I'm happy because I have youHere I am, so truely happy. I havent the slightest idea what I did to deserve this happiness. This feeling is so grand and I hope it never goes away. I can't believe I have met her, such and amazing person. So sweet, loving and caring, she is perfect in everyway. I love her with all my heart and soul, she's such a beauty to behold. The love of my life, the one I wanna hold. I wanna make her as happy as she makes me, I wanna hold her close to protect her from what hurts her. I wanna be her babygirl forever, I wanna be able to wake to her every morning and see her beautiful face. To swoon her over and over, by doing random romantic things outta no where. I want to give her everything she deserves and more. I wanna show her everyday how much I love her and how much she means to me, for she is the love of my life, my dream come true.

You!You take so much pleasureYou!1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
In my pains
While your fucking blood
Flows through my veins
Like the Nile river going on forever
And you took from me
The time of purity
That time of pleasure
Like a flame
You suffocated it
To leave smoke
As black as your heart!
You think you have won
With all the scars you've left
But I tell you now
You will soon regret
You may have given me life
But now I own it
I am not that same child
So weak and defenseless
Now I stand tall
And for myself
I will not fall!
For you are no longer a part of me!

No, don't think I did,
Apparently, though, I'm just a kid.
I don't want your disease,
I'm already dead,
At least now you can't play with my head.
Don't force-feed me your lies,
I want to keep me,
And not be wrecked by society.
I know you're not perfect,
Well, neither am I,
I am sick of living in a lie.
Do you see all these scars?
The inside ones too,
No, because you think it's all taboo.
Help me to disappear,
It's what we both need,
I just can't cope with life's harsh stampede.
Please don't try to save me,
As I yearn for death,
But will you feel bad at my last breath?
Don't you dare act sad,

Although I know, yes I do
That tomorrow hopefully again
I'll have you under my arm
Today however I live in pain
For my heart is no longer warm
This is a long a day
Without you, I again say
Want to be with you all the time
Embrace, kiss and touch you
To call you forever mine
That's what I want to do
But I have to wait
That is my faith
Just a few short hours
but they aren't for me
I want our love to flower
with you is where I want to be
Yet another dark thought
and this is what it brought
I long for you so much
It's a burden I have to bare
Until I can see and touch
and show you how much I care

Human emotions flickering on and off

and mistreating you when you're stupid.
First step: the monsters unleash their
true colours, calloused claws cutting
a bloodied mark of my heart, the drips
of dark red. They ridicule you, without
any guilt or thought for how you feel…
Second step: then they transform into
feeble and fictitious felines. They strut

idiotic game. They purr and plead for
your help, ever so plastic-like.

of gullibility and innocence – that this
world is a beauty left untainted, pure.
Behold this enlightenment, this world

Rule one: no strong relationships. Be it
your best friends or family. One day, they
will leave you – either by choice or through
death – when that happens, you'll be left
broken, battered and bent on the side.
Don't be naive. No one stays, no matter

They light up my silent mouth like Christmas lights—
I can't wait to spit them off my tongue and fashion
Boughs of meaning, like Austen,
To decorate the dull minds of which I am no stranger.
This language, like a painter's brush,
Is ill at ease with me.
I cannot move to make a speech
For those bewitching late-night eyes—
And nimbly,
Unrequited love ascends my spine,
Those cowardly steps of groaning bone—
And conquers me.

We've had -
Three years of winter,
Three years of persistence
Still we stand, Einherjer, side by side,
The storm rages through our ranks,
Mountains come down, Grinding to dust,
But still we stand, Einherjer, side by side!
The flames lick the sky,
Our spears and swords held up high,
As we clash,
In the valleys of ragnarök,
Impending our doom,
The giants storm forth,
There's an end,
And it's closing in on our souls.
The flames lick the sky,
Our spears and swords held up high,
As we clash,
In the valleys of ragnarök,
Hel's army approach,
Loki's daughter storm forth,

So fucking afraid, i wait
For the moment when my glue

growing base, so in tune with my nature
that I'm losing my place in this world of extraneous desire,
I want to feel your atomic shell pound against mine
as our lips share the same space,
I want to find sleep, suspended animation
exploring my brain through the cheap imitation
of my waking dreaming translation,
I'm about as close to real as I can,
slipping through the world with a flick of a pen,
flicker screen, pixel pattern,
proper posture, air in my nostrils
borrowed from aristocrats ages ago,
recirculated, through my circulatory system
giving my blood oxygen,

Genuine to herself you see
Talking to her you will sense authority
That will stir your senses intuitively
Strict, it's what they define her
Sarcastic, made a strong personality
Sensible to every decisions she've decided
That makes her difficult to persuade
But behind that tough character
Is a heart that's full of laughter
A cheerful smile that can alter
A mirthful soul from whimper
She's like a book needed to be read
You can't understand if you won't comprehend
Once you'll discern then you'll perceive
What a wonderful someone she is
First glance would look so ordinary
But stare at her

arriving with the hummingbirds.
The sweet summer breeze
welcomed me gently,
and everything was quiet in the world.
The stars glimmered bright in the darkness,
and reflected sparkling in my eyes.
Flowers and thorns bloomed around my feet,
and above me, only sky.
I was born with an innocent heart,
not yet set on fire.
Not yet tangled with memories and dreams,
not yet broken with desire.
Now these thorns still grow around me,
and roses are few to none.
For I have set myself on fire,
and these roots won't let me run.

Voices ringing
Like a clad of darkness
Banshees singing
Embracing madness
White roses burn to dust
Sorrow within my heart
Restrained sins of lust
It's tearing me apart
Blood slides down the fragile arm
Promises left for broken
Keeping one safe from harm
Hypocrisy's only token
Save me from myself
I can't take it any longer
The picture on a wooden shelf
Emotions ever so stronger
Love is a widow's song
A bird's broken wing
A mirror of all wrong
A tune she used to sing
Love is a broken vow
The tainting of all light
Accepting what is now...
Straying the path of right
Obsession like a fragile flower

Sweetness, care and a peaceful life.
He understands, or at least tries to.
The other throws me into chaos,
frustration and uncertainty,
yet his arms never leaving my waist
nor my heart. Shielding me.
One makes me feel safe and fine,
the other one makes me feel alive.
A feeling so strong it overcomes
anything else I've ever felt before.
One would never leave me,
he would be my guide when life gets hard,
he would always be there for me.
The other is so like myself,
that I can't trust him,
because I know me,
I'm aware of how fickle I am,
and he's the same.

and new ones still get the chance to kill us
they pull our bodies apart
ripping our skin
like when your stitches came open
because we were too rough in bed
and maybe you had a boyfriend
who sometimes thought about burning you
with the cigars you didn't know he smoked
or a girlfriend
who liked someone else inside her
and still kissed you when she came home
we stayed up too late one night
you were mumbling about my eyes
so I closed them and you kissed me
and I fell asleep wondering
if you had once been with a boy
who wanted to hurt you
or a girl that didn't love your eyes
the way you love mine

A new design lingers,
There goes Johnny,
Walking down the street.
The city is kind of quiet
On this side of town,
But to the trained eye and ear
It's bustling with life.
Johnny passes by the basketball court,
A few memories come back
As he watches the kids play.
He throws a few coins
In a sax players hat,
And fingers the paint can
In his coat pocket.
Watch as he slips into the alley,
To the forbidden gallery -
Nobody will watch his secret work.

Betrayed, carried off for dead not quite as planned;
Blood bursting from his side, no life in him reside,

All hell was in its glory, if any be, even there;
Satan screaming, victory, as if he even dare;
His demons smirking, laughing, oh so cruel;
A world possessed by them, left no man to fool.
The glorious streets of gold turn darkened pale,
And thunder roared on earth and vale;
Cherubim no longer sung, but tears were only wrung;
His Father up above, cried it is finished oh my love.

way this world works. Telling me that
in life, no one is trustworthy and you
can never escape being ridiculed by
the faces of discretion. He told me I
was hideous, and had the intelligence
of a block; he made me lose control
of myself, leaving me in a state of
never-ending solitary depression.
Yet he showed me life. He always told
me to stay true to myself, strong. He
always told me to ignore what idiotic
people would say about me. He always
told me to never give up. With tears
tumbling, my lips would still show the
slightest curve.
Funny how hate turns to undying love.

Although you had nothing –
Nothing for you to gain

Tears were tumbling down my face
My soul will never be the same
