Premium Member Bastard Child

Like a penny, lost and worthless, woman
mother, and buried within the origin pit, dark
she brought me like a Jezebel into her life of mourning
mistress of the stage and child to horror
born, and off he ran, forced flight my father, loss
the hussy dies but on Edgar lives in awe.

Blood and death and pain feed Poe’s awe.
Why she had done, what soul had she, this woman
leaving him a found fledgling of loss?
“Why, why, bring me into this hellish dark?”
Coal black the pit and pendulum of this zealot father’s horror
the devil’s drink brought penitence and forced, mourning.

“Bastard child!” his stepfather screamed in mourning
as his new Mother looked on in awe.
And, his new brother watched on in horror,
the lash was not spared nor kindness brought by woman.
In the starkness of his mind there was only dark.
Abandoned child, Poe, and his rescuers brought only loss.

“Run, leave, you villains all!” He cried. “There is only loss!”
So on, he wrote into the dark and mourning.
The ink the Prussian blue released the anguish his dark.
Intuition, and superstitious fright will feed him awe.
Cousin, sister, wife, would be his woman
the banshees cry, her bloody death became his horror.

“Alone, alone…” The corbies’s caw brings horror,
but for the devil’s drink, he’s naught but loss........
“Lenore…..” He’ll wall his tainted heart away from woman
and make his blasted soul the start of mourning.
“To hell with you!” He screams at those in awe
of his blank and burned out hulk of dark.

Bricked in or deep within the ripest dark...
“God, so alone……….” He hides in horror,
forlorn, depraved and not at all in awe.
For there is no romance found in loss
no beauteous bounty in the dross of mourning,
no family, friend or wife not tainted, born from woman.

So, Poe lives and dies in awe of the dark. 
Where woman’s deepest depths bring only horror
and loss is all he knows in light of mourning.

Before/After

With belief like religion, pursed lips speak a phrase
with a touch that could hold a cyclone in place
with drama, to consider that the sun shines eternal,
that worlds have no boundaries, and time’s a pest infernal.

A revolution of two martyrs, we could raze the avenue,
exiled to our prison flat to make all the love we wanted to.
Four walls high, that no archer could mount to reach this place
and the realm is ours alone, my Queen of Hearts and Space.

With hair spun of silk and ivory skin, seldom chapped lips of cinnamon
Midas could keep his horde of gold, your touch makes a man of a brute.
Whispered words to haunt my dreams, ever fixed upon you,
my eyes transparent with light reflect the endless blue.

Sickness but a minor detour, health for granted evermore,
Life but a game for two hearts a glow
and Death but a place that we didn’t wish to go.

Solar fragments wrenching open the blinds, my only defense
To protect my unkempt shell, sleepless, devoid of sense.
The walls stripped of color as music stripped of melody
So this must be hell- death would be less of a malady.

Walkways of quicksand tug at my heels-or an older man’s maybe?
And an anvil heart, blacker than coal, is harder than an iron sea.
Five fifty for forgetfulness, a life of grainy videotapes
and two day old Chinese in a box holding the abyss.

Day and night blur in a twisting tempest; everything’s amiss
Every walk is a journey, and every story comes out a rime,
and all is choking, crippled in the sludge of time.
Death is now the savior, may it take me in my sleep,

for in sickness I stay always, in an everlasting weep.
Eyes fogged up like London, cast in shambles- “take a number”-
As our glass silhouettes reflect our hearts torn asunder
Mystified, crucified, Love, why have you forsaken me?

Fate..

The clocks have stopped
Stuttering into mournful silence the second
You stopped talking to me
As if you held time’s brittle thread in your hands
And, like one of the cold-eyed Fates,
Snipped it with a rusted pair of shears
Nonchalant as you please
Like you weren’t just slicing a heart in two
Like I never meant anything to you at all
I envy you your ruthlessness
In the face of death you toss your head and smile
That sweet smile that was once only meant for me
Death is your lover now
I have been forgotten
Thrown out with the trash
Cast off into the world,
A broken down ship with her moorings cut
Drifting on life’s fickle tides
Alone in the grey gloom that has descended over my 
Tear-lit eyes
Like a blind fool I fumble and grope
My flailing fingers searching for your hand in the cold night air
But there’s nothing there
Nothing to hold on to but shards of memory
And broken dreams
And the prospect of my own final sigh
Because Death is your consort and she glares at me
With green-tinged eyes
Remembering that I was yours
And though she will suck you down into her depths
Enfolding you in a warm musty embrace
The fate she has in store for me is darker
Bloody and slow, a torture chamber of
Bitter recollections and lost kisses and broken-hearted tears
Unlike you I will die alone
Stranded on my island in the midst of this timeless sea
My heartbeat slowly fading to black
And the memory of your warmth dwindling from my
Ravaged skin.

I Will

I will kill you with my words
I will articulate it in such a way
That you can not run and you will know
With hints like little saint 

I will make it so you never forget
It will be a wound that you can never heal or close
It will be permeated onto your soul
And it will never let go

It will be deep inside of you 
It will be a poison within your womb
And when you make love it will infect your husband too
Bearing children you will no longer be able to do

The pain you ignited and gave to me 
I will now send back and destroy you
I want to hear you scream
I want your family to suffer

You said if I love 
I should let you go
Well that action created 
a very hateful soul

many do not speak from the demon within themselves 
many do not conjure up the kind of death I can dispel
I will laugh as you cry as the fear of death is near by
And watch as I burn you and your husband alive

I will make it so you never forget
The day you choose this bastered is the day you sold your soul
For he is a drone without a smile 
You said I frightened you back then well I will give you a reason to fear me now

I make you this promise I will haunt you forever
You will come to know by marking me you have sacrificed the tree
I will not be satisfied until I have ripped your heart from your chest
And I can see you take your last dieing breath 

 
(this is possibly that darkest thing I have ever wrote)

Very Sad Story

His love for me's unknown
i am feeling so alone
hes the one i dont want to lose
but im suddenly confused
not a single day goes by
that i dont remember how i
messed things up and brought us shame
now hes suffering in pain
and he will never let me forget
the thing i did that i regret
it will never be how it was
i broke his heart all because
i didnt think about the kiss
it just goes to prove that loose lips sink ships
i learned from my mistake
i know i did wrong
now with every breath i take 
i hope my death wont be too long
it will never be ok
it will never be the same
i know that i will pay
and lose again at this love game
it wont be much longer
untill im struggling alone
how is it supposed to make me stronger
when my heart is made of stone
without him i would be lost
but if thats my only cost
i would wish death upon myself
and end my life and go to hell
then wed both be in pain
and only memories will remain
in peace i will never rest
leaving here is for the best
i dont wanna hurt no more
without him theres nothing to live for.

Last Kiss

My one single death wish
Is to have just one last kiss
You holding me in your arms
Keeps me away from all harm
It is when you are not there
That I feel all this fear
Building up inside
But it comes as no surprise
And I know it all the same
This is real, not a game
I am always in danger
When by my unwelcomed stranger
He comes and knocks on my door
Prepared to settle a score
Between you and i
All he wants to do is make me cry
But then I run away and turn to you
To escape from all things cruel
All you do is hold me in your arms
And I am away from all harm
But I don’t see you all the time
And soon to be said no more
I am now dying
But still not crying
Because my one single death wish
Is to have just one last kiss

I'Ve Lost So Much

I've lost so much 
and I just lost more
What else could I do?
You slit your wrist 
It made me cry
You bled all over my heart

You asked for help
I turned the my cheek,
and now the wieght of your death is on my shoulders
You begged me to listen
And I acted like I didn't hear you
Now you're gone

I've lost so much
And I just lost more
It is my fault you're dead
I should have listened
And now the weight of your death is on my shoulders
I'm sorry

Please know that I am sorry
I will no longer turn away from someone in need
I will lend an ear when needed
I will NOT turn others away 
I've lost so much 
And I've just lost more
and I'm sorry
