POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Sometimes life treats you hard, but you can live through it with poetry.
home
Home
Tis such strange word
What has its meaning?
Home doesnt come for me
It leaves me in the dark
I long for home
Where my love resides
So far away
Yet always so close
Home
Such a powerful word
What has its purpose?
To enchant
To lure
I try to find it
Yet it evades me
Yet it could save me
Home
Such a respectful word
It diggs out the pure
It doesnt discriminate
It just runs
It just hides

The...
The dark of night
The sting of fright
The light of stars
The gleam of bars
The floor of stone
The hand of bone
The chains of steel
The animal that will never heal
The howl of desire
The fuel for fire
The song of dispaire
The chill of the air
Never go away
Never at bay
Just accept it
Just ignore it
The sting of fright
The light of stars
The gleam of bars
The floor of stone
The hand of bone
The chains of steel
The animal that will never heal
The howl of desire
The fuel for fire
The song of dispaire
The chill of the air
Never go away
Never at bay
Just accept it
Just ignore it

Crimson Drink
Stars overhead
Ground down beneath
Blood runs thick
As I take a sip and say
More
The thirst I feel
The hunger I have
Cannot be satisfied
Give me that crimson drink
The dead mans whiskey
Such beauty
Much life
That has left
The sparkling night
As my kill count grows
As I feed the desire
I would ask for help
But help is not wanted
I am happy
I am glad
My thirst contained
My hunger bottled
By lifes fire
By that crimson drink
Ground down beneath
Blood runs thick
As I take a sip and say
More
The thirst I feel
The hunger I have
Cannot be satisfied
Give me that crimson drink
The dead mans whiskey
Such beauty
Much life
That has left
The sparkling night
As my kill count grows
As I feed the desire
I would ask for help
But help is not wanted
I am happy
I am glad
My thirst contained
My hunger bottled
By lifes fire
By that crimson drink

things
Sitting on the snow
Let it melt
Staring at the sky
Wait for it to eclipse
Laying in bed
Waiting for sleep
Grabbing at clouds
Always missing
Thoughts follow me
Dreams plague me
Words beat me
Books save me
Humans watch me
Animals watch me
These things I cant avoid
Believe me I have tried.
Help me now
Save me later
From these friends
I call things
Let it melt
Staring at the sky
Wait for it to eclipse
Laying in bed
Waiting for sleep
Grabbing at clouds
Always missing
Thoughts follow me
Dreams plague me
Words beat me
Books save me
Humans watch me
Animals watch me
These things I cant avoid
Believe me I have tried.
Help me now
Save me later
From these friends
I call things

live life
Live life
To the fullest
You hear it all the time
But don't know what it means
To you
Till you aproach
Death
A night alone
A suicide planned
I look you in the eyes
And ask you if your dying
And ask what your oing to do
To live your life to the fullest
To the fullest
You hear it all the time
But don't know what it means
To you
Till you aproach
Death
A night alone
A suicide planned
I look you in the eyes
And ask you if your dying
And ask what your oing to do
To live your life to the fullest

but dont leave me
Kill me
Slay me
But never betray me
Cheat on me
Don't belive me
But never leave me
You are my rock
You are shelter
Under the summer swelter
You are my soul
You are my heart
Right from the start
I need you like
I need air
Under your glare
I worry what I did
And how soon you'll
Leave me
You've been feeling distant
I've still been persistant
Asking you only to
Cheat on me
Don't belive me
But never leave me
Slay me
But never betray me
Cheat on me
Don't belive me
But never leave me
You are my rock
You are shelter
Under the summer swelter
You are my soul
You are my heart
Right from the start
I need you like
I need air
Under your glare
I worry what I did
And how soon you'll
Leave me
You've been feeling distant
I've still been persistant
Asking you only to
Cheat on me
Don't belive me
But never leave me

Nightmares
Twisting turning
Always awake
Never to sleep
Forever to quake
A rifle to the head
The devil in your bed
Fire, lightning
Senses heightening
Nightmare nightmares
You haunt me
And scare me
I cannot predict you
You I cannot see
You hide during the day
And play the night away
Running around my head
These thought I dread
I can never sleep
I can never rest
When I am in your presence
I am forever in fear
You almighty
You horrendous
Never leave me alone
You twisted
You disgusting
Horrid nightmares
Always awake
Never to sleep
Forever to quake
A rifle to the head
The devil in your bed
Fire, lightning
Senses heightening
Nightmare nightmares
You haunt me
And scare me
I cannot predict you
You I cannot see
You hide during the day
And play the night away
Running around my head
These thought I dread
I can never sleep
I can never rest
When I am in your presence
I am forever in fear
You almighty
You horrendous
Never leave me alone
You twisted
You disgusting
Horrid nightmares

Hold me
I kiss you
And I hold you
I never let you go
You are my sunshine
Lights my heart bright as day
And never lets it fade away
You've kept me alive
In my darkest times
Always given me hope
All I need is your love
All I want is your touch
All I could ever ask for
Is to be by your side
Keep me close
And hold me dear
For if you don't
I will fade away
To be in your arms
Is all I ask
For all I crave
Is your sweet embrace
Please make my nightmares fade away
And hold me long
And hold me tight
Dont let me...
And I hold you
I never let you go
You are my sunshine
Lights my heart bright as day
And never lets it fade away
You've kept me alive
In my darkest times
Always given me hope
All I need is your love
All I want is your touch
All I could ever ask for
Is to be by your side
Keep me close
And hold me dear
For if you don't
I will fade away
To be in your arms
Is all I ask
For all I crave
Is your sweet embrace
Please make my nightmares fade away
And hold me long
And hold me tight
Dont let me...

No one for me
You are so close to me
Yet so far away
I want to be with you
To hold you
And be held by you
In my eyes you are perfect
In every way
You doubt it and deny it
But what I say is true
There is no one for me
But you
The way you make me smile
The way you make me laugh
Makes my heart flutter
With every beat
Your voice is so captivating
It could lull me to sleep
You doubt it and deny it
But what I say is true
There is no one for me
But you
Yet so far away
I want to be with you
To hold you
And be held by you
In my eyes you are perfect
In every way
You doubt it and deny it
But what I say is true
There is no one for me
But you
The way you make me smile
The way you make me laugh
Makes my heart flutter
With every beat
Your voice is so captivating
It could lull me to sleep
You doubt it and deny it
But what I say is true
There is no one for me
But you

I see you there
All alone
I see your drawings
Your scars
I come to you
And whisper
In your ear
You have fought
And you have won
Many great battles
Come with me now
And those battles
Will no longer haunt you
I will wash away
Your worries
With one brush of my lips
To yours
I will make you forget
Your pain and suffering
I kiss your scars
And brush your hair
From your face
Lean in close
And ask so gently
For me my dear
Please stop
Because i could not bear
The pain
Of loosing you...
All alone

The Phantom Of The Opera
A midnight dance
A half faced mask
Masquerading around
A bride to be
And a secret to keep
He wants her for his
His angel of music
She belongs to another
A much finer man
Phantom gives a demand
The demand is not kept
Keep your hand at your neck
Or beware the noose
An abused man
Turned violent
He comes to her
He sings to her
His Christine
A once grande opera house
A broken chandelier
Where it all begins
And where it all ends
A half faced mask
Masquerading around
A bride to be
And a secret to keep
He wants her for his
His angel of music
She belongs to another
A much finer man
Phantom gives a demand
The demand is not kept
Keep your hand at your neck
Or beware the noose
An abused man
Turned violent
He comes to her
He sings to her
His Christine
A once grande opera house
A broken chandelier
Where it all begins
And where it all ends
