George Garner Poem
A labyrinth of moments, cruel twist of fate. When did our love turn to spite, my friends turn to snakes? I've believed in too much, let down by too many. Now I can’t even believe in myself, I’m so cold, so empty. For a moment of your love did I open my veins. Only to receive nothing , darkness and pain. The smile on my face turned to a cold stare of shame. In this labyrinth of moments this one the most true… where I lost myself, in the search to find you.

George Garner Poem
Dawn has finally arrived, defeating of the night. Shadows were consuming me, when I was saved by morning light. Darkness though does plague me, a true cancer at my core. Gnawing at my spirit, diminishing it’s source. Though be the same my daytime hours, my foes change and now take shape. Of many forms in the world around me, of strangers met along the way. Of friend's invited to my table, the place in which to feast. Only to become, the thing the others eat.

George Garner Poem
Lost am I here, in this shrouded mist. Silent as it engulfs and consumes wholly all things. A devourer... devouring, unbridled destruction layed siege to all things. All that ever was sacred, all that ever will be, itself offered these offerings. Be ever still and silent, try not to breathe, let this reaper pass now over me. Screams of pain so silent, taste of pain so sweet. Like a fool falls for his own foolery. Storm in the distance, though it's rains come swift, bruiding and building inside this cold dark rift. A fleeting gleam of the now fading light, as darkness gives birth to an eternal night. Hold now my breath, close now my eyes. Futile my efforts to struggle or fight. I shudder at the thought, wriggle in pain. My resistance mocked, no ground do I gain. Just as the sands forever erased by the sea's... remains only traces of echo's and agony.
