I don’t usually post on a Thursday. But seeing as I wrote this a few days ago, it relates to current events and there’s already posts for the other four days of the week I thought, why not. Lies, lies, liesWill they ever stop?Or are you too busy just making it up?Twist some words toContinue reading “Lies, Lies, Lies”

Self
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”
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”

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”

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”
Empty Words
Hey everyone! I don’t usually post on a Thursday or introduce poems that I post for that matter. But on this occasion I am as I wrote this and felt that it was appropriate to post sooner rather than later due to its content. Also this is the first of two posts today. Your systemContinue reading “Empty Words”
