Fire burns
my darkness away
which
lies dormant
always wants
to
come out &
to play

The madness
keeps me sane,

the high waters
on a starry night voyage
into the depths of a void
lights my flame

Spin a web of lies
to quicken our demise
For love
is lost
in those
glossy glistening
gleaming
eyes

be weary of
those whom  
speak kind words
yet
have cold hearts

elusive
queen of hearts
dabbling in
the darkest
of arts

save me
from
this
twisted fate
in this state
my vision
blurs
silence stirs
my voice
purrs
our worlds
merge

The wicked youth spin
Tales only seen by eyes
Uncouth
They light the cigarette
In the wind of a gas station daydream
Reckless as the night is long
The days are short and sweet
Vapid beings in a realm of
Lust, eyes wild behind the
Sun kissed hair piled high
The wicked youth
Come out at night
Hide in the day

rock n roll blares
flowing in the veins
I long to feel your blues
on a dreary sunday noon
I pray to the moon
in awe of her sight
and dream of you
in black & white

His eyes
shifty
indeed
his mind
filthy with greed
his love
elusive as can be
my love
overflowing at the sea
seductive
yes
self destructive
a mess

Vampiric energy
drains
my
synergy
Dark moon
howlin
night time
is an enemy
for it is
in the dusk
my mind wanders
drowning in
dark thoughts
& ponders

My fingers
numb
as I write
these
words
vermillion
blood
pours onto
the page
I spill
it all
in hopes
you'll stay
drain me
clean
  lost my
sparkle
lost
my gleam

Vices of  
my men
drain
me time
through
&
time again
for
time with them
dims my shine
but
what is time?
an illusionary
man made
sign
of when
to resign

I’ll walk the path
Even if alone
I walked the line
It wasted my time
It dimmed my shine
you are
no longer mine
To have
To hold
It’s time to be bold
So I’ll walk this path
I’ll do it alone

Dream worlds
are dangerous
for the tortured soul

A captivating space
for a femme fatale
With a gaping
black hole
In her heart
& her mind

Trouble may diminish
But it comes back around
I do find

So
I’ll walk the path
Even if alone

I walked the line
It wasted my time
It dimmed my shine

I'll walk the path
I’ll do it alone

Paved a road
with blood, sweat, & tears
this road winds
away from
devils  disguised
as angels
whom
enticed me
for years
Toxicity burned
into cold ears
so
I walk this path alone
no longer
walk the line
waste my time
or
dim my
shine
clock strikes
time
to be bold
I walk the path
I do it alone

Razor sharp
glass
cuts deep
blood
stained
sheet
dark eyes
glisten
under the
illuminated moon
you speak
filthy lies
I swoon
trembling hand
grasps
poisonous
wine
salty tear
drips
whisper
I'm fine
clock ticks
eerily slow
I put on
a show
dramatic
undercurrents
flow
air
thick and toxic
we
waste away
You and I
could never stay

Take your false
sense of superiority
elsewhere
for we are
all addicts
in this consumer
culture
you aren't any more wise
than the man with a needle
in his vein
we
are
all going
through some
sort
of
pain
so tell me once
more
with an upturned nose
as you glue your
devoid eyes
at your phone
how you are better
than
the addict

cheap thrills
& white pills
Dream worlds
Are danger
For the troubled mind
A captivating space
For the soul
Whom craves escape
From time to time

I saw the clearest
of messages in
a vivid dream,
my feet were
chained as
I was
drowning in heavy
waters and couldn't
swim upstream

When the illusion shatters,
I'll finally get free
The hidden motives
will be revealed to me
my glistening thoughts
float away, I shall
interpret them
on a brighter day

Gilded love ends,
can't seem to stay
the darkness may loom
forevermore,
as it's always near

some mysteries remain
unraveled,
not all roads meant
to be travelled
life is strange indeed,
in my rose garden
I'm planting the seeds
purge the worries,
purge the sorrows
Empty mind,
can you fill these hollows
Inspiration fleets from my palms
I tried to grasp it,
but it can’t stay too long
Inspiration flies away
I’ll capture it again
when the wind don’t sway

winter solstice
solace for all
time to swoon
for the
abundance
of truth
illuminates
the
harvest moon
as above
so below
revelations
to bestow
upon those
whom answer
the call
kiss goodbye
the heavenly
fall

Burn my
Energy
Into moonlit
Shadows

The lights
Sparkle & twinkle
Teasin' me
Slightly


My mind is
clear,
vacant
like the motel
by the sea

I see you now
As you are,
Tall and
Scared

The glass
shattered
in my grasp,
withering
Love
will never
last
