The RipperPoor fool, please don't expect me to be niceThe Ripper5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The darkness is the perfect place to play
Whether I kill you with fire or ice
Your soul is mine, no matter what you say
With cuts and slices, I will bleed you dry
Mercy is unfamiliar to me
Please, humor me and let me see you cry
Ohhh, I would love to see you try to flee
With a knife in my hand and you pleading
And begging softly for your life at me feet
I know that I want to see you bleeding
I slash away wildly and repeat
With a satisfied smile, I can walk away
And The Ripper can slay another day

I can't just exist. But I can't live either. I was never meant to live in a world like this. I'm sure of that. Where is the reality I desperately seek? Where is the end of my dream? When I wake up, will I want to go back to sleep?
I don't think I was ever born. I don't remember anything but pain. The pain I cause others. The pain inside my mind. Like a headache that never fades. If I reach out for help I drag that helping hand into the shadows. Into unknown darkness and torment. Nightmares. &#

Love
It isn't the size of her breasts
Nor is it the way you dress
Love isn't your wealth
Or popularity
Love isn't the jerk
Love isn't sex
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love is when you'll be there for him
Love is when you'll stay by his side
Love is when you'll spend eternity with him
Love is when you'll die for him
Love is to love

Tomorrow
It's so complex
In the minds of society
But once asked
An answer falls instantly
I would have never guessed
I felt that way about you
But now that I look at our past
My next words are true
I would miss you, beyond anything
I undoubtedly would become so broken
I would fall into sorrow and confusion
I never want that to happen

Every human goes through it though
We're given a life
But in the end we have to let it go
When it's our time
But I never want you to leave
I need you to stay
Who else would be there for me?
When I'm having the worst day
My tears fill up these thoughts
Glistening in my eyes

Suicide noteDear Mister,Suicide note8 months ago in Concrete Poetry More Like This
I lay empty inside with many thoughts of suicide. Limbo is where I stand above the ground so high. The people below laugh at my failure that has tainted my empty heart. So Mister call my phone, talk to me, tell me why I was born when nobody wants me. Maybe tomorrow or maybe next year you will find my wrenched corpse in my bathtub. The cold water will run down my bloody wrists. Liquor stains my clothes because I drank to my death in a good humor. Dead lips so cold just a touch will break me. No longer will I be your victim of your love rape or abuse. The scars on my body are enough proof of your existence. Tonight I will l

Almost Human - Chapter 1: Prelude to MadnessI hope you enjoy the little gift I left behind. I'd love to see your face right now as you receive it. Your blood must be boiling over, your heart racing for the horror your eyes have witnessed, your mind flooding with adrenaline to come after me. All that drive and resolve drowning that constant stoic and brooding stare. Oh, how I'd love to be standing right in front of you to witness the reaction to my present. But alas, my attention is needed elsewhere. That idiot Harley Quinn of mine cannot function properly without my lead.

A girl of little years
One seen small of the world
Many drastic fears
There was a day
Where I believed
I could live without a care
Fall in love
With whoever was there
Instead, my only love
Came from my hate
At my dress up party
A love blossomed within our eyes
Something more beautiful
Than you could see
Romeo, Romeo he was my all
But never the less,
His name made us fall
But in my eyes he was the best
What fate hath brought
Us to our doom?
Maybe it was wrong of us to assume
It probably hath been far too soon
Romeo as fair as you are,
There is nothing I can do
I've tried every trick

Chapter Eight – To Ride in Snow
The chill air plumed from her mouth as the horse cantered along the river’s shoreline. Spotting the ford to cross, Mira grinned, shot a look over to the other rider whose fair hair was flowing loose from any bonds, matching her steed’s pace easily. Kicking her heels into the horse’s ribs, Mira laughed as the horse bounded across the shallow water toward the snowy plains on the other side. The horse wickered at the sudden freedom of running. Mira could hear a yell coming from Ulfric as he urged his horse to chase after her.
They ran wildly over the snowy plain sparkling pristinely in the pale sunshine, enjoying the bit of freedom from war, politics, and the troubles of the land. It was if they were transported back twenty years when they were young and doing the same chase. Mira swerved her horse, to which Ulric laid a parallel run to Mira. Slapping the reins, Ulfric le

Mrrsizha chuckled. "I never told you in the first place, Brynjolf." He grunted irritably in response and she shot him a grin over her shoulder. "You'll see."
He exhaled softly, an exasperated not-quite-sigh, but didn't push, and for that Mrrsizha was grateful. She hadn't told Brynjolf their destination for a reason: she didn't think he'd be very happy about it.
The Khajiit's ears perked as they rounded the cliff and she stopped short, holding up a hand. Brynjolf made a questioning sound, stopping just behind her. "Lass?"
"The lantern." Mrrsizha didn't carry a lantern--she didn't need one, even in t

Passionate words flowing around me
Suffused with life
Endless promise
With tales deeper than the Sea

Only joy

they come and go,
true friends stay
to watch the show,
They will be there to the end,
to see your story unfold,
to give you advice,
as you're never alone
True friends are mistaken,
for what they say,
listen to them once,
it might make your day,
Forever in a blue moon,
will you lose a true friend,
until that day comes,
true friends until the end.

Every time I see that smile

Every time I hear your laugh
I'm falling

My heart aches with passion when I see you
I'm falling
My stomach is sore from this pain
Every time I see you my heart beat skips agonisingly
My breath is difficult to catch anymore
Every time I hear you, I feel so lonely
I'm falling
Why can't you catch me?

Lady of RavensSinging such a haunting melodyLady of Ravens1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
In a voice steeped in endless intrigue
Playing coy and drawing you in
Calling her Ravens to cut off your retreat
Closing in, her talons raised
Provocative smile to sup on your soul
Only a song
Melodies unheard
Just enough to tame her darkness
More than enough to bring her back
Curious
Who is this man
Sharing the Owl's knowing eyes
A stoic sentinel with feathered hair
His voice a honeyed razor
Cutting the darkness
Ensnaring her emotion
A bond is formed
Now a steadfast ally
His blade is hers
If only she will control her darkness
Accepting his light in repose
A proud adviser to his Lady of Rav

Anger red and raw
Resentment a toxin fatal and nauseating
Hatred a gnarled grasping claw
My rage festers withing a decaying shell
As I indifferently choose to reign it in
That same irritation that I know so well
May buy me a one stop trip into Hell
There's a face in the fire that's calling out to me
Beckoning with talons so tauntingly sweet
Trying to shape my mind into what it desires it to be
Looking forward to the day that I'd admit my defeat
Temperance pulls me into a comforting embrace
Forgiveness pulls me out of the smoke
Hope smiles with a shining face
Peace flows beside it wearing a silve

The calm wind it brings will make you sigh
Finding you've grown to lonely to treasure the little things
As you're drawn into a void of darkest despair
Deep within the shadows of your heart
Your candle flickers weakly
Feebly trying to burn without warmth or life
To sacrifice contentment is the lesser of two evils
Between happiness and oblivion is where I choose to settle
Even as it tries to corrupt with filthy talons of doubt
Only a dwindling spark of optimism keeps the candle alight
That deceiving demon that has many faces
Unable to cope with my blatant refusal to surrender

The Ancient WarTheir paws fell softly in the nightThe Ancient War1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
Beneath a quartered moon
Their calloused hearts trimmed for the fight
As they marched upon their doom
That which bore them to the fray
A feud of wings and paws
Bid wolf strength dare not to sway
Before the dragons claws
The dragons rose in silent flight
The skies of stars deplete
Their armor shone in quartered light
Above the wolven fleet
Earth and air by hatred old
Converged upon the field
The lives then claimed still left untold
As both refused to yield
The hearts of two that led the surge
Beyond all hatred stung
By drake and mate the wolves to scourge
To avenge their stolen son

The WarriorSo much for the warrior. She thought that she could liveThe Warrior1 year ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Among the brush and brambles and the trees of sticky figs.
Her family was an arrow. Her friend was her bow.
Her protector was a cloak to keep out the wicked cold.
She'd do anything to live because the key was to survive,
Or at least she thought it was. She liked being alive.
She pushed everyone away so not to hurt her perfect heart.
To let them in would be a risk, a dreaded task to start.
But little did she know her sacred heart had turned to stone,
So through the forest now the warrior sadly walks alone.
