POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have a dark side and some would think that is very weird considering my behavior.
Let Me Go
Let me go
into that dark abyss
where no one else
travels
Let me think
of that next move
that will shatter your
heart
Let me have
all those wonderful
memories so I can shove
them away in that
box
Let me see
how much time I
have left on that
damn ticking
clock
Let me hear
your screams for
mercy as I lock you
inside my
soul
Let me walk
on the shards of
roses that died before
they had a chance to
live
Let me live
long enough to
watch you
die
into that dark abyss
where no one else
travels
Let me think
of that next move
that will shatter your
heart
Let me have
all those wonderful
memories so I can shove
them away in that
box
Let me see
how much time I
have left on that
damn ticking
clock
Let me hear
your screams for
mercy as I lock you
inside my
soul
Let me walk
on the shards of
roses that died before
they had a chance to
live
Let me live
long enough to
watch you
die

Waltz With Me?
Lets dance until our feet bleed.
Forever twirling, around the room.
Dips and swings, into your arms,
Don't drop me, just kiss me.
Candles burn, and the fire starts
Keep dancing with me
We shall never stop.
The record player melts, but
we carry our own tune.
Around the room we go,
steps never falter.
Laughter and smiles
Effects dizzying
Over and over
as we dance burning
in each others arms,
Forever twirling, around the room.
Forever twirling, around the room.
Dips and swings, into your arms,
Don't drop me, just kiss me.
Candles burn, and the fire starts
Keep dancing with me
We shall never stop.
The record player melts, but
we carry our own tune.
Around the room we go,
steps never falter.
Laughter and smiles
Effects dizzying
Over and over
as we dance burning
in each others arms,
Forever twirling, around the room.

Wishing the Night Away
I adore you
I want to be with you
We meet in secret
Take me away
Forever
Let's wish the night away....

Love is a disease
Love is a disease that everyone wants to catch.
It grabs you by the heart and when it lets go
it leaves your heart crumpled and broken.
I was in love, maybe I still am
My mind says NO but my heart
screams YES!
It hurts to think of the past
My old scars stretch open
and the stitches pop
It's like ripping the band-aid
off a healing wound and pouring
salt on it....It hurts like hell.
I want to hate it, but I can't
I want to forget it, but it comes
back to me in a rush like a dream
I want to love it, but I can't let it ...

My Personal Jar of Hearts
My heart breaks all over at the mention of his
name. And yet, it still cries out for him.
But I will not give in. I can fight my own demons
but those who carry heart arrows are the hardest to kill.
Wielding the blade of hate, I will murder every one of those
little heartless bastards. And I will keep their broken arrows
in a jar, my own little jar of hearts.

Never Meant To Be Found (Part 1)
I always knew he was the one who lived that house. I knew deep in my mind what he had done, but somehow I can't remember . . .
Everyday I would watch him stand at the edge of his yard waiting for a girl to come round the corner. He would then invite her in and near an hour later she would come out looking slightly shaken, but other times she would come out looking as she did when she went in. Why am I spying on this guy is a good question, but the reason is that something about him rings a little tiny bell in my head that I am unconsciously aware of. In my house there is...

Hell is my Haven
Life is a never ending
suicidal trance
Hypnotic like a ventriliquist in his never ending
games of making the dummy speak.
whispering, walking and listening to the winds
like no one ever hears you.
Seems like they perfect way to die
don't you think?
No one will hear you.

A Picnic on the Beach
Listening as the waves crash along
the shore, guppies chasing the tide back
into the ocean. Summer winds blowing
colorful kites through the air.
Oh how I love those blue skies.

In Perfect Harmony
A moonlight path where
our feet walk in tune with
the Earth. What is he thinking?
As we walk up the hill
to the beautiful sight of the
magnificent country-side.
Watching the stars as we lay
in the fields of flowers and
beautiful magnolia's
Cuddled together in perfect
harmony
A deep comforting feeling to
be held in his arms and
so close to his heart.
In Perfect Harmony.

Keys to a good mood.
A soothing touch
a warming gaze
A comfortable hug.

A Feeling inspired by my Wonderful Boyfriend
The touch, the feel
of warm hands encircled
around my hips.
A kiss that lasts longer
than one would think it should.
True love and comfort, safety
loving arms and two hearts
beating.
He is my superhero, my friend
who is more than a friend.
He replaced my heart
with his and now he is a part of
me and I him.

Black Ice
Chills run down my spine
and goosebumps cover my flesh.
I feel it coming, I can sense its thirst
for the taste of human organs.
A hideous creature it is,
A nightmare to the monsters inside
of the worst nightmares.
Midnight wings covered with scales
and breath as black as ice.
That is what my mind is telling me
of what it looks like. My heart knows
better, it says that it is unimagineable.
As deadly as a viper.
Hiding will do no good, it always knows
where you are. Running will only make its
hunt more...
