POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Alone
I’m all alone in a room full of people
A genius, yet failing for the dumbest of reasons
I don’t know what I’m doing
I don’t know why I’m here
A lonely outcast, forever alone
I’m told I am handsome
I’m told I am cute
I’m told that I’m sexy
I’m told my hugs are magical
That my kisses are amazing
I’m told that I’m nice
I’m told that I’m sweet
I’m told that my voice is like that of an angel
I’m told that I put words together in magical ways
Yet despite all of that, I’m forever alone
I can play the guitar
I can reason and...

Alice
My darling little angel
I love her more than life
And sometimes I must wonder
If she’d make as good a wife
She’s my best friend in the world
We’re as close as family
With all we share, if more we shared
How perfect life could be
My darling little angel
Couldn’t be more precious if she were mine
She’s like a daughter but so much more
She’s practically divine
When we first met she ran to me
Her arms open wide
I felt complete like she belonged there
Clinging to my side
I love her with a father’s love
Perhaps...

Darkness
Power, lust, a thirst for blood
The darkness cries for more
Violence, carnage, blood and death
But still it’s not enough gore
Chaos, anarchy, senseless death
The darkness thrives on these
Pain and rage, anguish and terror
On these the darkness feeds
Greed, lust and selfish pride
They will not be ignored
And so the world will fall
To a greedy lustful hoard
Drunken lust, and pure brute strength
These make for atrocities
Mayhem, atrocities and mindless acts of rage
To darkness these are simply more...

The Unbearable Dark
Ever so helpless, ever so hopeless
This shadow, this night
So unbearably dark
I’ve no hope for happiness
I’m helpless to find it
In this unbearable dark
This pain runs so deep, as if you carved into me
I find myself screaming
In the unbearable dark
Such pain and such sorrow like I’ve never known
Completely abandoned
In the unbearable dark
All hope is lost, and help is so far
I slowly surrender
To the unbearable dark
This shadow, this night
So unbearably dark
I’ve no hope for happiness
I’m helpless to find it
In this unbearable dark
This pain runs so deep, as if you carved into me
I find myself screaming
In the unbearable dark
Such pain and such sorrow like I’ve never known
Completely abandoned
In the unbearable dark
All hope is lost, and help is so far
I slowly surrender
To the unbearable dark

The pain of what I've lost
I feel as if I’m dying
Crying as I fall
I wish I couldn’t feel a thing
That I felt nothing at all
I can’t describe this awful pain
I wish that it would go away
But all indicators seem to say
My pain is here to stay
To think I once knew happiness
To think I once knew love
I thought you were an angel
Sent from heaven above
I know that we are history
I know that we are done
In the battle between mind and heart
It seems that pain has won
Oh how I yearn to feel the joy
That you once brought to me
But...

Tattered and Shattered
I find my heart completely shattered
I find my soul completely tattered
The ruins of who I used to be
My love torn away
I face another day
Completely and miserably alone
While together she all but beats me
How the pain of loss eats me
There is no way for me to win
My love has gone
But I still struggle on
My pain has no master but me
I have been here before
I know in my core
That in time these wounds will mend
Yet I find myself crying
And wishing I were dying
That I may be spared my grief
I...

I am Stephen
I am Stephen
Katie calls me fag
But to be more accurate
I'm a douche bag
This is Katie
She can be cruel
But to hurt an angel such as her
I truly am a fool
I am Stephen
I am Katie's boyfriend
I will love her
Until the bitter end
This is Katie
She is quite upset
Such love and hate all focused on
Someone she's never met
I am Stephen
A foolish cheat
I die inside every time
I think of my deceit
This is Katie
Who can not let go
Though how she can love me still
I may never know

No It Simply Cannot Be
Since before it all began
There were voices inside of me
Screaming, shouting, telling me
"It simply cannot be!"
When first I held your hand
The night it all began
A voice inside screamed "not so fast"
But I went ahead and ran
When you said you would go out with me
My heart was filled with glee
But deep inside, a solemn voice said
"No, it cannot be"
Shortly after we started dating
I heard a voice inside of me
Screaming those same words again
"You know this cannot be!
What will...

Loss (a poem from years ago)
Sitting here in darkness now
so silent and alone
remembering the joy I had
my heart begins to groan
remembering the way things were
before this misery
the way I felt the joy you felt
controlled like wizardry
I remember how my heart would jump
when I saw or heard from you
how whenever your heart was glad
my heart became glad too
The sweet release my heart would feel
when I brought joy to you
The peace you brought
to mind and heart and soul
quite simply dear to make things short
I loved you with my whole
...

Katie My Love
Every time
I see your pretty face
my heart jumps
and starts to race
your beautiful voice
whenever I hear
so tender and sweet
I grin ear to ear
words can never describe
my feelings for you
to you my heart
will forever stay true
a beautiful goddess
you're perfect my love
sent down to earth
from heaven above
my love for your
is so all consuming
if ever you left me
my heart you'd be dooming
your words are unprecedented
their effects are like magic
the struggles...

Forever In Darkness
Forever in darkness
forever alone
I long for a love
like I've never known
Forever I'm broken
forever I mourn
the one thing I value
from my grasp is torn
I long for escape
from pain without end
unless a vessel of love
Aphrodite doth send
Forever in darkness
forever alone
a longing for the end
in my heart has grown
forever alone
I long for a love
like I've never known
Forever I'm broken
forever I mourn
the one thing I value
from my grasp is torn
I long for escape
from pain without end
unless a vessel of love
Aphrodite doth send
Forever in darkness
forever alone
a longing for the end
in my heart has grown
