POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am a poet. I write what I feel and sometimes how I don't feel. My words may not always rhyme but they will catch your attention.
Cycle
I don’t want to dream about you.
I don’t want you to invade my sleep.
I don’t want you to be in my head.
I want you to get out of there and never come back.
I don’t want you to be the one I see
When I’m lost in my dreams.
I don’t want to see you in my head, in my dreams.
Because when my eyes fly open,
Your face disappears from sight.
And I sit up in my bed, and realize that you did it again.
You got me hooked on you.
You got me hooked on you like a drug.
It took me forever to break the addiction last time.
And now you got me...
I don’t want you to invade my sleep.
I don’t want you to be in my head.
I want you to get out of there and never come back.
I don’t want you to be the one I see
When I’m lost in my dreams.
I don’t want to see you in my head, in my dreams.
Because when my eyes fly open,
Your face disappears from sight.
And I sit up in my bed, and realize that you did it again.
You got me hooked on you.
You got me hooked on you like a drug.
It took me forever to break the addiction last time.
And now you got me...

I'm Falling
I’m falling,
Into a never ending great abyss
Full of monsters that will rip into me
The first chance they get.
I’m bleeding
From the scars and bruises I bear;
The reminders to never trust anyone
With something so fragile like a heart
I’m dying
Slowly but surely
From the gaping whole in my chest
Where my heart used to be
I’m crying
Out for someone to help me
The pain thickens every second
I fall farther down
I’m numb
I feel no touch
I feel no pain
I’m better off this way
I’m drifting...

Your Name
Just the sound of your name makes my heart hurt.
Every time I hear yourname,
I can feel tears flow to my eyes.
So much history, so manymistakes that I wish to not remember.
But just your name makes everysting of those mistakes come rushing back.
But I can deal with thepain; I’ve been doing that for sometime now.
What I can't quite dealwith is
Remembering how we used to be, and how we are now.
We arestrangers; We seem to have forgotten every happy moment between us
Anddwell on the bad.
Why did things have to end the way they did betweenus? ...

Truth Bleeds Lies
Black skies will cloud the earth and fire shall rain down as ash.
Wake up in a dream of the world becoming as noting, lost forever.
The ground shall crack and demons shall spill from the slits of hell.
The angels from above will stare in horror of this mess we call life.
Fire will burn all the left remains of a once great civilization.
Demons shall rule over the earth, and we will be as slaves to them.
The lost will die, they will scream as a scabbard slits their throat.
What could we do, we are only mere souls in a black heart.
The once breathtaking blue...

Eternity’s Requiem
I am the voices of the night that cringe in fear that our sound will not be heard.
I hear those who are lost cry out in pain for the longing to know what is real again.
I see what has happened to myself, being lost in eternity’s requiem much time overdue.
I say the words I will never hear my lips say so long as I can breathe.
I cry violently over the regrets that haunt me for all my days.
I am a broken lost soul forever wandering in the realm of the sacred.
I am the one you will never see; never remember for all your time on earth.
I feel as a broken toy smashed...

Let It Rain Blood
Never in all my dreams did I expect you to vanish.
Depart me and leave me bleeding with a gaping hole in my chest.
I am but a ghost of my former self, only a hollow shell.
You have taken my spirit, the essence of who I am.
Without the heart that you have taken absentmindedly from me,
I lay along side the dirt path, with no place to go.
Mourning my loss of soul, I cry; cry so you will hear me.
Alas I cannot cry hard enough for you to come back.
Blood spiked tears rain from my soul, though you dare to notice.
Without the knowing that you have what I lost, I...

Bloody Apology
Confusion and abstract choke my mind.
Hearts set ablaze burst under the pressure.
Slit in two pieces, bleeding heavily with guilt.
The scabbard looks to me; depression among my face.
The façade of happiness has come crashing down.
Two hearts shattered from one mindless being.
Earthquakes erupt in my head, rains flood my eyes.
Trembling from the monster inside me; fearing it.
Never can I forget what I have done to you.
The pain that hit your face sliced my wrist.
I cannot forgive myself for the words that flew.
Suffocation held me down like a puppet,...

Creature in the Glass
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the biggest liar of them all?
I stand looking into the glass that reflects back to me.
Eyes full of misconception, spirits drowned in shadowed truth.
Why do I not recognize the girl in the mirror?
The girl with the same brown eyes, same confused look.
Staring into the eyes of the beast whose are my own,
I can see nothing; nothing but a void of black emptiness.
This girl is a monster in herself, a creature that can’t see past its own mask.
What is she afraid of? What am I afraid of?

Fake
Insecure eyes see every lie that hides invisible.
Never is there reason to hide from the dark;
Your shadowy presence is already absent.
Clothed in deception, wrapped in lies.
You act as if no one ever stabbed you,
Making you bleed out the cold love you had.
The mask of the trickster you once were,
Has been stuck down and shattered into pieces.
Your façade remains, as a curtain to shield yourself
From every foul soul that dares to see past it.
But my eyes need no curtain to block them.
I’ve seen inside you from the beginning.
No façade, no...

Last Night
Last night everything was like a fairytale.
You and I were in love,
Wewere happy with each other.
There was no one else.
Everything wasperfect.
Last night something happened,
Something was said
That shouldhave never been thought.
Apologies and forgiveness was absent,
Andneither one of us slept.
Last night snow fell from the sky
As we bothspent time alone.
Time was taken to think,
Think of the things thatnever should be thought.
We were strangers.
Last night words flewbetween us,
Words that stuck sharper...

The Soldier's Sister
Your door is cracked, I sneak a peek inside.
Everything is exactly as it was; I nearly cried.
I've been counting the days since you left.
The pain of missing you is like a slow form of death.
You traveled over seas, to far away lands.
You're giving your life for all of man.
But I can't help miss you; miss you bad.
I miss talking to you; you were all I had.
Why did you have to leave me for a land so far away,
For guns and toys of horrible dismay?
I may never know, but I may never ask.
I cry over your absence at night; I miss our past.
When we...

Silent Screams
Children are pure, they are white like snow.
But one man decided to let that thought go.
He took her, an innocent little girl.
He took her and he killed her whole world.
Undressed her in the dark, tears on her face.
Now how she sees herself is only disgrace.
He was brute and forceful, he wanted what she had.
She thought it was punishment for something she did bad.
He enjoyed her for hours on end,
With her screams silently mixed in.
Everything she once had was taken away.
Her thoughts on life are beginning to go array.
She couldn’t even see his...
