POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
~Heart Of Glass~
Smiles and laughs
So much cheer
Can't hear the boy
Shedding yet another tear
Broken heart of glass
Shattered on the floor
No one seems to notice
The bloody crystal gore
She didn't mean to break it
But for broken glass, no cure
So he'll pick up the scattered pieces
And fake a smile, just for her
So much cheer
Can't hear the boy
Shedding yet another tear
Broken heart of glass
Shattered on the floor
No one seems to notice
The bloody crystal gore
She didn't mean to break it
But for broken glass, no cure
So he'll pick up the scattered pieces
And fake a smile, just for her

~The Beast~
Eyes like burning coals
A sharp-toothed beast
Feeding on broken hearts
It's prepared for a feast
Cutting fresh wrists
With claws like blades
Leaving scars behind
Through blood it wades
It takes without mercy
Tail like a noose
Stealing innocent lives
Turning demons loose
A sharp-toothed beast
Feeding on broken hearts
It's prepared for a feast
Cutting fresh wrists
With claws like blades
Leaving scars behind
Through blood it wades
It takes without mercy
Tail like a noose
Stealing innocent lives
Turning demons loose

~Thoughts In The Dark~
Sometimes at night
I'll stay awake
And think of all the
thoughts I can take
I think of you
I think of us
Things we lose
But things we must
I think of me
All by myself
My surely slipping
Mental health
I think of my brother
Six feet under
Who he'd be now
I'm left to wonder
I think of death quite a lot
And how long I've got to go
Through broken rose coloured lenses
I'm pretty sure I now know
I'll stay awake
And think of all the
thoughts I can take
I think of you
I think of us
Things we lose
But things we must
I think of me
All by myself
My surely slipping
Mental health
I think of my brother
Six feet under
Who he'd be now
I'm left to wonder
I think of death quite a lot
And how long I've got to go
Through broken rose coloured lenses
I'm pretty sure I now know

~In His Hands~
Timid little hands
Callused at the top
Holding his little heart
Careful it won't drop
Splits and cracks and cuts
Running through all the part
Held together by stitches
Like his little broken heart
Patchwork heart in hand
Depression became too real
So I'll hold his tiny heart
And give it time to heal
---------------------------
R.I.P Cali Carlisle, a great best friend.

~Addition To My Playlist~
There it is
Hit me like a train
Overwhelmed by this
Sickening sadness again
My heart starts to race
My hands start to shake
Been like this for too long
How much more can I take?
I might just hurl
My head is pounding
The fact that I'm still alive,
To me, that's astounding
I might be alive
Though my eyes are dim
My entirety seems dead
All is grey and grim
Leave me now
Hurry along
Give me nothing but a
Memory; and a sad, sad song
Hit me like a train
Overwhelmed by this
Sickening sadness again
My heart starts to race
My hands start to shake
Been like this for too long
How much more can I take?
I might just hurl
My head is pounding
The fact that I'm still alive,
To me, that's astounding
I might be alive
Though my eyes are dim
My entirety seems dead
All is grey and grim
Leave me now
Hurry along
Give me nothing but a
Memory; and a sad, sad song

~When I Think Of You~
It's amazing that
Through all these weeks
I still think of you,
Feelings turned antique
Thought I saved you
From your mind
In the end, you
Left me behind
A memory thought of
When days turn cold
That's all I'll be
When your heart unfolds
December was grey
As New York snow
I'll tell the tale
Of my heart's woe
Stuck in my mind
Stuck my heart
All you've done
Is tear me apart
Through all these weeks
I still think of you,
Feelings turned antique
Thought I saved you
From your mind
In the end, you
Left me behind
A memory thought of
When days turn cold
That's all I'll be
When your heart unfolds
December was grey
As New York snow
I'll tell the tale
Of my heart's woe
Stuck in my mind
Stuck my heart
All you've done
Is tear me apart

~Tribute To Walt~
I once knew a man
Who wore a grey suit
He had a stunning smile
And wonderful eyes to boot
His best friend was a mouse
He loved to draw
His characters left all
the children in awe
On his way to the pearly gates
He told me then
"Chin up; someday,
there will be happiness again."

~Smile~
Ask me what's wrong
I'll plaster on a grin
Nothing is right
Where would I begin?
Push me to tell
I'll simply smile
Even if you beg me
To talk for a while
You ask how I look happy
While in so much pain
Today's my last day
I'm going home again
I'll plaster on a grin
Nothing is right
Where would I begin?
Push me to tell
I'll simply smile
Even if you beg me
To talk for a while
You ask how I look happy
While in so much pain
Today's my last day
I'm going home again

~End Of The Line~
Stop looking for love
Just enjoy the pain
Quit searching for hope
There's nothing left to gain
You'll die alone
Soon, you'll see
I need someone
To save me from me
Life's only just begun
But we're almost to the end
This little heart is worthless
Too broken for you to mend
Just enjoy the pain
Quit searching for hope
There's nothing left to gain
You'll die alone
Soon, you'll see
I need someone
To save me from me
Life's only just begun
But we're almost to the end
This little heart is worthless
Too broken for you to mend

~The House On Wicked Lane~
This place is familiar
I've seen it before
In dark and twisted
Songs and folklore
Mysterious deaths
Children gone missing
How many years
Has this been on the listing?
Overgrown gardens
Great iron gates
Watching from inside
Something evil waits
Souls trapped inside
Screaming to me
Not for themselves
But for us to flee
A small boy stands
In the window upstairs
A warning sign
With his evil glare
Cover your eyes
Whisper quietly ...

~Candy Cali~
A monster when angered
A lover when loved
How else to describe you
But all of the above?
I loved you entirely
You didn't love me at all
Though when you needed me
I answered your call
I thought I could help you
Trade your whiskey for words
But you flew away
Like all the other birds
My heart still hurts
From the damage you've done
After all these months, I know
This battle can't be won.
So through all the pain
All the depression, and sorrow
I'll finally be free
Before this time...

~I Thought It Was Normal~
Is it odd to be the way that I am?
How am I even alive?
My past, is it not common?
To be normal, I always strive
You’ve never felt the pain
Of a parent’s death?
Having them say they hate you
With their last breath
Your friends have always stayed
Never left you to die
They’ve never left you alone
With a simple goodbye?
You’ve never lost everything
Love, Laughter, and Home?
I thought it was normal
Being alone to roam.
Because I have no mother
And I have little of a father
You say my...
