#darklove
wrapped around fresh bones - a graceful past, her throat filled with black flowers. petals pour from her mouth; a fractured sanity shattered in half. her eyes - a gravity of your fears - white as snow, empty as dry oceans. faint suns; pale stars in the starved sky. each day crawling closer to you; an ocean of rotting promises. wrapped around the night - her skin pulses with the ageless music of passing hours. bleeding with love, dripping with festering delight. an enchantment of decomposing virtue - covered in spoiled children of death. a kiss so bitter; a touch so sweet - all so beautifully decayed.

All So Beautifully Decayed
I thought maybe , maybe if I were blonde or red-haired maybe if I were taller or shorter maybe if I were more German or more Latin maybe if I were funnier or cooler maybe if I loved you more or less maybe if I talked more or less maybe if I came closer to you or stayed further away maybe if I had lived in this country longer or not as long maybe if I wore more revealing clothes or covered myself more maybe if I were more like those girls or less like those girls then maybe you would love me then I thought of something else if I became all those things I would become less myself and if I were less myself would the person you loved still be me?

The Formula for Being Loved
The bright light shines In the darkest of hours Where does one go To rid myself and shower? Through the darkest of forests Grueling caves, city lights No man can withstand The burden at hand An immortal hunger A man with no slumber… I yearn for the taste of love I’ve outlived any future I imagined Drenched in crimson showers I yearn of passion Blinded by the smell of lust… As the midnight hour strikes I stretch my wings Shake off my imaginary thought And prepare for flight This curse of mine I wish to die for just one night…

MAN-BAT
Walk away now. Turn back before you have gone to far. To good for black widowed ways. More than her preying mantis love. She knows the monster that she is, This is why she tells you to run. Her greatest creation, The masks for which she has spun. Intricately woven threads of silky lies intwined with bits of brokenness. A warm summer breeze to mask the inferno within. A sweet delicate smile to mask the bleeding tongue. A flutter of her eyes to mask the cold dead stillness. Run. She gives you fair warning, Run. This is not what she wants for you But she can not help who she is. She would rather you in the arms of another lover Then to remain with her where she will eat you alive. Her darkness is contagious. Her beauty only a facade from afar. Get to close she will cut you and allow the Black Death to seep in. She doesn't want this, she doesn't But she is to weak to stop She is only strong enough to warn you But you must chose to walk. Turn around. Run. She cannot feel though she tries Forget this girl and move on. You are to good for her. Need I tell it to your face? You are to good for me. (And he did)

Forget her
You keep calling, With that voice, The one I use, When I want a twist. Into whatever is happening, Me and you, Her and him, Toxicity and whatever this love is. The close pull, Long pauses, In between moments, The unseriousness into what we are. The mixture we dont hate, Poison, Made for both of us, I introduced......you stayed. Now you keep feeling, A past, You aren't sure you want, You want that intoxicating pull. Like an attachment, You keep me close, More of whatever I am, Like you cant live without me. You want nothing, To do with me, You say that, While getting undressed. A little bit of this and that, Always, Between me and you, Maybe one day we will change. By:Jn

Attached.
In the darkest places you can roam, In the coldest waters, far from home, In the deepest fears you keep inside, A single whistle I’ll be by your side. I can wait for months, for years, for days, Lost in time, in silent ways. At your first call I will come through, With all my love, I’ll rescue you. But if you hurt me, look and see, The fault will rest inside of thee. For those who wound what once was true Regret the pain they never knew.

I will come
Its never ending  December So much tragedy glows Amber Inside a useless head ,cold restless and messy bed. Sleep left its been a while, No strength to run another mile a small try to gather all  scattered pain Its easy when eye forgets to rain Like The Bard of Avon , He preserved beauty in poetry Beloved's beauty within summer's day of Sonnet 18 .. Can I too ?..no beauty but the pain of unknown duty by hurting  alone ? Maybe summer exists there In mythical world and happy classics ? In the clear sky of summer Where the star winks? Its a Place of forever winter Snow melts by old tragic tales Blanket narrates those until the liquid pearl fells No bird sings to soothe the heart Without melody all we fall  apart Within heart winter stays, No sunny memory of heydays Eyesight without sleep ,heavy limbs numb lips Can't talk about ,all the tale it keeps So we write through heavy mind Maybe summer exits in a world Where winter is kind

Winter Lives Here
as that white luminous orb sings to me every night, finding me yearning in a state of inescapable isolation, longing for you to inhabit my vessel once more, begging for your soul to land back within my fingertips, smiling in a daze when i think of all the times we had, a time when you were mine to absorb, a time when my veins would crave sinking their teeth into your heart, allowing it to pulsate with the pinnacle of human emotion, my love. one you deemed was infatuation, obsession, dependency, exhausting. but if yours was “love” , why would you refuse my hearts gates? one you deemed evermore a segregated cage. as that red luminous orb sings to me every night, evoking that image of our beautiful red string intertwining our caricatures close, comforting me of my loss for when i regrettably wake up, realizing its songs full of deception, myself full of delusions, finding it was an unadorned white string i had pulled and submerged in our blood, in an attempt to fool the universe. finding oneself laying in a puddle of pretty teardrops, a heart super soaked, drowning me in my own sorrows from the inside out gently arising, passing silk curtains, ones footsteps approaching that glistening balcony, my eyes call for clouds to reveal, as that white orb cries empathizing with my epiphany, i close my heart once more, the breeze carrying me to the tides, where the ebbs and flow will chant my bloods flavor, moons mourning the oceans tragedy.

Deluded red oceans in mourning
Too many graves the corpses, gone. I counted wrong. Too many knives, the wounds, done. I healed wrong. Carving a waterfall in that trap door you call a soul. Craving to become a river to pour in you this madness you call my soul. Too many shadows the faces, gone. I thought wrong. Too much on my mouth the promises, done. I spoke wrong. Carving a crack in that wrecked beauty you call a heart. Craving to sneak and pour in you this virus I call love. Too much good heaven, gone. Too much joy disguises, done. I promised, never again. The fingers, crossed. Carving doodles in the ruins of who you were. Craving eternity as I pour this madness into the ocean you call us. [Another recurrence of the Devotion Rot habit—spilled as art.

Craving, wrong
Fishing at the edge of this abyss murky waters swallow my feet always wondering, wondering always what lurks underneath? Setting a beautiful net shiny fabric swallowed by haze always fooled fooled always what will I trap? Fishing at the verge of this abyss mucky waters stain my skin always hoping hoping always it will be worth it. Fisher, you should have known only foul critters crave beauty. Fisher, you should have known only atrocious jaws devour love. Setting a beautiful net worn out golden fabric always loving loving always the teeth sinking in my hands. Setting a tender net sewn back with hair always knowing knowing always who would adore you if it is not me? [Another recurrence of the Devotion Rot habit—spilled as art.

Those Who Crave Beauty
Midnight makes no sound when it arrives. Silently deadly you sneak into my bones, sweetly deadly you nest inside. With no time to escape and too scared to play dead. Night craves for no light and my only shelter is my own flesh but oh wait, you are already inside. Silently deadly like a virus, sweetly deadly like love. Every day at dusk, I hide. But oh wolf, you have to find me only once. Loudly blatantly you munch my bones, delightfully blatantly you nest inside. [Another recurrence of the Devotion Rot habit—spilled as art.]

Sweetly Deadly
I rest your head on my lap and I promise everything is alright. I caress your hair— and it's myself who I deceive when I say I will heal all that aches. Playing peek-a-boo with your demons I grant each and every desire. Gasping lullabies to your ear, do you rest when they sleep? Playing hide and seek with your demons they feed me all your whims. Gasping bedtime stories to your ear until you fall asleep and they come with me. [Another recurrence of the Devotion Rot habit—spilled as art.]

Stop
People warned me, turned against me, said I was a fool. Yet you I trusted but now that's busted. Still my love overrules And I don't wanna **** something so divine. Who knew I could have so much love inside? Even through all the suffering, for you I’d still give anything. You’ve turned my care into a curse, my offer of aid into a disgrace. You're always messing with my mind, sabotaged all I tried to rebuild. Now I lie in bed alone clinging to all you left me. I still look for your attention and I have cried so much over your wandering affection, over how I miss your touch. Tell me how can I move on when I’ve loved you so wholly? But I don't wanna **** something so divine. Highly doubt I could even if I tried. I’ve held on so tightly though it’d suffocate me. But even through all the suffering, for you I would do anything.

Painful Divinity
I promised you I would always stay, swore on a bond I thought would never break. Then there came a time everything conflict but I meant every word, every bit of it. I can still remember myself say That I’m with you, all the way. I held on so tightly, refusing to let go, my heart cracking wildly with every push-pull. I found myself drowning in all that I know, but I’m not one for giving up. No, I stay faithful... I do everything that I can to lift you up. I give anything without ever planning to stop. And then for a moment, when I’m left alone with my dreams, a voice pipes up asking, what about these? And what about me? I march and stagger onward, far under the stars Carrying the weight of two broken, battered relationships and a big heavy heart that’s covered with scars. Who ever knew it would come to this? Vengeful memories haunt me in the night And I pray all this pain and suffering will finally subside, Yet for you I’ll still stand strong. Even worn out, I’ll keep holding on. Yes I’ll BURN alight in hopes of winning your fight.

Keeping My Promise
Her skin tone is dark, So she gets no good marks. She walks on the road or goes to the park, She fears people passing grave remarks. Why darkness is not beauty? Why do people tell her to be fair and lovely? Can only fair be lovely? And dark is ugly?

Dark and lovely
In silent dread My weary steps slow and falter On this winding path I tread Sadness reflects upon the water And on my soul, its shadow cast Sadness comes, sadness goes Life is bright, or dark with woe Will you kiss my cold lips at last? My heart grows faint and weary Touched with deep grief On this longest day dreary A gift of sorrow without relief And on my soul, its shadow cast As daylight fades Into deep night shades Will you kiss my cold lips at last?

Will You Kiss My Cold Lips?
I can’t even think to for the words for you, so many so little time.. I’m sorry: for being even a blip in your existence For taking you away from your course That I’m leaving a stain in your memory For wasting as much time as I already have You’re sleeping next to me tonight That I won’t be your sacrifice I won’t be able to give you our demon spawn That I allowed myself to love you I say you’re the most beautiful I’ve ever seen I’m so ******* stupid For absolutely loving our *** Because I accepted you with ease That we have a divine connection I couldn’t help you help yourself The others before me hurt you so bad For not being able to give you the world My emotions get out of hand That sometimes I just don’t understand I have shown you a different light This will be our last fight It’s our last night But I have to stop there because you would tell me I’m making it about me or not trying to understand you But tonight I will be selfish and I will say my side even if no one sees this I’m so happy I got to fall in love with you even if you, as you say, don’t love me You are the best I will ever have in bed; you hold me all through the night; our *** is unreal, the way you can make my body feel You listened when no one would and wouldn’t when everyone could lend an ear I haven’t had any serious nightmares since being with you but I’ll lay it out right I have nightmares every night You make me feel unstoppable, I never would have felt that without you The amazing things we seen and the earth shattering things you allowed me to dream The way you made me scream acting out my fantasies Purple spotted skin from the **** you were not into; including ******* on me Feeding into my multiple personalities, allowing them to learn how to love and it’s ok for little Maddie to be Letting Maddie roam free, mushroom hunting and ******* me Telling me you actually enjoy my poetry; making me feel motivated and free I love your soul and every personality including Zero... even if he wants to **** me Nights and days in the cemetery; that night you grabbed my back, the nap that could’ve lasted an eternity Eternity...you make me believe Most of all showing me that this reality is just another dream; coming to know me you know how I exit my dreams So I’m sorry to say this will be our last memory because tonight I will finally give into my urges to bleed I don’t intend to die but sometimes I can get a little extreme and hopefully tomorrow I might wake to a dream within a dream I wouldn’t get my hopes up though because it will probably just be a cold reality

You must understand my fear As I grow closer to you dear No more bite or insurrection You penetrate the armour Hard covers but tender underbelly Be gentle in your stroke Blisters fester Red welt of swollen lips Let the blood fall as it may Unafraid You are the light in my everyday Slither hither & crawl over blistering heat You seek, you sting Sharp penetrating glance Venom glistens like the dewdrop Do drop & Let drop the droplets Wet hard the mind **** Chittering madness Stinger in brain Dark obsidian, your poison sings Your back Glistens shiny. Your armour penetrating dance Brings me back Tail quivers Knees weak Crawl to me The strike The sting Your poison venom The venom inside me No antidote or logic No rhyme or reason Your venom sings sound gone Mind blown Eyes blind and heart bleeding I am your zombie baby Obey me Tease me Play with me Seize me Sting me Again and again.

Scorpion’s Sting, Love’s infection
He looked at her, Her hands were caked with black inks, Filled with words she will never utter through her mouth, How effortlessly she twists her hair into messy bun, How she never ever wears make-up, Daring enough not to conceal her beautiful imperfections, How she clung books tightly to her chest, Like a shield defensing her, And how she walks confidently, yet stares on the ground afraid to have any eye contact, I can't help but get attracted more and more by her quirkiness, Every ******* time she passes by me.

Quirky yet Fascinating
While sleeping and holding Shadow Queen tight Shadow King slowly began to feel his body being puked away from her, like it (or something else) didn't want him close to her. He caught himself and fought the urge to let her go and stayed where he was. Then he felt it again and heard a voice inside his head telling him to let her go. He fought back once more and this time held her tighter. Then in his mind he saw a creature dark red with glowing red eyes pop into his mind it began to pull his Shadow Wolf spirit. The more it pulled the more his body tried to pull from Shadow Queen. It seemed as tho his Shadow Wolf was almost helpless when it came to this daemon so he fought back. Soon both Shadow King and his Shadow Wolf were fighting this creature. They finally destroyed it, tho it was not easy. Shadow King was finally free to hold his queen tight all through the night. The next morning Shadow King felt something strange...it was happiness, pure happiness. He had not felt this in a long time, might never really have felt it. There was no longer anything holding him back from loving his queen with everything he had. They're lives were so much better simply bcs they were finally happy together. <3

You chose the wrong girl Even I can see I am perfect for you I would have taken all your darkness And swallowed it whole If you needed a fight I would have given it to you And baby we both know I am a pro at making you feel like a man I could have stood in a room with your crazy And we would shake hands **** that We would have torn each others clothes off And ****** like animals Like a mad symphony In its chaotic way It would have worked You stupid man
