POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write books and poetry, mainly dark ones. I get my ideas from the hard life I've been living. Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you.
Depression
But who can see depression? Who knows when it's there.
And when you're left alone thinking, what's in its despair?
If the pain and the torment rely on your hate, then the corruption you feel wasn't based off of fate.
When your mind has gone crazy and the madness sets in, whose to say what you feel is your imagination?
When the voices scream louder, and you're falling apart- when the memories break down and leave holes in your heart,
When you can no longer breath, and your legs are giving out, and the sadness you feel is just starting to sprout.
When your SOUL is left...

The Wind
I whispered I was sorry, but the wind erased my voice. The pain that dwelled inside, was not a given choice.
And each sad uncertain tremble of the tainted frozen hearts, was buried in the sadness, before they broke apart.
Forever isn't long enough to cancel out these screams. Although I wonder why I hear them, only in my dreams.
I've heard the tune many times of the soul's broken melody. The look of horror in their eyes, remains a painful memory.
Thrilling to hear; these poor voices of agony and sin. In Hell, it was the dead who shrieked and groaned within.

Ashes To Ashes
The buildings crumble, and the world collapses underneath our feet.
Our calloused fingers work day and night, as we walk in the heat.
The fires burn and destroy everything. Bodies lay enflamed on the ground. Ashes to ashes we all fall down.
One by one we all die off, the death toll rises, but our money-hungry leaders laugh, and say "it's not enough" The more we work and destroy, the more they make off our labor, and celebrate with joy.
But as the ashes rain down, and pour to the floor, countless lives are taken in these fires, aching to devour more.
Soon we will...

Eyes In The Window
They peer at me each night. While other monsters prowl, this one creeps under the pale moon's light. Those hollow, sunken eyes that watch me sleep. The eyes in the window, staring in my life so deep. When I wake, I see them. Hoping my eyes are unfaithful, I wish it to be a mistake. It's just an illusion, that's what I've come to believe. But instead, it's an intrusion. He comes to haunt me, to break me inside. And though I'm in my room, i'm still not safe, even when I hide. but in a blink of an eye, he's gone. To this day, I tell no one of the eyes in the window that come each night. Perhaps...

Voices
I hear them everyday, and they're driving me insane. These voices bringing me pain. They torture my mind, and they inject through my head like needles in my skin. What they want I can't seem to find. These earpiercing screams, pull me under, and haunt my once pleasant dreams. These voices drove my sanity off a cliff, and left me hangin on the rope that was left. Voices in my head leave me here for dead. Cradling what's left of me, I embrace the last of my sympathy. I tried to fight it, but as my eyes turn black, and my soul gives away, my heart slowly collapses under the weight. I slip, and...

Unforgiven
All the things you've done, all the pain you've caused, you took what you loved, and now it's gone.
The world forgot me and im all alone, this pain I feel, I have never known. But is it me? Am I the reason evil had gotten free? Or is it you, who had failed at what you were told to do. Such a fault is unknown. I have always been hated, and those feeling never faded. This world is almost through. And I blame you.

Mistakes
My slumbering soul awakes, just to remind me all the sorrow of my sad mistakes.
On my heart, I put a strain, I guess it couldn't handle all this pain.
But that's just another mistake I made, and another price I already paid. I search for answers that don't exist. I almost touched the light, but again I missed.
My mistaken path leads me astray, my feet are unaccustomed to this new way.
But I must remember to beware, cause another mistake takes place when I care.
I remain lost in my mistakes, hopefully this time, my slumbering soul, will never wake.

Creature Inside
Though you cannot see him, he is there, hiding amongst us, inside our fears. The worst is yet to come, and we remain still, waiting for the sun. Night is upon us, and we tremble in the eyes of a creature far too precarious. Dawn draws near as we struggle to keep our conscience clear. But this creature is like no other. It can always find us, even though we cling to our sister and hide behind our brother. It's there, watching, making us go insane, letting us endure excesive amounts of pain. This creature is a monster, and it is us that it will conquer. It's heart beats in our ears like nails...

Him
I'll be okay just not today. So keep knocking at my door, but i'm walking away. Rattle the doornob, but i'll pretend i'm not home, i'll sit by the window and cry In my room. Sympathy isn't what I need right now, just let me be alone. I need to break down. I don't need anyone unless it's him. He's the only one I care about, and only one i'll let in. He doesn't know I love him, now you know why I cry. i'll be just fine, pretending i'm not. Now you know why. He's all I got.

River
At the bottom of this river, there lye forgotten souls. Most of then have been sold. How cold. This is Satan's river, no one can go by it, without the slightest quiver. These souls have sinned, you fell the breeze, yet there's no wind. His river, cold black water, he is not a giver. There is no life in these waters of tears, we can't extract our fears. Till our last breaths we are terrified. The ground gives away under him, and the river consumes all sins. Any man would tremble at his feet. He peers into your soul when you first meet. Your insides give away, you see black, then into the...

Stalk
I will never understand the way you look at me, or the reason that you do, this world is full of hatred. That includes me and you. I walk, you stalk, I stay in the house with all my locks. My windows and doors shatter to the floor. I know I'm not safe anymore. You broke in my house, you're as quiet as a mouse. I'm living in fear, I'm loosing my eyesight, i forgot how to hear. You enter my home.why can't he leave me alone? I run to my room, close my closet door. Curdle in the corner on the floor. I hear footsteps drawing near. The door opens, he grabs me, I let go a tear. He lays me on the...

Take me back to a place where it all began, back to a place so beautiful to no end. Where betrayal won't beget blood, and regret won't stain the mud. Vengance won't be taken upon the innocent, in our own ways, we are all diligent. But you see, just because we've been dealt a certain hand, doesn't mean we can't rise above and take a stand. We must conquer the boundaries of a destiny none of us wanted, one thing we all wished could have been granted. Bury all your feelings that you can, uphold the law unlike any ordinary man.
