POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Changed
I'm losing myself.
Is this even me anymore?
I despise what I once cherished.
I cringe away from what is good and can feel myself falling into a darker world.
A world I strangely want to be in.
I become more alone as the days pass, and I oddly don't care.
It doesn't matter if I find out what's happening, because I somehow know I can't change it.
This is who I am now.
A lost and blackened soul.

Angelic Demon
Tattoos are masterpieces of pain and suffering on his perfect physique
Layer upon layer of shadows expressed in their three dimensional effect
His artwork slides and rotates with his rising anger
Coming to life on his robust muscular skin
I stand magnified
The bodies he slaughtered for the prize of another soul running through the air around him
Anger and lust roll off his bloody armor in waves
This warrior, a puzzle of life and Death
Turning to stare in his liquid copper eyes
Raising a pierced brow in my direction
My body goes...

Metal, Steel, and Iron
The death metal screams in my ears
I need the volume to be louder, much louder
So I can't hear my conscience speak reason
Shaking hands slowing search between the mattresses
Desperately trying to find my cold hearted friend
Trembling fingers wrap around her and drag her out of her hidden home
Raising her glory to the moonlight by the window
To release her rusted looking stained steel
Eyes close with anticipation to follow
My hand knows the exact position to abuse
Going down the lightening zig zag of my left arm
I place her sharp tip at...

The Beacon Must Be Broken
The beacon of sorrow must be broken,
By words that desperately need to be spoken.
How can we live forever more,
While trapped here with the need to soar?
Will we ever get to see it our way,
And live how we want someday?
Please, let's not blame each other,
For the choices of another.
We have to start living for today,
No matter who gets in our way.
The craziness of this world can't leave with the rising sun,
So let's forget it all,
Infinity plus one!

A Forbidden Pain
I don't understand
Why must this pain be upon me
A pain of a broken heart
That can never ne mended
I could take any physical beating you give me
But this is inhuman
Even a heartless person would think this is cruel
So how could you
The most amazing person I've ever met
Turn my love into the very weapon that killed my soul
That destroyed my reason for life
And crushed my ability to love
I now lie here, motionless
But I can feel myself falling
Into the aybiss of my never ending pain
To never rise again from the pits of my burning hell...

His Eyes
His eyes are like the most amazing forest
With a deep olive green that can stretch on for miles
Seeing the way the sunlight seems to reflect and exaggerate every single little leaf
When I stare into his eyes all I see is the wonders that could be found in that place
How just in that place alone I could've all my wildest wishes granted and my fantasies could truly be alive
But when sadness lives among the trees
It's like a never-ending rain that even through the pain that place seems to be even more beautiful
Although I still wish for the star-bursting sun rays to...

As I Lay In My Bed
As I lay in my bed
I begin to think of you
Oh, how I miss you
Oh, how I want you
Oh, how I need you
Please, my dearest, return to me
Come back to my embrace
Come back to my love lock
Come back to my sheets
I drift from memory to memory
Oh, how I remember your sweet kiss
I remember your smooth skin against my own
As I lay in my bed
I recall a time not so far ago
You came to me in the dead of night
I opened my window, my clothes, and my heart to you
And you took it with no looking back
Oh, how I long for you ...
I begin to think of you
Oh, how I miss you
Oh, how I want you
Oh, how I need you
Please, my dearest, return to me
Come back to my embrace
Come back to my love lock
Come back to my sheets
I drift from memory to memory
Oh, how I remember your sweet kiss
I remember your smooth skin against my own
As I lay in my bed
I recall a time not so far ago
You came to me in the dead of night
I opened my window, my clothes, and my heart to you
And you took it with no looking back
Oh, how I long for you ...
