POEMS AND SHORT STORIES

In the morning there is nothing left.
All the earth has is destruction and self defeat.
Everything that we have learned from discovery
hurt, compare, despair
It forms a bubble around me.
I wish I could break free,
but I have an unknown weight keeping me in place.
An ache in the pit of my stomach gives me an urge to jump
but from where?
I don't feel anything.
I see the roots of trees and plants breaking through from beneath the earth
The feeling to break free from being held captive must be magnificent.
I wish I was magnificent.

its written on the walls
disgust stains my walls like wine on a white wedding gown
hidden behind shelves of empty bottles
as i drench myself in sweet acidic hymms of denial
the feelings of needles and thorns pretending to puncture my limbs
and purple bruises envelope my once virgin skin
caused by repetitive attempts to soothe the ache
is it sick that it excites me?

the feelings of needles and thorns pretending to puncture my limbs
and purple bruises envelope my once virgin skin

they say ignorance is bliss
Corruptive lullabyes
written on sheets as worshiped words
Engraved into the minds of the oblivious
Guardians of the nescient soul
Spoils the spirit of the young naiive
Carousels of misconceptions never ending
married to lost communications in time
breeding tangled thoughts
clings to what each of them proclaim
Simply strains of cleverness misunderstood
As ignorance continues to choke down its shame
written on sheets as worshiped words
Engraved into the minds of the oblivious
Guardians of the nescient soul
Spoils the spirit of the young naiive
Carousels of misconceptions never ending
married to lost communications in time
breeding tangled thoughts
clings to what each of them proclaim
Simply strains of cleverness misunderstood
As ignorance continues to choke down its shame

dream to death
I had a dream last night
that there was no reason for me to live.
I will not survive this life.
Fall back on my bed of nails
role into my casket,
I keep my eyes open, for I wish to watch it close
Close on all my memories
forgotten in the darkest parts of my soul
Shivers fill my being as I shake
attempting to find the voice that sounds foreign to my ear
sweet cynical laughs of terror overtake my fear
words of my family filling my mind, that turns so hypnotically into a cry
I lay there cold, helpless, my skin turning dry
aren't I beautiful?...
that there was no reason for me to live.
I will not survive this life.
Fall back on my bed of nails
role into my casket,
I keep my eyes open, for I wish to watch it close
Close on all my memories
forgotten in the darkest parts of my soul
Shivers fill my being as I shake
attempting to find the voice that sounds foreign to my ear
sweet cynical laughs of terror overtake my fear
words of my family filling my mind, that turns so hypnotically into a cry
I lay there cold, helpless, my skin turning dry
aren't I beautiful?...

cuts
cut a little bit.
no never.
feel the blade slice my skin.
not again.
cold, silver loveliness pushing its way through.
oh god, what will i do.
blood bubbles out, red drips, warm and thick.
please no.
cut a little more.
quick and fast, the pain feels like an epic game.
more more.
when will this be over?
no no, I don't want it to end.
cut a little bit.

feel the blade slice my skin.
not again.

self destruction
If only for a night I could close my eyes and not be pulled into a sea of destruction,
stabbing me with memories i'd much rather forget;
the lies I have told myself to keep me sane
then realize they'd be the death of me.
If only for a little while I could have some peace
but i suppose peace is something that is beyond my grasp,
so i fall to my knees asking for forgiveness to the one I've hurt the most
I look up to see my eyes looking back.

night terrors
I cross the road to the pitch black
to follow that little spark in the depths of my heart
it takes over my vitals, making me high
I try to stay grounded but I give up as tears swell up in my eyes
my body goes cold; limp
As i watch my breath dance around my face in a white cloud
so real i could feel it?
It's not at all what I expected
the road didn't lead to where I thought
lost inside my dreaming
screaming to get out
I attempt to chase away my demons
but they continue to break me down while muting all sound that seeped through the light from...
