It is eleven at night
The bar is quiet and still
The mind a tsunami in calm oceans
Life a long lasting illness

A glass of wine sits across the table
A temporary cure to the condition
Life has become
In it rests solace and peace

A man in black sits on the opposite chair
He offers to get another
He is taken up on his offer
The wine lasts not five seconds

The man in black speaks
'I have come for you'
The gentleman stands up fixing his chair
'what took you so long'
One final drink is all you could ever ask for.
Neon lights flicker
As metal is pressed
Opening a door to another life
One never fully led
People are engrossed in ecstacy
Not knowing what is to come
The barrel is lifted
Shortness of breathe fills the air
Loud music appears silent as the dead
A moment is taken in regret
Doors are opened
No attention can be afforded
The first flash goes off
And the second, the third
Panic overcomes bliss
Selfish action stench throughout
Those present dropping like flies
Flickering lights help save some
And doom others to darkness
The spreading feeling of ecstacy
Has now switched places
A life filled with little to live for
Has now a brief moment of enjoyment
A second moment is taken to appreciate
The carnage of thing unpredicted to come
Flashes continue to ring out
Echoing through halls and stairwells
A room once filled
Now lies empty
Occupants either cower in fire exits
Or present as macabre displays
To lives cut short
Enjoyment has been had
Thrills have been felt
The price for it is accepted
A calm decent to the ground
Is met with a single loud flash
And so chaos turns into peace
As a calm emptiness fills the air

Tell me the ways to stay awake
I am haunted
Not by cruel fates
Or distrubing images
But by lives I will never live
People I will never love
And experiences
I will never witness
And so I stay awake
Dreams have become not a escape but a prison
And so I behold my manner
So grand in nature
Yet, so vile once entered
Something once pure and clean
Now a wrecked infested wasteland
Creatures crawl over every surface
Breeding without consent
Demanding resources
Taking every scrap they can

A grand ballroom
Baring witness to lushes parties
Now a sharp crunch can be heard with every step
Yet we dance on regardless
Locking our eyes on the still luxurious ceiling

Sudden to bring our eyes down
Over time to keep them distracted


How a chore this will be
One, nobody wants the privilege of
To clean up a mess so great
Time and patience
No interruption required
No encouragement
Watching the world decay
And so I sit
Among addictions and distractions
A constant influx of filth flowing in
Demanding attention, to have someone
Someone forced to listen

To smile at them
Tears creeping down cheeks
My fingers ripping my mouth open
Forming a bright wide smile
For all to beyond

The filth shouting at me
Blaming me for their choices
Screaming as if I am their puppet master
Begging for me to take control
But do nothing differently

My eyes as bright as ever
Looking ever so promising
providing a future, 5 more minutes
However, don't look down please
Below lies a ****** mess of tissue

An instrument once used for deception
Speaking broken promises, actions never to come
But once pure, speaking beauties and tales of wonder
Now sits as a rotten reminder of itself
Skin missing, teeth visible, and still smiling
To what life has taken from me and given such little back
I dream
Of a storm
Of epic scale
One to end it all

I dream
Of staring into it
Seeing the Finality of it all
"I am about to end"

I dream
Of accepting my fate
The hopelessness I'll feel
My whole life summed up

I dream
Of this releasing feeling
A world made clean
Of myself, of everyone.
Imagine looking at the clouds and seeing them as a tsunami or great storm. Something you can't run from.
There's a promise given at birth
A word to describe a generation
To give you purpose in life
A phrase to live for

To Tame
God's Promise
Eternal Life
A Friend,An Ally

All meaningless in the face of heartbreak
A pain in the chest
A suffocation as akin to drowning
A wanting lust, in need of love

I followed you all
Through pain, through terrible thoughts
Calling your name from a roof top
Begging for five more minutes

A giant mistake, each and every one
All better off without me
All moving to a brighter future
A world where I was better

Where I loved without resolve
Felt without resistance
And did, without overthinking
If only I had chosen this life

We cant go on doing this
Being selfish and apologizing
Sounding like a broken record
On repeat for those who care to listen

A wise man once said
Am I ever on her mind
Like she's on mine
I'm a fool for her

I was so young girl
I could have done better
We don't feel nothing at all
There's no remorse, just regret

Heaven help me
I fell in love
With your smile
Wanting a life with you alone

Everybody Changed
Right before me
Leaving me behind
Desiring life, happiness

A bottle of stars
Unmaintainable
A imaginary world
Time to wake up

To all those who's lives I've affected. And visa versa
