I've never thought of myself as a writer. I'm a musician you see; a vocalist to be exact. The arts, in every aspect, have always intrigued so it's only natural that I tried my hand at writing. Poetry has been a way for me to express myself and pour out my feels. This year has been the first that I've felt comfortable with publicizing my poems so when I found this site I thought "Why not?!" ;D Hope you like them!
Fire coursing through my veins
Burning lava
Eyes a blaze
Bringing to light the dark shadows
You
I see you
For what you are
You can't hide from the fire
Shinning a light on your actions
The inferno of penance will come
Ensnaring the guilty
It will come
Soon
Though you will be engulfed
I will arise
Like the phoenix
From the ashes of destruction
Triumphant.

Too much.
Waste of space.
Missing the smile.
Have to get away.
Just a nuisance.
Consern and confusion.
Sweet release.
Good riddance.
Heartbreak and loss.

Right there.
You sat right there.
Across for me.
Just like at home.
But wrong.
All wrong.
...please...
One phrase.
You said one phrase,
That's all it took,
To break my heart.
How could you?
To me?
...please...
Tell me when.
You must tell me when.
When will I you want me?
Please open your eyes!
See me.
Hear me.
...please...
Betrayed.
You were the one,
The one I looked up to,
But I'm nothing to you.
You leave.
I can't.

Your eyes,
The diary to your mind of which I have the key.
I need not read.
Your smile,
Full of warmth and love but you're hurting.
I feel it too.
Your scent,
Sweet and familiar you bring me in closer.
I savor the aroma.
Your taste,
Pressing your lips to mine for a brief moment.
I cherish it.
Your thoughts,
Endless and extravagant, you share them all.
But only to me.
Our bond,
Thought of as a myth but we know better.
We are soul mates.

Help me feel again.
Teach me to breathe in sound,
To touch fragrance,
To hear color unknown by all.
Guide me along,
Out past the universe,
And show me God's face.
If only for a moment,
Let that moment be true.
Until the loneliness sets in
And winter consumes me.
May the mere memory
Bring out the sun
And wash over my face,
So I may taste its rays.

Once again
My life is shattered
And I imagine
Its you that's near me.
To dry my tears,
To give me hope,
To show me love.
Yet it's not you beside me.
So let the tears fall,
The hope die,
And the love
Be forgotten.

A girl
Once vibrant
And full of joy.
Now lifeless and
Engulfed in sorrow.
No reason to live
Yet afraid of death.
He has taken her will
He has broken her
Poison.
That's what he called her.
The words eat away
Like poison.
The poison
He made her out to be
Thus condemning her.
