POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here" "I am Ozymandias, King of Kings, look upon my works, ye mighty, and despair."
Atom
The word atom it brings a shine
A feeling I could never define
A molecule is even more
Than something I adore
Science is my one true love
Yet it never flies, oh white dove
Physics is all I require
For this tainted hearts desire
Trusting in the stone of fact
Giving me all that I once lacked
If I should die today
I pray that physics would always stay
A feeling I could never define
A molecule is even more
Than something I adore
Science is my one true love
Yet it never flies, oh white dove
Physics is all I require
For this tainted hearts desire
Trusting in the stone of fact
Giving me all that I once lacked
If I should die today
I pray that physics would always stay

My mind is Numbing All emotions escape me I'm a blank canvas Yet to be painted on I'm a white page Written on in blood Not my own never mine ...

Requiem for Innocence
Won't someone save the children?
I fear nobody will.
They're hiding in the shadows
As Darkness comes to kill.
They've barely started living,
But evil doesn't care.
This killer has no mercy;
Not one of them he'll spare.
The boy who dreamed of freedom:
He is the first to die.
He wanted peace and justice;
He never ceased to try.
He lived life with a passion;
He loved with all his heart.
You see, he felt too strongly
From the very start.
I hear the cries of younglings
As they're sent into the grave
By...
I fear nobody will.
They're hiding in the shadows
As Darkness comes to kill.
They've barely started living,
But evil doesn't care.
This killer has no mercy;
Not one of them he'll spare.

Midnight is Upon Us
Midnight is upon us
To some this brings fright
For me it is a plus
For I love the night
It hides your face
It hides your deeds
It hides what you sow
Madness seeds
I watch them pass
All happy and glad
Yet they don't know
They'll soon turn mad
They'll hate and seethe
And dare each other
To merely breath
For man is a simple being
To turn them,
is not simply mean
It is part of a plan
As is everything I do
But watch out
I'm coming for you...

The Killing
I line them up against the wall
I have a thing to kill them all,
I walk up to them one by one
And introduce them to my gun.
And with the shots there comes the blood
And the bodies fall with soft thuds,
And on the ground they start to shake
Once asleep they will never wake.
And then a shadow comes to play
In all their bloody mess today,
The shadow thirst and takes a drink
The crimson puddle starts to shrink
At this sight I begin to smile
I will be happy, for a while,
But then it sees me, gets a fright
And spreads black...

Mortality
Despair looms over me
As thick as honey
Drowning within it
No matter how hard you try
You can't get to the sweet air
I feel vulnerable, open
to conjecture and judgment
It never leaves me be
Vulnerability destroys me
I bleed
Eyes view me
As a piece of meat
To be devoured
But, they'll make you wait
For the blow that will
Send you into darkness
This is Mortality
As thick as honey
Drowning within it
No matter how hard you try
You can't get to the sweet air
I feel vulnerable, open
to conjecture and judgment
It never leaves me be
Vulnerability destroys me
I bleed
Eyes view me
As a piece of meat
To be devoured
But, they'll make you wait
For the blow that will
Send you into darkness
This is Mortality

Finally
(I suggest reading "Want" first)
I can't stand it
My room is white
White to the left
And more white above
The pills dull my senses
A schizophrenic to the right
An anorexic to the left
But across the hall is perfect
With black hair and blue eyes
With more scars than I
She smiled at me, seductively
I returned it with a smile of my own
So we started talking, Jenny
Beautiful name, I said
She replied with a kiss
I grabbed her breast
We went to my room
And kissed
She stroked my scars...

Want
I want that girl
To make me forget about the pain
I want that one
That will make me forget the other
I want her to beg me
To become one with her
I want her to stroke the scars
On my arms, and wrists
I want that excitement
Of not feeling dead
I want that soft lips
Pressed against mine
I want the girl
That's not perfect
In the worlds eyes
But in mine
I want to feel her
Close around me
Pressing her nails in my back
Letting the blood flow
I want the one
That screams my name
And kisses...

Miss the titan
What I left behind
Is nothing of importance
Just indifference and ignorance
Hatred and lies
What I regret
leaving behind is my release
That titan
made of stainless steel
I'm gonna miss her
My most loyal friend
My real lover
The one who understands me
I'm gonna miss her cold touch
As I drag her
across my scarred skin
And see the blood flow
I'm gonna miss her
The titan
Made of stainless steel
My friend
Is nothing of importance
Just indifference and ignorance
Hatred and lies
What I regret
leaving behind is my release
That titan
made of stainless steel
I'm gonna miss her
My most loyal friend
My real lover
The one who understands me
I'm gonna miss her cold touch
As I drag her
across my scarred skin
And see the blood flow
I'm gonna miss her
The titan
Made of stainless steel
My friend

the betrayel
One day, after school
I acted like a total fool
I told a friend I like to see
My blood flowing from me
He told a teacher
Who contacted the family preacher
Who talked to me
About a god, who "loves thee"
I told him to go away
But never did he sway
In his pursuit
To kick my devil with his boot
Seeing it was no use
He nearly blew a fuse
He told my mother
Who got beaten by my brother
So they sent my poor self
And took down my picture on the shelf
The sent me to an institution
And thought of it...

Jack and Jill
Jack and Jill
Went up the Hill
And waited for the Kill
Waiting, for the Thrill
Oh, you wicked Jack
Oh, you twisted Jill
Up on that cursed Hill
Where you never turn Back
Jill had a Plan
Jack had no Clue
He'll end in a Can
His family all Blue
Oh, you evil Psychopath
Jack will face Jill's Wrath
On the cursed Hill
Jill will be free to Kill
Went up the Hill
And waited for the Kill
Waiting, for the Thrill
Oh, you wicked Jack
Oh, you twisted Jill
Up on that cursed Hill
Where you never turn Back
Jill had a Plan
Jack had no Clue
He'll end in a Can
His family all Blue
Oh, you evil Psychopath
Jack will face Jill's Wrath
On the cursed Hill
Jill will be free to Kill

Mother caught me
Mother caught me
with the crimson blade
What she saw
wiped the smile
on her face
Mother caught me
with blood on my hands
With her tears
she cleansed the cut
It stung
It made it more real
I laughed
at her attempt
to make it heal
Mother saw them all
The old scars
and realized
she couldn't help
She fled from me
and my bloodstained hands
Called the therapist
She took me away
For three months
they held me
Three months of therapy
And pills and group and restraints
I...
