Alone I shall be,
But alone will not grant me peace.
In the dark many shall come,
Comfort, the least of their desires.

Memories they will flood,
Pain and anguish, limits of sanity
Hand in hand desperate journeys.
Little room for else do they leave.

Unreasonable ventures to the depths.
Journeys to the minds soul.
Forgotten friend lost in the storm.
What path his heart has taken?

Happiness and sadness
Closest of friends for eternity
Each day shall be the last
But no end shall ever bless.

Evil spell casting lots
Spoken words and deep thoughts
Price paid in blood
Happiness finally bought.
Marty Mar 2018
Scream! Scream! To the heavens I scream! For one drop of mercy, I scream! On the parched earth a bended knee raises the dust. Tear soaked eyes refuse to raise the brow. Rivers of love dissappearing upon the cheek. Not a hand reaches down, not even one. As I scream! And scream! From heaven a gentle beam, yet I only scream! The blackest of hearts slowly dies with each agonizing thought. Darkness overshadows the glorious love. Blood runs cold and washes away with a dissappearing love. Upon the cheek memories fade and the ravens devour the soul. And, I scream! For the return of love I scream! No greater agony persist than that of true loves dagger to the heart. For love I scream! For the final breath I scream! For the shadows and confines of darkness I scream! For silence and a deserved rest I scream!

I haven't been in control of my life in a very long time. Women have taught me to do what they say when they say and how they say and if you follow their rules enough and let them beat you down enough and allow them to humiliate you enough then if I am lucky I will have that one moment where I can close my eyes and shut my ears for moment and lie to myself and believe that because a woman Is allowing me to be inside of her that she actually loves me. I have those few seconds where I believe that notebook is real. I have those few seconds where I believe the lie of I'm worthy.
This isn't a poem. It's a text that I sent a girl.........friend... I have no idea why I'm willing to share this but here it is. It actually ***** to open my soul this much guys so please be kind

Its 4 am
The windows are locked
The doors are double locked
The hinges have been checked

Ive pulled the covers tight
Tighter and tighter till I can't
Breathe

Shhhh, hush not a sound!

And now I can't see?

Hush, please!

Where is it that they might be.
The fear is choking the life from me.

I'm awake I'm awake, in my bed
In my bed I quake. Feel it shake!

I scream to the windows.
I scream to the walls.
To one and all, I call
But silence upon there ears fall.

Can you not hear me?
Can you not hear?
From neath the marsh I call.
Soaked with their pain.
A permanent bloods stain.

I call, I fall.
I fall and I call
I scream and I gleam
But my eyes have lost their beam.

I CALL

I CALL
Marty Apr 2018
Empty walls
And
Empty halls

Empty bed
And
Empty arms

No one to wipe the tears
And
No one to share the smiles

No more good morning kisses
And
No more morning breathe

No more late night crazies
And
No more breathless moments

No more hello's
And
No more goodbyes

No more chances
And
No more late night dances.

Only
The devil
And
His evil prances.
Marty Feb 2018
Shall there be the day
The heart will no longer stay
Will the arms to heaven high
Reach after the gentle sigh

Will death befall passionate love
As war removes the white glove
Will blood spill upon the ground
As the knee bends on the mound

Long after the blood is shed
Love will rear it's ugly head
No matter the cost to the heart
Love will remain a lonely part

Other hands upon the  tangled web
As the flow removes the final ebb
Nothing but dismal visions remain
As time has invoked lasting pain
Marty Mar 2018
It is in this room full of souls
That I lie alone in the dark
It is in this room full of love
That that I feel nothing but
Loneliness

Velvety roses, bathed in a crimson flow
Still, I lie alone in the dark
Blurry eyes, endless weeping, and broken hearts
And my soul feels nothing just
Loneliness

Empty heart never to be hurt again
Still, I lie alone in the dark
Sanguine rivers turn to powdery dust
And the eyes show nothing but
Loneliness

Final goodbyes and fresh earth
And finally I'm alone
Nothing but memories and broken hearts
Lonliness.
Marty Jul 2018
Ungreased wheels on my chair,
No one to push,no one to pull,
Rolling, struggling to get out of the room
A room with no light and no direction.

A room with no floors,
Only heavy rains seeping into the ground
Fighting to pull the wheels, another round,
Stuck in the clingy clay swamps

No sounds, but the beating of the heart.
Deafening, piercing the drums with screams.
Thousands upon thousands of voices
Taunting and teasing but no one in sight

Oddity of friends gather round.
Droplets of blood running down the arm
Each gaining it's own name.
Razors become an invite to friendship

A bug in the corner, a man that doesnt exist.
Friends long sense gone
And notes left to yourself.
Become a ray of hope,  but nothing more.

Mornings light mocks the soul
A reminder that no one is here.
Courage and cowardice go hand in hand
As the blade sends the rsvp
Marty Feb 2018
What is this thing love?
Carried by the bloodied dove
Such a daunting task
Hidden behind satans mask

The world bends at its knees
Screaming with gregarious pleas
Seemingly unforgettable stains
Left by loves horrible pains

Neverending sleepless nights
Scaring the soul with terrifying sights
Searching for the darkest cave
Burried well beneath the deepest grave

What is this thing love?
As they dorn the black glove
Final prayers are said
Just above the silk bed
Marty Aug 2018
Dry broken lips
Squelching for the words
To fill the minds soul
With peace and love

Glorious sunrises
Emparting life
Gracing a tortured soul
With mercy and hope

Jumping boldly
Playfully splashing
No fear, no shame, no guilt
Only childish dreams

Dreams, searching
For one moment of hope
Passion filling the lungs
With the first breathe of life

LOVE

FOREVER

AND EVER
Marty Feb 2018
Broken love! Broken dreams!
Endless nights it seems.
Blood drenched soil turns to dry.
The end of love pouring from the sky.

Black veils in shame

Deaths greed gathers round.
Heads hung low around the screaming mound.
Black heart on the mountain high.
Pitiful shame, love had a final sigh.
Devil rode a valiant steed.
Lust planted the final deed.

Ravens scattered at the boom.
They all saw death loom.
Eyes went deaf to the pity.
As loves shadows grew gritty.

Cold, cold shadows create the night.
As loves final farewell disappears from sight. Angry tones scream the chorus.
As a dying love becomes so porous.

Bended knees and final prayers.
No more need to climb the stairs.
Rest your weary head.
For love is now dead.
Marty Mar 2018
Tonight as I lay upon my pillow of nails my heart falls into a thousand galaxies. The pain that love has tattooed upon my heart has become more than my shoulders can carry. Thousands of stars have been plastered upon my skies with the words that each of you skatter to the wind. The beauty that each of you my friends share with rhyme and love is beyond that of imagination. My only regret as the time winds down is that of not reading more of each your poems of eloquence. You have bestowed so many pictures to my heart and to my soul. These are images that will bless me with fiery, graceful pictures of elegance until the ends of time. What no one has gathered with these words of my heart is that it isn't poetry. These are and have been nothing more than my legacy. My twisted rhymes and challenges to the hearts brain have been little more than an explanation to those that stay upon the path. My family, I have blessed with letters written with tears and shaky hands. Though some of the words may have been blurred with pain that splattered upon those pages, what was not wiped away should help them understand it wasn't greed or a lack of love. It wasn't against God nor did I lose faith. There comes a day when the rock in the sling can no longer slay the beast. It is then that that the giant and his sword of agony pierces the angels wings. The day has approached for the anniversary that I placed a promise upon the second finger from the right. My final poem will not be upon a page, but it shall be upon the stone that I sat my future and I gave my heart. Upon the mountains dust shall I leave the letters. It is upon each of your sights that I leave my second legacy. For my wonderful friend I found a star tonight. It was the brightest in the sky. I called that star, KimStar as I promised. If you shall look for the brightest star that is the star that I fell upon my knees and begged God to touch your body and heal your soul. You shall have my poem by my mornings light and I will make it shine. Tash oh Tash your heart your heart. No bigger blessing has God bestowed upon us miserable excuses for life. You are truly Gods Angel. You should know a creep I'm not. Tonight your beautiful voice shall I hear as the angels hug me tight and carry me past the stars. Wanmin, I can't even find a place to start. The beauty that you have delivered into a darkened soul have been so gracious. Thank you for the kind words that melted my heart and gave light to my darkness. Oh my God Gregory, tonight you have brought the tears to my eyes that washed the pain from my heart. I had no idea I touched you when you needed it. Be not deceived my friend. It wasn't you that has been blessed. It is I that have been touched and blessed just by being in your presence even for a moment. Your words are genius. Actually they should not be called genius, you deserve more credit than that. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Free mind. I have not finished the poem that we started together, but I shall try to, before……. I am ashamed that my words could never match the words that your heart placed upon our poem. Your friendship….. I can't express my gratitude any more than to say. Wow, you are all heart and your soul is an old soul that is perfection. She writes, oh does she ever write. If her poetry you havent over indulged upon yet, grab your fork and spoon and prepare for a meal that will satisfy your soul to the depths of eternity. I meant every word I said. Your eyes tell the story that your words describe. Put those words upon the page my friend and bless me with one final eternity in your words, but be kind. A poet makes or breaks those that encounter their pen. My friends as I close my eyes and beg God for no mornings light grieve not for life is only what we make it and when the winds blow all that is left is the hopes that you touched a poets heart. One last and final request. Leave something upon my page for those that shall read it after me. Thank you my friends. It is each of you that I think of tonight. Farwwell
Marty Jul 2018
Make it rain,
Make it rain your love
Till I'm feeling no pain.
A little slice of heaven from above

Make it rain,
Make it rain happiness
Till in your arms I belong
Angel's wings spreading your love

Make it rain,
Make it rain your **** smile
Till at home I feel
Make it rain, make it rain you
Marty Jan 2021
Sweet little tiny droplet,
Hypnotic hue of scarlet.
Mama's blessings and tears
Brought forth mama's fears.

Enchanting passionate journey,
Haunted by the ground wormy.
Lingering nightly prayers,
Waisted on scuffed knees despair.

Endless rivers, midnight search,
Upon pillows, droplets perch.
Hunting for a ray of light,
Somewhere in the midst of night.

Frozen words marred by soft lips.
Screaming quitely in tiny drips.
Mama's prayer hidden in silence,
As the river forgets its guidance.
Marty Jan 2021
Oh, sweet sweet child,
Rest your weary heart tonight.
For, the demons have compiled,
Little is left but the angels flight.

Upon mothers ***** sleep,
And lay your sweet little head.
In her arms cry not another peep,
For the sheep have crossed the bed.

Soaking the earth, tears have fell,
Woven into tomorrows pain,
Driven by a neverending well,
Hidden by yesterdays stain.

Sleepless nights, smothered dreams,
Pictures in the hall upon the wall.
Ripped apart by loves seams,
As the nightmares begin to crawl.

Mamas tears in a bed of fears.
Soaked sheets and worn floors.
Mamas tears in a book of years.
Drained from the closed doors
Marty Apr 2018
Can love be judged?

Can love be weighed?

If so judge the mascara that
Has been washed away.

Or

Weigh the lipstick that has been
Wasted with another's lips.
Marty Oct 2018
My heart breaks for the tears
The tears you shed through the years


My soul despises the pain
That left such an inglorious stain


The demons may have become an integral part
But, now is the time to remove them from your heart

A special heart  can share
If your soul you dare to bare

But be not afraid my friend
For this is no where near the end

Joy is only around the bend
For the stars have made sure you will mend
Marty Oct 2018
Ice cold river,
Burning a path through her veins
Branding a mark on the soul.
Eternity stolen by her eyes.

Heartless demon scouring the seas
Gnawing at the sailors flesh.
Silent screams begging,
Pleading for an ounce of love.

Only crumbs from the table,
Fell from where the family ate.
Little hope could be felt
As bones crumbled to dust.

Silently screaming, mercies' cry,
As the day drags to night.
Not a peep, not a crack or crevice.
As her armour shines through the night.
Marty Jan 2021
Broken shards plastering time.
Nothing but pain left to rhyme.
Moments of life, left in death
Searching for the final breathe

Reflections depleted to a stain
As love is left emulating pain.
One more kiss upon the brow
As the tainted lips disavowed

Mornings dew and birds call
As the feet take to the long hall.
Brightest of lights, message sent
For the fools broken knees, bent.

Bitterness of sweetest taste.
Such an iglorious waste.
Kneel before, as they sing
Await the golden tones ring.
Marty Apr 2018
The feeling of being alone still haunts
My mind
First time I saw you still excites
My heart

I can still see your beauty with
My eyes
Your skin I can still feel with
My hand

The moment you said yes
Time stood still
As my arms wrapped around you
I felt safe

For the first time I could feel
Real love
For the first time my body didn't
Feel abused

The only time I couldn't feel my abusers
Touching me
All I could feel was myself
Inside you

Finally I felt my heart beat
With yours
Finally my mind was free
From pain

Never would I have believed
Et tu brute
Now another looks in
Your eyes

As upon the pillow my
Blood spills
And in the final
Night

My body screams for the shelter
Of your arms
My ears scream for
Your voice

But you aren't there
Are you
You left me alone and
To die

Your wish shall finally
Come true
Your desires have
Shown through

I meant nothing
To you
I was only shelter and money in
Your pocket

Now watch as my friends
Line up
To only see my face in
Their dreams

Now you can watch as
They carry me away
Alive or dead
I am worthless

For you took
My heart
And my soul died
That day
How do you ever forget the only one you ever felt true love for. Is life really worth the pain if you can't feel love. Who shall ever love me now?
Marty Mar 2018
My                          King
My Lord                    My  God
Remove my             sickened blood
Take the pain   from     my sad heart
Place the power in my hand tonight
Pull my lonely heart from this evil world
Cover my soul with deep dark earth
Tell my friends to mourn not
Pull the shades too
Goodbye
Pain
Marty Feb 2018
Why did you call my name?
Did you not feel any shame?
You captured my heart
And wantonly tore me apart

You gave me all I want
Now you are an evil haunt
The *** was so Devine
You kept me in perfect line

Your name rang so sweet
Now it is my bitter defeat
I scream for you at night
Only demons come to sight

For my death tonight I pray
There is no reason to stay
A lonely dream that is best
To see the blood upon my chest

As my eyes I close
This is the path I chose
Memories I can't stand
Listen to the angels band

It is the flesh that I hate
In you arms I no more mate
Call not my name you *****
For the blood has begin to pour

They try so hard to save
But the minutes I shave
As the day draws nigh
Gather with a final sigh

In darkness cover my pain
For my life was not in vain
Torturous love only grows
When you realize that life froze

It is with closed eyes I smile
As my feet finish the last mile
Today I love her never again
For her heart I no longer contend
Marty Jul 2021
Out of the darkness into my room.
Tip toe, tip toe, you did walk.
Not a sound, eerie did you come.
Thirst for my soul you embellished.

Upon my naked neck, chills gave.
Breathe upon the hairs of my soul,
Taunting my sleep, laughter cried.
Screech screech tiny voice whined.

Awake, awake sleep no more!
My eyes open not, fear lock closed.
Pillow drowning, at the hearts plea.
While wiggle not given, urge urge.

Frozen ice in your shallow veins.
Tempestuous smile upon the brow.
Avalanche of growls piercing night.
Breast torn open and heart taken.

Silence

Silence, silence gasp for something.
Hand, nor eye from heaven fell.
Mercy mercy upon my knees I lay.
Demons scavenge, cause not seen.

Morrow, where is thy mercy?
Weakened soul and redundancy.
Whilst in thy bed, sleep you have.
Where is thy empathy?

Soaked sheets tightly wrapped,
Embossed tears flood the night.
Upon my cheeks questions flow.
Where is thy mercy, where oh where?

A single night, visit not I plea.
Upon raw knees, head hung low.
Hands grasping at heavens skirt.
Tears departing the dry soul.
Marty Jan 2021
Tiny wooden box.
Footprint on the rocks.
Whispers to the soul,
Long forgotten goal.

Where was I my friend?
When your life did end.
Hidden in the illusion,
Drowned in the demons confusion.

Be patient and open thy arms.
Soon I will return to your charms.
The path is dreaded and weary,
For of this world I'm found dreary.

Oh but the forgotten times
We were partners in crime.
The ragged heart searches
Remembering songs of churches.

The times in the hills
Buried by too many pills.
The happy dancing squills,
To this day my heart kills.

The day soon shall be,
By my side so much glee.
Let the dirt to the side move,
And from this world remove.
Marty Jul 2018
From the heavens a star fell.
Fell upon my lap.
Glorious gift from God
Perfection in my arms

Pristine oceans of green
Mesmerizing the nights air.
Captivating the heart
The heart of the ravaged soul.

Sweet melody of the wind
Pirouetting down the Angel's wings.
Such a beautiful melodic voice
Ringing melodies into the night.

Kisses blessed by the stars
As rain sweetens the passion
Lost, lost in a moment
Eternal bliss parading at the finger tips
Marty Jun 2018
Apologies my friend

It has been a while
I'm sure you thought
I had found a different style.

You are back in my arms again
I know you thought I was gone.
But time made sure love was slain.

Memories of her
Plaguing my mind
Have made my speech slur.

Forgive me and find your way,
Search deep and make your home
This time your edge is here to stay.

It will be our little secret path
This time no one will know
Of the internal wrath.

Make your mark for those to see
Let them know what is in me
Your pain will bring me such glee.

Forgive my time away
Never will I let you down
Because I no longer want to stay
Marty Mar 2018
Oh words fail me not
For there has to be a greater plot
Let my tongue guide the way
So the memory will ever stay

Passionate words twisted in rhyme
Makin sweet love last for all time
Visions and thoughts pouring from the pen
Captured eternity for all men

Misunderstood words upon the page
Captured forever in the paper cage
Stories of how sweet the love
Glory manifest from far above

Never more will this be sought
For hereafter it will only be taught
Poetry and dreams exposed for the sad
Loneliness and love never goes bad

Happy people live for the song
It seems to make them strong
For the notes they plea
In heaven they shall be

For the sinister twister of words
Nothing greater than the darkest birds
Line after line words unite
Such a glorious painful site

Not for glory or fame
Do we reveal darkest shame
Casting a spell for eternity
A brotherhood and forever fraternity
Marty Jun 2018
Darkened room
Dimly lit candle
Flickering to the beat
The beat of the nights love

Gentle soft breathe
Pulled passionately
Softly
Across the neck

Tingling touch
Upon the hips
Shivers down the spine
Uncontrollable twitches

Joined,
Deeply,
Sweating and moaning
Breathing as one.

Painful pleasure
Locks pulled so tight.
Gentle ecstasy
Mmmmmm

Reaching for…….
Again shes gone
Empty arms
Love is dead..
Night after night you dream of someone in your arms only to feel the loneliness of hugging pillows and air.
Marty Mar 2018
The sounds of the worms marching, the thud of foul earth shrouds with a reminder. Where is the angels song? Have the ears grown so deaf? Gentle tickle of the heart strings felt no more. Passion dies in the womb of love. Darkness falls before the warmth of the mornings light. Where is the angels song? Search not the empty soul for the dust of the earth has swallowed the dreams. Emptiness consumes passion. And Passion explodes with the next moments passing. Time halts not, and yet it moves for no one. The sun holds its place and the shadow move not in the heart of pain. For, tomorrow is today and forevermore is only a start, for the grief dieth not.
Marty Mar 2018
How long I have waited
To see your face again
Lying here beside of you
This is what love should have been

My hand caressing your face
Looking deep into your eyes
Beautiful golden locks
Forget all the terrible lies

I knew I would feel you again
Never has my heart felt so strong
A moment to never let go
It feels like it could go so long

He never stood a chance
As I speak beautiful words
That smile is plastered upon your face
My speech becomes more slurred

It seems as though you have nothing to say
Lying there staring into my eyes
I hoped for at least a few words
But I get nothing but my sighs

As my tears fall upon your cheeks
Your face becomes a blurr
Wipe as quick as I can
I knew this would occur

Blood covers the night
Painting the picture red
I had my final goodbye
Even if it was only a picture on my bed

The razor has made its mark
For all the world to see
Scorn my path if you desire
But no one has been me

Cut after cut the blood flows
And the pain wipes the thoughts
Into the darkness the soul slides
With longer and longer sleeves hides

It seems with a broken heart
Sometimes you go too far
The flow doesn't stop
Not enough strength for the car

Kiss thy foul blade
Give it praises unto God
For the gift has been given
Now hide thy pain under the sod
Marty Mar 2018
Oh gentle friend, thy pool of tears collected now turns red. Accumulating a joyous stain upon thy bed. A smile upon thy shame, as darkness prevails. Bringing an end to the endless tales. Gamblers hand, final deal. Bluff was called its time to steal. Away with mockery and shame, no one else to blame.
Sleep my child, close thine eyes. Glory awaits for those that do not hesitate. The words of the fathers curse the path, nothing left in the aftermath. In these shoes they have walked not. Not a foot, not a mile forget trying to bring a smile. Upon thy knees have went many pleas. Oh gentle friend hold thy head and take thy breathe, for upon thy ***** comes a final death. Words come so easy for the sheep but the fangs of the wolf pierce thy flesh. For they know it all, yet their ears have grown blind. Open thine eyes and see the fall. Say not your words for it is was given upon the plate. Served for all to see, the stain is real. Remove thy stain, still it persist. Wash thy hands and scrape thy skin. For in thine heart the stain will stay. Nothing will take it away. If only the ears could see. Oh gentle friend share the tells of agony at the bottom of the well. Only you can tell the story, and share the guilt. Let them know of the nights he was dealt. Tell the story my friend. For in their mind you will always be.
Marty Apr 2018
Drip…..

Drip….

To the floor love falls
Tomorrows yesterdays
Standing
Still in time.

Passion embodied,
Captured by finality.
Tortured by time,
And Seduced by death.

Blackened wings
Vengeance upon the innocent
Promises and
Promises


Love conquers all
By the swords edge.
Strong minds game
Devouring

The
Pure
At
Heart
Marty Mar 2018
Falling back onto the pillow of nails. Thousands of ravens pierce the evenings flight. Tiny glimmers of hope fading quick, begging the night for no mornings light. Swatting them away as the soul prays, the demons take their turns. One by one they rip and gnaw.  Sleep itself becomes a dream, a fantasy to behold. The weary findeth not the traveled path. Teasing and mocking the tortured soul. Round and round the daggers swirl. The night lingers on. Unable to move, unable to free the spirit, the body fades and slips into a pool. Why must the ravens persist, why must their anger nag so deep. Why do they prevent my sleep. No more could have been given, but all was taken. To the ravens I scream, part from my mind, relieve my soul. The day will come when they shall see. They shall see and feel as i. Let them tell the ravens goodbye, let them feel the empty bones as the night lingers on.
Marty Feb 2018
In the middle of the night,
far from human sight.
Lying in the demons bed,
visions of her piercing the head.

Taking deep breaths in the heart,
no longer feeling like an important part. Death is now the only thought,
oh the raging deamons the soul has fought.

Words of prayer beg for the body to stay, but the heart keeps screaming no way!
To the earth is the only place,
The visions seem to pick up the pace.

Endless food placed on the table,
Horses put back in the stable.
All but the tears are gone,
And the lonely silent bone.

Promises and threats went out,
But they all thought he was so stout.
Down by the lonely river bend,
Is where he brought the final end.
Marty Dec 2018
Oh lucious demons
Plastering salacious desires
Enticing the soul
Binding the darkest hour

Twisted sheets
Tangled around my soul
Mocking heavens journey
With demons delight.

Fingertips Salaciously tickling
Tender hearts strings
Pleading for a moments light
Gasping for another breathe

Passion embedded
Tiniest of thoughts
Pondering not mornings light
As the night fades to perfection.
Marty Aug 2021
The evenings deafening silence
Surrendered by the screams
Passionately empty walls
Footprints exploring the halls

Darkness on middays' sun
As the tears rob the fun
Empty souls deeper in the well
Devils journey to a patient hell

Tears hidden by the smiles
Unforgettable tortuous miles
Rest not under the pine tree
To the undiscovered country flee

Fleeting kisses upon the brow
Friendship secretly disavowed
Lonely nights plea
As silence comes to be
Marty Mar 2018
As the day slips unto forgotten, the darkness overtakes the peace. Serenity slowly becomes agony, and love fades with the light. The angels among us return to their homes and the ravens sharpen their claws. Tightly wrapped sheets tangle and confuse the soul. Reluctantly the eyes grow weary, and the battlefield emerges. Each night she returns to tease and taunt. Reminding the heart that the arms hug a vapor. Prancing to and fro, pacing across the heart with thunderous steps, she reminds of us the absence of presence. Without care or remorse the demons pull and pluck the fading memories, leaving an empty soul. That's my wife! Silent screams beg the night, and yearn for mornings light.
Marty Aug 2018
Silence
As an angel falls

From heaven,
Into broken arms
Captured,
With love and immortal embrace

Gentle spirits
Guided by darkness
Now endowed by loves light
Paved roads of the widows sight

Rocking back and forth
As the days sway by
Memories searching for forgiveness
As the dust crumbles beneath

Gentle old hands
Weathered and torn
Anxious for the morning light
As love gathers another day.
Marty Feb 2018
Silence falls upon the screaming voices as the lights grow weary. Tiny beads of sweat paralyzing, vitriolic taunts of the demons dance begin. Puddles form upon the heart, the masquerade covered in the nights blood. Prayers for darkness extend to the fathers tongue. The curse of the mornings light, begs for deaths door. The river follows the burned channel, as agony stains the cheeks. Loves mark, tattoos the memories, and haunts the web. Grasping for something greater than air, loves grip tortures the soul. The light  promenades the corpse to the blinded eyes, as mockery hides the night. Bastille's hold falters not, death awaits before dawn's prize. Happiness squandered with premises of a future. Silence, silence, silence, rocks tumble no more. Padded hope brings a moment's relief.
Marty Feb 2021
The girded ***** of the child,
Blessed by the mothers womb.
Upon the floor left piled,
Forever stranded, eternity's tomb.

Tireless feet across the floor roam,
Back and forth in the night.
Through the satin braids comb,
Praying for mystical sight.

Fear lingers into the sun so bright,
As darkness succumbs to day.
The morning doves take flight,
And the future here to stay.

Memories fade to blur,
As the child fights the crows.
Into the marsh the boats stir,
As the fogs mystery grows.

She takes the wind from the sails,
As the swamp swallows time.
And the wood receives its nails.
Hidden to blinded ears of crime
Marty Mar 2018
So sweet is your name
Gently crossing my tongue
With visions of love

So beautiful are your eyes
The stories they tell
With visions of love

So perfect is your voice
Tempting my heart to fall
With visions of love

So gentle is your touch
Sending tingles down my spine
With visions of love

So amazing are the thoughts
Of you and I dancing alone
With visions of love

Oh but the sweetest of moments
Looking deep onto your eyes
With visions of love

And love and love
And love
If only existed, but time has proved that it doesnt
Marty Jan 2021
From the depths of my heart,
Your trail of tears depart.
Scurrying to the grips of gravity
Devoured beneath the corpse of morality.

Your flowing crimson grips
Steal from the soul, tiny sips
Bequeth the torment of reality
Buried in the pages legality

Where is thy mercy, my queen
As darkness sets another routine
I bow before thy journey,
As the bowles embellish wormy

If and only may I,
Plead with you as you die
Bring me home to peace,
As the rivers begin to cease
Marty Jan 2021
What fools Lie is this?
Perched upon the devils kiss
Passionately hidden so deep
Upon the wicked lips did creep

Mockery of the gilded heart
As the limbs are ripped apart
Breathe by breathe in time
Death shall become the crime

Oh, sultry passion filled lips
From the blackened winds did sip
As life left the tattered sleeve
The lies only proved to deceive

Let the wind scatter it to and fro
For loves sails have been stowed
No story to be told
Never again shall he be bold
Marty Jul 2018
Blood stained cards
And
Crispy brown rose petals
Line the floor of the morbid crypt

Picture perfect memories
Tile the path
With the evenings hell
Wound around forgotten promises.

Crimson soaked tools
Marks left in the Angel's wings.
Death
And imprisonment await.

Prayers and pleas
Resentment for the mornings light.
Rivers of torment
Dreamers swim for shore

Curse the day
And
Torch the night owl
Hell soothes the soul with fire.

Happiness found
At the razors edge
Perched upon deaths sword
Mortal rivers drown the smile
Marty Apr 2018
As the ricochet of your pain has castrated the wind from my lungs, my lips parched and blue beg and gasp. Darkness encroaches and the beasts perch upon my chest. Rivers toppling the rocks in desperate pleas for life. Demons devouring daylights solitude with angry howls and invisible fangs. The Devils nefarious orchestra warming for a perilous journey. Daylight brings not the peace for fear lingers on. Oh but for a moments blink, a tiny draw through the cracks in the claws. Even if only to wet the lips with taste of air. Greed ask not for a breathe just cries and cries for the remembrance of fresh air. Oh but your love has so tainted the Devine equity that filled the lungs with dreams. Now each breathe tattoos agony and engrained hatred upon the soul. It is not your soul that is hated. Hatred comes for your lack of sympathy. Why did you not drive the dagger deeper into its sheathe. Planned out your torture was, but sweet death you would not give. The voices they can't hear, but understood they well are. Methodic chants of deaths door and the hinges of pain harmonize as they sing a sirens song. Eleven more days till the fiery carriage arrives. Seductive horses tamping an irresistible call. Into the darkness dust they scatter. Silence and happiness are there gift

Be not deceived for love is little more than the devils parody signing a sirens song. Into the dark the soul freely roams. Wayward winds tugging at the delicate strings of the hearts joy. Words and promises come so easy but fail to mean little more than a turned page. Forgotten promises written amongst wasted wood. Falling to the wayside with a tiny breeze love quickly dies. Words and words, lies and lies. The heart knows no difference, only the pain smothered with a trail of tears. Singing a song and whispering dreams in the lonely ears. Deception devours a life of knowledge all in the name of love. Pain soon overtakes as minutes becomes days and days become years but the hand the hand moves not. Tick tock, tick tock.
Marty Jul 2018
Over and over,I searched the house.
Looking in all the drawers.
Searching under the couch
Removing the cushions.

I went through the laundry
And took it all out of the closet.
I looked under all the mats,
And searched all the high shelves.

I searched each room in desperation.
Shed tear after tear knowing all was lost.
I called friends and family
Even looked in the dogs bed.

I had all but given up when I knew
I knew I had one last chance.
So if you would
And if you could

Please tell me where you put the key.
The chain is smothering each breathe.
The lock has become so heavy.
And no one has been able to remove it.

I want so bad to give my heart to others.
But, you hid the key.
Why would you do that to me.
Why cant you let me be free.
Marty Mar 2018
The hands on the clock
Tick tock tick tock
Oh the night the night
Just won't leave without fright

They said the pain
Would erase the pain
So thick is the blood
Faster comes the flood

Still the thoughts the thoughts
Raging questions and afterthoughts
Darker and darker the path
In loves treacherous aftermath

Oh the pain the pain the pain
Left after loves glorious stain
Crimson sheets waiting for love
Answers coming from above

They said it would surely ease
I'm begging and begging please
Deeper and deeper the answer gets
Will they finally listen to my threats

Oh my precious counselor dig
As I take another brave swig
Dig deeper as I make my berth
With my lonely soul upon the earth

Fear not the channels you touch
Angels say it won't hurt too much
Free the rivers and dams
As the thunder slams

Let loves, love free the love
Open wide and shed most of
**** the wind from the sails
In the cross drive the nails

In heaven I will sleep soon
Hopefully before midays noon
Maybe one more path of love
And I will be looking from above
Marty Oct 2018
As the waning sun rises,
The darkness creeps in.
Gathering the wings from the soul,
Smothering the love with foul dirt.

The stench of the mornings dew,
Reminds the heart of imminent hell.
If only the grave would be so kind,
As to smother the dying flame.

Dreams begging for the reality,
The reality of a name left for all time.
Written in stone for all to see.
Left for the birds to perch upon.

Dreams of sleep so sweet.
A dream without the agony of love.
Fairytales dying at the shovels tip.
As the last teardrop falls.

Falter not oh dark shadow,
For your friendship I have accepted.
Let your robe protect my soul,
From the tyranny of love.
Marty Dec 2018
Upon the satin clouds
Rivers of black parch the night.
Rainbows fade into shadows
And the moon becomes caustic

Thirteen moons break the back
As the ground wonders about.
Tiny lakes tell a tale
And the ears hear not

What shall the owl cry?
As the crevices fill with salt
What shall the ravens devour?
As the grass grows green

How shall the pages be turned?
No story for the words to tell.
Will the tree remember the broken branch?
As the leaves fail to grow.

Will the dirt whisper to the stones?
Or shall they scream at the worms?
What shall my name become?
As tomorrow curses today
