Nightmare

He is a crazed individual
His look dark and so sinister
He grinned as he stared
And shoved the knife into her

He pulled it out slowly
Starts caressing her hair
Her voice muffled she screams
But she is tied to a chair

He plunges it in once more
Her pain is so intense
He has lost all control
Stabbing her again and again

Long after she's dead
He keeps going and going
The husband wakes up
Was knocked out and not knowing

That a killer broke in
And tied them both up
Now he sees his wife there
Dead and covered in blood

The sick man looks over
He stares down his victim
He contemplates on what
He wants to do with him

Now he is exhausted
He killed her with confidence
He can't leave two bodies
The cops can't catch on to this

So he stabs the husband
Clean sraight through the chest
He doused them in gas
Pulled a match from his vest

With one swift motion
Match lights on first strike
He sets them a blaze
And runs off in the night

He goes over the events
That had just taken place
He will never forget
The horrid look on her face

Later that next day
In the mirror he stares
And suddenly it hits him
That was just a nightmare

This poem has gotten mixed reviews. It is not a person nightmare of mine. Complete fictional story I wrote. When I write the pen has a mind of its own. What the end result is, is what I leave on paper. This one gives me chills every time I read it. I had to share it it. Writing should move you it more ways that one. Suspense isn't bad now is it??

Diamond In the Rough

My heart knows what it wants
But to my luck it's off limits 
Beauty I can see and not touch
Obey the sign read and listen

My ever increasing desire
Diamond I want to hold you
There is glass in my way
I must respect not break through

I know this diamond is priceless 
And should be handled with care
If I could put it up on a pedestal 
Something I'd definitely dare

If I had an opportunity just once
If prove I'm the perfect man
Elegant diamond would be displayed
I wpuld take care best i can

I see a very rare value
A beautiful diamond in the rough
I want to fix and fine tune
From being handled to tough 

If I was the lucky handler 
Of this most beautiful gem
I would respect and cherish it
Until my last breathe it gave in

Different Point of Veiw

My perspective is off 
Just a little bit unnerving 
My point of view of things 
I don't think it is working 

I am lost where I'm standing
I feel stuck in transition 
Looking through my eyes
Not understanding the translation 

So I decide to take a seat 
Try a different point of view 
See things at a different level 
A point of view that is new

So here I sat down
Looking at a different angle
My last view of things 
We're blurry and mangled 

This new point of view 
Did not hold all the answers
So I stood back up
With a slightly different manner 

Than I had before I sat 
Or before when I was standing 
But more answers I sought 
New points of views now demanding 

I know what to try next
I must get a different vantage 
Maybe a higher point of view 
There hopefully I can manage

I'll get an understanding 
To what I don't understand 
So I found a tall tree
I'll reach the top if I can 

Look down on my situation
Third point of view attempt
I hope that this will work
Don't need waisted time spent

I have made it to the top
More questions answered here
In this new point of view
All not fully answered I fear

So what to do now
Should I just fill in the blanks
Or improvise what I don't see
Move on and just say thanks 

So I will keep looking
Different points of views I'll try
To find more of the answers
I'll seek out before I die

My ambition to see things
I don't understand in my eyes
I have a need to overcome it 
So I won't be my demise

Nightmare 2

He parks up the street
Then shuts his lights off
Keeps the engine running
Only one thing on his thoughts

He sits silently still
With engine idled and running
He has come up with a plan
He hopes it is cunning

Waits a few moments more
To keep his motor warm
Trying to remember of
He brought the chloroform 

There are two weapons
In his passengers seat
Loaded 44 magnum
A hunting knife in a sheath 

Go in make some noise
Or go in silent take it slow
He reaches for the knife 
This method he'll go

He stares at the house
At the end on the left
It's the moment of truth
He inhales deep takes a breath 

Pop the switch to the trunk 
Few more things to retrieve 
One more time he goes over
The plan he's had now for weeks

He takes both of his hands
Off the steering wheel
Steps out of the car
On the dark street of Gold Reel

He grabs rope and duct tape
He'll go through with his scheme 
The time is now here
He must be smart and be clean

He advances toward the house 
The couple asleep that he hopes 
He stares at the home
His thrill starts to grow

The voices take over 
Telling him there's no turning back
Grabs hold of the door knob
Turns it then hears it unlatch 

He opens it slowly
Steps across the threshold 
Closes the door behind him
Then his control he let's go

A cold sweat he's now in
But this time he's aware
This must be the beginning
To his original nightmare

Insomnia

It's cold and dark
These endless nights
Knowing he's always there
But never in sight

That persistent monster 
I know so well
He is always around
So he never fails

Take pleasure in his
Sick twist of ways
Taking a hit like
A fist to the face

Knocked away from 
The sleep that I need
Fighting the bully
That I cannot see

All I know is
That of his name
Blindsided by insomnia
No warning he came

Let's play this game
What he said to me
Though I always win 
How it's meant to be

You are the prisoner 
I'm the gaurd to your cell
I'll keep you awake
I know your mind so well

So now we walk
Together hand in hand 
Becuase I am the slave
To his crooked plan

This is my new strategy 
Of how I should fight
Cause one day it's my turn 
To sleep a full night

False Advertisement

You can be anyone you want
By your fingertips typin 
All you are doing is
Sailing false advertisement

You can say the right things
Typing confidently to sway 
The reader of your words 
Mess with their minds you play

They fall for everything
You have written in response
Being dragged even deeper
Though that is what you want

Nasty trick you have done
You play with their emotions
You brainwash your readers 
Into giving they're devotion

You have mesmerized them
With your fancy use of words
Leading them into a trap
The planned outcome of yours

But once they meet you in person
I hope they see you had lied
Not tricked by what they read
Transfixed on what you typed

It is easy to be anyone
When you hide behind a mask
Whether it's a computer screen
Or your false story past

Smart people will see through
Straight around your flawed plan
You did not count for them
To see that your a bad man

So keep doing what your doing
It will bite you in the end
You'll be left untrusted
Alone and with no friends

Pirate's Life

The ship has set sail
Through the lighting and thunder
The pirates all ready
For adventure  and plunder

The rain hits the deck
They all sing a chantee 
They raised their sails through
A storm thick they can't see

This does not scare them 
They keep sailing onward
Captain cries out portside
He spotted a flying songbird

With speed we will catch them
They cannot flee from our sight
For the wind is to our backs
To carry us swiftly to fight

The cannons were fired 
They boarded swords drawn
Fight with me lads
You will be rich before long 

They make with quick haist 
Of the ship and the crew
Captain yells good job men
Now let's get the dublooms

Captain looks to the survivor
Said I'll show mercy this day
There is room on my crew 
Sail with me and get paid 

We shall travel near and far
Plunder ship to ship
We shall gets lots of treasure
My crew I'll drink with

Adventure is a pirate's life 
Your my crew and I'm your captain
This ship is our home 
And the sea is our captive

The Mountain

I heard of a tale
Way high in the mountain 
You'll find everlasting youth
If you drink from the fountain 

No one has ever laid eyes 
To say that it exists 
An adventure I'm ready for
To explore and go find it

It's said the path only shows
In the moon's full light
So my journey begins
In the dead of the night

So I start at the base
Gorgeous mountain before me
I am excited to hike 
In fresh air for exploring 

I spot a family of deer
Half way up the mountain 
I lost track of the miles 
Got distracted from countin 

The sun starts to set
As I round the bend
The full moon starts to rise
Light of day at an end

My anticipation it builds
The moon's lit up the path 
My eyes are the first to see it
I don't know how to react

A beautiful waterfall
Way atop on the mountain
I have found it at last
There sits the fountain

So I pull out my cup
Dip it in for a drink
The water is refreshing 
Whipping sweat as I think

Satisfied I have found it
My adventure's worth wile 
Now full of new energy 
My woken inner child

No one will believe me
I'll hear argues and shoutin 
At least I know it's true
I found it on the mountain

Im All Out

I'M ALL OUT OF DREAMS
OBEDIENCE TAKES OVER
YOU ARE THE GENERAL
I AM THE SOLDIER

I'M ALL OUT OF PATIENCE 
I LOOK THROUGHT THE WINDOW
YOU SET THE BAR DOWN 
I'M STUCK IN THIS LIMBO

I'M ALL OUT OF STRENGTH
I'M WEAK AND I'M QUESY
YOU PUSH ON MY CHEST 
GRIP TIGHT CAUSE YOUR SQUEEZING

I'M ALL OUT OF TIME
BUT THE CLOCK KEEPS ON TICKING
I'M LOST BUT NOT FOUND
SINCE OF DIRECTION NOT WITH ME

I'M ALL OUT OF MIND
NO LOGIC OR REASON
YOU TOOK MY COMPASSION 
I'M COLD HEARTED AND FREEZIN

I'M ALL OUT OF WORDS
TO WRITE ON THIS PAPER
I'M ALL OUT OF THOUGTHS 
AND YOU WERE THE TAKER
