POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write these words, but do you care?~ Dissect my life, soul left bare~ Write for me, and I for you~ Just keep sure your pen stays true~
Cask of Amontillado
Revenge from a blow
How far will it go
Death with scent of wine
His life shall be mine
Bound by lock and chain
Fits of laughter he cant contain
Trickery is what he believes
Betrayal is what he receives
Skilled hand makes your wall
Sorrow pleads you shall call
Left alone to think of past
As for me, my lovely cask
How far will it go
Death with scent of wine
His life shall be mine
Bound by lock and chain
Fits of laughter he cant contain
Trickery is what he believes
Betrayal is what he receives
Skilled hand makes your wall
Sorrow pleads you shall call
Left alone to think of past
As for me, my lovely cask

Signs
sign after sign came, I ignored them all
the time has finally come, time to fall
I don’t believe in god, don’t pray for me
you won’t miss me, just wait and see
I’m worthless, go ahead and talk your shit
you say you’re hurting, but I’m the one to take the hit
I promised not to cry, but I can’t take it anymore
a burden to this family, to this world i was a sore
I tried to walk away, I tried to shut the door
but always drug back, just to suffer more
and when I’m dead and gone, who will curse my name?
If it was your fault, will you feel...

My Angel
Angel invaded my waking dreams
Comes just for me it seems
Beauty and a mind with no match
Heart torn open, love was the patch
So sweet and so kind to me
Much more to then you could see
Haunts my thoughts you can't understand
I need help, there’s always her hand
She kisses me, makes my heart stir
Makes me cry to think of her
Pure love mixed with my sins
Your sweet smiles, my evil grins
You and me are not meant to be
You are just too good for me
Comes just for me it seems
Beauty and a mind with no match
Heart torn open, love was the patch
So sweet and so kind to me
Much more to then you could see
Haunts my thoughts you can't understand
I need help, there’s always her hand
She kisses me, makes my heart stir
Makes me cry to think of her
Pure love mixed with my sins
Your sweet smiles, my evil grins
You and me are not meant to be
You are just too good for me

Feelings
The deepness of my heart is unexplored
The feelings are trapped and ignored
Hide from life and from all that i care
You want inside my mind, try if you dare
I want to love, and I want to hate
Looking for them, looking for my mate
I want to feel as you do
Wishing i could feel too
Longing for the feelings you all express
Bottled away behind life's stress
If yours were there, surely I would steal
Maybe when I die, I will finally feel
The feelings are trapped and ignored
Hide from life and from all that i care
You want inside my mind, try if you dare
I want to love, and I want to hate
Looking for them, looking for my mate
I want to feel as you do
Wishing i could feel too
Longing for the feelings you all express
Bottled away behind life's stress
If yours were there, surely I would steal
Maybe when I die, I will finally feel

Haiku
Hate, depression, fear
Crying out, for all to hear
But none see my tear
Snuffing your life’s spark
Death left his eternal mark
Withering in dark
Caught in my futile
chase. No meaning, I’ve no place
Red tears trace my face
Banished soul, cursed heart
Love of my life, ripped apart
The sweet turns to tart
Crying out, for all to hear
But none see my tear
Snuffing your life’s spark
Death left his eternal mark
Withering in dark
Caught in my futile
chase. No meaning, I’ve no place
Red tears trace my face
Banished soul, cursed heart
Love of my life, ripped apart
The sweet turns to tart

art
Gentle strokes with the brush
Endless time, with no rush
Perfect rhythm, perfect art
You'll never finish, until you start
Find your calling, then let go
Forget what you already know
Do something new, never before
Give it love, and work until sore
Express who you are, and be loud
And when its complete
Then sit back, and be proud
Endless time, with no rush
Perfect rhythm, perfect art
You'll never finish, until you start
Find your calling, then let go
Forget what you already know
Do something new, never before
Give it love, and work until sore
Express who you are, and be loud
And when its complete
Then sit back, and be proud

hidden secret
Walls surround my every path
Caging my love, and my wrath
Emotions trapped deep within
Unspeakable truths and unheard sin
Stowed away, locked at key
Burning and itching to be free
Feelings forced out of mind
Secret truths yet to find
Explore my mind, what do you see?
The hidden horrors deep inside me
Protect myself from them all
Brace myself before the fall
Crack my skull, let it flow
There are some things inside
You should never know
Caging my love, and my wrath
Emotions trapped deep within
Unspeakable truths and unheard sin
Stowed away, locked at key
Burning and itching to be free
Feelings forced out of mind
Secret truths yet to find
Explore my mind, what do you see?
The hidden horrors deep inside me
Protect myself from them all
Brace myself before the fall
Crack my skull, let it flow
There are some things inside
You should never know

long wait
a deep dark hole lays within my heart
slowly and painfully shredding me apart
I try and I try to subside the pain
but whatever I do, there is no gain
I’ve been shot, stabbed and broken a bone
but nothing is compared to being alone
every night i catch myself crying
and every night i feel myself dyeing
too many wounds, too many to mend
waiting for my tainted soul to transcend
cant do it myself, forced an agonizing wait
sorrow every last second
that is my fate
slowly and painfully shredding me apart
I try and I try to subside the pain
but whatever I do, there is no gain
I’ve been shot, stabbed and broken a bone
but nothing is compared to being alone
every night i catch myself crying
and every night i feel myself dyeing
too many wounds, too many to mend
waiting for my tainted soul to transcend
cant do it myself, forced an agonizing wait
sorrow every last second
that is my fate
