POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
only in a dream
laying back sinking into the pillows
my head drifts away
to the last place I felt alive
under the shade of the tree
crushing clover leafs
staring up at clouds
from another day
I smile to find us
hand in hand side by side
the blue of his eyes
could put the sky to shame
watching it all go by
together were in tune
all the while just
thinking out loud
i cant stay much longer
slowly i feel him fading
saying our last i love yous
he leans in to kiss me awake
my room comes back to view
reality always tore us...

for always
over dosing on heart ache
your memories are more
then I can take
words buried so deep
Infected and inflamed
wish you were stil here
to keep me sane
I tried so hard but
lost you all the same
how could it be that
after all this time
it hurts so much inside
I truly did love you
always have always will
your memories are more
then I can take
words buried so deep
Infected and inflamed
wish you were stil here
to keep me sane
I tried so hard but
lost you all the same
how could it be that
after all this time
it hurts so much inside
I truly did love you
always have always will

key
everything stays the same
the days go by in a daze
always tired but ever restless
I feel like im in a cage
with sun rotted wings
the birds are mocking me
cant seem to find my key
no one here sees just
how much this is killing me
dreaming is my only relief
I just dont get enough sleep
the days go by in a daze
always tired but ever restless
I feel like im in a cage
with sun rotted wings
the birds are mocking me
cant seem to find my key
no one here sees just
how much this is killing me
dreaming is my only relief
I just dont get enough sleep

dead forest
it never stops snowing
frozen high above in my tree
the crows have picked out my eyes
moths have left maggots in my flesh
but I dare not climb down
the dead ones are roaming around
I smell them with there hunger
to rip apart what ever
scraps you have left and use
the parts to keep them selfs in check
there is no sleep or death
just left alone to my thoughts
and the endlessly recycled rot
wish i could wake up
frozen high above in my tree
the crows have picked out my eyes
moths have left maggots in my flesh
but I dare not climb down
the dead ones are roaming around
I smell them with there hunger
to rip apart what ever
scraps you have left and use
the parts to keep them selfs in check
there is no sleep or death
just left alone to my thoughts
and the endlessly recycled rot
wish i could wake up

spin
its all sounds the same
no new words to say
Just spinning around
watching the same colors blur
into the stale gray that eats away
never ending and unchanging
so sick but it wont stop
puked on my shoes
Im done I want off this ride
wish I could go to the other side
but its proly just the same
as this game you just cant win
there I go again repeating
the words iv said so many times
spinning around and around
wish I could just black out
no new words to say
Just spinning around
watching the same colors blur
into the stale gray that eats away
never ending and unchanging
so sick but it wont stop
puked on my shoes
Im done I want off this ride
wish I could go to the other side
but its proly just the same
as this game you just cant win
there I go again repeating
the words iv said so many times
spinning around and around
wish I could just black out

every living thing dies alone
failed nothing to show
just a broken soul
so you cover it all in lies
cuz you dont want to face whats inside
even though its eating you alive
decay wont heal in time
somehow your stil alive
its all sliping away
but the mind wont let go
just want to be left alone
but someones always going to pry
in the end theres going
to be no one you cared
about by your side
just roting in the pit
you dug for yourself
just a broken soul
so you cover it all in lies
cuz you dont want to face whats inside
even though its eating you alive
decay wont heal in time
somehow your stil alive
its all sliping away
but the mind wont let go
just want to be left alone
but someones always going to pry
in the end theres going
to be no one you cared
about by your side
just roting in the pit
you dug for yourself

hes out having fun
im stuck at home
with our mistake
I love with all my heart
he never knows the
right things to say
to make me feel ok
he wont get a job
but he smokes pot
think he cheats a lot
but il never know
thats how it goes
he says he loves me
but deep down im
pretty sure I hate him
they say I could do better
but im a loser with responsibilities
Stuck at home with no self esteem
thats just the reality of things
im stuck at home

I love with all my heart

disfiguration
lifes dragging me down
and deaths looming above
and im stuck somewhere
in between the two
always making the wrong move
but thats ok if im doomed
cuz iv still got things to do
cuts to make scares to break
the mind comes and goes
demons in my dreams
on the fast lane to self destruction
when I crash dont pick up the peices
let me sleep in my disfiguration
I love the mutilation
it keeps me sane at night
cuz things wont be alright
dont lie im just
alone for the ride
when I die just let me rot
dont give it...

nightmare part 2.
i awoke pretty cut up
he had strung me up against
the broken glass with bobbed wire
I saw hundreds of images of my self
a puddle of my own blood beneath me
looked up the ceiling mirror it wasnt broken
what part of hell is this?
I saw the man in the mirror appear
Tall ,pale ,white glazed eyes and razor sharp teeth
he ran his fingers up each of the corners of my mouth
suddenly my face split
I felt needle and thread
stitch my lips back together again
theres no need to ever scream he said
thrusting a blade into stomach cutting down...

nightmare
another night im up to late
sitting under my black light
lonely and tired yet restless
I turn on the music to drowned out
the thoughts in my head
feeling low so i sink to the floor
all the pills are kicking in
I close my eyes exhale let it all slip away
a tap on my shoulder I open my eyes
to find shadows floating all around
lost in there melancholy dance
one takes me by the hand
spinning me upward and around
the room slowly begins to blur
look down my bodys on the floor
I know im dieing but im smiling
the shadows...

over thinking
just walking around
in another dead day
going nowhere
surrounded by many
but still lonely
I dont feel real
just constantly
over thinking
I hate what I am
and hate what im not
wish I was lost
cuz I cant keep
a stable thought
all repeated words
that no one reads
this is pointless
