No matter where I go, no matter whom I am with
You are all I think about, the only thing that still makes sense
I’m falling further and faster now, Sinking oh so quick
Onward bound upon this one way trip, far too late now to abandon ship
My mind grows ever blurry, my heart continues to race, these eyes no longer see
Beyond exhaustion, I just do not give a shit
I've tried my very best, gave it my all
Never made a difference, never meant a thing or mattered at all
Drained of life,...

Requiem Eternam
10-25-12
Requiem Eternam
We danced with the devil
And watched time move so slow
In a world far away, a world of our own
Surrounded in the shadows, but so alone
Beating hearts and glazed eyes
Two souls beneath the endless night
Fading into madness, falling to their demise
Held me tight, and placed your hand in mine
Together we drowned in the darkness -----
Two lost souls Evermore entwined.

Held me tight, and placed your hand in mine
Together we drowned in the darkness -----

Humble Death
Trying a new approach to the way that I write...here goes...
I grasp tight life’s fragile thread,
With grin painted upon this pale face in content,
Aware that in a mere moment it will all come to an end.
I hold hope no more. I fear not death.
I embrace the darkness within.
Slowly release my grip my fingertips dance,
While I sink and slip.
Fading from the horizon of life,
All I have ever wanted was just this…

Black & Blue
Black & Blue
Stop making excuses, your lies are so useless
Your facade is so played out, it's really obnoxious
Your words mean nothing, your efforts are pointless
It's too late now, there's nothing at all that you can do
I'm leaving this time for good.
You've had so many chances, that you chose not to use.
Don't act so surprised, too many times I have forgiven you.
I'll admit that it hurts to say goodbye, I never dreamed or wished to leave your side
You made the choice to push me aside
All the shit you've put me through, ...

Rightful Place

Rightful Place
No need to raise your voice my dear,
No need to scream and shout
We’ve been down this road so many times before,
It’s been a hell bound ride without any doubt
You tell me to leave, then beg me to stay
Oh baby you’re wearing me out
I’m so tired of fighting, and
I’m through with letting you bring me down
It’s too little, too late; I’m over your games
Too much precious time on you went to waste
Far too long I let you get the best of me,
But babe that’s all about to change
This time I’ll...

Into Thin Air
9-18-12
Into Thin Air
Dissolving into a sea of tears,
Stricken down by my worst nightmares and fears,
That have transcended into my reality
Reckless morbid thoughts come to me casually
Sweet dreams of death infatuate me
Living has become my great demise
Lying to myself, persistently asking why am I even alive
Nothing here can ease the aches, or bring me happiness
I’ve tried to ease my pain; I’ve tried to erase it from my mind,
Pretend it’s not there. Trying to forget, pretending I don’t fucking care
But...

Infliction
*Work in Progress**
A tale of an unfortunate and terrible life,
lonely and cold evermore, with no one by my side.
Seeking out distractions just to ease my exhausted mind.
Giving into my weaknesses, just to pass meaningless time
Though the pain never heals, and i just wish to die.
Every moment seems to stand still,
I find myself counting each moment as it painfully passes by.
Nothing left to push me forward, no will to try.
broken wings aren't meant to fly.
Broken pieces of mistakes are all that remain.
Useless...

Oh Well
* WORK in PROGRESS**
No hope. No purpose. A hopeless miserable fuck
Irrelevant. I never really was much
A giant mistake. It's time to just give up
Nothing to strive for, shit out of luck
So to no surprise I'll cease to exist,
No one will cry, I will not be missed...

Rise & Fall
9-12-12
Rise & Fall
Aimlessly running and hiding.
Avoiding truths blindly,
Moving forward while falling behind
Time a fragile privilege, I could never make mine
Anguish and despair prevail. Devoted evermore abiding
Concealing scars and wounds, just to bleed again
Shrouded in pain and misery, that never seems to end
A mutilated soul, solemnly useless and inconvenient
These hopeless breathes and heartbeats feel so pretend
Completely torn and hollow, rotting away from deep within
Tangled in torments, vacant awaiting an...

In Other Words
Don’t skip the details, or spare me the truth,
Cut to the chase , even if it hurts.
Don’t make me wait, or lead me astray.
Time is not something I’ve got to waste.
Don’t be gentle, harder hits I can take.
Honesty is best, lies just bring heartache.
Lay it on me, just confess.
Tell me your reality, and spare me the fallacies.
Straight forward and honesty are just a part of my personality.
So come on and let me know.
No more facades, the truth must now be...

Letting Go
9-8-12
Letting Go
Let me prepare for another let down.
Let me kick start my heart, for yet another break down.
It’s too late now, the brakes don’t exist.
Can’t turn around, on this destructive path I must persist.
A breaking heart makes such a distinct sound.
It’s oh so hard to breathe when you’re buried deep beneath the ground.
Ignite the flame, hot to the touch.
Quickly burn and crash from the rush.
Love is for fools, then what about lust.
Heart of tin, plagued by rust.
My heart I should never trust.
Let...

Eradicate
*Work in Progress, rough draft**
9-3-12
Eradicate
Fallen down persistently,
Trying to escape this tragic reality.
Drowning in the shadows of darkness,
Consumed by illusions and fallacies.
My fate, a predetermined tale of tragedy.
Another night I’m all alone,
Silently suffering, waiting for no one.
Warm tears fall and caress my face,
Longing for an ending; a final resting place.
No longer can I go on living this way,
Haunted by the temptation of death, the torments never fade.
Inflicted wounds...
