Music and poetry are a few of my passions, along with reading of course, but I am only an amateur so do not expect anything brilliant presented. I take passion from emotion and stories from my past when I write, I hope you enjoy.
I can’t eat, I can’t think and I don’t want to breathe anymore All I can feel is the gaping hole in my chest I don't care for your apologies what’s done is done Nothing you can say can take away the pain that I feel I should have never allowed myself to be so vulnerable I can feel myself breaking down The need to destroy everything I own Destruction is the only thing I rightfully know in this cruel world Nothing feels right or worth my purposeless time What is the point in this unfulfilling life? I am useless, worthless and alone Not even the one person in this world that I thought loved me does I can’t escape this feeling, I have tried for many days Yet my tears still fill every second of my waking moments My life is a sodden mess and I don’t want to live without you I don’t even want to imagine a future that you’re not in You promised me everything but now you’re gone You were my constant the only one that I truly loved You were my one, the one but that’s over now I don’t think I can ever love again I don’t want to ever love again You broke me I am nothing but an empty shell A whisper to deaf ears I bet you can't even see me now I am nothing Literally nothing I was wrong I need you But you don't need me

I'm Nothing Without You
When paranoia takes its course I don't know whether to stay or run but how can you run from your own mind? I try to escape from its grip but it's dragging me in and consuming me. I can hardly breathe. I can't move yet everything is racing around me, like a vortex, the darkness beckoning my soul. I feel my heart beating and the sweat on my skin yet nothing can draw me from this paralytic state of fear. I know it's not real. I know nothing will happen but the trepidation is the contortionist of my mind, I'm no longer in control and here I must face my inner demons.

My Inner Demons
Words are like scales And armour to our heart Yet words so easily tainted Can tear us apart But many wear them as protection Unaware of their fragility A simply slip of consciousness Consequences of drastic ability No words can keep a secret Others can create a mask We all try to hide our pain There is really no point to ask Words can provide a meaning They can also prove a lie But most of all they can tell the truth Even if one doesn’t comply For words have more than one meaning Symbolic and ever so freed It is the emotion and tone of the person That makes them easy to read However, these words neither spoken We all know them to be true And it is this understanding That I present onto you

Words of Honesty
Ive heard it said a thousand times Out of sight, out of mind All too often I come to find That in my heart it still subsides I guess it don't apply to mine Heavens know how hard Ive tried a way to hide it deep inside Though cast aside from prying eyes I can not bury, no demise Some things cant be undermined

Lingering Sentiment
I feel your heart in my chest Your Breath on my cheek Wish for our bodies entwined Our lips dare not speak The touch of your hair Your lips cold as ice The scars on your skin Only lead to entice Our spirit and soul United as one The taste of your body The sweetest scent on my tongue You stand before me A portrait of art So bold and beautiful The key to my heart The grip of you hands Holding me close So tender and gentle What I need most To stay forever Locked in your arms Safe and at home Protected from harm Yet I was a fool Now you must leave Seperating our hearts Never shall I believe We commited a crime No betrayal to our love You shattered the silence The blood splattered dove Now you must run The hounds to escape To flee from the court Sheltered by my own cape The hunt is persued You still race ahead You will pay for our sins As the floors painted red The gun shot is fired I collapse on the floor I gave you my heart And am forever no more

Mine to Give but Yours to Destroy
Time can never be wasted on a good man A man with a heart as pure as love Even when the darkness surrounded him And a ghostly whisper of silence Echoed through our thoughts A flower would bloom on the very same day Keeping the darkness and pain at bay If only you have seen him then So joyful, happy and bold It was as if the sun itself nurtured him Not only the seeds he had sewn He was the life and soul of the garden A beauty and sight to behold But at the plants shred their leaves So should he as the days and nights become cold Every flower has it's poison A nector so sinister yet sweet He was no exception to the rule A bottle of whiskey lay at his feet I wish we could have seen a forwarning Signs that would of led us to help But he was always so very stubborn Trying his hardest to keep us out A petal itself is fragile and delicate As fragile and delicate as we A simple rip in the time line And we all would never be He was aware of this burden But he faced it without fear He was strong to the very end For only the living shred a tear

How the Flowers Weep
Although you now have past and your physical form no longer remains we know that your life and soul will go on in the Holly hocks that bloomed on that day. We love you and always will and when we look upon the Holly Hocks all the memories we have will be of you.

Garden of Remberance
You'll never see souls Spray painted with pink You'll never know stereotypes Or make judgments, too quick You'll watch how each soul floats With a grace of their own And the presence of everyone Will always be known Because if we were all just souls Floating around, all alone With no bodies to define The beauty that's shown. Everyone would be beautiful In their own magnificent way And tomorrow would always Be a beautiful day.

Of bodies and souls
Never what you wanted Always in the way Your words so haunted By abuse and pain Tainted with knives The scars still stain Weak and rejected Limpness of a soul Demolished and confused Torture so cruel Like a light in a fire You spread through my heart You created a monster One forever dark Determination through hate No one more to despise These demons eyes No comprimise Now it shall be done Nothing left to be said I'll paint your life red

Revenged Torment
Never once could one begin To comprehend The mass of emotion and depth That we are to swim Yet we are trapped with no escape Left to the fate of falling Into a void in the timeline Of an ever spinning whirlpool The surface no longer in sight Leaves the waves crashing over head As our bodies struggle to cope with the fight That is tearing us apart We pray from the bottom of our hearts That we can make it, one day We will open our eyes and see the shore on the horizen But that day seems far from our gaze And as we are stunned and afraid We fall further into the Ocean
