In My Eyes
O twilight eyes, kiss the skies and dyes the waters red with your grace. Sweep the grounds and dash the air with your beauty. Burn bright the life in thine soul!

Welcome
I sit and wait on pins and needles while you take back all that “belongs” to you.
Nothing here fits your needs yet you still mercilessly take and take
Nothing quells the hunger called greed, nothing sates the desire called selfishness.
There’s no one who depends on you but you depend on all of us.
Emptiness you are and will always be, never better and always worse.
Forget...

O hollow shell, be your life so dark you would pierce the skies with hate?
Be thine eyes so deep they reflect the deepest pools of nothingness?
Hatred in your veins and loathing in thine skin, you erase the past good and write the pain of your future.
Struggle for mine pleasure and take what be owed, for your triumphs be naught.
What good come of your living? The sweetest nectar of lifeblood...
Oh beautiful world, what is the reason the grass withers beneath my feet?
What is that makes the trees whisper as I pass?
For what reason do the mountains quake as I stare?
Be I hollow? Doth my soul not weep at the shivering of Gaea? Be it my whisps of tears cause this planet to wain?
Tell me o mother earth! What crimes so heinous have I committed against thee! I shout to the heavens above and...

O wicked night casting dark shadows across the evening sea
Watchful eye, above the dew grown lands shine with your pale glow
Wrapped in the forever shadow the glow of noonday roses wither
Shepherds of flocks pray for the blessing of warmth, cries lost on the crashing blackened waves
Eternal shaded eyes of night owls ever watchful of the dawning of new beginnings
Whisper tales of golden eras...

Mine is the spirit that will never die,
Forever I will fight until peace is brought and justice served.
Never will the blood of innocents be spilled, for as long as I draw breath no suffering shall come to pass.
Breathe in the strength of life and let loose the fury of those in pain.
The cries of the persecuted will go answered as I rain steel and hammer vengeance down upon the tyranny that is...

The Tempest
Divide the sky with your light
Shatter the stars with your sound
Pound the ground with your power
The drizzle of life slowly eases into the cracks and gives way to new life
Trees sway in your tempestual gales
as you bring light to all in your path
Send the creatures of the night running as we all sit and gaze in awe
Nothing compares to the dozens of flashes and strikes of your might
The...
Storm
Let the falling rain wash everything away
Make the world new and soothe the soul
Quiet drops of life heal the world
While I stand and witness the rebirth of earth
With the passing of time, the thoughts of old slowly fade
Longing for a touch to share it with
Oh rainy days clean the shade of mortality
Return the harvest and reap the fruits of promise
This poets soul rests with the fountain...
Taste the sweet lies of the temptress
Drain the goblet and drink deep the nectar of the filth
Cradle the deception, look away from the truth
Waft the stench of demise and deny the thirst for truth
Sweet lips of the untruth, take away the hunger for the light. Leave only the dry craving of deceit
Never wanting the pain of reality, she forever will offer the death of falsehood
Obvious this may...

Imagine you took back the world
In the palm of your had rested the innocents
Look into the sun and bestow life to the cold
Begin the march of triumph and behold the shouts of glory
Forever the days of happiness
Forever the happiness of everyone
Proclaim the freedom of the people
Shouts of the days to come
Live for the days of tomorrow
Breathe the air of redemption
Drink from the fruits...
My Song
There are things in life we know
And this world it takes it’s toll
The yellow sun and the children run while the laughter lifts our souls
The sweet bells that ring
And the lovely birds that sing
Fill our eyes like golden moons beyond the ebb of the sea
When our lives come to end
And we come to take our stand
I’ll remember you
And the life we knew
While our flowers bloom...
Sunday
Don’t wake me when the sun comes up, just leave me where I lie. I’ll die when the time comes, I’ll rush it when I like. Let the moon rise over my grave, let me listen when the crow sings. Don’t hand me something I can’t reach, I’ll get it when I please. I won’t apologize for leaving, I’ll tell you I’m weary. I won’t apologize for going, I...
When you fall and no one’s around, do you make a sound? Does anyone hear you? Does anyone see you? Ask yourself “who cares that I’m here?” Step back and look around before you take that leap that isn’t of faith. Be aware that when you drown no one will be there to save you, chance and it’s all you have. Don’t slow down to reload, don’t step back and...
Fear, the apparition that cloaks me like the cowl of death. Unadorned by beauty’s grace, however, blessed with homely disgrace. Empty trees sway in the breeze while liars hang lifelessly beguiled by the silence of the righteous. Pious and fake, souls dance through fire and flame, light and fame. Seeking everything but truth the spiral of hate fights through. Dam the oppressive nature and...
Whether or not you read my words is the determining factor in how much I care
If you pick it up and decide to put it down I’ll walk right on by and shake my head while you judge the cover instead of getting to know the name
Grab it and give it a read, something could click and change the way your world works
Let it digest as you think about the meanings and absorb the sequencing
Life...
Apple of my eye, jewel of the nile
Touched by the grace of life yet hidden from the truth of the world
Fallen from the tree of gaea, lost to the touch of humanity
I long for the embrace of your arms, the beat of your heart against mine
Endlessly and tirelessly I search for a way to bring you back
To end this long life of enmity, fruitlessly giving my all
Oh soul of mine end the restless...
Welcome The Darkness
Inspired by Vampire Diaries,
Porcelain tears fall from the eyes of innocents
Regret taints the hearts of men
Fearful, children wander streets filled with the pains of many
For too long have young ones suffered the hand of deceit
Driven by hunger and the satisfaction of false triumph, the unkind thrive
Rest not the fruits of the wicked, for much work there is to be done
Go now and spread...
Pain darkens the skies with no hope of a future
Dull blades hack apart life, the way we used to know and how we think today
Time marches forward with no remorse, falling to keep up and stumbling to learn
A cloud of ignorance follows the masses like a cancer, without cure, with promise
Purpose eludes the young while greed covers the masses, forever growing shamelessly the hand of death traces...
Anguish
Unchecked rage boils over into the sea of violence
Suffer for the ones that lie in my wake, pray for the ones at my feet sleep
Pray not the path of vengeance come near you, beware the stalking view
Benevolent faith protect those from the hammer of war, fallen those who stand at deaths door
Be gone from me the terrified innocence, stand before me the ignorant masses
At my hands bleed the mercy...

Rebuttal
So you sit me here and tell me that I’ll never be anything
You have me here to tell me that because I have nothing to show for being alive that I’m a failure
You’ve brought me here to show the suits and cars and big bank account that I’ll never have according to you
That’s fine, in fact…
I bust my ass to be where I am now
I got here of my own volition...
Ending
Forfeit your mind to the sickle that leaves you blind
Engraved is the memory of her dying eyes and paling lips
Suffer for the words last spoken, never afraid, never lost
Most wanted the touch of her embrace
Lying frozen in the chilled depths of nowhere, forever sleep the sleep of sadness
Forever lost the days of good, touch the days of new
Nothing as you knew, nothing you will know
Ended is...
Fortresses of hearts break under the strain of four letter words
Hate, love, pain, and hope the ammunition for enemies of trust
Allies of sin march against the plains of happiness and wither the ground at the touch with the scent of agony
All hope lost, all foes march on
Glimmers of fate drop the faithful to knee, sinners of hate continue on the path of pain
Lord stand with the mighty and...
Effervescent tears fall and shatter behind the glow of broken glasses
Moonlight shines brightly as ravens sing out into the light of the coming day
Beneath the boughs of weeping willows pray the souls of the faithful, waiting for the time of the righteous take flight
Whispering winds speak riddles to otherworldly travelers, guides and company they keep
Unbeknownst to most, the world spins on...
Memories of days gone by, the thoughts we shared and the words we spoke
Hopes of life and love, and dreams of freedom
The roads we’ve taken and lives we’ve led, inescapable divergence in paths chosen
Threads of fate interwoven, the unforgettable ties
Though we stray and lose our way, always know we’ll meet again someday
Someday

Freedom
I hear the howl of wolves and wails of the fallen echo through time
Vanishing pain and empty words of pity fall from the lips of the “sympathetic”
Unable to feel the pain or experience the loss of the victims they march on.
Fake smiles and cold hands wave as the dying fight on
Continue telling lies and promising falseness while we toil in your world claiming what’s ours...
The skies are alight with the fires of many and hell hath no fury like the souls of the damned
Around the deads light I turn, to face away from this horrible world
Defiant in the face of the truth, the dark in me feeds me no proof
Lions bear in the face of enemies lie, time once again sweeps by
Haunted and hunted my soul sleeps, with no voice of its own to keep.
The fear in me steadily...
