Love-Set Destiny

Since the day that we met,
Our destiny had been set.
I have fallen for your heart,
as mine was yours from the start.

Some say love is not real,
Just because their hearts do not heal.
I used to be one of those people too,
Until the day that I met you.

You have revived my soul,
I am no longer that lonely troll.
Given me a reason for life,
Someday to be my wife.

He Put Himself To Rest

Darkness hems the battlefield
As the fury rages on
With armor, sword, and shield
These soldiers weigh a ton.

They fight for many days
They fight for many nights
And each soldier falls and lays
After fighting for his rights.

There is nothing they can do
But hope they do not die
And maybe make it through
To say their last goodbye.

This war will never end
Until only one man stands
Losing his best friend
With blood upon his hands.

When the tragic war is  done
And the hatred has been ceased
One man stands alone
Prevailing like a beast.

Wandering down the field
Among all the fallen knights
With armor, sword, and shield
Blood-stained by the fights.

This hero wonders why
A battle can begin
When everyone would die
Leaving no man to win.

After all this thought
After losing every friend
Death is what he sought
From the loss he could not mend.

In his hand he took his sword
And pushed it through his chest
And without another word
He put himself to rest.

Hell's Destiny

I sit here thinking of the past,
and I'm glad it didn't last.
Here the shadows  come,
coming to take me home.
home to the depths of hell,
where I belong and where I fell.
The fire consumes me,
destroys who I used to be.
Now I am nothing but hatred,
and you are all fated,
to burn with me in the great lava sea.
don't deny it u know it has to be,
it is your destiny.
So come forth and take your turn,
It is your turn to burn!!!

Vampire's Life

Standing in the doorway I see the faces of the dead
The corpses of the past , oh how they bring me dread
Bringing back to me unwanted memories
Of all the chaos I have spread.

Sometimes I have dreams that none of  it was real
But when I awake I yearn for one more meal
I try so hard to  spare just one innocent life
But it doesn't matter for I cannot break the seal.

I prowl the shadows in the midst of night
A man walks past ,my victim is in sight
I come from the shadows and stalk the man
Very slowly I lean closer, then take a bite.

Suddenly my head and body begin to ache
And then my hands slowly begin to shake
I realize what I have just done…
I have made a grave mistake.

I drop to the ground and stare at the lifeless mass
Dreading my future… remembering the past
And as the sun rises and sets day and night
This horrid way of life will forever last.

Death, My Dream.

Death...it is my calling,
My dream, that I am falling.
In the cold of the night,
Lying on the ground...hell in my sight.
wondering what may be waiting for me,
Waiting for me to see.
Could it be pain?
Will I ever know?
Or will it drive me insane..?
Who knows what is really out there?
It could be full of surprises...or it could be bare.
Oh, the agony of it all...
It's breaking down my wall.
All I want to know is what this world has in store for me,
Who am I supposed to be?
I see nothing in this life,
Nothing, but a struggle and a strife.
What is the point of being here?
There is none...is what I fear.
Death is inevitable
So why even try to overcome it?
Why not just give in, and accept it?
My calling...my dream
"Death," I scream.

Insanity

The sound of silence in the air,
The scent of blood upon the stair.
The darkness creeps through the room,
as the shadows begin to bloom.

louder and louder, the screams are heard,
And the sound of a rasping sword.
for ages this infamy continues,
this haunting torture and abuse.

with all the fear and all the dread,
feeding images to the head.
creating an unstoppable beast,
the demon within...released..

Eating at the heart and the soul,
leaving a terrible toll.
All The agony and the pain,
The soul... has been slain.
