procrastinating eyes
What words could I begin to say that would sway you towards my way. do you know that I even exist my heart beats so damn fast yet I must persist. I look at you from a distant glance wishing that one day ill get the chance to show you how I really feel. within this spirit of mine maybe for me one day the sun will shine. so for now ill just sit and wait why do I always procrastinate.

About this poem:
I dont know I guess many times I held back when I should have went for it.
Seeking
Darkness dwells
In sleeping souls
Dead to love
No kindness
Barren and bound
Wings like vultures
Swooping to feast
Upon the dying
Remains of days
Voids of darkness
Hidden lies of hate
Pretenses of show
Flights in coldness
Blackness devouring
Night’s captured prey
Crushed asunder
Buried in deep earth
Candled in shadows
Danced upon the wall
Prisons of fertile minds
Descend into caverns
Of coldness and despair
Looking for naked truths
Repentant yet lost
Stillness creeping
Dig deeper
Seek diligently
Find it deep
Within your heart
Awaken to spirit
Be the light

About this poem:
Just this days emotions.
Without a Trace....
When my lungs no more inhale God's air,
My eyes blind to the soaring bird,
Parched lips have said their final prayer,
All parting grief by me unheard.
Pale hands no longer touch your face,
Limp arms no life to pull you close,
Cold feet can't walk you to the place,
Where we in love, used lie engrossed.
This world so blessed with beauties fair,
How oft' they soaked right through my skin,
Mankind itself made me despair,
And wrenched my gut so deep within.
Burn my remains from this rat race,
Inhumanity plagues this earthly crust,
Gaze on my cinders in disgrace,
Then burn them too until grey dust.
Delete me from this world so curt,
From lifes atrocities I move on,
Erase me from the pain and hurt,
Now burn my dust 'till completely gone !
My eyes blind to the soaring bird,
Parched lips have said their final prayer,
All parting grief by me unheard.
Pale hands no longer touch your face,
Limp arms no life to pull you close,
Cold feet can't walk you to the place,
Where we in love, used lie engrossed.
This world so blessed with beauties fair,
How oft' they soaked right through my skin,
Mankind itself made me despair,
And wrenched my gut so deep within.
Burn my remains from this rat race,
Inhumanity plagues this earthly crust,
Gaze on my cinders in disgrace,
Then burn them too until grey dust.
Delete me from this world so curt,
From lifes atrocities I move on,
Erase me from the pain and hurt,
Now burn my dust 'till completely gone !

About this poem:
When my time comes to depart this life,Inhumanity will be one of the reasons
I won't mind leaving.
In The Dark Woods
The night was dark, much darker than
A night like this should be
Though moon was out and shining bright
It did not reach through the trees
The silence here was absolute
Even the wind was deathly still
No faintest creak of swaying tree
Or rustle from their leaves
No scurrying sound on forest floor
As creatures go about nightly tasks
No hoot of owl from top of trees
It was as if all had died within
The senses slowly become aware
Of a stench most odious and vile
This hateful smell like hands reach out
To grasp all within it's reach
And now a sound to chill to the bone
Of something that was spawned elsewhere
Not part of this planet called 'Earth'
But from deep within the hell of hells
The only chance to escape alive
Is to leave right now before too late
Perchance should you see this thing
Then be dammed to hell for eternity
A night like this should be
Though moon was out and shining bright
It did not reach through the trees
The silence here was absolute
Even the wind was deathly still
No faintest creak of swaying tree
Or rustle from their leaves
No scurrying sound on forest floor
As creatures go about nightly tasks
No hoot of owl from top of trees
It was as if all had died within
The senses slowly become aware
Of a stench most odious and vile
This hateful smell like hands reach out
To grasp all within it's reach
And now a sound to chill to the bone
Of something that was spawned elsewhere
Not part of this planet called 'Earth'
But from deep within the hell of hells
The only chance to escape alive
Is to leave right now before too late
Perchance should you see this thing
Then be dammed to hell for eternity

Atonement
Cleared the fog that was veiled around me
And blurred my sights
Suddenly, I'm no longer aching
To honor my plights
Rising moon and my skin is peeling
Past undone
Suddenly, I can't justify
What I had become
And blurred my sights
Suddenly, I'm no longer aching
To honor my plights
Rising moon and my skin is peeling
Past undone
Suddenly, I can't justify
What I had become

Insomnia
Pale under the moon
through the glass
his limbs still
and soon
before storm clouds pass
over the house and fill
it with darkness she'll slip
in beside him
as into a pool.
Warm ripples will lap
her thighs,brim
her breasts,spool
her close and free
her mind of the trouble
that her kept her late
by the fire,fragrancy
of applewood,to struggle
with her fate
which has always been
to leave what is familiar,
trusted,known,
for the half-seen
shadow world,far
beyond the human zone.

Who are you?
Did you sleep well? ; )

Post CommentGYPSY SOUL
The four corners of the earth; she searches
With bare feet and solitude
The raging fire within her camp
Calls of the wild inside her
A GYPSY SOUL;
She has no hearth to call her own
Just a raven night
Her eyes as diamond black that tells a tale
Wanderer she is; taken solice
Where the wovles cry
Gypsy soul, "Where do you go?"
With a slight determined smile, where I choose
My destiny is my curse, freedom is my love
All is not naught
For there is a place for a creature as I
A GYPSY SOUL;
Where green grass and wildflowers flow
The babbling brook, and weeping willow
Give me rest, nurture
And the blackest of night, comforts
For her destiny is unknown
And her soul is of a gypsy
The moon her lover
Wind moves her, for her journey is forever
GYPSY SOUL
Restless spirit on endless flight
For I go, "Where I choose

new sole
To clean your mortal body
To cleanse your sole
To renew your sole
To breath new
Beginninings
To rid your sole of
Bad omens
To blow
Away
Your no

No more you shall be
To harp the angels sing
A new mortals sole now sings
With god you will drewl
now peace and rejoices
New beginnins beakon
Your new life begins
To cleanse your sole
To renew your sole
To breath new
Beginninings
To rid your sole of
Bad omens
To blow
Away
Your no
666
No more you shall be
To harp the angels sing
A new mortals sole now sings
With god you will drewl
now peace and rejoices
New beginnins beakon
Your new life begins

About this poem:
a twilight love...Have You Ever
Have you ever realised that your life is a piece of shit and you have nothing left like a cannibal running out of soft human flesh or have you ever felt like you have nothing to live for like a 12 year old crack addicted whore or have you felt like cold concrete because people walk over you and you have no heart to beat.
