Sorrow

This vast ocean is streching beyond my horizons

this ocean is a dark storm filled hell

My sorrowful waters contain hordes of demons

waiting to pull me down and drown me within its vast emptiness

This ocean will hide me even from my loving angel

who is seeking to free me from its violent grasp

I must survive this frozen place to be reunited with my angel

for i must protect her fragile heart from this evil place

My sorrowfull ocean is forever stretching

Dementia

When i look at you

my whole body responds

all my love pours out

and makes you all the better

but your beauty creates doubt

and it eats away at me

Causing me to to wonder

if my love is returned

but my love is a wretched thing

making all this pain beautiful

So use me how you will

but please allow me to love you

for you are all i have left

and my dementia will not release me

please dig into me

and make the waves of pleasure come

Lost

I am searching for an answer

to the twisted riddle that is my life

To get closer to my goals

i must traverse a sea of blood

All my past mistakes and demons reside within it

wishing to make me falter so they can drag me down

All the while i am searching this black void of a sky

for any light that escapes my taint

This dark bloody world of mine is streching within me

and drowning all my hope of being found

The Truth

i am alone

for i am the only one who can see

this horrible, tragic truth

but, with enlightenment brings darkness

and for all i see, darkness entwines with me

and fills my soul with its presence

quenching the light till i am almost blind

yet the darkness grants knowledge

the price of this knowledge is slavery

of your body, mind, and soul

so if you dare, you can stand beside me in darkness

for i am alone

Fear

An icy claw digs its way into my heart

freezing it solid with its grip

This cold wave washes through me

stopping all but itself

It immobalizes me with an alien feeling

it whispers its name to me

As darkness descents around me

A sinister voice calls itself

FEAR

Darkness

the darkness is pulling me in

drowning me in misery

tearing my heart into peices

this darkness is destroying my light

tearing away my innocence

and leaving me all alone in this darkness

the seeds of darkness and fear have been planted

rooting into my mind and soul

making me wither till im nothing more
