In a dream,
I was a creature of earthen make.
Spiraling downward from the storm
A light filled angel left behind.
He left me to fend off the daemons,
The vampires who so willingly
Would whisk me away
To a neon garden paradise.
In the gardens I would play,
Hide and seek with the snakes,
Only to find
That I could never be found.
The storm still rages
Raining down sheets of crystal and ice
Those earthen eyes of the angel,
So dark, yet so bright,
Keep me up at night.
They bring in the darkness
The vacant space
That before was filled
With rainbows and crystalline light.
His ghostly figure
Arms spread wide,
Hide in

She got what she deserved...
My mind was corrupted by malicious jealousy;
drowned in regret, and tormented by her ecstasy.
Bitter I was, filled with pure anguish and hate,
disgusted and tortured by our analogous trait.
Lividness was ripping and wrenching at my soul;
abhorrent at the horde of lies she'd told to make you whole.
Brutally suffering in agony and despair,
I viciously sliced with envy, knowing regret he and I would share.
How mistaken and selfish I was to utilise myself,
thinking my grief was damage to him, and not anyone else.
Anxiety and tears filled the eyes of those so dear,
but they never tried to stop the pain, even though it was my fear.

An Aging Disapointment
I am a manipulative tool, egos I keep fed,
Cause and affect, role models said,
I have a bag without a bottom,
And, claim that no child will be forgotten,
That regardless of age, skin colour or sex,
All will be welcomed to welcome the next,
Cops and robbers, one child looks at the fun,
The other; has a different motive for the plastic gun,
A crying daughter laying on a foundation of maybe,
Feeling satisfied feeding pretend food to her pretend baby,
The child of torn clothes and growing dust,
Stares at a child in a suit, a growing lust,
The child dealing with the death of their dad,
I realise, nothing I give will overcome the sad,
If I hugged you,
would you never let go?
If I kissed you,
would you cherish that moment?
If I reached for your hand,
would you take mine gently?
If I needed a shoulder,
would you let me cry on yours?
If I needed to talk,
would you really listen?
If I needed to scream,
would you do it with me?
If I needed to go,
would you come with me?
If I fell for you,
would you catch me?
or just let me hit the pavement?
See the dogs cry and the foxes frown,
as people die when bombs fall down,
while kings and queens fly off with their crowns,
looking down proudly at their destroyed towns.
So they're getting lots of success,
like eagles picking on your flesh.
Executing citizens just to impress,
while when everthing goes wrong they won't confess.
Who gave them the power to rule?
You idiots, can't you see that you've been fooled?
God didn't bless them, religion's just a tool!
Or do you really think that God wants them to be cruel?
Let's take care of this mess once and for all,
because they toyed with us for too long.

Facebook
It's a social network site
Random people you've never met friend request you
You think, 'why not' and hit the accept button
You never talk
You never associate
Then one day
All because of a status
You end up talking
And texting
Meeting in person
But only saying two words to each other
Hanging out and forming an elite group
Hanging out again and giving the stars new meaning
Giving everything new meaning
Its been almost three months now
I don't think I've ever been happier
And just think
It all started with a friend request
Look in the mirror..
Look at who you see
I see me staring back at me
Look at your eyes
Look at what you hide inside
I see experience and wisdom
I see hope and faith
I see truth and trust
I see heart and compassion
I see me
Why do you need anyone else?
You're good enough, strong enough
Don't look to the outside, look within
Find who you really are and never let it die
Sometimes it's ok to cry
But pick yourself back up
Remember you are strong enough
I am strong enough
I am good enough
I am
why won't you let me take you ?
I know it's wrong,
but I've come so far
and bled my soul before you
the air is sweet with your beauty;
I can feel you consent with a kiss
no other is here
it's only us,
no sin between;
nothing but a pure love
please
I beg of you
... please
I am open before you
with all my truth and honesty and heart
one may fight such mighty urges,
but by all the gods in heaven
you are all I need
and I can't let you go,
for if I do
I must live with the dreadful shame
that part of me is lost forever
and neither one of us would be complete
