It’s the devil

It’s the devil
By: Nix

Pointing to the cracks
And all that we lack.
It crows out a dark laugh
Cutting one in half
The red slash taunting
No,
It’s not daunting?

Why do they smile at us?
When all we do is fuss
all of them– they're the same
Crying wolf–
We–
we are to blame

Dolling up,
as if it wasn’t
Mucked-up
But of course
the facade must stay
After all—
We wouldn’t want to stray.

Premium Member Eye of Darkness

In the soul's darkness
An eagerness is thriving
Living on life,love, ambition 
Empty its dwelling depths 
Eye of Darkness, light is hope 

A heart yarning,lost,daze 
Pain felt in its mist 
A love far away as moon 
Star twinkle in her eyes 
Stranger has awaken the beast 

Her heart, emotions felt 
A darkness larking there 
The essence of bitter sweet 
Crying wolf, crying love me 
Saying pleasure my desires

Poison onion rings
                                                Bunion on a sling
                                              Rustic carriage bolts
                                        Shoe string eating antelopes
                                         Cankered bison crying wolf
                                   While dancing under the heated son
                                      No one comes this is the dawn

Premium Member Burn The Bridges

Mend white fences until you see
Harm in lies neglect denim deceit 
As one crying wolf in dark night surprise 
Is beast in sheep clothing evil disguise 

I tend to lend empathetic emerald ear
Until there’s a reason for caution fear
Narcissistic people cause much pain
Drop them they’re toxic as acid rain

Then burn those bridges fire red
Don’t forget they get in your head
With twisted hearts and black greed
Don’t be a victim instead break free
