Poet Introduction
Dark, inexperienced, daring. My poems are born out of depression, stress, anger. Rarely of happiness, love, desire.

Mi Ultimo Adios
I write the words, the last I'll do.
t'il say all regardless their hue.
Mourning sunlight brightly arise.
Wave gloomy moonlight dire goodbyes.
Don't lie, don't lie, spare us both time.
Dare not pity sad drunk in wine.
Be sane, insane, matters no more.
You're gone, so I too shall, in gore.
repent, repent, you say to me.
Too late, its set, a shame to see.
Goodbye sweet land, my mother dear.
So too swift time, my father seer.
Pity me not, for this I will.
Since faults stacked high, as tall a hill.
Forget my name on ev'ry...
t'il say all regardless their hue.
Mourning sunlight brightly arise.
Wave gloomy moonlight dire goodbyes.
Don't lie, don't lie, spare us both time.
Dare not pity sad drunk in wine.
Be sane, insane, matters no more.
You're gone, so I too shall, in gore.
repent, repent, you say to me.
Too late, its set, a shame to see.
Goodbye sweet land, my mother dear.
So too swift time, my father seer.
Pity me not, for this I will.
Since faults stacked high, as tall a hill.

I Know Its Not Enough
I'm making this a song, so sorry if I made it as simple as it can be...
My hope is lost,
my will is gone.
Will this ever be over?
No nothing here,
brought all my gear.
Forget me for its all over...
I'm sorry girl,
I overreacted.
I'm just afraid
I'll lose you again.
And so I write,
so this song all for you,
forgive me girl for all I've done.
Not holding to
the past with you.
If you want lets just get it all over.
Though all the love,
I felt for you,
I'll keep them near though its all over.
...

Because Black and White Have Shades of Grey
A war unending, of truths and lies
of countless people, of traps and wires.
No soul believes me, the compromise
the truth in truth, surprise both sides.
For men of old, of faith so strong
prides keep flowing, they'll say "you're wrong."
The other too, will state the same,
"they're full of lies, they're those I blame."
In truth my dear, both sides are false
for truth should hinder, all darkened souls.
They'll state me wrong, behead me sure
their pride sundered, yet still impure.
The way I see, to set them free...
of countless people, of traps and wires.

The Blight
The Blight
I cried a loud jolly cry for all to hear
I'm not crazy though this is what you fear
I've killed the womb that held me long
and that who taught me to sing this song
I'll not dare share the details dear
for you might tremble because of fear
let us just say that heads did roll
made as trophies of flesh for fall
Yet you insist you want to learn
the art of death their corpses burn
A fire bright outshines the night
as they may say I am the blight
I cried a loud jolly cry for all to hear
I'm not crazy though this is what you fear
I've killed the womb that held me long
and that who taught me to sing this song
I'll not dare share the details dear
for you might tremble because of fear
let us just say that heads did roll
made as trophies of flesh for fall
Yet you insist you want to learn
the art of death their corpses burn
A fire bright outshines the night
as they may say I am the blight

The Snake
I've wondered long
on lands so vast,
slept countless summers
'til shadows cast,
a shadow filled
with souls mischief,
a sigil born
of man's own grief.
Since time eternal
he's been here,
creating troubles
forging beer,
and thus results
to that one sin,
that made all this...
we did not win.

To Those Of Age, Though Not A Sage
And so you've written crap and shared it' one and all,
the type that deaf men hear and pray they're deaf 'ven more.
The tears of blood that fill the floors once you will fall,
will gladden not just me, but too those lives washed off ashore.
The age you carry with you bears but numbers great and lone,
and nothing more, I say, for all I see a brainless mammal tall.
For wisdom comes not in days that pass 'til one is dust and bone,
but for every scar and blood that's shed 'til the day you'll fall.
I'll smite you down for all you're worth, even it be that...
the type that deaf men hear and pray they're deaf 'ven more.
The tears of blood that fill the floors once you will fall,
will gladden not just me, but too those lives washed off ashore.

and nothing more, I say, for all I see a brainless mammal tall.
For wisdom comes not in days that pass 'til one is dust and bone,
but for every scar and blood that's shed 'til the day you'll fall.
I'll smite you down for all you're worth, even it be that...

Age and Respect
Respect never did equate to age,
nor talent to that of wage.
All I say respect is earned,
not given for every second burned.
Alas to all who says they're old,
I warn you once so brave so bold.
I'd smite you down inflict much pain,
respect is earned by those whose sane.
I frown for though all this is true,
some ask respect 'ven beg did few.
Despise their kind my kin will do,
awake mankind show all their due.
Awake mankind all this is true,
all those worthy have died for you.
Reveal the truth unveil their hue,
let all...
nor talent to that of wage.
All I say respect is earned,
not given for every second burned.
Alas to all who says they're old,
I warn you once so brave so bold.
I'd smite you down inflict much pain,

The King of Everest
In the advent of destruction
I rise above the rest
In honor'nd satisfaction
of those who claim they're best
I'd laugh indeed I'll giggle
for falsely written wills
Intended for those whose fondle
enjoying all these mills
Erupting mountains fall down below
smite us all yet none will know
Engulfed in terror vivid in her eyes
forever lasting even now she dies
I'd roar like thunder mountains peak
these deaths don't matter not a bit
For so they die I sit atop on high
now winters comes I smile you weep
I rise above the rest
In honor'nd satisfaction
of those who claim they're best
I'd laugh indeed I'll giggle
for falsely written wills
Intended for those whose fondle
enjoying all these mills
Erupting mountains fall down below
smite us all yet none will know
Engulfed in terror vivid in her eyes
forever lasting even now she dies
I'd roar like thunder mountains peak
these deaths don't matter not a bit
For so they die I sit atop on high
now winters comes I smile you weep

I Write
I write not to say that I can write a multitude
of words so vast yet bare I say for good
I write for those who suffer greatly
for those who are treated just
in the eyes of the law
Then suddenly I realize
justice is blind for she sees not the cash inside
your pockets filled our eyes with lies that hinder
not our growth as man alone
but that of societies we all call home
Those on high they know all this
I cry before you just hear me weep
The truths I cry before this crowd
you'll say its lies and I a fraud
and so I point this gun...

Humanity Given, Humanity Lost
I've come a long way from darkness,
and yet upon reaching the peak of the mountain,
all I see is yet more of that I see below.
The people have spoken and they're in need,
the truth has long been hidden by those in greed,
resulting in blindness in light and dark.
I may be young and experienced less of what you did,
but hear this I say we're all same and equal,
we bleed the same blood and eat the same food.
Our only difference is that in light I have sided,
you have with the dark and have always been there,
fallen like Lucifer or even fallen way...

Zero Hour
It has begun, the start has come,
the never ending pounce of the drum.
The roar, the tune of the beat,
brace for impact hold on to your seat.
Horizons burn as forces march,
it blackens out the light of the Reich.
No voices heard this vict'rous day,
but noises, engines all over the fray.
Its gone, all lost, its come to this,
an empire great now gone to abyss.
Hence 'fore caught, he pinned himself down,
took his life out, the end of the town.
Hails were said, for vict'ry's won,
but shredded expenses never was fun.
Powers...
