POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Be Still
Somber grief within my chest
Be still, be still,
In agony I writhe without rest
Sleepless beneath the starlit sky,
Midst my anguish both day and night
To be rid of all sorrows, and feel no more pain
Oh grim reaper I plead,
Reave this heart, that so constantly aches,
End these thoughts that drive me insane
Lay to rest this weary soul,
Into your embrace, I let go
Beneath the pale moonlight’s glow
Be still, be still,
In agony I writhe without rest
Sleepless beneath the starlit sky,
Midst my anguish both day and night
To be rid of all sorrows, and feel no more pain
Oh grim reaper I plead,
Reave this heart, that so constantly aches,
End these thoughts that drive me insane
Lay to rest this weary soul,
Into your embrace, I let go
Beneath the pale moonlight’s glow

Tomb
Oh night sky riddled with stars,
Upon thee often I have pondered,
Eyes closed I wished with all my heart
In hopes and faith, I had given my all
To no avail, my efforts did fall
Time well wasted,
In ominous darkness I've waited
Agony a plenty, earnest in my gloom
Accustomed to the darkness, I lie within my tomb
Barren and hollow beneath the sea of stars,
Still beneath the soil, coveted in the dark
Upon thee often I have pondered,
Eyes closed I wished with all my heart
In hopes and faith, I had given my all
To no avail, my efforts did fall
Time well wasted,
In ominous darkness I've waited
Agony a plenty, earnest in my gloom
Accustomed to the darkness, I lie within my tomb
Barren and hollow beneath the sea of stars,
Still beneath the soil, coveted in the dark

Sweet Sanity

Sweet Sanity
I’m at an all time low,
Nothing in this world makes sense anymore
Cannot bear this burden any longer,
It’s much worse than before
Nothing can save me,
This darkness has enslaved me
No more shall I try to resist,
Sit back, relax, allowing insidious to acts persist
Blackened poison courses through my heart and veins,
Demolishing and Dissolving all of my insides away
Scattered blood falls around like summer rain
Surrender to the tempting sensuous pain
As it sweeps me up off my feet,
And...

Nothing.
11-5-12
Nothing
Nothing is so crystal clear,
Right before my very eyes,
I watch it all just disappear
Indulge in the pain just to feel
Alive on the surface,
Inside I’m decaying, Irrelevant being without purpose
A diagnosis, terminal darkness
Ready to burn, and fall into pieces
Death whispers to me,
‘The answer is near if you seek it’
Lovely death, my soul is yours for the keeping
I have died so long ago, this heart is no longer beating
Malicious memories of what will never be
Crimson incisions tear away at my...

Remedy

Remedy
No matter where I go, no matter whom I am with
You are all I think about, the only thing that still makes sense
I’m falling further and faster now, Sinking oh so quick
Onward bound upon this one way trip, far too late now to abandon ship
My mind grows ever blurry, my heart continues to race, these eyes no longer see
Beyond exhaustion, I just do not give a shit
I've tried my very best, gave it my all
Never made a difference, never meant a thing or mattered at all
Drained of life,...

Requiem Eternam
10-25-12
Requiem Eternam
We danced with the devil
And watched time move so slow
In a world far away, a world of our own
Surrounded in the shadows, but so alone
Beating hearts and glazed eyes
Two souls beneath the endless night
Fading into madness, falling to their demise
Held me tight, and placed your hand in mine
Together we drowned in the darkness -----
Two lost souls Evermore entwined.

Humble Death
Trying a new approach to the way that I write...here goes...
I grasp tight life’s fragile thread,
With grin painted upon this pale face in content,
Aware that in a mere moment it will all come to an end.
I hold hope no more. I fear not death.
I embrace the darkness within.
Slowly release my grip my fingertips dance,
While I sink and slip.
Fading from the horizon of life,
All I have ever wanted was just this…

Stop making excuses, your lies are so useless
Your facade is so played out, it's really obnoxious
Your words mean nothing, your efforts are pointless
It's too late now, there's nothing at all that you can do
I'm leaving this time for good.
You've had so many chances, that you chose not to use.
Don't act so surprised, too many times I have forgiven you.
I'll admit that it hurts to say goodbye, I never dreamed or wished to leave your side
You made the choice to push me aside
All the shit you've put me through, ...

Rightful Place
No need to raise your voice my dear,
No need to scream and shout
We’ve been down this road so many times before,
It’s been a hell bound ride without any doubt
You tell me to leave, then beg me to stay
Oh baby you’re wearing me out
I’m so tired of fighting, and
I’m through with letting you bring me down
It’s too little, too late; I’m over your games
Too much precious time on you went to waste
Far too long I let you get the best of me,
But babe that’s all about to change
This time I’ll...

Into Thin Air

Into Thin Air
Dissolving into a sea of tears,
Stricken down by my worst nightmares and fears,
That have transcended into my reality
Reckless morbid thoughts come to me casually
Sweet dreams of death infatuate me
Living has become my great demise
Lying to myself, persistently asking why am I even alive
Nothing here can ease the aches, or bring me happiness
I’ve tried to ease my pain; I’ve tried to erase it from my mind,
Pretend it’s not there. Trying to forget, pretending I don’t fucking care
But...

Infliction
*Work in Progress**
A tale of an unfortunate and terrible life,
lonely and cold evermore, with no one by my side.
Seeking out distractions just to ease my exhausted mind.
Giving into my weaknesses, just to pass meaningless time
Though the pain never heals, and i just wish to die.
Every moment seems to stand still,
I find myself counting each moment as it painfully passes by.
Nothing left to push me forward, no will to try.
broken wings aren't meant to fly.
Broken pieces of mistakes are all that remain.
Useless...

Oh Well
* WORK in PROGRESS**
No hope. No purpose. A hopeless miserable fuck
Irrelevant. I never really was much
A giant mistake. It's time to just give up
Nothing to strive for, shit out of luck
So to no surprise I'll cease to exist,
No one will cry, I will not be missed...
