Today (RIP Doug)

 

I only heard the news today
Of how you chose to go away
My blood went cold
And I could not cry
My friend of old
Will I ever know why?

I was only told today
Of how you decided not to stay
My mind just fled
And I fought for breath
As I tried to comprehend
Your unforeseen death

 

I only found out today
Of how, alone, you went away
My soul went quiet
But I wanted to scream
Your pain kept private
Why did no-one see?

 

I can only wonder why today

And ponder that you couldn't stay
I wish you'd thought before to try
And let me know, inside you cried
For maybe I could have held you near
Or just been there to share your fear
Or to make you laugh
Or maybe to cry
Or to offer you somewhere safe to lie
Or maybe together sit under a tree
And just for a moment 
Feel free to be

And so now, sadly, I farewell you today
To let you continue on your way
I hope someday we can once again meet
Perhaps one day, up in the sky we will greet 
Until then may your spirit soar high
Your soul free from the pain held in life
For now, know that I love you my friend
And that I cared to the very end 
And please, now and forever
May you always
Rest in Peace

I did not write this, it's just my favorite. :)

 

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul. 

-William Ernest Henley

~ My sis ~

 

Having you as my sis,
means more to me than you'll ever know.
I wouldn't trade you for anything,
I'll never let go.

Although you live far away,
you're still with me in my heart and mind.
So whenever I'm feeling down,
I look back and picture our good times.

As our friendship continues to grow,
so will my love for you.
Just always remember you can talk to me,
I'll be the best friend you ever knew.

YIPPY!!! Never wrote anything that wasn't a love poem, or something about being sad... so was afraid that would look silly.

I am the Shadow

 

 

Little girl lost in the dark
Petted child, struggling without hope
Lost girl, runs into the woods
Do not run in vain, the wolf will eat you.


Innocent lamb playing in a meadow
By his young shepherd was forgotten
Lamb vagabond , do not you astray
Or will we never see again.

Orphan girl wandering aimlessly no
Part of all, back to nothing
Suddenly she screams with fear, terrified
Cree small scream ...
Dementia you have found.

Battered child covered with wounds
His soul consumed by burns
Poor child if undesired
In a coffin will quickly recover .

Kitten abandoned in a dark alley
Forced to kill to survive rats and locusts
Poor animal without family
Die wrapped in rags.

And me, in this story ,
I walk in the dark
Living of these misfortunes and sorrows
nourished by this hatred .

 

I feed on your tears, mortals
And live by the timeless suffering
Woman with soul so dark
Immortals Torments
.

  Mental Cases  

 
Wherefore rock they, purgatorial shadows,

Drooping tongues from jays that slob their relish,

Baring teeth that leer like skulls' teeth wicked?

Stroke on stroke of pain,- but what slow panic,

Gouged these chasms round their fretted sockets?

Ever from their hair and through their hands' palms

Misery swelters. Surely we have perished

Sleeping, and walk hell; but who these hellish?

 

-These are men whose minds the Dead have ravished.

Memory fingers in their hair of murders,

Multitudinous murders they once witnessed.

Wading sloughs of flesh these helpless wander,

Treading blood from lungs that had loved laughter.

Always they must see these things and hear them,

Batter of guns and shatter of flying muscles,

Carnage incomparable, and human squander

Rucked too thick for these men's extrication.

 

Therefore still their eyeballs shrink tormented

Back into their brains, because on their sense

Sunlight seems a blood-smear; night comes blood-black;

Dawn breaks open like a wound that bleeds afresh.

-Thus their heads wear this hilarious, hideous,

Awful falseness of set-smiling corpses.

-Thus their hands are plucking at each other;

Picking at the rope-knouts of their scourging;

Snatching after us who smote them, brother,

Pawing us who dealt them war and madness.

War

 

 

 

Fools, fools, fools,
Your blood is hot today.
It cools
When you are clay,
It joins the very clod
Wherein at last you see
The living God,
The loving God,
Which was your enemy.

           I DONT CARE

 

 

 

i don’t care anymore.
soon i’ll hit the cold hard floor.
i will no longer hope.
all day i just mope.
sooner or later this pain will push me off the edge.
i wont hold on for dear life.
i have become completely numb.
no regrets, go ahead take your bets.
i will win this one.
i don’t regret what i’ve done.
i thought you were the one.
i guess once again i was wrong.
but the music must go on, to our song i will sing along.
you told me you’d never leave, yet another lie.
you should’ve told me right away you’d make me cry.
save me the heartache.
and i should’ve known you’d say goodbye.

Lost without the stars

 

Climbing down I stare to what I shroud,

my feeling escape my grasp as the chains of reality pull down link by link.

When darkest yet and the light sinks,

close your eyes and never forget our eternal likeness will forever glow with the passing of each hardship.

The pain that will last is an illusion of worldly possessions we've never owned.

For we are eternal and only free once our souls leave us without ever knowing who we are.

Looking up for my answer, I find the stars.

 Giving up

 

 

 

Broken again
Sinking fast
Clutching to any memories of the past
Why
Why did you do this if you care so much about me
Everybody says they really care
Lies
I don't believe them anymore
Tired of falling for their lies just to end up hurt
Heartbroken
Tired of crying while everyone else is smiling
Tired of piecing myself back together with a smile as if i'm not hurting
I'm through
No more
I can't take it anymore
I wont take it anymore
I give up
You win
I don't care anymore

Judging Eyes

 

"Happiness comes from within
Forget these judging eyes of sin
Just be yourself, become in sync
Regardless of what others might think
Because you can't please everybody
That just isn't real
Put your focus on you, how do you feel?
Don't believe me? go ahead and try it
Put a smile on face A, and face B won't deny it
What they "heard" about face A
And you'll see it begin
Staring into you again
Judging eyes of sin
Reading your cover
All they do is spread gossip about one another
Big Cities, small towns it's all the same
Put blame to the name of another
To hide their own shame
Everyone's done it
At least once or twice
Whether you bark like the dogs or you squeak like the mice
People WILL talk, but don't mind them at all
Keep your head up, and keep walking tall
Because as you grow old, and life's end becomes nearer
You'll realize the only judging eyes
Are the ones in the mirror"

 HATE IN YOU

 

 

 

 

 

I hate you like the fire hates the rain

I hate you like the whore hates the shame

I hate you like the priest hates the sin

 

 

 

I hate you like the snake hates its skin

 

I hate you like the teen-mom hates her child

I hate you like the smoker hates his milds

I hate you like the father hates his failure

I hate you like the inmate hates his jailor

I hate you like the woman hates her period

 

I hate you like the non-believer hates the sacred

 

 

I hate you like the forest hates the fire

 

 

 

I hate you like the rapist hates his desire

 

 

 

 

I hate you like the ocean hates the storm

I hate you like the child who hates to be born

 

I hate you like the hungry hate their lives

 

 

I hate you like the skin hates the knife

 

 

 

I hate you like the devil hates the above

 

I hate you like you hate love

"Gratitude"

VNV Nation
 

It is not love, if love is cold to touch.
It is not belief, when there's nothing there to trust.
Could not submit, would never bring myself to heel.
Determination grows, as each truth is revealed.

Torn and repaired, just to endure it all again.
Without a reason, for my place in all this pain.
Though well concealed, the scars they just compound.
Until there´s nothing left of what was my former self.

My god, look at what we are now -
without regret for all the things that we have done.

Thank you for all the doubts, and for all the questioning,
for all the loneliness and for all the suffering.
For all the emptiness, and the scars it left inside.
it inspired in me, an impetus to fight.
For the conviction, for the purpose found along.
For the strength and courage, that in me I've never known.
And if it seems to you, that my words are undeserved,
I write this in gratitude for whatever good it serves.

Sometimes I wish, that you could see me now.
In the rightful place, where I knew that I belonged.
Sometimes I wish, that you might someday understand.
to close the chapter, and lay to rest the past.
But nothing would change, we make the best of what we have.
for we are measured by the actions of our lives.
we bide our time, let the future unfold.
Like immortals, in great legends to be told.

My god, look at what we are now -
without regret for all the things that we have done.

Thank you for all the doubts, and for all the questioning,
for all the loneliness and for all the suffering.
For all the emptiness, and the scars it left inside.
it inspired in me, an impetus to fight.

To all who stood with me, when we stood as one.
Thank you for guiding me, for bringing me home.
And if it seems that I'm obliged to say these words,
I write this in gratitude, the least that you deserve.
