Broken Promises

Of all the lands you promised me,
The living land condemned me;
Trickles, -of deathly scars
plunge deep, sweeping, -raping martyrs.
My shrieks no longer claw the skies;
The ghouls no longer chase my eyes
-twisted sunrise purges my rise
Of all the lands -it's hidden me.

The jewel, my heart
A rotting coal
Jagged ridges, corpse parts.
Skinned-shelling cracked ribs,
A hollow torso with no zing.

A glint too dark
Parts your eyes
Mocks, taints -my love for thy
Ambushed lights of my pure flight
The land you promised
Condemns me.

Gone

#nightdwellers. Am I going to hell I really don't care. Anger rage confusion and doubt. Remember her the one who was here. Now she's gone and I am without. Tell her she broke me and made me this way.

A Sold Soul

#nightdwellers Could offend the sensitive I suppose To share my soul delight, Naughty secrets in the night, Pure wants, dominating minds, sexual thoughts desires entwined.

Shadow Land

Shaking hands, Looking into a shadow land, Reaching up to a dusty shelf, Hoping to find a piece of myself. Tragedies in ink, Words of my own hell. Anything to mean something to me.

Setting Free

Long grey fingers pull sharply at my hair,. Running through the night,. The forest sounds, sending chills down my spine,. As I make my hasty flight. A winding path, of fallen twigs,.

My Dream Girl

Welcome to my nightmare. Just step right in there's room to spare. It's dark I know and kind of eerie. Don't be afraid it's not too scary. There are ghouls of course and monsters too.
