Virginity
People are always talking about how they took his or hers virginity
This cannot be true because virginity cannot be taken but only given
Virginity is a gift, it is a gift of trust of innocence
When one gives their virginity to another they are trusting that person with a gift
A gift that they have never given and a gift that they will never be able to give again
The giving of ones trust and innocence in such a way is a true sign of love and vulnerability
You are allowing someone to see you in a way that no one else has or ever will
Taking a risk...

If I had a second opportunity
I wonder what it would be like if I had a second opportunity
Maybe this time I could enter with a stronger immunity
An immunity to your overwhelming lust
You used that power to gain all my trust
I dove in head first without looking back
You just stood there and planned your attack
When I realized how I felt I became scared
I started to think that you no longer cared
I think I now have some clarity on what I would do with my opportunity
Maybe I just should have stayed away from your impurity
Was playing along with your immature game
Really...

innocence
A young strong love that wasn't meant to be
For your innocence did not belong to me
Something you have fought so hard to hold
Has left me feeling rather cold
Me and you cannot share the same sight
For mine is dark and yours full of light
You say that you are ready to go
But deep down I know that I am truly your foe
You tell me I am too blind to see
But trust me it is your destiny
I wish you could understand
That a better man deserves your hand
You say you can go without
But that is just your lust...

The Human Condition
As humans we have a basic need for connection
By nature we are a social animal
Therefore any human that fails to connect is by definition not a human
And when a human fails to be the very thing they were put on this planet for
They realize there lack of purpose in the world
This lack of purpose can only be cured by one thing...

The girl who wanted Immortality
She was perfect and lived the perfect life
But she had fears
Her biggest fear was dying
Not so much dying
But rather the absence of life
She wanted to stay on this world forever
When she fell asleep every night the gods painted pictures of immortality in her head
To her immortality would not be a curse but a gift
When she got up that day,with the gods images fresh in her mind, she couldn't help but notice she felt different
She excused it and carried on
She went to learn and explore knowledge
1st period was literature...

What I want
Is it wrong that I want pain?
I don't want a healthy relationship that everyone approves of
I want to feel a love that is so wrong
But where we both fight so hard to make it right
I don't want something that burns constantly like a candle
I want it to explode like a firework
Shine brighter than anything anyone has ever seen
I want it to be passionate
I don't just want to fuck
I want to make love
I don't want our relationship to end with us still being friends
I want it to end at its climax
I want to live a tragic love...

To The Girl I am Looking For
Everyone around me is young, and innocent
They are so excited to go out and get on with their life's
But you, you are different
People will think you're dark
Or depressed
But I will know what you truly are
You are old
Your body is that of a teenagers
But your soul has lived many past life's
I will know that you are sad and depressed
But not because something is wrong with you
but because you have seen things that others cannot understand
I will understand that you are broken
You have been crushed by the...

It's stings a little, but not to bad
That was easy
Uh oh that's a lot blood
I am going to get in the shower so my mom doesn't have to clean up
Now I feel better
The sounds of people yelling at me are finally going away
The questions like
"Why do you always mess up?"
"Why are you so weird?"
They also stop
I am starting to get light headed
Now I think about the few good parts of my life
Those couple moments in my life when I was truly happy

Are You Gone?
People always say, “never forget”
Or “you will be in our hearts forever”
But for me, I actually never will forget.
What you did that night will be burned into the back of my mind forever
After a while the drinking, and smoking do not make you go away
Now I can’t even sleep you away
Your face haunts my dreams
That night you didn’t just take your life, you took mine too
The only difference is that I am still here
I still have to wake up every day, and walk through this cold broken world
Seeing you in the corners of rooms, and in the...

Reality
We live in a fake world
That's obvious
But where do I stand?
I'm not real simply because I realize what is fake
Honestly I don't think anyone is real
I think humanity has lost all hope in ever being real again
Anyone who says they are real are obviously fake
Anyone who tries to define the term reality is obviously fake
In order to be honest one must be ignorant
In other words at the point in our lives when we think we know the most we are the furthest away from reality
We are our most pure when we first enter this world and right before we...

Into the Unknown
Why are we so afraid of what we do not know
Why does it intimidate us to ask questions we may not want to know the answers to
Risk don’t scare us because of the consequences we know of
Risks scare us because of the unknown consequences
We are not afraid to die because we will leave this world
Most people don’t like this world to start out with
People are afraid to die because they don’t know what will happen
Maybe before I start this journey I should ask my-self something
Do I really want to know the answer to my first question
It is quite possible...

True Torture
I do not want to punch you in the face
I do not want to see your legs break and watch as tears roll down your eyes
I want to witness you in hell
Surrounded by a pure darkness
A darkness that sucks the very hope out of your soul
I want to see your face when you realize that you are trapped in this place of nothingness for the rest of eternity
I want to watch as you witness your wife love another man and your kids to call him dad and forget all about you
I want to see you beg to be let out
Then I will
I will take you just close enough to feel the...
