I walked the streets I called by homeBut all I did was truly roamWithout a cause or a hopeI pleaded until I could not cope Finding nothing as I grieveThis world is just as lost as meLying about who I really amThis mask could not disguise the sham Buried in a grave I cast asideThisContinue reading “Self”

New Human
Story time is here again. This week I’ve got a short story (roughly 13800 words) that is set after the apocalypse and involves a group of augmented humans who are revered as Gods by what is left of humanity. Enjoy! The four Olympians, technologically enhanced and augmented humans, stand within one of the vast spacesContinue reading “New Human”
Night
Is the darkness what you really fear?As the sun drops below to disappearThe night sky blooms like deathPinpricks burst from nothingnessScattered across the inky blackAre you scared the sun won’t be coming back?As the moon sails across the voidShadows are all you should avoidBeauty in the dark of nightShouldn’t let it give you frightCast wideContinue reading “Night”
Ashen Trees
Trapped on a feeling that leaves you reelingWhere are the crows that define your meaning? As thorns of red dive deeper into the oceanSeas begin to start to boil with feeling Last among the endless ashen treesShattered realities breed only disease The sutble stab of who you should beWill you ever get to grip thatContinue reading “Ashen Trees”
From Present To Past
Humanity will fade awaySwallowed by its entropyBecause we couldn’t stay togetherInstead we fractured unlike weatherTorn apart instead of stayed strongOh what a tragic wrongSo soon we will just rot awayLost to times natural decaySo much promise that we did sullyIf only we would have tried more fullyBut that was never on the cardsIs what wouldContinue reading “From Present To Past”

I had hoped to make the main character darker, but I don’t think I quiteContinue reading “Hunter”

More posts this week!
As the title says there will be more posts this week. In fact, there will be a new post Monday through Friday. All days, except Wednesday, will be poems. Tuesday’s and Thursday’s are the rest of those I wrote last week. Hence why I’m posting them!
Iced Over
The frost crawls across your heartNever will you admit your darkCold to your very coreAs you murder and abhor Skin like ice that burns to touchYou became the murderousShattering hearts as you passFatal attraction killing fast Ice blue eyes that pierce throughWhatever happened to the real youTurned your back and becameAn icy figure of hateContinue reading “Iced Over”
