American Born August 6, 1987 / ...Within the darkness we are faced with the one thing that truly scares us... / Ourselves.
Dusk brings the night, and nightmares Roars echo in the darkened sky And even the bravest hide in mortal terror Glaring at the darkness waiting On this night it may come for us all Now dawn's light reveals what the nightmare has taken Some say this dragon is a curse for living

Nst'Watl, The Night Dragon
I open that which I loved touching that which gives love removed that which grants breath ripped open that which housed my child pulled out that which grants nourishment threw away that which gets overlooked discarded that which passes it all carved out that which eggs are made I washed my hands of her leaving her life surrounding her on the floor now searching for a new soul to carve to deliver a new heartache

Jack of all Heartache
He waits at the end of the street I think the fog follows him He can smell her fear The street lights flicker and dim Those glowing red eyes, their prey did meet This night for her would prove grim At this hour of late he draws near Her screams gave him a gorgeous hymn She laid ripped apart, as her blood runs down his lips

The Demon Hiht'tahs
Her eyes are so beautiful, a shade of green I have never seen With a voice that could calm any broken heart After all these years I couldn't believe she still longs for me at night But now her beauty turned into something different She stood facing me, so close I could smell her perfume The look on her face... I smiled and told her how much I love her She pleads with me not to do this... She cries and begs... I leaned in to kiss her, those lips were always so soft... "Please, baby don't!, NO NO PLEASE NO!".... ...Click... She cries over my body.

Within Torment
So I wait for her... Wreaked with suffering and abandonment Tossed into this realm of discord Minutes seem like decades as time perverts      while I'm with her millenniums dissipate in seconds I love her so and yet she torments me with such precision      you would think she hates me for all I have done ...Revelation of reality... Does she love me, does she secretly despise me Will she cast me aside, cull me at every chance Have I wronged that which I seek to praise Within my twisted reality have I created this love from lust Have the demons in the dark corners finally gained the upper hand Can this be... No... I wont let you win this time But the questions still linger in my chaotic thoughts... So I wait for her... Wreaked with suffering and abandonment Tossed into this realm of discord

Fear and Wonder...
Like the rain, Like the snow, Like the leaves, Just as the millions before me, Just as the billions after me, I will surely fall.

History
I lay awake at night looking up into the darkness Flashes of our time together keep me dreaming Wondering if you too lay awake dreaming into the darkness Walking on that beach listening to the waves crash ashore The night air is cool, and the stars are bright From the darkness a light shines Walking toward me... it's you Your white gown flowing in the wind, the night air caressing your face I take you in my arms, I found you You look up at me with those beautiful brown eyes Saying the words that echo in the wind: "My love for you is everlasting." I hold you tight as the wind cries out and dies, the waves fall in silence You look up at me and whisper my name... I open my eyes to find myself alone Sitting up asking out loud" "Was it just a dream? Throwing the sheets back I freeze... I smile as I see the sand laying at my feet

was it just a dream...
We were thrown in this holding cell, spaced evenly apart I remember it being cold and damp, it was hard to move All I could see was a bright light above us, so bright almost blinding The haunting laughter of children echoed, bad things happened here once The cell shook and we could feel the entire room moving, the prisoners silent with fear With a crash the cell was still, the light was fading Now the light was gone, "whats going on?" a fellow inmate screamed We could feel heat raising from the floor we were trapped to, it steadily increased Some time passed and now the heat was getting unbearable, the smell of burning flesh was in the air Scream after scream my fellow inmates were over come by the heat and burned to death I knew this was the end, as my screams followed the countless others There was now silence as I lay on the very edge of my own end... When I felt the heat being taken form the chamber, and now i could feel the cell moving again The Familiar bright lights gave no peace, and just before my life gave out I heard a woman saying... "Okay kids cookies are done!"

Perspective.
You see that man there? He is one happy man. But don't let his smile distract you he shouldn't be here. Then why is he so happy you ask? I'll tell you. He sits there everyday, fishing... passing the time. You see before he came here he was sick, very sick. But he never gave up, he fought until he just couldn't fight anymore. And when his time came he faced the light without fear. At the service he family held, he came to see that which he left behind. For in that instance he was able to see his entire family and every friend he had ever made. But he did not cry, nor did he weep. He picked up his tackle box and grabbed his fishing rod then sat down on that boulder next to the water. And with a cast of his rod he just smiled... for now he knew he was home and one day they would be too. Now you see that man there? He is one happy man.

The Happy Fisherman
Down that path fear awaits... into that forest death awaits... crossing that line battles await... from the front line your duty awaits... that feeling within your destiny awaits...
