POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Any criticism is welcome (: If you read any of my poems, I thank you on for taking the time to do so
my love
Oh, how my feelings for you grew
oh, how they flew
rising so high, going farther than the sky
The way i felt for you, the feeling was all new
if only i knew what to do
I went every day with you on my mind
it was a slow kind of torture
my feelings feeding on me like vultures
picking and plucking away what was left of me
there wasn't anything i wouldn't have done for you
i would have given my sight, just so that you could see how i felt
i would have given my life, just so that you could live
but now i see that we were not meant to be
oh, how...

i would have given my life, just so that you could live
but now i see that we were not meant to be

"friend"
Just listen to my raps and snaps of the truth
Don't let me lie and make you ask why my mind is a pay booth
you of all people should know that it hurts to show everyone how i feel
after all, i trusted you to keep my secret, but doing so made me an idiot this is for real
Its pretty hard to deal with what is real cause haters like you wish they knew
exactly why it is that our dreams die, i see that don't you know, do you?
Oh yes, i seem to have cornered you in a mental chess, better think fast lest
i come back from the past, like a mental blast, this ain't no test...

confusion
Oh happy days, oh happy days
when we could all choose our own separate ways
but now we cant, for he looks over us
he took everything from us because he says
we are unworthy and sadly this is true
we are not worthy to bathe in his glory
unworthy we are to see his very shadow
the line between fantasy and reality is very thin
in his presence, all comes out from within
horrors become true, and dreams turn to nightmares
in this dreaded land of the dead
though at times i wonder, could all this be in my head?

demon
Please tell me you hear the voices
the sounds in the night
the little creatures just barely out of sight
shadows that follow your every movement
demons sent to send you soul to hell
oh please, do tell me that you see them
see their dark truths about all of our reality
how everything that we know to be true
is but a lie, one which we finally find when we die
but i have been cursed to see it all, to hear the truth,
all too soon, the reason for this i do not know
but i have decided to warn you
oh, how i envy you, able to sleep when all things are...

fly
Let the truth fly
let the truth fly
let the truth fly
let it touch the sky, oh so high
let it be free, in the open for all to see
Let it shine light on all the lies
Let it set the stage on fire
and let all the liers run for cover
oh let the truth fly
let it fly
let it fly
let it fly
Move the world unnoticed
strike when attention is unfocused on you
because with the truth out,
there will be no hiding for the denying
The truth will set you free
but we will see
who is constantly defying us
let the truth fly...

living memory
As i close my eyes
and embrace the dark
i see the day flash back
from the finish to the start
from when i awoke
to the very last word i spoke
and in all of this
i see how life is but a memory
we live in the present
but we only truly know the past
for nothing in this world ever lasts
and then i wonder, will we remember the end?

Dream
A shadow moving across the land
A being moving his deadly hand
Over the landscape
and no one can escape
his never ending furry
A light beyond the blackness of reality
a beacon in the night
Gathering storm in sight
a figure, a dark clad knight
Terror seizes the moment
and in an instant we are no more
for we are taken into the never more
and in this realm we find not monster
but ourselves
so what really happens when you sleep
and escape all of reality?
A being moving his deadly hand
Over the landscape
and no one can escape

A light beyond the blackness of reality

and in an instant we are no more
for we are taken into the never more
and in this realm we find not monster
but ourselves
so what really happens when you sleep
and escape all of reality?

real
Am i real?
i cant help but wonder, do i exist?
i see nothing but lies
i am but blind in this world.
what is real?
The very texture of my skin
feels as if it’s non-existent
it all drives me crazy
to the extent that i want to die
to end all the confusion
with the only truth i know
dead is to be dead
while living is to be in the unknown
i cant help but wonder, do i exist?
i see nothing but lies
i am but blind in this world.

Every time i see you
Every time i see you
fireworks fly inside my mind.
every time i see you
all seems possible.
every time is see you
i slowly realize
that without i am nothing
and when i see you
with my eyes now clear
i see my future before me
fireworks fly inside my mind.
every time i see you
all seems possible.
every time is see you
i slowly realize
that without i am nothing
and when i see you
with my eyes now clear
i see my future before me

swine
Pain falling down like the rain
Speeding across my body like a bullet train
Its seemingly, no definitely, caused by this sword
Called society, it mortally wounds me
Strikes me in the heart, and sears my mind
With a deathly kind of knowledge
To see our world with new eyes, to see it die
Makes disgusted at the swine of the world

possibilities
I see a sea of possibilities before me
sometimes the signs behind the sentence
whether they're new or old, hold a better truth than the one told
the theme may seem to be a illusive to some
but if you really listen, the message will be clear
if you really see, you will notice all the possibilities
but if you remain blind, you will fail to notice the truth
and if you remain deaf you will never hear the true message
all senses taken away
and you shall be nothing
for the deaf see more than you and I
and the blind hear everything
a sea of...
