I am mysterious yet sweet
I wonder what the future brings
I hear wolves singing to the moon
I see diamonds swimming in a black sea above me as I lay in the grass.
I want people to understand me completely

I am random yet shy
I pretend I am always going on new adventures
I feel misunderstood
I touch shards of my past, remembering them
I worry that I won't find someone who can view things the way I do

I am courageous yet cunning
I cry because the blames fall on me
I understand people's problems
I say witty things that persuade people
I dream of an absolution & life of adventure
I try to fit in but it's just so boring
I hope to travel around the world making more friends along the way.

I am all that I am, I am all of me

The Cure



Good and evil
Love and hate

The balances of life
Makes everything flow just right
Until misery takes control of your world...

Misery is a parasite
Feeds off other's to become stronger
It hunts for those who are happy
Only to bite and infect them
With it's disease

It penetrates deep into your mind
Death and despair flood the thoughts
The virus spreads further...to your soul

You are sick with misery
Contagious
You don't want to infect
Forced into isolation
A weak body and a weak mind
There is no cure for you to find

Until the day comes when an antidote called Love
Finds it's way inside
And kills the virus

But cures are hard to find
Like any love is...

my heart beats clear and frees me
to see, feel, hear, touch and taste
your eyes, your lips, your hands
you are everywhere

a touch, soft and tender
a whisper, full of desire
a gasp of sweet surrender
as passion fuels the fire

and though we still have far to go
that's alright, we'll take it slow
and though the days are often long
with you here I can be strong

there's no time in life to judge
only time enough for love
so as another night slips by
let’s dance beneath the sky

in our secret garden
love took power over our will
progressively, gently, tenderly, lover to lover

love, you’re all I ever needed
and I want you now. now being forever.

this is my eternal vow.

i walk up and stand
listening to the soft sobs around me
some are my own
i see you there helpless and white
there is sadness and pain in your eyes
i wonder if its from the ropes around your arms
or if its for what is to come
as they come up they bring your demise
the blade comes down i turn and run
when i hear you scream i stop
my poor dark lovely angle

soft breezes of comfort
spiral around me and lift my hair
i begin to stumble blindly down the path
picking up a dark feather that has fallen at my feet, imell the harsh sent of death and blood
it mixes with the soil of the earth
i feel water as i taste salt...

1 When I see you I know life was made for living.
2 When I see you I don’t want to die.
3 When I don’t see you I sleep and dream about you.
4 It’s the truth I am telling poets don’t lie.
5 Sometimes I think I can’t survive with out you.
6 Sometimes I think I want to give it all up.
7 Everything.
8 Everything but you.
9 When I see you I know life is about sharing.
10 When I see you I know why caged birds sing.
11 When I see you I know why it is I am caring.
12 About love, life, and every living thing.
13 And now that we are in this space together.
14 I really want this to last forever.

A silver glint in your eyes; heartbeats clean.
A simple chord enrages me; warm smiles.
The melody plays slow; performed quite keen.
I stop midway, but memory redials.

The octave jumps to brilliance; intense.
They love attention and thought; quarter notes.
Continuous trills and glissandos; dense.
Already chosen hum no other votes.

To accidentals for wit; humor dark.
Yet, the more necessary; balance sweet.
Some kindness with speed; held out at the hark.
Released the pedal to kill the soft beat.

All are strong to my heart’s will; every song.
The echoes beneath that for which I long.
Angels and demons were circling above me
through the thorns to the stars
The only one who doesn't know happiness
is the one who couldn't understand its call

I am Calling Calling now, Spirits rise and falling
To stay myself longer...
Calling Calling, in the depth of longing
To stay myself longer...

Stand alone... Where was life when it had a meaning...
Stand alone... Nothing's real anymore and...

...Endless run...
While I'm alive, I can try not to fall while flying,
Not to forget how to dream... how to love
...Endless run...

Calling Calling, For the place of knowing
There's more that what can be linked
Calling Calling, Never will I look away
For what life has left for me
Yearning Yearning, for what's left of loving

To stay myself longer...
Calling Calling now, Spirits rise and falling
To stay myself longer...
Calling Calling, in the depth of longing
To stay myself longer.......

Fearless heart beats
in my chest,
strong and proud,
sensitive and fragile.



Collecting all these words
you gave as if
those are significant,
but your heart has never
spoken to me.



Empty words you gave,
the depth that lies in them
you treaded,
though I still remember that
glow in your eyes,
I still remember,
though your false love
is spreading its wings
only in dreams of my own
world.



It was me who left,
and yet
I'm still trying to forget,
still trying to erase every
moment of happiness
we lived.
And my heart is not weak,
even though it's lonely,
loneliness itself doesn't fear me,
for it loves me,
loneliness chose me.



Loneliness is jealous,
won't leave me be,
loneliness is in love
with me,
filled within my heart,
it has chosen me.

I do not belong.
They do not see.
They can not feel the pain.
The pain of being alone.
Unloved.
I am dead to this hateful world.


All I ever wanted was love.
Happiness.
To have someone hold me.
Tell me they love me,
Someone I can trust.
Someone who will never let go.


All I see.
All I feel.
Is this hateful world.
Full of people who lie.
And use you.
They hate and most do not know why.
They think hurting people and the people they love makes them stronger.
It might.
But it hurts us real bad.

I do not belong here.
I am not apart of this world.
I do not feel what others feel.
I do not see what others see.


I am full of love....

i was only seven
you left to quickly
and im still in pain
i miss u
i miss ur voice
i miss those days
talking to u was always a good choice

u were always so full of life
full of love and happiness
warmth and safety
you were full of war and history
so many story's
i wish u were still here
i know that selfish
but it fills so empty
without u here

i still think of you
day and night
i still see ur face
hear your voice
inside my mind
and no matter what
i know that i will always love you
but i also know
that no matter what
when i think about that day
i know that the pain will never go away
until i am able to see you again

if...

Slowly they creep up
They're hungry
Teir mom did it to their dad
That cold-blooded murderer

The baby black widows attack
slowly devouring their mom
They, too, became like her
Heaetless, an emotionless killer

An analogy to life
To humanity
Everyone MUST have revenge

Never letting things die
untill we die!


Why must we live like spiders
Devouring people when we're done with them?

Why must we be so uick to attack?
Why do we live life like this?

Because we're human,
But we still live like spiders

Killing, and dying and hating
When we should Live and Love and Laugh

Is this really life?
