War
Two wounded soldiers
Guns pointed one another
Aiming down broken sights
Twisted broken from each fight

Faces scared fears cover the eyes
Triggers waver love and hate
Bullets fired but out of pride or hate?

They entered this war  
An army built of love and faith
attacked by hate and fear

Now just aiming down the broken sights
Memories of better days flash
Blood flows the wounds grow,
Tears break the soldiers eyes
The last bullets are fired at one another..

They were once lovers,
Now they are enemies
On the battlefield of love and hate
As they fall the hearts shatter
Once smiling believing in fate
Now bleeding thinking it was all fake.

The scratching the screaming of the howls of  night,
                                        
The blasts of canons for everyone fears the might
Cries of the fallen one by one
all fall to the arms of the dark one,
The rivers that have fallen to ash and blood
The tears that stain the faces once loved..

For them stone is etched with names of none,
Who all carried a weapon but not a gun
For these fallen under the names of none,
Where not soldiers but yet
They still fell to one's gun..

As I lay
My eyes weigh themselves shut,
heart is racing
My pulse not pacing
My blood oozing on the ground
The whispers in the dark
Weak, scared, pittifull,
I slowly stand
My eyes slowly open
My heart beats like a lion
My pulse strengthens
My blood grows from its wounds of freedom
Unwanted, ugly, unlovable
The fire breaks my eyes
A once dying fire
Consumes my soul
The lion inside of me shows
I don't care what they say anymore

I'll show them,
I'll show them all who I am
They can't touch me anymore
My eyes are open
Wounds are healing
My sword is sharpened

It's times they see,
WHO I AM.

I'm alone
I've lost everything I had
I've lost my voice
I've lost my fight
I've lost you
                  The gun shots that roared
The blood covering my pride
The scars that are ripped open
You did this to me

Outcast, freak, waist,

           Day after day you say it's me but,
You are the one who broke me
Who stole the last string of hope from me
So here I am sitting all alone

Looking at my phone memories of better days
But where they really better
Or was it just because we were together
But now these pieces are broken forever

And I never want them back together
I'm taking back my life
My life, will, fight,
And now I see a new light

              weak, insecure, broken, scared

They say poison corrupts you
Look at what you have done to me
You've taken every part of me and changed it
Saying I would never make it  

              I'm taking my bags and leaving
I'm taking my hope with me
               So if being alone lets me be me
So be it.

An angel with a twisted mask...
Who cut me down and told me I would never last
Who cut my wings so I couldn't fly
And told me I would die,
‘Cause i was never meant to fly
I ran from the shadows cast but...

I fell
And crashed
I  was snatched,
Into the shadows depts
They crawled and scratched
I feared their might...


I was a scared angel in the shadows
Torn by the light  
I saw the shadowed faces
scared and torn,  
Mangled by the lies of yesterday
For the shadows wore no masks,
The only real monster was the angel,
The angel with the twisted mask

When the ashes fall
And all is thought lost
the ammo runs low,
white flags are almost raised
When your legs give out
your dreams almost fade
Remember,..
The pain
Blood
The rivers of sorrow
Flooded from the oceans of regret
The anger inside your caged heart
Roaring clawing its way
It's not fear not misery
Nor sorrow or regret,
No…
This is you
The bravery breaking fear
Faith over anxiety
One day you will see
Those who doubt you are afraid of you
One day,
You will see the world through your eyes
Not there's
Just wait.

They told me I would never make it to the light...  
That the shadows would drag me into night ,
My storms would create too much death-
Demons would eat at me alive,
I have to say...


They were almost right  
The storm became my weapon
My shadows became my army
There is  no light  for
I am the queen of night

May the light fear my might
May my storms  shake the shores,
May the demons hear my roar.
I don't need their light
For I am the Queen of Night .
