POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
once a man of hatred now a seeker of peace. may mercy reach those who deserve it
the fear
i kept myself awake again…
i never wanted to close my eyes
i was afraid of my own dreams
because all i have is nightmares
i wake up screaming in tears
and add another scratch to my face
my nightmares hit me where it hurts
watching someone i love die
and not letting me do anything
all i could do is watch, yelling
“ill kill you you hear me”
all he does is laugh as he slits her throat
and every time i see his face
i become so speechless all i do is breakdown
his face was mine, my anger
his voice echoing in my ears
“this is what you...

the curse of my words
all I've ever tried to do was be a voice for myself
but my words keep hurting those around me
i keep silent to avoid hurting people
but it's all i ever seem to do…
even though i try to be kind to everyone
i hurt the ones i love…
in the end i sew my mouth
my words can never hurt anyone
yet it brings me to tears
i can't even by myself
all i can be is hollow
all i can do is watch
i can't say another word
each word I've said
means another curse
i want my words to be my strength
but all they do is kill everyone i care about...
but my words keep hurting those around me
i keep silent to avoid hurting people
but it's all i ever seem to do…
even though i try to be kind to everyone

in the end i sew my mouth
my words can never hurt anyone
yet it brings me to tears
i can't even by myself
all i can be is hollow
all i can do is watch
i can't say another word
each word I've said
means another curse
i want my words to be my strength
but all they do is kill everyone i care about...

The shadows
Every night i lie awake
my eyes never stop moving
the shadows dance around me
and my heart races
i reach out to nothing
but they embrace my hand
my laughs ones of insanity
but their laughs only echo mine
and my smile welcomes them
that cruel yet calming feeling
and for my smile i see their many
no matter how dark it gets
i see them as clear as day
they move as if to embrace me
no matter how many cuts they leave
i keep going back to the dark
their wounds are my drug
and the shadows are my addiction
my eyes never stop moving
the shadows dance around me
and my heart races
i reach out to nothing
but they embrace my hand
my laughs ones of insanity
but their laughs only echo mine
and my smile welcomes them
that cruel yet calming feeling
and for my smile i see their many
no matter how dark it gets
i see them as clear as day
they move as if to embrace me
no matter how many cuts they leave
i keep going back to the dark
their wounds are my drug
and the shadows are my addiction

my final words
in my life there was a story
in my life there was blood shed
in my life i am not myself
so who am i
if not one person, but many
someone always hated
someone to disappear
and be forgotten
someone to kill others
or be killed
a history never remembered
but one forgotten
my blade not to shed blood
but to erase a mistake
a smile to fade away
but for it to fade away
one would have to be here
tears not out of sadness
but to hope
hope that i find my real home
in my life there was blood shed
in my life i am not myself
so who am i
if not one person, but many
someone always hated
someone to disappear
and be forgotten
someone to kill others
or be killed
a history never remembered
but one forgotten
my blade not to shed blood
but to erase a mistake
a smile to fade away
but for it to fade away
one would have to be here
tears not out of sadness
but to hope
hope that i find my real home

feast on them
that hunger i have
my teeth aching to bite
the smell of their flesh
the meat underneath
my mouth watering
my hands shaking
my heart racing
I can't help myself
i let it all out
corner the first one
such a pretty girl
what meat to have
her skin was so smooth
she wouldn't scream
i lose my senses
bit at her neck
using full force
as i begin
she makes noises
i can barely hear
the taste is so good
after each bite
i kiss her
“thank you for being delicious”
i say to her corpse
my teeth aching to bite
the smell of their flesh
the meat underneath
my mouth watering
my hands shaking
my heart racing
I can't help myself
i let it all out
corner the first one
such a pretty girl
what meat to have
her skin was so smooth
she wouldn't scream
i lose my senses
bit at her neck
using full force
as i begin
she makes noises
i can barely hear
the taste is so good
after each bite
i kiss her
“thank you for being delicious”
i say to her corpse

The corpses revenge
The rotten corpse,not one put to rest
but one waiting for resurrection
waiting to take vengeance
to smell the blood of its killer
of drag its blade across his throat
to finally soth its soul
and rest in peace
it waits day after day
each one fueling its hatred
each minute of silence
slowly drifting to insanity
but it chose to wait
it wants his head
and it will not stop
each moment cherished
but all it can do for now
is wait…

but it chose to wait

and it will not stop

nervous wreck
i'm supposed to be fearless
yet i'm always afraid
i cant speak up to anyone
because i am never responded
i feel as if i'm alone
because i am treated like it
all i get in life is betrayal
then a firm memory of why i'm alone
i get enraged to the point of no return
and i'm called a monster for being me
i can never say a word to anyone
because i feel my words slashing my throat
and the message sinks into my skin
how can i exist in a world that demands perfection
when all i can be is corruption
yet i'm always afraid
i cant speak up to anyone
because i am never responded
i feel as if i'm alone
because i am treated like it
all i get in life is betrayal
then a firm memory of why i'm alone
i get enraged to the point of no return
and i'm called a monster for being me
i can never say a word to anyone
because i feel my words slashing my throat
and the message sinks into my skin
how can i exist in a world that demands perfection

bleed out
the blade of betrayal
a blade that has no handle
it cuts both ways
the blade has no shape
no wielder
no legacy
only a hunt for blood
whose throat will it slit next
whose lies will fuel its power
whose to say how many victims its taken
the strength of the lies chose who will die
but nobody ever lives in the end
they all bleed out eventually...

The stories in the rain
Ever day I look out and see the rain
As if thousands of tears are shed
And when it falls the noise gets louder
Most people call it annoying or boring
But all I can hear is the voices of each drop
Every one I can see their images fold into one
I listen to one story after another and I feel welcome
I don't question where the stories come from
Or even when they were made, I just listen
Every story is left in the drops, can you hear them
can you hear the tales they tell and the lives of the past
can you feel the emotions they went through ...

broken words
I watched her tear herself apart
I watched her slowly drown away
I watched her own words be her destruction
I watched as shed tell me she loved me
I watched as she would smile through pain
I watched as shed tell me to leave her alone
I watched and when I did she was happy
I watched and when i did shed be close to me
I watched and I was hoping shed wait
I watched as she broke down in tears
I watched as she faded into darkness
But even after all that has been said
I watched her smile as id say
"i love you"
I watched her slowly drown away
I watched her own words be her destruction
I watched as shed tell me she loved me
I watched as she would smile through pain
I watched as shed tell me to leave her alone
I watched and when I did she was happy
I watched and when i did shed be close to me
I watched and I was hoping shed wait
I watched as she broke down in tears
I watched as she faded into darkness
But even after all that has been said
I watched her smile as id say
"i love you"

family of insanity
a family that seems created to be cruelty and madness
a family traumatized by the experiences they all had
yet a family that can never be broken apart
the father a ruthless mad man
the mother that feasts on her victims
the daughter acting as a succubus
the son the brutal killer at heart
they all act as one
searching and hunting
the daughter lures one in
the son commences the torture
the father chooses which meat he cooks
all while the mother is ready for her meal
a family of twisted killers that's never stopped
but a family that has an...

forgotten tears
there was always the memories i kept locked away
the emotions i hid from the world out of fear
i am one man with multiple faces, yet i show none of them
i exist among others yet its as if i’m just a ghost
however even a ghost has more presence than me
i look inside myself only seeing darkness
at the end of the darkness is the door i sealed
i hear all the voices of my other faces
my anger try to break free and take control
my sadness try to flood my mind with clouds
my sorrow wishes me to be in my own misery
all of my voices echo and never stop...
