Death, Not Glory
"If battle were to rise, I will sacrifice myself to serve my people, my home, my land, and my town
I will not stand aside while innocent lifeblood is being shed
Joyous smiles have not been presented to our town for multiple decades; only dreary frowns
Sorrow flows melodiously through our howling winds, gifting us with dejection and the fear of bloodshed
What are we to do when Deceit wears the shining crown?"
With freshly sharpened swords raised to the heavens, the warriors are ready for battle
Shouting a fierce battle cry, they rush into enemy territory...

The Blade of Vengeance
With unforgiving words, down to the barest of bone, you slashed!
Depriving my elated soul from its now lifeless corpse, leaving deep, bloody gashes
Due to the cruelty you crafted, I am left forsaken evermore
From your harsh tongue and cruel hands, I repeatedly receive a thousand angry lashes
Both visible and hidden scars mark my body proportionately
Through them, you sign your dirty, obscene, offensive, and immoral name to my once pure flesh
My virtue, you stole, and my body's skin is thickly coated with unwashable grime
I am a stained, tainted, decaying...

A Rainbow
An iridescent, sparkling, vivacious rainbow glitters in the loving daylight
A baby born of the Sweet Lullabies that nourish the earth and our Colossal Star
What an awe-inspiring phenomenon it is to behold such a polychromatic sight
And it appears bearing a gift; a bit of joy, wrapped with a bow, to diminish our sorrows from afar
This child has saved you and allowed you to recover from your own penitentiary
Giving you hope and faith when all else was not even present
After one lingering glance at this newborn infant with vibrant, multihued eyes, you can see its...

Religion
I shall be the one to bring about my own demise
My battles, actions, and deeds will determine my fate
I see the world, along with the people who inhabit it, with my own eyes
For what I know, and knowing me, I say that this is surely great
How can we say that religion is accurate?!?!?!
It has only came about due to our fear
For when we could not find the answers, we crafted it
Invisible, shimmering curtains appear between diverse communities; ever so sheer
A society divided cannot stand
And until we realize this, we will have divisions, and life...

Two Colliding Worlds
In life, we are driven by a powerful force within us
A force that allows us to dig deep in uncertainty
Binding our minds in a state of equality
Leaving us between two colliding worlds
Two fires interlace with our desires
Binding passions with raw energy and determination
Both allow us to approach accomplishment and completion
However, they are lovely contrasts
These fires feed off of the other’s inverse
One fire naturally feeds off of sanguinity
While the other is like ice; feeding off of negativity
The blazing flames are...

Depression
Creeping upon the living, it dances its way into your inner core
Binding itself to you, leaving no room for fresh invaders
For it creates a decrepit corpse by consuming flesh and crafting bloody gore
Once you are devoured, it will move on to claim yet another victim with mournful whispers
It generates debilitated essences within our bodies
Casting its lonely shadow down upon the joyful spirits we have once known
It becomes a plague that no one can seem to appease
What was a delightful soul, is now despondent; feeling alone
Irises of pooling...

Beginning Anew
Lightning strikes beating innocence
Solemn droplets fall from the once bright, blue sky
In the air, grief becomes the all- consuming fragrance
What was dazzling is now a dull melancholy
Clouds shed their lonely tears upon the welcoming ground
For they must to appease their sorrowful spirits
Fears, doubts, and tragedies plague their minds with a thundering sound
They drift, looking for a safe place to reveal interpersonal secrets
Misery echoes in the wind; whispering thoughts of agony
So averse to overcome hardships and sufferings,
But willing...

Together
Strip me from my earthly form, but leave my soul exposed
Peel back my flesh and see the immaculate beauty within
Open these doors of passion, for they have been forever closed
Release me from my prison and allow us to begin
Bind me to you in a way that has never been done before
Take my hand, whisper in my ear, kiss my lips, and bestow upon me your soul
To mix ours as one, your essence, you shall pour
As one we are incomplete, but together we are whole
Dance within my utmost interpersonal thoughts and dreams
Guide me through...

Longing For Something Unknown
The endless hunger begins to consume
Longing for the sensation all have spoken of, but rarely felt
But the question is from whom
Who will satisfy my ever- growing hunger?
The eternal thirst overwhelms
Yearning for a sip of the delectable unknown
But the question is where I will find it amid these realms
Who will quench my everlasting thirst?
Countless will be affected
Innocent hearts will be torn and glistening tears will be shed
But all will be forgotten
These results, will they ever cease?
Will I ever reach satisfaction?...

A Vampyre’s Enquiries
The endless hunger begins to consume
Longing for the taste of sweet flesh
But the question is from whom
Who will satisfy my immortal hunger?
The eternal thirst overwhelms
Yearning for a sip of the finest crimson delight
But the question is where I will find it amid these realms
Who will quench my everlasting thirst?
Countless will be bitten
Flesh will be torn and blood will be shed
But all will be forgotten
These habits, will I ever cease?
Will I ever reach satisfaction?
Will my teeth ever sink into the right victim?...

A Priceless Treasure
Cheerful blues evanesce into effervescent violets
Various shades of bashful pink and glittering amethyst illuminate the atmosphere
Together they fuse to produce a sky so picturesque
A type of pure, genuine, effortless beauty that I have fallen deeply for and hold dear
The light of day slowly dwindles into the dark of the night
The resplendent, silver, virtually full moon shines radiantly upon the earth this fine evening
An enchanting, captivating sight that very few notice
A view that will hypnotize the mortal soul and leave an eternal stain...

The Demon Within (The Creature)
It hides within the darkest shadows of the night
Creeping ever so slowly out of sight
Watching as the rest of the world travels along
Singing to an entirely different song
Seldom has it ever been seen
For a glimpse of this creature, your observances must be keen
Rarely, it gifts you with its presence
Traditionally, the method of choice is absolute voidance
What little that can be seen is pale, white, and sparkling skin
A contrast to the darkness it is shrouded in
Dark iridescent sapphire eyes glow amid the blackest shadow
Thick blackened...
