The Gallow Tree
A hanging ropeThe Gallow tree I gaze from it’s heightEyes drawn to eternity. The mysteries, they now sing to me.I can see them, across starlight sea. I see secrets hidden from timeI call them forth. They are now mine. Mine to share. Or mine to hide.Mine forever, if I decide. Continue reading

Beautiful Lie
Memories of the past can come aliveForever here, locked within one’s mind.Hope’s long buried shall never truly die.Look within, they shall always thrive.Yet there they are, dull of dismal surpriseFor in truth, they are nothing but a beautiful Lie Continue reading

Feelings Inside
Burning pain within my chestJust let me lay down. Let me rest.Why do I have to face this test?Surely it’s all a jest.Bitter taste on my tongueBy now it’s surely gone numb.Taste of rage. Taste of bileBitter agony all the while.Yet still I move. Still I smile.Pretend I’m fineHide my mindSo that none my thoughts Continue reading

Red Line
Red line points to love Supposed to be from the stars above But in truth it’s all a lie It comes and leaves with a nasty surprise. We fall so hard, we fall so fast Hoping that it will always last But we know within our mind That love is not ours to find. We Continue reading

Christmas Cheer
Christmas time, Christmas cheer A time for joy as it draws near. Yet it’s also one I fear As the loneliest time of year. Opening presents, pretending to laugh Smile in place, How long must it last? Happiness and joy are given to others To some by family, some by lovers Cheer from all within Continue reading

Gilded Throne
Sitting on a gilded throneCrystal overlaid with boneHorrors are always shownThings best to be left unknown.Terrors creepNightmares shriekMadness council do they keep.Bloody images course in one’s mindTormented thoughts cage and bindAll the fools they can find.Lies are toldSouls are soldAlways those who once were bold.Shrunken now to endless daysThoughts are scrambled insane dazeLeft alone in Continue reading

Plagued
Dreadful darkness plagues one’s soulFilling them with awful woe.Broken promises, shattered dreamsThe world rips and shreds, then demeans.Child’s cries ring in the nightShattered hearts, a dreadful sight.End the suffering end the painNo more should we play this game.Cruelty runs rampant, discord is high.The darkness rules the twilight skyMakes one believe the world should die,Swept away Continue reading

Chaos
The wind blowsAgony grows.Discord has begun to flow.Chaos comes, insanity shows.Try. Fail. A crushing defeat.Makes one feel so weak.Head held high, stare up at the sky.As inside, one begins to dieLife, is a chalice.Perhaps more like q cup of malice.Love, a poison for all.Even the mighty, will always fall. Continue reading

Darkness Comes
Darkness comesThe end has begun.Look on as Hel’s hound starts to run. Thoughts from the pastThings buried in shame.Shine forth at lastThe hearts heavy bane. Just rewards for playing life’s little game. Continue reading

Try Again
Should I hold out my heart, and try again?Or hold it tight, locked safely within? Do I dare to trust, to hope once more?Or hide in terror, battered and forlorn? I trusted once, one who was a friend.To be there till the very end? Promises were made, never to be kept.My mind was broken, and Continue reading
