Misery         The cold minty breeze of the night Helps me cease the tension I feel in my mind The light that’s coming from the moonlight Keeps my soul calm throughout the night.   The empty feeling that lingers in my heart Is slowly ripping my refuge apart It seems like I always wanted to do was cry But I can’t help my soul no matter how I try.   These kind of feelings are pushing my senses away And you’re the only one...

There is only darknessWhere all others hide their souls,A gravity so uglyWhere the air is rank and noisomeAnd the darkling ghosts hide screamingIn the humming, chasmic voidWhere she hides forgotten secretsIn the place she finds no floor.There are chains wrapped tight around herWhere vainglory's efforts fellIn existence ever futileWhen her life is reeking sicklyWhere the stink of rotting fettersDig in flesh so fat and weak...

It had taken some time for Alex to assess his situation after Arakne disappeared. Of the multitude of supplies he had started out with, only his bag, a few changes of clothes and an empty water sack remained. Even the gold he'd hidden within a pocket on the inside of his shirt was gone. That damn witch, he cursed silently. It was going to be a long walk, especially without knowing where in the forest he was. Alex sighed a...

I don't want to hear it.All about how you became this way, Or any way at all. Face all the facts. It was your decision to make your life hell,And now you fall. But don't you tell me such a whiny story. I don't want to hear it, 'cause... Take away the drugs. Take away the booze.Take away the pain that's in the news. Take away the screaming. Take a way the fighting.What is left but peace in this big blue sky? I just want to...

If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Face in the shadowsWhere eyes burn black candlesAnd wax in the waterHas armoured the lips,A soul freezes hellWith the loneliness cruel,And the silence is lostWhere the knife of noise slips.The buzz and the humOf the jostling friendsWho are not friends in truth,Nor are saviours of peace,Are a salve to the guiltyWho hide all their...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Where grace and evilMeet the screaming stars,Lamplight in dragonlightEchoes matchless lost dreamsAnd are torn apart in raging squalls.Twisting vines of sweet decayAre wreathed around this ugly neckAnd thorns of bitterness so blackStab down and rip teeth through her throat.Break the night and cull the heart,Or writhe the scoffing...

As I sit at the table and drink the hot coffee My lips feel the burn The heat going down my throat Brings tears to my eyes I let the tears flow freely Smiling I seem to feel the heat going throughout my body Into my soul My mind is screaming But no sounds are heard My heart is pounding But no one knows The power of hurt that is within Shaking and looking around I say if someone is watching and listening to me Ohhhh the co...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Peach perfect moon in an apricot sky,There are footsteps in the stardustWhere the diamonds of the sunCause a waterfall of velvet heatAnd shining shards of opal tearsTo stream on the horizon onThe edge of nightfall's waningWhere the dank abyss is hiding'Neath the dusky cotton clouds.Sunshine old and mellowLifts me airborne raised...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Lonely in the night and rain,My heart is lost in bare, cold dreamsThat slide beneath the rotting mulch,Never to be brought to life.Let the shadows sing in pain,Shuddering mists upon the moors;The year fades dark in drifting seasWhere serpents writhe in hidden caves.Paper flowers and candle starsBite the air in darkling smokeWher...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Hand against the cold glass,Condensation runs like tearsDown the outside of my leaden heart.The past is a thunderOf regrets rolling through my time and space,Where blunt winds of despairBuffet against the rocksThat my childhood was smashed upon.These rains cannot growBeauty from the mire,Nor tempests scour the dirt away.The dawn...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Search the starsFor dreams that are lost.Fly upon the backs of carrion crowsAs they batter their ragged wingsAgainst walls of dead airWith gluttonous envy in their eyes.Lay down your ragged breathUpon the iron earthAs it rusts away in the peat bogsAnd raises the stink ofIdeas in decay.Pluck your visions from theEntrails of sinAn...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.Here is my fence, and here's where I sit;There are two sides I see, and I feel like a twit.There is no middle place that is both safe and sound;Rather, both sides pull my legs 'til I fall to the ground.Up here, I can see many points of strong view,And sometimes it's easy to know what to do.But others, it seems like I can't find...

This poem only available on Stories Space. If you are reading it elsewhere, it has been stolen.It's always today, but it's never tomorrow;It's never a given, it's always a borrow.There is always a moment when you say, "Not right now..."And to make it forever wasn't worth it, somehow.It's always a minute, or a day, sometimes hours;Then you pick up your bags and lay funeral flowers.It's always for now, whilst you've got tim...

The words were not malicious that is what gave them their power... the power to bruise, to bloody, to maim beyond reason. Unreasoning hurt delivered by accident, by thoughtlessness, by you. Drowning waves deconstruct my sandcastle self built with care and hope and the wet sludge of a lie believed. Revealing the falseness of hope that I might be enough, be desirable, be one who belongs. But I am who I have always been. Jus...

To thisAnd to what my heart longs forI strive to assemble some semblance of emotionSo I might resemble those identical individualsAnd shine with a smile of my ownTo set me apart from the restAnd wake me from this dreamThe very same glass house I wish I could shatterAnd feel the shards cut away my fleshAs I stand gazing upward to the heavensStars aboveI'm praying for your loveThe coldness of space and tears I knowWill neve...
