Midnight marks the darkest hour And I lay in bed awake- As I listen to the tiptoes of an intruder Trying to be sneaky tonight A lean figure appears in my door A smile on their face I swoon as he stands in the moonlight Gleaming in all his dark glory- Mystery always did have a wonderful lure Everything about him spoke a million questions The true embodiment of mystery - Such as Why would this fellow visit me in the dark of night? There were thousands resting just alike My mystery man stalked closer, No caution displayed openly- And as he reached out his gloved hand I felt sparks ignite my form Wonderful! I shot up from bed- The shock was evident on this greek god But I could care less I was done playing games I asked him his purpose His reason For tempting me when the night has grown so cold He vanished- Once my fingers grazed him, He was gone as if he hadn’t come And yet again, I was all alone The mystery man visited me every night- same time same place But once we touched he was gone So I wondered if I was going crazy instead As time grew on I began opening my arms wider To the dark mystery that was this man And eventually, he joined me We became one Madness and all Some say things aren’t always what they seem And perhaps they were right My mystery man Now clear as day- Is no man in truth A man is a monster A darkness My darkness He filled me with fear And anguish And madness Those who cannot resist the temptation Risk losing more than just that- They risk their sanity and mind And revert into their darkest side The temptress always so evil Will wear you as a ring- And mold you to their liking Until you can't think a thing Beware of midnight visitors Though they seem perfect so- They are filled with more lies then mystery And it has truly come to show

Temptations
Midnight marks the darkest hour And I lay in bed awake- As I listen to the tiptoes of an intruder Trying to be sneaky tonight A lean figure appears in my door A smile on their face I swoon as he stands in the moonlight Gleaming in all his dark glory- Mystery always did have a wonderful lure Everything about him spoke a million questions The true embodiment of mystery - Such as Why would this fellow visit me in the dark of night? There were thousands resting just alike My mystery man stalked closer, No caution displayed openly- And as he reached out his gloved hand I felt sparks ignite my form Wonderful!

The chains of life slowly drifting, As the spirit melts away, As the tide is ever shifting, Swallowing the light of day. Rigor of the body swaying, To a tune that Hades hums, Two coins, and no more pain, River Styx will fill my lungs. Horror of rejection fading, As my past loves turn to dust, I'll go with you, silent, praying, I will forego earthly lust. Sanity completely leaving, Echoes call me to the void, Things are seldom worth believing, I'm so sorry doctor Freud.

Thanatos
What can I say it provoked me. The smokey black slithered with sultry grace passed all my carefully placed defenses. Humor me, it spoke caressing the ear. I watched the glow of it's single eye searching my mind The black became a tether knotting, choking. What can I say I did nothing, little lamb laid to the slaughter. I remember it choking, the smokey black. Like a raven haired lover, A mistress of shadow wills my curiosity In that moment, lost to the movement I would or could never return. Pinned to obsession staggering the lines of possession A rebel's tango begins the staccato steps to be my end.

Blackness came
I have not felt the urge in so long Tonight the desire is strong I attempt to resist But I find myself tracing the white lines Over and over again For now, I trace with my fingertip However, tonight the desire is strong The desire to see the shine of the blade To feel the pull as it neatly slices the skin To see the bright red as it fills in behind the blade How long can I resist this urge Now where did that come from Look a shiny blade in my hand I have missed you Let me see you work Let us make new scars

Tracing the Scars
I lay here staring Hoping it will ring The phone to my happiness The remedy for depression Closure to my insecurity Why won't she call Why cant she see The need for her assurance In my life. In my world She'd be queen She'd be first And i'd be happy Im loosing it Tempted to cut To choke To smoke To get drunk To forget The hurt inside If only i could Tell her how i feel Maybe she'll understand Maybe she'll see How important she is to me But what scares me most Is hearing the anger in her voice The will to go on without me Her happiness without me The joy someone else might grant her So if that day comes The one where her silence deafens Her gaze relocates The spark dies down And friction looses its grip I'll crash and burn Worst than 9/11 And i'll pay the price One i can't afford They don't understand They say im too weak, too young I know more than they do Because its happening to me This will be my 32nd disaster And just like the first 31 I'll fight alone I'll crawl alone I'll cry alone I'll be alone In my corner At the back of her mind Im broken No glue can fix me Every nut, bolt and ***** I've lost them all Help is no longer needed But what i'll smile about Is the fact that When I hang from that tree And then lay in my box She'll look at me She'll see me She'll know what she missed And when she speaks She'll know how i felt How i mourned How i burned Then she'll love me back

Heart aches, Head aches. All I wish... Is to feel nothing at all. Become Stone. Never to be alive. Again. No more, May the night. Conquer me...
