The Burning Black Dragon

The moon rises to see nothing
Everything empty, with only the wind left
Desolate despair reaches into an eternity
Vanquished 'till death they part in the shadows

The stench of death billows and furls
Suffocating like a blinding fog
Rolling in and out of consciousness
I wander in this desolate I called ''home''

Now I look upon the wasted remains of things once familiar
Love and hatred mix into one
The burning desire to leave and never come back overcomes
Will-power lost inside; buried beneath

The sights I envision are all I have left
Nothing exactly as it used to be
We built upon everlasting sorrow
Making new out of old and discarding the rest

But as I dwell in ancient memories, I stop
Something is missing in the dreams I encounter in sleep
But there, the memory is uncovered in the blackened mist
Now I may lose myself in never-awakening slumber...

Being a Girl

Its really hard to be a girl
You get your heart hurt so easily
You always are waiting
Waiting for the right one
We share gossip about other girls
But get so angry when its about us
We wear our hearts on our sleeves
And cry for no reason at all
We want to be loved
But sometimes we dont love in return
We ask to be treated right
But are so awful to everyone else
That is what being a girl is 
We may not happy about it
But that is the way we were made
That is how God formed us 
And that is how I will always stay

If Looks Could Kill (April Fool's Day)

Pure hatred
Venomous looks

Poisonous voices
Arsenic hearts

Just remember
You don't want to be

My enemy

I'm dangerous
Looks can kill

Stab in the back
Gun hidden

Don't look away
You might miss me

I'm your enemy

So just be aware
I'm hunting you

Witchcraft
Dungeons

I'll find you
Count on it because

It's April Fool's Day!   ;-)

My Grandmother's Masterpiece

My sweet grandmother bakes it
Tangy fruit inside
The crust sprinkled with sugar
Take a great big bite
Sensational taste
Red cherry 
Pie

The Smell Says It All

Springtime fragrances
Beautiful to the senses
The bloom of daisies

Little John

As little John went out to play
On a warm, beautiful, and sunny day
He heard his mother to him say
"I love you, my little John."

And then quite tall her Johnny grew
His graduation cap he threw
She said "My son, I say adieu, 
and I love you, my little John."

He visited her in the town of St. Beth
Around her wrapped the arms of death
She uttered with her final breath
"I love you, my little John..."

Pisces

Pretty
Ingenious mind
Sometimes out of it
Citing famous works
Energy flowing
Systematic thinking

What Is This?!

I am free
Flying restlessly through the skies
But though my heart is willing, my body weakens 
I must stop for a rest of solitude

I land gently in the water
But something isn't right 
The water feels as if it is thickened
The waves crash around me with a different sound

I look down and see my reflection
But the surface is blackened 
It is not the same
And the awful smell wafts to my nose

Yes, something is definitely wrong
But when I unfurl my wings, I stay
My feet are stuck in the water
And I am very confused

I flap my tired wings trying to escape from here
But then they get covered with something
I don't know what it is but it scares me
I am pinned in the place where I used to be free

My minds spins in a frenzied panic
My feet and wings struggle for freedom
I don't want to be here
Then I start sinking and I feel the goo rising up my neck

My eyes boggle with fear
I struggle harder against the pull
But my attempts sink me lower
And I rest my weary body

I try once more to break free of the stuff
But my tries are in vain
So I rest my beak in the nasty water
Waiting for help, and hoping I don't sleep forever...

In the deep of night I slowly lift my tired head
There is a beacon of light shining in my eyes
And when I am gently lifted to safety
I hear those terrible words

Oil spill

Bring On the Pain

Bringing out struggles and hardships
Echoing pain from within myself
Resounding outside my protective walls
Going again and again
Seeking relief from internal struggle
Trying new revenues for my suffering
Desperate for the answer
I turn to things forbidden and hurting
I slowly lose my sanity
As I watch the blood pour from man-made wounds
Leaking out tears and the essence of life
Leaving out pain from all thought
Ignoring the burning will power to start again
Recreating stains of ruby red
Calling for a hopeless world
That only turns their backs
I find the will to end what I started
Finishing my self-inflicted torment
And wishing I could block the pain that escaped from the holes I never thought I'd make...

Where There Is a Will

Where there is a will, there is a way
And I remind myself that this is just the beginning
But being here is keeping my heart in chains
I want to fly away to the place where I know I'm wanted
To the arms that belong to more than just a person
My heart struggles to find the words to scream
It yells in vain because there is no one to hear it
The echoes of silence resound inside my head
As I comprehend that I could be somewhere else...
The knowing of the loss is unbearable
I wait in agony when there is nothing left to do
And I will him to come back for me
Hoping there is something in his heart that draws him
In my arms is where he should be
But there is a troubling and sorrowful doubt 
That placed itself in my brain
What if when he returns he won't want me?
What if he doesn't echo my love?
That is the question, dear friends
So I beg the one who is more than just human to come back
Be my lover and don't present yourself with an opportunity to leave
He says that love is just a word and he wants to say so much more
But if love is a word, what does he really want to say?
It drives me insane hoping that the word he searches for
Is the one I have waited my whole life to hear
But again the nagging doubt in the back of my mind
Whispers conspiracies and plants hopelessness in my heart
And I feel alone in a world where he doesn't exist
He says he will wait for me and I promised the same
But what about the saying
"Promises are made to be broken"?
If that is true, I cannot fathom what life will be like without him
But maybe that's what promises are really for
To gain trust in the one you depend upon
And know that what they say is true and not just another empty lie
Others cannot understand what we do
Being together is what keeps us from falling apart
But some are jealous and won't stand for the "abomination" that we are
But if love is really true, why should they care?
What is it about our business that makes them so interested?
What is it about our love that drives them to insanity to keep from happening?
There is no cure for true and unselfish love
There is no denying it for the world
And when they have the revolution that there is more than meets the eye,
They will leave and never return
Never again bothering us and we can love in peace
And that is the dream I strive for
And that is the dream that will soon be mine
