Soundful Silence

Inside the walls, Screaming aloud, Echos bounce all around, Eons pass, As soul screams, Silence, As dreams drift, Hopes born, Passing into abyss, There alone, Stands I, Surrounded by thought, Countless hours, Of casual eternity, Later, Forever later, Now.

Skeleton Heart Shaped Key

Damn I sit here rage inside my chest, Key, skeleton like, Shapely tool to open my chest wide, Wooden ribs sticking outward, As hand reaches in, Beating heart throbs as the jewel is removed, Treasure thief delving deep within. Riding waves on Jolly Rodger, Chest stored deep within the hold, Skeletons in the closet, Hiding…

Bi-Polar Theater.

Inside the dark walls of my heart I sit, Staring at the thumping walls, Singing to me the emotional turmoil, Mixed over the rocks with tumultuous spirits, Beating for days, Never hitting the correct note.

Speed of Rage

Burning rage fuels the speeding train, Rushing one direction to the end, Racing onward life passing passengers by, Unknown destination only to confuse, Those within riding the rails of whim, Forgiving to forget, While forgetting to live, Hurting inside, Yearning only to discern, The why, how, why, Me? Only today as the steam pours, Onward,…

Life, A Little Less Fun

The term adulting became popular later in my life, this is a soft play on my experiences and how I would describe them as ‘adulting’. A little later on, Lights already on, Writing out hooks, Plotting out crooks, Payments a lot overdue, Landlords pocket wet like dew, A.M. burning the candle at both ends, Working…

I Stood On That Ledge

I stood today on the buildings ledge, Looking into eternity, Down that long fall into nonexistence, Don’t know who I am anymore, Don’t know what to do, Don’t know where to go from here, Looking down that ledge, I see the end, I see the pain wash away, Yet, yet I still hear the call,…

Rag Doll

A short horror story in poem/lyric form. Woke up one day, Quit the job, Walked to the bar, Settled in for the day. Dreams hitting fast, Hardly moving forward, Intense emotions undeserved, Mirrors exploding from past. Feeling stich in hand, Exposed to grit’n’sand, Feeling stich in hand, Exposed to grit’n’sand. Exposed to society, Ripped apart…

Spinning Cycles

Heart and guts on the table, Tears and eyes crying wide shut, Outside thrusts inside, While life spins insanely, Circles turn while cycles repeat, Ultimate sacrifice set before the gods, Insanity run wild as a beast in the field, Tearing through life, Charging at the ones once loved, Anger flows while fear overflows, Tears, tons…

Walking Memories of Despair

In the darkness my thoughts gathered, Tides pushed aside by gravitational forces, Moonlight pushing against them, Forces gathering inside, amused at the plight, Inside the torment slowly gathered stregnth, Assaulting the shores of sanity with greater might, Fighting back the fears, tortured thoughts which come with malice, Stabbing at the eyes of the seeing, While…

Black Gowned Spector

That dark curtain, What is behind it? Shall we peak? What should we discover? Will it be? What we think it was? For the dark curtain draws back, Revealing it’s secrets dressed in black, Black gowned Spector rises.
