darkness draws so close
I should have something to say

The Scraping Of My Bone
Blood stains on the concrete wall
Red rivers flowing on the floor
Hidden shadows in corners crawl
A chilling draft creaking the door
The flickering light enrages
As I quickly scan the room
Clanging sounds of rattling cages
This torture chamber of doom
His dirty hands and jagged nails
Slowly dragging his hatchet
The smell of bloody entrails
Filled with crawling maggots
Soulless black beady eyes
Gazed hauntingly into mine
Echoes of blood curdling cries
Psychological torture by design ...
Red rivers flowing on the floor
Hidden shadows in corners crawl
A chilling draft creaking the door
The flickering light enrages
As I quickly scan the room
Clanging sounds of rattling cages
This torture chamber of doom
His dirty hands and jagged nails
Slowly dragging his hatchet
The smell of bloody entrails
Filled with crawling maggots
Soulless black beady eyes
Gazed hauntingly into mine
Echoes of blood curdling cries

The Aversion You Live
Fields of delight
Smell the lie divine
Right this way
Do not decline
Taste the deceit
Your version that might
be more sweet
than the aversion you live
Standing outside the fire
Standing there you lust
Virility smolders into
a tepid perversion of
an orange sky
Your ashes into it
Smell the lie divine
Right this way
Do not decline
Taste the deceit
Your version that might
be more sweet
than the aversion you live
Standing outside the fire
Standing there you lust
Virility smolders into
a tepid perversion of
an orange sky
Your ashes into it

Winter comfort
I used to speak, to share my pain,
But every word was met with rain—
Not the kind that heals the ground,
Just the kind that pulls me down.
So now I keep my heart locked tight,
No more trust, no more light.
Why spill my soul when all I find
Are empty ears and colder minds?
So here’s my truth, my sad refrain:
I’ll crack a can, let silence reign.
No matter how cold this drink may be,
People are colder—that’s truth to me.
At least the chill that numbs my hand
Won’t judge or leave me where...

Soft and Sensitive Statuary
Time does not heal...
Time behaves like an executioner,
with the blade suspended,
waiting for the order to execute.
All eyes are on you.
Time doesn't know where it's going...
But it runs, stubborn and slow,
to some unknown
and definitely fatal place.
All eyes over you.
Time and birds
land on your shoulder
to leave memories
and a lot of shit.
Time, feathers and pain upon you.

Mysterious Box
Answers to the universe
Lie within this mystery
Once inside there's no reverse
The course of fates destiny
The smell of earthy pine
Has me fully intrigued
This mysterious box is mine
And I cannot critique
Allured by temptation
I can't wait to be inside
My resting place expectation
For the moment when I die
A home away from home
My peaceful eternity
A doorway into the unknown
Will I still exist internally
Questions to life's mystery
The answers will I find ...

Failing in life
Their cars were motionless
Their home was drab
Their intensity was addiction
They once tried going to rehab
They failed miserably
Handling it with no care
Their appearance was frightful
Entering their house was extremely rare
Their sex was frustrating
Both were failing
He was dry & she was limp
Their health was ailing
Reality was a nightmare
Death surrounds their vision
The Grim Reaper is watching
Motionless people can create a collision
Their home was drab
Their intensity was addiction
They once tried going to rehab
They failed miserably
Handling it with no care
Their appearance was frightful
Entering their house was extremely rare
Their sex was frustrating
Both were failing
He was dry & she was limp
Their health was ailing
Reality was a nightmare
Death surrounds their vision
The Grim Reaper is watching
Motionless people can create a collision

nowhere to go, he stays in his seat

The Doctor Said To
Something seems to be missing.
And it's not friends or kissing.
Sometimes you would feel like you are inside of your head.
Like you are not alive,but dead.
You wondered,what could be the cause?
For your emotions to take pause?
Maybe you were looking for a solution.
And you needed something.
You were going through the motions.
And developing new emotions,devotions.
So the doctor came and walked up to you.
He told me,take these pills,and you'll feel normal,too.
So take this pill,you'll feel much better. ...

happiness runs
and loneliness spins
minds explode
while ants march
into your head
teapots whistle
don't drink the orange tea
no light gets in
if you close the door too tight
and loneliness spins
minds explode
while ants march
into your head
teapots whistle
don't drink the orange tea
no light gets in
if you close the door too tight

Dying Alone
I've had a lot of friends in my life
But somehow I've lost them all
I've pissed it all away
Made people leave even while I loved them
Forced them to go with my behaviour
Or my words
Some things take an entire lifetime to finally regret
Now
In my dying days
When I should have all my friends around me
To laugh about all the old times
I'm alone
And simply weep for my own actions
And words
Living alone may be lonely
But just try dying that way
It'll break your fucking heart
But somehow I've lost them all
I've pissed it all away
Made people leave even while I loved them
Forced them to go with my behaviour
Or my words
Some things take an entire lifetime to finally regret
Now
In my dying days
When I should have all my friends around me
To laugh about all the old times
I'm alone
And simply weep for my own actions
And words
Living alone may be lonely
But just try dying that way
It'll break your fucking heart
