POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm not a poet. Poets can smell color and taste seasons. Poets can make vomit sound beautiful. I just write and hope it comes out well. :)

Slow Suicide
The suffocating grasp of your claws has
made my spirit too numb to feel the
persecuting heartache the
torturing turmoil and
conflicting sorrow of
all my failures
The ferocious slashing of your teeth has
made my skin too thick to feel the
blistering anguish the
flaming grief and
blazing torment of
all my disappointments
The poisonous howl of your rage has
made my ears too deaf to hear the
degrading screeching the
sickening...

Fiery Pit
Infected by psychosis
entreating for the stairs to descend
to usher me from this brutality
that dwells upon my blemished soul
Nothing but frantic rage lives
among all the forever stained
Desperate screams of repentance
echo in my head clouding my thoughts
Cover me
Make me a shield from the fiery brimstone
Give me just one drop
For the water here is hard to drink
Kill the worms
that feast upon my heart
continually prying through my skin
For I am punished with the heart of a beast
Give me another chance

I Would Take It Back...
I Would Take It Back...
I can't believe we had A N O T H E R fight
I don't know how we'll ever make this right
We say mean things to each other in spite
I dread coming home to your screams tonight
Slowly pulling in my driveway is when
An eerie feeling comes across my skin
Chills creep up my spine quivering my chin
Something feels wrong from very deep within
Walking to my door, I tremble with the key
I am late, will I get the third degree
Something inside is telling me to flee
What I will find there is no guarantee ...

Stronger
How did I get to this lonely place
Am I that much of a homely disgrace
I sit around here so fucking pathetic
Pointlessly waiting for you to be apologetic
Why bother trying to fool me with your lies
Your trickery brings me to so many cries
Why do I care, I already said it was over
I need to let you go so I can finally get some closure
Thank you for fucking up yet again
Reminding me my choice is not made in vane
I am no longer confused on my decision
I now own hind sight's 20/20 vision
All these years I thought I needed to change...

The Monster Within
My name is Jealousy
My eye's are of green
My skin's dull as darkest sky
My voice a constant scream
My heart will deafen like thunder
My hair hangs like clouds of black
My arms wrap fiercer than the winds
My legs give no sign of attack
My body is a tornado
My mind has great force
My fingers will burn you to the ground
My soul will have no remorse
My eye's are of green
My skin's dull as darkest sky
My voice a constant scream
My heart will deafen like thunder
My hair hangs like clouds of black
My arms wrap fiercer than the winds
My legs give no sign of attack
My body is a tornado
My mind has great force
My fingers will burn you to the ground
My soul will have no remorse

Shattered
Shattered.
An hourglass vase
Dropped by his hands
Left behind, abandoned
Crystal strands
Shattered.
On goers look
Disgust they conceal
No longer beautiful
No more appeal
Shattered.
Few tried to piece
Shredded skin they drew
Not wanted again
Fragments they threw
Shattered
man stops
Carefully he glues
Part of it's missing
The heart he pursues
Shattered
man seeks
In hands of past
To find the essence
No one's unasked ...

Alone I Die
I am lying alone
I am about to die
No one is near
No one will cry
I have my regrets
I have such sorrow
No more my life
No more tomorrow
I loved you hard
I loved them deep
I wasn't enough
I wasn't to keep
About to be gone
About to decease
No chance for sorry
No chance for peace
I will die alone
I will not embrace
Your wonderful arms
Your wonderful face
You broke me down
You broke my heart
Alone I survived
Alone I depart
I am about to die
No one is near
No one will cry
I have my regrets
I have such sorrow
No more my life
No more tomorrow
I loved you hard
I loved them deep
I wasn't enough
I wasn't to keep
About to be gone
About to decease
No chance for sorry
No chance for peace
I will die alone
I will not embrace
Your wonderful arms
Your wonderful face
You broke me down
You broke my heart
Alone I survived
Alone I depart

Little Bo-Peep
Little Bo-Peep, has lost her life
No one was there to save her
She sliced her wrists with a knife
Then everything became a blur
Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep
Her last thoughts of all the meetings
She never awoke, she cut too deep
No longer apart of the beatings
When she took her very last breath
She knew the place she was headed
Even to Hell and forever in death
Had no measure to the man she dreaded
Beatings and rapings, Bo-Peep would just lay
Never was he to see her cry
She only had thoughts of how she...

Mr. Columbian
Oh how I love to turn you on first thing in the morning
The mere thought of you gets to me without any warning
Your beautiful ebony color is alluring
Your delectable smell, so reassuring
I can't wait for the moment that you slip between my lips
You do your job well, without any tips
As I suck you in, I feel so alive
This is the only way that I thrive
You have a way of making me go for hours
Like you have some kind of super powers
The taste of you for me is desired
Twice a day or more is required
When I swallow, your...
