The Child in the Dark
Dred Erive Nov 2015
Come, child, let us play,
Let us feel the the world together.
Let me be your friend.
Forget about them.
Their mean words hurt?
Yes, that's why I'm here, child.
To ease the pain.
To release the anger.
To them, who always hurt you,
Where was mom anyway?
Oh, there she is.
Screaming with dad as always.
Something new?
Leave them, child, and come with me.
We won't be far.
Just near, by the river,
With no one but the two of us.
Child, come, let us jump.
No, it won't be long.
Come, child, you'll see.
Something darker than usual. I just want to touch the side of suicide and depression. In how depression really sinks in the minds and actions of many of us today.
“Crazy isn't being broken or swallowing a dark secret. It's you or me amplified. If you ever told a lie and enjoyed it. If you ever wished you could be a child forever.”

1,2
1..2..Wait.
I can't seem to do it.
Can I take a breather?
Should I move closer?
Do my eyes bother?
Nervous as I am,
I'll try, okay?
Here we go..
1..2..****.
Am I being ridiculous?
I don't know what to do.
I'm lost in your eyes.
Can I move closer?
So I can hear your heartbeat.
Yes-- this seems better, dear.
Love, I couldn't say it out loud.
What? Closer?
Here, any better?
Because you just got me bad.

Beast
Dred Erive Sep 2015
The best of her were merely
admiration
Her worst was the very thing
It fell for.
She paints with her heart,
While It writes from its mind.
It loves with its heart,
Yet she loves with her mind.
This girl who took a chance,
The soft touch
Which melt the beast away;
Wondering if this is real.
Wondering if she should stay.
Whether or not to stay away.
From the beast that had swayed
To her side.
For the beast had been tamed.
For the beast had fallen.

10
Where would you be
In the next ten years?
In the arms of another?
Or the arms of your lover?

Are you well off the days
going through the maze
of the world painfully
to be reminded shamefully

Of your past mistakes
your shameful response
to that one person
there was no pardon

Lost as we seem
Can't we see ourselves?
In the arms of our enemy.
Shamefully, painfully
Reminded of the past wars
To see as clear as day
That there was nothing to say
But it didn't matter now anyway.

Should I?
Dred Erive Aug 2015
Do I deserve to be happy?
The constant reminder of my failure
Makes it less than so.
Do I?*
The question seems to arose
More boldly than the word
No.
Did I?
Memories make it certain
That the answer
So it seems to be.
Will I?
I look at another
To see myself smile again.
Is she?

It
Dred Erive Aug 2015
It
The thing I love most in life,
Started with a thought;
Where everything seems lost,
but eventually,
You'll smile
As you think,
It was surely worth my while.

We lost it,
But found another.
We had it,
But we gave up.
Was it really it then?
When we both threw it away,
Was it really it?
Or it had lost its meaning?
Is it really me? Or is it all you?
No more answers, just questions.
No more decisions, just routines.
No more us, just... Memories
Moving forward step by step

Untitled
Dred Erive Aug 2015
You told me this was real,
You told me I was your everything.
You told me I was the thing you were looking for.
You told me I was the one.

You MADE me believe,
That I could be your everything.
That I am everything you wanted and needed.
That I am the one.

Then you made me realized,
I am your nothing.
I am everything you despise.
I am the very thing you hate.
I am the one you loathe.
I am.. not yours.
I am never going to be the one.

Doggy Heaven
Dred Erive Aug 2015
The bark would howl,
As your golden fur glittered in the sun.
Sticking out your tongue
To the hot blazing sun.
Your smile meant a thousand more  
And so you went to sky,
To that little doggy heaven
To that place you'll be fine
Where you'll be surely be greeted
By green grasses and more.
I know this is goodbye.
Goodbye, my friend, goodbye.
You'll always be
Part of me and the whole family
Forever to be
My little Yogi
Just a little something for my shobes :) hope you liked it :D

Let's just go
Dred Erive Aug 2015
Let's just go,
Away from this life;
Deprive from human activity,
Or away from sanity

Let's just go,
Without plans in hand;
Just some money and some pans;
See my fears as they grow,
In this world of sorrow.

Let's just go,
Away from here.
Please dear.
I can't take it from here;
I need to go somewhere where I can be free.

Used
Dred Erive Aug 2015
There were nothing left,
As there was nothing to give
Nothing to make nor take.
Would you still break me?
Every last drop of my soul
You have taken it whole
Your friends shared me
You laughed as they take me in
I felt so use that to the point
You broke me, emptied me,

sincerely beer

The Dance
Dred Erive Aug 2015
She swayed to the side,
As their hands intertwined.
Her lips moving,
With no words to be heard.
They moved closer to each other,
Not knowing who will be the first
To make the move.
She touched the face of her lover,
As they went on dancing.
The tears weld up. As they keep on dancing;
No one stops dancing when you've danced with the devil.

Who killed who
Dred Erive Aug 2015
I saw myself in the edge of destruction
As where my heart stood
The pain in its eyes grew
As I watch it crawling to the edge

I grab its vein as i felt the blood
Rushing out of itself
It struggles to leap
As i struggle to stay

It screamed at me
Screaming everyone who had killed me
The past who had haunt me
The could have beens that never cAme to be

I lit a cigarette for it to overcome the pain
The smoke that it'll inhale
No one killed it
But me

— The End —
