When The Devils Come To Play

When the devils come to play, They always leave a mess, They have never made things better, Than before, they only guilt and stress.

(Contains two naughty words). Being afraid of little spiders. Makes absolutely no sense. Being scared of dragon flies. Or time in the dark spent. Being petrified of heights. When you're ten foot high.

With a gun in my manicured hand, And heels at my command, With my rouge lips that pout and bite, And my daring dark eyes that sparkle light.

A-Wandering

The quiet girl to whom no-one talks, Sneaks down the road, upon no-one walks, Trying to get away. She walks and walks until she can walk no more, And then knocks upon the nearest door.

What?

The bedroom smelt of sex and smoke, Of old cigars and passions broke. A broken bucket by the wall, Tangled sheets to break a fall. A splash of red against the bed, A book discarded, yet unread.

Illusions

Crows caw, Dogs viciously bark, The trees unsettled, The day itself a deathly mark. The wind blows furiously, Slapping my face, A shadow moves, Moves with a fast pace.

Red Is For Blood

Do I have your attention, do you believe me now, My lifeless face frozen in a frown. The voices drove me insane, leading me astray, Every day was a battle fighting through depression's fray.

Death Becomes You.

In your favorite chair, autumn seen through the window, My love you did not care. When was the last time you moved, skin turned to black, Appearance peeled and emotions cracked.

I make you feel so insecure, I know your secrets, You're not pure, I know what you do when alone, In monotone, I claim your home.

Twisted Knife

(Found this that I started ages ago so thought I'd finish it). The knife punctures through. A heart that was pure and true. It stabs right in there. Piercing without a care. Then someone comes along.

Don't You Know?

Can you see through the lies. Are the webs pulled too tight. Running rampant with knives. But nobody knows where they hide. Until its too late. Blood fills the place. You laugh in the shadows.

There's a monster in the mirror. Looking back at me. It's eyes locked on mine. Refusing to break free. There's a monster in the mirror. It's gruesome beyond compare.

Savage

As I sit here. And carve in to my flesh. The pain takes me away. From the places I hate. The blood flowing from my cuts. Are rivers bold and untamed. The knife is my vessel. I ride it willing.
