
Float and spin in whispered breath.
Fight your way in death.
Notions unseemly disperse;
Nuisance and hurt is...
Endless cascading screams.
Hurried glances in anger and pain.
Hushed sighs calling the insane.
Decaying corporeal fires awake.
Destroyed in a burning lake.
Echoing rumors piercing like a knife.
Embers fading in rotten life.
Bleeding white and gasoline.
Boxed up, never to be seen.
Hearts bled in crimson red.
Happy thoughts are all dead.
Drown out the memory.
Drink yourself; released and free.
Float and spin in whispered breath.
Fight your way in death.

The Devil's Eyes
Fantasy cloaks me in the darkness of my dreams,
As I lay twisted in poisons of waking screams.
My heart spins like a bullet to the brain,
And I stop laughing in shattered glass and pain.
The forbidden coils wrap around my sin;
Like maggots crawling under my skin.
The voice of distant whisperers echo without fail,
And breathing acid covered air I inhale.
Little demons gnaw at my heart and soul;
I now am no longer in control.
I feel the black waves of anger wash over me.
Sighing I melt down in the tormented sea.
A blood-stained rose is all there...
As I lay twisted in poisons of waking screams.
My heart spins like a bullet to the brain,
And I stop laughing in shattered glass and pain.
The forbidden coils wrap around my sin;
Like maggots crawling under my skin.
The voice of distant whisperers echo without fail,
And breathing acid covered air I inhale.
Little demons gnaw at my heart and soul;
I now am no longer in control.
I feel the black waves of anger wash over me.
Sighing I melt down in the tormented sea.
A blood-stained rose is all there...

Journey of Faith
Conquered by my dreams;
I set sail on an endless journey.
Awoken by my screams;
I danced around an eternity of mourning.
Seeing death face to face;
I stopped to smell the roses.
Consumed by grace;
I knelt to pray in a pasture.
Trailed by tears;
I took the path of glory.
Forgetting my fears;
I told of my testimony.
Following through my own mess;
I found peace in getting through.
Always being blessed;
I continue my journey of faith.

Not The One To Blame
My heart told you once
About what could have been…
What should have been.
My heart wraps its arms around you-
Mourns for you-But you’re gone.
Chorus:
Don’t say the words that ring untrue.
Don’t say the things that come to you.
Don’t holler out my name.
Don’t leave me with all the blame.
My heart held you close
Remember those times
Or did you block them out?
My heart cries out no!
But I keep walking this road.
Show me what you want to say
Fall down on your knees and beg.
Feel me run through you
The bitter...
About what could have been…
What should have been.
My heart wraps its arms around you-
Mourns for you-But you’re gone.
Chorus:
Don’t say the words that ring untrue.
Don’t say the things that come to you.
Don’t holler out my name.
Don’t leave me with all the blame.

Or did you block them out?

Ravens Of Humanity
The raven of dusk and dawn sits on the window sill of transgressions;
While looking at the vast field of hell and glory.
Cawing at the flashes of hope and sin;
Dancing on the breath of hatred and pride.
He sits there eyeing the humans walking around confused,
And he wonders why they're so consumed.
The raven of good and evil sits on the door frame of mercy;
As little drops of faith splashes the inner heart of humanity.
He waits for us to choose our paths,
And he laughs at our indecisive ways.
The raven of Heaven and Hell sits on the swing of love;...
While looking at the vast field of hell and glory.
Cawing at the flashes of hope and sin;
Dancing on the breath of hatred and pride.
He sits there eyeing the humans walking around confused,
And he wonders why they're so consumed.
The raven of good and evil sits on the door frame of mercy;
As little drops of faith splashes the inner heart of humanity.
He waits for us to choose our paths,
And he laughs at our indecisive ways.
The raven of Heaven and Hell sits on the swing of love;...

Black Waves (Wash Over Me)
CHORUS:
Black waves just like the days of a childhood dream.
Wash over me (Wash over me)
The good life of two lovers in a magazine.
Speak to me (Speak to me)
Star studded birds of a love affair.
Pour on me (Pour on me)
It's the inside workings of a midnight train.
Words of wisdom told in vein.
It's the fear of a child's nightmare.
The feeling that someone cares.
It's the sound of the pouring rain.
Drowning thoughts of dropping the pain.
CHORUS:
Black waves just like the days of a childhood dream.
Wash over me (wash over me)...
Black waves just like the days of a childhood dream.
Wash over me (Wash over me)
The good life of two lovers in a magazine.

Star studded birds of a love affair.
Pour on me (Pour on me)

Sinful Passion
Aching I kiss the lips of lust.
Dreaming of something more to come.
The crisp cold of his hands sting my skin,
And I shiver with welcomed anticipation.
A dark sinful passion overtakes me;
As I lay upon the ground.
He nibbles at my neck,
And I moan with desire.
Plunging into me I scream.
Slowly relaxing I fall into sleep.
The last sip is taken by the vampire tonight.

In The End
Dancing babes digging deep.
Falling short of the heap.
Lick away the bitter fruits.
Look below and pull the roots.
Putrid smells of frost burnt roses linger still.
Tiny bites don't seem to heal.
Ugly soaked memories curse me.
Summers die as the past fades into the sea.
Waste deep in molten chocolate gasoline.
Fires spread into the unseen.
Bits of the atmosphere crumbles away.
Winters dream melts into day.
Depressed thoughts keep you locked tight.
Break the chains and put up a fight.
The mold will break in the end.
Stop the hate and...
