Deaths Love

Deaths Love

The story of love that was never supposed to unfold
Is the saddest story to ever behold
For Death was never suppose to love
But their was an angel above

Her angel lips was a sight Death desired
But would never acquire
She was so beautiful that the sky lit up around her
Deaths day would go by in a blur

Soon Deaths job was forgotten
Which left no one to rotten
Death would wait forever just to be with his angel
Though the love would be fatal

After no one died for a year the angel confronted Death
Death had to take a large breath
Then he told the angel about how he loved her
She told him that the love would never exist and to forget them together

Saddened Death began to murder
All the innocent which lead to him becoming a monster
The angel he loved was the only one who could save him
Which lead to the angel to sit on a broken limb

Now Death was left without a head
The angel was kicked out of Heaven and left on a deathbed
And when she was close to dying she could hear Death cry
Which she could only say goodbye

And as she took one final breath
Death realized he was the one to cause her death
So he said goodbye to the world and he could only decide
To commit the worse crime that was suicide

The Graveyard

The Graveyard

Into the graveyard is where I went to
Vile sights of people lied askew
Sights so gruesome it must have been untrue
Blood sprayed and guts hanged, people were slayed

No cops to see only my eyes were to see
No tears to shed as i stood in that spot
Then my mind fades into an abyss
Nothingness but then a single gun shot

A single fire finally I am dead
However I was a main part in that gore
Another body only to bled out
A scene that is filled with only horror

The same show replays over in my head
Some fun, I did not want to end up dead.

Holding Back Tears

The story of love that was never supposed to unfold
Is the saddest story to ever behold
For Death was never suppose to love
But their was an angel above
Her angel lips was a sight Death desired
But would never acquire
She was so beautiful that the sky lit up around her
Deaths day would go by in a blur
Soon Deaths job was forgotten
Which left no one to rotten
Death would wait forever just to be with his angel
Though the love would be fatal
After no one died for a year the angel confronted Death
Death had to take a large breath
Then he told the angel about how he loved her
She told him that the love would never exist and to forget them together
Saddened Death began to murder
All the innocent which lead to him becoming a monster
The angel he loved was the only one who could save him
Which lead to the angel to sit on a broken limb
Now Death was left without a head
The angel was kicked out of Heaven and left on a deathbed
And when she was close to dying she could hear Death cry
Which she could only say goodbye
And as she took one final breath
Death realized he was the one to cause her death
So he said goodbye to the world and he could only decide
To commit the worse crime that was suicide

True Love

True loves kiss
Is one that you cannot miss
What no one tells any though, is it’s just a lie
And will always end with one saying bye
Then comes the pain
That will only bring the rain
Suicide is not an option 
But it does come with caution 
Life is now just a blur
That goes in a whirl
What happened to your I’ll love you forever
I found out that it was never
You stopped loving me
And it wasn’t meant to be 
Through the tears I cry
My soul will slowly die
I was left with only memories 
Which will haunt me for centuries 
Nothing was ever real
And you thought it was no big deal
But now I walk as a living corpse 
I thought we had sparks
Marriage was just a play in your deck
But it tore me apart like a wreck
Now you only say I’m not coming back
And our love will only be a flashback 
My heart is in shambles 
It is to much to handle
You don’t care though
So I’m the only one that will woe
I kiss you one last time
For what will be left of my lifetime

Bliss Turns To Sorrow

Bliss 
          Everlasting, Boundless 
     Cheerful, Delighted, Laughing
    Rainbows, Family, Shame, Loss
    Longing, Hurting, Remembering 
              Miserable, Lonely
                      Sorrow

One Last Single Breath

With every breath I take
It makes my poor little broken heart ache
Your heart of ice left mine froze 
And my broken heart now shows
My very breaths are to much to handle
You are just a heart vandal 
Why did you choose me
Why couldn’t you just let me be
Now my breathing has slowed
My breath flowed
Out of my lung
I was so young 
And now I show my broken heart 
Which I never wanted to start 
A single last breath 
I have met my death
My soul left my heart 
And my body and soul now depart 
My breath was what kept me from being the walking dead 
It was something that I had always dread
So now I must say goodbye 
After my breath cried out one final time, and I could feel it die
I reached for the sky 
For I could only try to figure out Why?

A Lovely Fall Beginning

Cool crisp air blows wildly 

The cool air causing shivers to run down those who are brave enough to venture out into the cold

From afar the crunching of freshly fallen leaves can be heard 

Some purposely being jumped on just to hear the raspy sound ring out 

The laughter of young and older children can be heard,  while tears of joy run out their eyes from how hard they laugh while jumping into piles of colorful leaves 

Even though the beautiful red, orange and yellow leaves had just been raked together into a large pile

Parents watched in amusement, almost tempted enough to join their young ones in their play 

Orange, yellow and white pumpkins with a multitude of carvings are neatly arranged on creaky wooden stairs 

Some are positioned by the smallest on the lowest step slowly making their way up to the tallest on the top of the staircase 

Then others were just laid out neatly but randomly none-the-less As for how the pumpkins looked was a whole multitude of different designs 

Some designs showed simplicity while others could clearly show the amount of effort put into the delicate composition of the art carved into the pumpkin

Many have scary faces carved in,  but some have cats, and others bats and other alternative Halloween themed carvings  

Ah, yes with all these stunning features that are in such an explicit manner 

It is clear that the lovely and beautiful fall season has finally arrived 

And all the extravagant beauty of fall is shown everywhere to be admired by

The Blackest Nights

Night 
Pitch Black
The Dark Falls
The Joy Of Black
A Night Of Pitch Black
Dark Nights That Have No Moon 
I Want It All To Be Black
So Paint It All Black 
A Black Night Blooms
When night falls 
Stay Dark
 Black

Snow In the Wind

Cold
               Jack Frost
          Snow Flakes Fall 
        A Soft Snow Sparkles
    Sun Shine Melts The Snow
Snow Glistens In The Moon Light
The White Scene Flows With Joy 
    The Wind Swirls Snow Up
       One Lone Snow Drop
          With Such Grace
              Cold Flakes 
                  Snow
