shadows of the past
no matter how much my future screams in my head
all i can hear is the voices of a dark and mysterious past
seeing a smile on my face that can never be erased from my memories
that blood stained face of my demon and his laugh echoing in my mind
a laugh that i never want to do again to keep me sane and sound
the knife he wields cuts through to my heart as my own suicide
only one person but my past became half of me, half of a monster
looking at myself seeing who i was and who i am today as if i'm a memory
reaching out gripping my own heart yet no matter how much...

jealousy
there is a feeling of greed to others
a feeling that you must have what others have
but when it comes to it, its all jealousy
ive seen jealousy destroy the good in people
and replace it with a murderous intent
ive seen it break the hearts of others
and bring misery for milenia
ive seen honest people forget who they are over jealousy
and become the monsters they swore to seal away
but jealousy is only the beginning of a life of chaos
if jealousy never existed, who would be greatful?

the curse of eyes
there is a deep saying in the world
if it was "eye for an eye" we'd all be blind
well if the whole world was blind
i feel that it would be a blessing
if we were blind, maybe we could be happy
maybe then wed understand true beauty
maybe people wouldn't look in the mirror
seeing the figure they hate
maybe girls wouldn't be so focused on appearance
and realize that not all guys look like stars
maybe guys wouldn't see a girls looks
and see the person behind them
maybe i could look outside for once
and not be in searing...

the shy one
every day i see her in the morning
she has no idea i ever existed
shes not afraid to be herself
yet i cant confess out of fear
I've only said few words to her
yet i have so much i want to spill
every time i see her i freeze
i lose the words i want to say
i begin to stutter, panicking
i see the sparkle in her eyes
i feel a warmth in my heart
yet my throat is icy
with words frozen in time
then my emotion turns
into self hatred and disappointment
and a thought that swirls in my mind
what am i afraid of?
she has no idea i ever existed
shes not afraid to be herself
yet i cant confess out of fear
I've only said few words to her
yet i have so much i want to spill
every time i see her i freeze
i lose the words i want to say
i begin to stutter, panicking
i see the sparkle in her eyes
i feel a warmth in my heart
yet my throat is icy
with words frozen in time
then my emotion turns
into self hatred and disappointment
and a thought that swirls in my mind
what am i afraid of?

trust
i realize what i give away too much
my trust has been broken too many times
I could have been stabbed i wouldn't care
i could be robbed and i would walk away
but to break my trust means you hit my heart
it has been broken by those i cared for
i get dragged around and toyed with
then thrown away as if i never mattered
what did i ever do to deserve this...
why wont anybody care about me
i can never understand it because it hurts
i come with open arms and get betrayed
i get a knife in my back if i look away
i care about others so thy're not...

empty space
throughout my life few moments do i cherish
yet all i cherish has been someone talking to me
every other moment is like people can see through me
i walk a path of the unknown and slowly see how i'm seen
everywhere i go i feel as if i am unwelcome and a burden
i walk around in everyone's shadows as if i was a ghost
if i am to die there would be no funeral and no honor
all i can do is hope that there would be nobody to miss me
if i am alone and scared there would be nobody to comfort me
because all i am is just an insignificance to anybody around me

survival
it's been days since everything went dark
and silence was replaced by screams and cries
turning civilized people into animals of rage
since then our world has slowly torn itself apart
i saw the cruel animals take my family and kill them
my wife raped and decapitated, my son burned alive
all this while they forced me to watch and laugh at me
as the days went by i managed to escape by killing them
with only my blade i slaughtered them and spared nobody
after it all i walked until i could find survivors
this is a game of survival i did not want to play...

torn apart
as i rest in my bed i feel the shadows swarm me
i feel the evil trying to enter my heart
i hear the scratches of the claws on my wall
i open my eyes to see an unending darkness
all i can do is look the beast in the eyes
all my words are stopped in my throat
i feel it grab my arms and grip them
my blood ceases to enter my arm
the pain goes through me and i yell
i feel his grip tear through my flesh
it reaches my bone and i beg for mercy
it cuts through my bone and i watch it fall
i panic and try to move as it takes the form of me
i look...

her ghost
i see her in the eyes of every person
i hear her words as i sleep
i feel her when i am alone... yet shes not there
i lay in my bed and close my eyes, listening to her
when i open my eyes, i see the emptiness of my ceiling
i reach for someone who is not there
and i feel the chill of my lost heart
my tears go unseen because they were all shed for her
i can hear her last words repeat in my mind and they haunt me
why cant i let her rest in peace, why must my heart ache
she was all i had left, so why cant i let her be free
yet i see...

pawn
i stand in the front lines defending those i care for
yet all i d is get destroyed to be forgotten in the end
i am just one person who.... who is expendable
there is no care if i am killed while doing what i do best
there is no voice to me and the one thing i cant say is "no"
its like i'm a puppet at the end of someones strings
i see those like me dead and only i care enough to say something
i don't want to be used but i don't know how to get out of it
i am just a soldier that is on the battlefield that i will die in
while the higher ups say that...

nightmare
i walked down the hall while the lights flicker
i hear my brothers voice calling for my help
i rush in to find what was left of him
while the rest of him stains the walls
i hear more calls of my closest friends
and every time i find them in pieces...
yet on the last one... the girl i loved
i see on the wall "you did this to us"
written in her blood and i collapse
as the lights slowly fade i see a person
i reach for him and he picks me up
i hear his hollow voice
"you caused this now look at your face"
he removes his hood...

memories of the forgotten
i walk as a shadow of my former self and wonder
why did i have to die so early and be cast away
my family never speaks of me and never cried
my friends can’t even remember my name
i see my grave and it begins to fade away
the only one who remembers me is myself
yet slowly i forget who i was as days pass
i sit in silence as i slowly begin to go mad
a ghost yet i feel more like i’m an empty shell
i look at my grave as it breaks to...
