My sweat
My tears
My blood
My anger
My love
My desire
My roots
My future

You set me free..

Follow

Follow him down
Don't breathe it in
Knock knock (let me in)
Don't let him in

His words are tainted
With poison
Don't let me drink it
Follow him down
He's knocking on my door

I'm the scared kid
Lying naked on the floor
Knock knock (let me in)
Trying to fight it all
Don't let him in

Univited.
Unneeded.

His shadows are lingering
In the cracks of my mind
Follow him down
To where his river lies

His blood fades to black
No light to shine
No light to guide the way
Knock knock (let me in)

In the doorway
His light shines so bright
He's coming in.

The Last Winter

Porcelain face,
Dripping blood,
A misunderstanding,
Isn't that how fear breeds?

Another massacre to entertain,
The blood shed to the ground,
Running for your life,
Was it worth it at all?

Sirens ring throughout the night,
Bullets zing from wall to wall,
Battle scars from the jealous alcoholic.
Winter winds blow
The shivers up your spine.

A misunderstanding,
The bloodshed,
Was it worth it all?

A night turned to hell,
The stars are all gone,
The last winter with you..
Was it worth it all?

He was a god
But only to those who knew him
He was their sun
Warming the hearts of those he had touched.

He was of the Holy Spirit
But only in his words
He was also the darkness
Spreading his lies and deceit

He was the moon
Hiding all of his intentions
He was the devil
Promising words of ill-gotten gain

He is the right hand of glory
He is the left hand of darkness
His desire to want more
His pride to never die

The hatred to keep burning
The sadness that is always overwhelming
The passions that are always endearing
He is the spirit that is inside all of us.

He is no hero
He is no zero
He is of flesh and blood

In this tragic story
He is human.

Truth

Seems to me that I found the root of why
I can't trust. It all leads back to you.

In your hate- I have found God
Everytime you held me against the
Wall screaming that I should, well
I'm not and I don't. I begged for Death
to take me, I'm glad he didn't.

In your sin- I have found love
I'll conceived, shot gun wedding.
The family you didn't want
The sobriety you weren't ready for.
You should have cared more.
Demonic abomination, ******* mistake
Your words to me everytime the *****
touch your lips.

In your faith- I have found forgiveness.
You're getting older, the grey hair shines.
The heart grows colder, the skins gets thinner
I look at you slowly dying.

The boy who wanted something real dies
with you. I'll mourn for everything
that we could have been.

The cold truth even after everything...

I'll miss you..

Black

Heart shatters, nothing matters.
Poet of lies- priest of nothing.
Prayers scream to the gods on high
Lightning strikes, it was the day laughter died.
Fall father, from the serpent's flower.
Lost souls spirit me away.
Unheard cries have left the dead paralyzed.
Trying to ignite the will of fire in their eyes
the dead will always sing the loudest.

A love not meant to be....
I saw her and I fell for the beauty,
the beauty of her eyes, her hair.
her name, her entire body of
ever lasting pain she put into herself.

At first glance, I thought she was only in
my dreams, but searching through
the doors of reality, I found out
she was flesh and bone like every other
mortal I've come across during my existence.

She was the winged creature of Dark,
as I was the one of Light.
She was the beauty that haunted my
dreams for many years. My thoughts
are only of her, and the emotions I have for her.

The darkling she passed herself off as,
I saw through the mask, through the
flesh and bone, and my eyes beheld
a most divine creature that was
placed on this Earth. I saw the beauty
of the real girl that I fell in love with.

It was the innocence of her smile, and the hope
in her brown eyes, that keeps me from
going down into the depths of the perpetual
abyss of regret and hate.

Hidden under the azure cloak and
hooding hair of ebony, lies the
Raven, that I am forever and foremost cursed
into loving. A love not meant to be....
