watching one you love
fading into something less
tortures your spirit

purified and liquified
lubricates the wheels of my thoughts.
Desires gone wild
tortures my soul with thirst!...

Sinful ruler of hell
Abhored by most
Tortures malefactors of sin
Adored not, but feared
Never ending malicious thoughts...

Puppets

Philosophies 
Of fear
And divine
Retribution
In deaths
Promises
Of never ending
Tortures
Will never
Let you
Enter
heaven...

A quartered moon tortures the chill earth
tempts the night things.  Thinning shadows
glide through the hoary mist, shiver
in a distant fear of Sun's rise.

There's a fairy in my chest
Live's with two crooked knives
In a barbed wire nest.
She loves to play and hide
In the dense and dolorous vines.
And I can get no rest.
As she tortures me at all times....

Not always love again,
brings healing., cure..
I live in laziness
sinecure...
sleeping love,
not forgotten,
love lived
that still tortures me...
It still causes bitterness,
despite so many centuries
past... !...

It
Follows me
With its cold
Breath
And terrifyingly 
Graceful
Flight

It
Haunts me
Contaminates
My thoughts
Seeping
Into 
My heart

My demon
Never leaves
As
It slowly
Tortures me
Into a never ending spiral
Of insanity...

time is precious
as I clasp my hands and weep
your memory is my only companion
as we walk in the deep
each passing day tortures the soul
sadly Goodbye, my love
for the anguish eats away
but I don't want to live
without your memories

Briddeled in your circumstance,
each tortures lost despair.
Empty now through circumstance,
you've plotted your way there.
Trucelent for empty causes,
the smears upon your face.
Never have you searched for wisdom,
Ineptness took its place.
Nincompoop......

each tortures lost despair.

the great storm  (Renku)

the skies unleash Hell 
the trees fall like pick up sticks
mighty man trembles

flee! flee! The news screams
You must evacuate now 
Mighty man trembles

rain, wind tortures land
tides destroy all before it
the sun makes encore...

My heartbeat’s wrath
Pitter pat, pat
When I see the house that
We used to love in.
Now all worn and broken.
The tortures of the used to be’s
And haunting memories
Mangle my mind into mashed potatoes.
Who will know more woes
Than those with brains of mashed potatoes?...

Here’s a flash of infernal news
that will no condemned soul amuse.
Tortures long in practice but antiquated
have now all been newly updated.
The mastermind and torturer? Who else
but the master Dante Alighieri himself
and who well beyond a bungling apprentice
proved he was the master of his practice....

So overwhelmed in my Mind's bleak realm;
A mental dungeon where I am bludgeoned...
I lose control; release the helm-
(I have no strength; can barely function)

Beguiled by trials, my thoughts defiled-
Trying tortures, they compound- compile!
I lament this long torment,
And ponder if the pain's worthwhile...

When words cannot 
comfort
Cannot say enough to 
express self
Totally drowned deep

What do you do?
Had the situation been 
good it excites,
if not it tortures

What do you do?
A cry can best tell
But to itching ears, no 
meaning

What do you do?
Can best do nothing
Empty

The pain of night, where my heart cries
Into the darkness my eyes wander
The pain of night, of being alone
Is oh so real any given night.
The pain of night, how the silence tortures me
My soul, cringing when the lights go out
Oh the pain of night…
Why do we frolic so?
Pain of night… can’t wait til tomorrow!

A thought
Of dreed
A primal fear
Sends a shiver
A quiver
Down the spine
And through
The soul
That makes
The body shake
And quake
A quick glance around
To see
If anyone noticed
The impromptu
Involuntary dance
Of the soul
In your body
That held
It down
That thought
That dreed
Those tortures
Of your
Soul...

She loves him with a burning passion,
From him there is no distraction.

It hurts to be near him,
It hurts when she can't see him.

The feel of his arms never goes away,
The feel of his love is here to stay.

When they are apart,
Their love tortures their hearts.

When they're in each other's arms,
They are safe from all harm....

Power of the word

Poetry gives one more dissatisfaction
than others, and keep only the best line.
The predisposition to lifelong gruffness;
to certain degree nothing but poetry counts.

It's silence more impressive  than their voices,
loves a woman more than any on this world
tortures, sadder than others can be fatuous...

Deliver us from evil
one simple line
one option , one goal
from the begginning of time
deliver from hell
our everlasting soul
deliver our love
from undivine goals
deliver our minds 
from tortures with in
deliver our hearts 
from learning to sin
deliver our bodies
to be raised once again
deliver us to heaven
our world without end...

Tortures the nerve constantly 
Ongoing severe painful throb
Only abstraction is the cure
This pain is worse than labor pain
Horrendous sharp electric shocks,
And advil is just a temporary fix
Can't sleep at all
Hurt all night long
Eating food is not an option

written my last wish in blood
finally came true
my life's been stained by crimson red
at least the tortures through

could only see in black and white
could only feel the pain
forgotten what it meant to love
as i slowly turned insane

you know my actions wont be safe
my pen has turned to knife
as ive written my last wish in blood
to end this hopeless life...
