Dearest Mirror

Dearest mirror can you see,
deep inside my fantasy.
Can you see this blood soaked plain,
For I  am sure  I am going insane.
I do not want him in my mind,
his thoughts for me they are not kind.
Oh Mirror Dearest can you tell,
this demon takes me straight to Hell.
There’s no disguising what I feel,
I no longer know what is real.
I do not want to hold his hand,
He doesn’t know just Who I am.
Dear Dearest Mirror does he know,
that my hate from love does truly grow?
And I will leave his corpse down there,
where he can lay and forever Stare.
I do not want him in my life,
I only want him to feel my knife.

Did You Ever Dare to Dream

I watched the sunlight from outside, slowly creeping in,
As dawn arose, standing by my side, I am ready to begin.
Did you ever dare to dream, that mermaids lived with scale,
Or unicorns roam trampled woods, do pirates still set sail?
Are the hours long enough, do you see them dwindle fast?
Will you ever see your future, if you can’t forget your past?

I watched the sunlight from outside, radiate my room,
Shadows cast along my wall, it is now high noon.
Did you ever dare to dream, that nymphs had hair of green,
Or Fairies flew with flowers dew, a kingdom have you seen?
Are the hours long enough, Do the minutes slip away?
Will you ever see tomorrow, if you live in yesterday?

I watched the sunlight from outside, slowly fade to dark,
The night it comes to over shadow, the day that I embarked.
Did you ever dare to dream, That Vampires walked the earth,
Or zombies still lie bitterly, and Ghost give fear new birth?
Are the hours long enough, the sunlight has long since seeped out,
Will you ever see forevermore, when right now you live in doubt?

Dangerous Intentions

My eyes are blurry, my sights are low,
I’m trying to hide, but there’s no place to go.
You can tell I’m in for stormy weather,
For all my days are melding together.

You hold nothing but Dangerous Intentions.
Running and chasing in all directions.
Leave me wondering, what can be done,
To vanquish your forces before the sun.

I see on the horizon a fading light,
The door once closed, I’ll have to fight.
Oh future seer, seeped in knowledge,
How lost am I, in your foliage.

I learned my limit, I learned my stay,
I learned to run, I once walked away.
And as I prepare to make my stand,
I am afraid, of who I am.

Dancers

It’s raining again today, just like yesterday,
I’m listening to the rain fall and the lightning play.
There’s nothing more to do, but sit and cry,
Since this rain has fallen, I’ve wanted to die.

There’s no loneliness that can’t be conquered,
No silence unbroken, no time that faltered.
There’s no dream that can’t mend in time,
If only just once the sun would shine.

The thunder calls out your name and mine,
As I watch dancers, dance out of time.
And glitter falls like dewdrops on the page,
The party goes on with the latest rage.

The sky so dark and gray it would seem,
That I am living some endless dream.
Of which I shall never once awake,
For never do I see the daybreak.

Why did we come here, what did we seek,
In this rain, at this party, did you peek?
The dancers dance without rhythm or rhyme,
When do we notice we’ve run out of time?

If I miss you, I mean I’m alone,
If I love you, my heart is of stone.
And if I should turn you away,
I’ve left the party for the rain to play.

No One Can Comprehend

Why am I always alone, he turns away from me,
Why should I even try for what I long to be.
I had learned so much from the one before,
Does everyone think I can take much more?
No one can comprehend,
Why my life can not bend.
Hurt and frustration how long this time,
Til another heart ache I find,
Though they promise the world to me,
I’ll always know this can not be.
No one can comprehend,
How long it takes my heart to mend.
I long to cry to mourn my loss,
But it’s the way the coin is tossed.
It’s tossed the same all the time,
And yet tomorrow the sun will shine.
No one can comprehend,
Why do I even bother to try again.
I do not think I will go to another,
It stays the same I don’t need to bother.
I guess this is God’s will to be alone,
So I will sit and turn to stone.
No one can comprehend,
Why I call this life the end.

Chance

A chance to live, a chance to dream,
A chance to have been anything.
I lay here in my bed awake,
And dream of you until daybreak.
The silent tears, for which I’ve shed,
The sickening silence that runs through my head.
And I sit and I sigh, I’ve nothing to do,
Except sit in the silence missing you.
A chance to breathe, a chance to see,
A chance to be what I want to be.
I sit here in my room alone,
Thinking of things you have shown.
The words unspoken, that I hide,
The meaningless conversation has died.
And I sit and think, I’ve nothing to do,
Except sit in the silence missing you.

Challenge

Here we stand at the first line,
Of the new outrageous rhyme.
Take in a breath and forget time,
(Now is the time to decline)
As I take you on this ride of mine.
Now relax and free your thoughts,
There is no need to be distraught.
Now that your attention I have got,
Please glance upon what I have sought.
There you see the shades of Hue,
Pastels first, Green Yellow Red Blue.
Just one last thing to do…
Past the Darkness we must get you.
Ignore it not, you wont get past,
Do not run, this will not last.
Take in a breath we’re moving fast.
Now you Star in a Cast.
Amazing sights start to take hold,
Starting first with days of Old.
Knights in armor being bold,
Pirates searching for their gold.
Don’t stand to close, this is a tour,
Now we make a short detour.
And if much longer you can endure,
However stop now, if you aren’t sure.
Now we stand at the Abyss,
You wonder how it came to this,
Of all the things you could have missed,
You would have never wished.
I know this is your darkest fear,
You must Defeat it Here.
Or the rest is never clear,
This too is not as it appears.
Now if we just get back,
And once again the pastels stack.
Do not stand ready to attack,
Now is the time we call for slack.
Here we stand there is no Time,
There is no Reason, there is no Rhyme.
They rhythm’s beat is sublime,
You can now turn on a dime.
Dreams with others we all share,
We float on clouds while we’re there.
We never seem to have a care,
But not much more do we need to bear.
At another bout of Dark we stand,
This is beyond the No Mans land.
Now is the time we understand,
What is the Force in command.
Here we see a once new plain,
Ready for you to master the Game.
I pray for your sins, I pray for your pain,
But after this, you wont be the same.

Why I Can’t Stop Him From Calling

Beautiful, lovely, seduce my heart,
Inch your way in to tear me apart.
Seduce me, love me, call me new,
As I wait for the gathering dew.
My eyes, how they shimmer and glow,
As comments are made of the melting snow.
And I can never turn away,
Or there will not be another day.
My glorious hair does shimmer and shine,
New comments, now on fine wine.
I start to stop the constant barrage,
A kiss is now added to the collage.
A body of a goddess in the mist,
All the things he has wished.
My movement, an art full of grace,
My lips too sweet to taste.
My thoughts captivating, enthralling,
Why I can’t stop him from calling.

I Sit Alone

I am alone, all in darkness,
I no longer love I am heartless.
Surrounded by a raging crowd,
I sit alone, I am not proud.
I love no one it’s such a shame,
I lost the love, I am to blame.
Misery’s not played by all,
I sit alone and go through withdrawl.
The love we shared is now gone.
I can no longer carry on.
Dreams are all I have to give,
I sit alone, no will to live.
All I wanted and needed was you,
You went away when I was blue,
Even though it was for a little while,
I sit alone, I can not smile.
When I needed you, you weren’t there,
I couldn’t tell you, I wouldn’t dare,
There is no hope now, I am gone,
I sit alone My sadness will last long.
You’ll never know how I needed you,
You’ll never know my love was true,
Life goes on in all it’s ways,
I sit alone, and will for days.

The Dark Musty Alley

Cries fill the dark, musty alley,
All the things that can not be.
The things we tried to stop,
The ones that came out on top.
Laughter fills the dark, musty alley,
All the things that would be,
The things they all did,
The ones who always lived.
Tears fill the dark, musty alley,
All the things that should be,
The times it didn’t work,
The ones who did, under dirt.
Sighs fill the dark, musty alley,
All the things that had to be,
The times that were shared,
The ones who always cared.
Screams fill the dark, musty alley,
All the things never to be,
The things that were done in vain,
The ones lucky enough to end the pain.
Anger fills the dark, musty alley,
All the things that need to be,
The times that were full of regret,
The ones we never can forget.
