Orgy of Death
For those I hate
Fucking hell
Beneath the skin
An open wound
Thirsty for blood, hunger for flesh
Scattered carnage
Wriggling torsos
Pungent, infested disease
Brain candy for dessert
Vomiting repugnance
To die again
Fucking hell
Beneath the skin
An open wound
Thirsty for blood, hunger for flesh
Scattered carnage
Wriggling torsos
Pungent, infested disease
Brain candy for dessert
Vomiting repugnance
To die again

Grief Lives After We Die
As I die
mortals watch the day
crying for eternity
embrace your hand in mine
daylight torn
pity the sadness
no forgiveness
forever be
burning me
mortals watch the day
crying for eternity
embrace your hand in mine
daylight torn
pity the sadness
no forgiveness
forever be
burning me

Restrained
I am nothing
A darkness coming
nightmares by the sea
I tried to leave
right into the bliss
no good can come from this
my punishment strained
in death i am chained
my demons create tonight's decision
A darkness coming

I tried to leave

The Forgotten
Curse the sunrise
To sleep eternally
Lost kingdom of darkness
Centuries old
Eternal tragedy
Embrace the emptiness
Dissolve in sorrow

red petal flowers
muddled,
red petal
flowers
bright
and dried,
using
the paint
from
her veins.

What?
I don’t actually know what to say
I don’t know what to write
I’m just in shock.

Exit Stage Left
Looking outside and inside
Pressures,
Barriers,
PANIC!!
Today is a fine day to escape
Morals are broken
Unknown mystery to my fate
Accept my soul as I release,
Wishing for everlasting peace

Senryu - Ponder 8
This life, but a clause
in an infinite sentence
death is not full stop
in an infinite sentence
death is not full stop

Inevitable
Shadows in our room
We all must go to the morgue
Death is observing

voices of ancestors
i heard
the sound
of flutes
playing in
the garden,
the fields,
leaves
alive now
with spirits,
no one
is asleep
in the far off
graveyard,
ancestors
wait,
their voices
come from
the
moist soil,
they
let me know
dreams
still exist.

Senryu: Hard, Beautiful Adieu
The face still handsome
yet he is no longer there
