Trying to evolve as a writer. Watch me grow.
“I’m a horrible person” She said with a smile With a smile in her eyes In her eyes he could see He could see the truth The truth of her soul Her soul so darkly beautiful “You’re a horrible person” He said with a whisper With a whisper that carried That carried to the edge The edge of the world The world disintegrating Disintegrating her soul “You’re both horrible” Said the world with a cry With a cry from within From within came a fire A fire that burned That burned with passion With passion they died

Horrible
She wasn’t another outsider at all. My brief time with her Taught me how it felt not to be So desperately alone. She turned out to feel the same way. If I let myself, I could fall into the traps of letting them decide Who and what I am. The two of us were drawn well together. Lingering curiosity about what I had glimpsed In my dreams months before. The risk was terrible, Although I kept fantasizing I saw her My imagination was playing cruel tricks Now I’m stained with her blood In the shape of a cross.

Ever Night
The darkness, he called night And darkness was over the face of the earth Where are you? I was afraid. He said, “I will multiply your pain, Vengeance shall be taken.” All flesh died, The waters prevailed. The intention of man’s heart is evil. What is this you have done to me? Dreadful and great darkness fell upon him. But I cannot escape to the hills, Lest the disaster overtake me and I die. Let me escape and my life will be saved. Will you **** an innocent people? Bury your dead. Let your curse be on me.

Genesis
The fiery heat your touch gives off when our bodies meet. Never in my life did I think I’d find you. Sweet separation from the rest of the earth. I love you, I’ll say it again and again. When I stare into your eyes, I am content. Not a care is to be given About other men Since I found you My heart is made whole again. All I need is you and your touch Your body and soul is more than enough.

Love Note
Will I forever carry this sadness with me? Will it forever stream through my veins? Will the sadness die the day I die, Or will it continue on even then? I exhale the sadness And watch As it slowly makes its way back To be inhaled once more. It’s in my lungs It’s in my brain It’s in my heart It’s in my veins Creeping up from my fingertips Spiraling around my arms Melting into my skin After all this time (it’s been so long) it is now a part of me as death is a part of life and night is a part of day.

The Sadness
I could never forget Memories, here to stay The melody of our love Running through my veins Star crossed lovers, we’ve always been And so it will always stay Though I cannot have you, Your name has been written on my heart Engraved in immovable ink Forever here to stay You occupy my mind’s open spaces Every waking thought Ever present in my dreams Your love has touched my heart Made an unfading imprint in my life Though you may not be with me ever again Your light, your presence is here to stay

Here to Stay
You’ve seen me from the beginning You’ve been witness to the creation of a monster. I was born as a creature of the Night. I’d never laid eyes on light. Scarcely visible through the smoke, I wandered around looking for Hope. Hope, only a thing I’ve heard, never seen. Something I imagine could wash me clean. Rid me of my evil stains Cleanse me of my secret shame. Through the darkness, I saw the light It was so strange, so unknown So exquisite how the glimmer shone. Fear overcame my curious soul, But my thirst for knowledge Conquered the whole. I rushed to discover the glint of light Forgetting the cautiousness, Forgetting the fright. The sliver of light grew and grew Until no more darkness I knew.

Metamorphasis
When I look in the mirror, It’s not what you’d think. What I see is the Monster in me. The Monster in me, Waiting to come out. Screaming, “Set me free! Set me free!” You’ll never know when you look at me I’m trying to contain the beast. Rattle the cage, pick the lock, “Set me free! Set me free!” Not some kind of Jekyll and Hyde More than a masquerade. Happy on the outside, raging on the inside. Beating on the doors of my heart. Don’t anger me, I’ll set free The Monster in me. “Just let me out” “It won’t hurt” “Set me free! Set me free!”

Monster
The morning fog dissipates As it rolls from my mouth The skulls never say yes They try to sabotage my path Crashing trees inside of my head Echoes bouncing off the walls Voices drive me to trudge through the darkness Particles of light reflecting in the fog My only source of sight The voice of El Valiente guides me Would trusting be a good decision? El Valiente leads my soul Dancing to an unholy melody The deceptive truth sparks a revelation My heart’s on fire like a sparkler Fueled by a truthful lie When will I wake from this beautiful nightmare? Do I even desire consciousness? Do I love this, or do I fear? Unable to articulate dread, One sees no cause, Assumes no end. To avoid all manners of judgment, This is my belief.

The Brave
Welcome to my funeral. I dug my grave, Buried myself in you. I saw the caution signs Yet kept moving towards you. Ignoring the warnings Blinded by lust. I tried to drag you down Down into my casket. I tried to make you drown ‘Cause I knew we’d never outlast it, We’d never escape our fate. I saw the end from the start Never thought I could break my heart. All this was just a plan Simply a hoax To make you choke. Yet somewhere in this scheme I fell for you and left everything. It was only meant to be a pretense But the feelings I had for you grew so intense. I began to love you, despite these lies. There was so much trust inside of your eyes. I couldn’t stand to hurt you anymore Someone so amazing mustn’t be with such a ***** I went to rest inside of my coffin ‘Cause I saw my heart starting to soften. My ribs are crumbling Crushing my lungs, My lungs filling with dirt As I shovel to fill the hole. My chest is caving in Who knew it would be so hard to breathe So hard to breathe without you.
