[December 21, 2016]

He stands within the darkness of the decaying storm
Feeling the raw power of nature as it devours his form
He is a frozen statue, bound to a world of broken force
The crimes of humanity lie before him like shattered quartz

An exposed society hangs beneath dripping despair
Corruption and greed lead people with a hungering stare
Grinding their freedom and dreams into a hopeless dust
The tyrannical power is resented with a merciless disgust

With renewed vigor, the clouds burst into an explosive frenzy
Frozen swords slice the air with an unstoppable frigid intensity
He erupts with brilliance, a savior hidden behind distraught calamity
Each step an earthquake, his breath a hurricane, he bends gravity

Within his hands he holds balance, an undeniable force of power
His anger turns to vengeance, for the king who rules like a coward
His voice booms throughout the kingdom, a challenge mightier than thunder
The people watch in awe as a man stands before the king outnumbered

With a flick of his wrist, the battle is balanced
The king watches in horror, as his army is silenced
The storm surrounds the battlefield, consuming the two men
Blade meets blade as they charge each other time and again

Tornadoes rip apart the landscape, as the battle is fought
Sweat rolls from their bodies, as the world turns to frost
With each blow, the castles crumble, impenetrable walls decay
The people watch helpless as their power takes everything away

With a tremendous shout lightning explodes from the desolate sky
Striking the barren landscape where the kingdom used to reside
The inexplicable horrors of war naught but a fantasy come alive
The corrupt king drops to his knees, beaten and ready to die

A man of hatred and revenge stands victorious above the defeated king
The king grovels and whimpers, pleads for his life upon the brink
With a murderous gaze, he stabs the king through his shallow heart
He names himself the new king and the cycle of power restarts
Author Note: Got lost somewhere. Found it, sorry its a little out of order.
Power [December 21, 2016]
Category: Corruption/Relative/Fiction
Describes the "cycle" of power, how greed, envy and corruption pass through generations.
[May 6, 2017]

Exhausted vacancy opens merciless gate, infinite sinking void
Distorted emotions emerge nauseous, haunted hostage destroyed
Tormented prisoner shackled, piercing thorns severing mangled reserves
Forgotten amnesia collides, asteroid disintegrating sentence served

Writhing agony reverberates melodies, sickening internal torture
Anguish hemorrhages sacred ancestry, disfigured grotesque horror
Atrocious helplessness submerges mortal, succumbing despair dismal
Grisly anticipation overwhelms, suffering exposed fragmented crystals

Indecipherable hieroglyphics erupt, wretched curse eternally afflicted
Predecessors declare origins, devastating traditions abruptly depicted
Genetic encryption deciphered, hereditary identification exhibited
Inevitable attribute reflected, obstructed arteries fatally riveted

Console interface traces, miserable entity awaits predestined termination
Comrades mourn unprecedented conclusion, condemn ruthless dictation
Statistic converges demise, executed corpse violently succumbs distress
Splattered lineage smeared, committing suicide liberated cardiac arrest
Cardiac Arrest [May 6, 2017]
Category: Relative
A poem describing the pain/fear of those who suffer from heart attacks.
[May 4, 2017]

Solitary lights dimly illuminate solemn shaded streets
Casting shadows of loneliness from melancholy feet
Footsteps whisper incantations, menacing manifestations
Dripping despair submerging snare, drowning foundations

Patience thinned, ravaging whirlpools conjured necromancer
Resurrecting tortured vengeance, staining decomposed master
Retribution ignited meteorites, shards summoning disaster
Consuming ocean greedily devours, sacred voided matter

Pavement flooding, sinking utopia into wretched sea
City merging, entwined abyssal columns formed misery
Forgotten torment, misfortune suffering hopeless calamity
Nightmare desolate, devastation condemned majestic legacy

Amnesia plagues wastelands, sickening poisoned figure
Disfigured and mangled, drifting distorted memories wither
Abominations awaken, furthering demon's splattered canvas
Trenches infinite, twisted brilliance, distant forsaken Atlantis
Atlantis [May 4, 2017]
Category: Legends/Myths/Relative
1. The feeling of being forgotten, compared to the City of Atlantis.
2. A representation on the events leading to the disaster of Atlantis.
[April 28, 2017]

Chilling rain renders through blanketed atmosphere
Piercing mist cloaked daggers slicing empty air
Tracing lines transformed drawings conjuring life
Dancing droplets falling from puppeteer’s knife

Swirling wind becomes vicious, chaotic tornadoes
Twirling strings wrap around limbs tied to elbows
Shadows reach into shattered sky, stealing light
Charcoal breathes scattered embers, puppets ignite

Flames devour greedily, consuming wooden faces
Stains sink poisonous fangs, tainting burning stages
Blazing chasms envious, swallows dignity converting ashes
Opening shameless fissures, quaking gaping compassion

Invisible thread overflows bottomless crevice slowly cracking
Despicable burst, exploding dirt, infinite dissension stabbing
Decimated bonds, drowning dread, bleeding agony worsens
Cynical depression, guilty confession, marionette master curtained
Marionette Master [April 28, 2017]
Genre: Fiction/Relative
How it feels to have no control, to be controlled. To be a puppet.
[April 16, 2017]

Crowded streets consume hopeless dreams
Corrupted gold steals, rivers become streams
Worthless beings banished, broken by fiends
Promises laced open, arteries bleed free

Hearts pumping ink, poison-stained anguish
Quills drip onto paper, all traces vanish
Thoughts slowly disappear, a distorted canvas
Twisted madness transformed deformed misshapen sadness

Harassed cruelly, misguided torment annihilates the mind
Contained within an asylum, shackled vastness confined
Shattered emptiness swallows fear, insanity driven blind
Decay crumbles away, chains reverberate shallow decline

Deteriorating steel rusts, frozen grains resume counting time
Radioactive bars disintegrate, evaporating their sickening crime
Eroding cells collapse, withering bitter resentment forgetting lies
Fools rupture silent dread, fracturing emotional fabricated demise

Flood gates burst aside, exposing rotten corpses buried alive
Burial mounds subside, testifying denied truth deprived
Sacrifices revived, divided liars welcome falsified alibi
Until tools are in pieces, embracing awaited suicide
Worthless [April 16, 2017]
Category: Fiction/Relative
How it feels to be worthless to others
[March 6, 2017]

I fell asleep listening to the voices
In my dying dreams I fell victim to my own poison
They tried to tell me but I was too ignorant
I wouldn't listen to anything but my arrogance

Time passes, lingering thoughts
Empty dreams, endless regrets
Pain and sorrow, shattered happiness
Broken bonds and forgotten misery

Enveloping innocent minds like a curse
I'm breaking apart, a tortured hurt
Endless tears in a bottomless pool
A waterfall of agony for a fool

The cascade of memories settles in
A canvas of dreams I no longer remember
Crumbling thoughts from a life I've left behind
Becoming something more in a land of lies

It's too late to change my mistakes
I simply bear the burden of endless hate
It's a vicious cycle of broken hearts
And I was the first to shatter apart
Arrogance [March 6, 2017]

[February 23, 2017]

Dripping despair clings to strangled emotion
Pools of crimson flow through empty streets
Silent hatred stabbing from cloaked sadness
Frozen shackles bound to worthless feet

Alone in a forgotten room of fear
Moss hanging from structured torment
Powdered dust consuming the air
Sparked happiness disappears

Broken and shattered
Torn and shaken
Crumbled and fallen
Rising to heaven
Hurt [February 23, 2017]

The feeling of being depressed.
