My intentions nothing but pure,
Your love in my dreams forevermore
Gone without disposal,
But of your own accord
Held fast to the hope,
Lest my body find tour
Gave me the strength to carry,
All but burdens at my door
Had you given me the will
To find peace in solitude,
May I be dead in a casket
Where dreams are nevermore
Your fading memory
Came back to haunt me
This oppressive misery
Came here to fill me
I gaze upon the hopeless sky
Before losing my mind,
And wonder why I have to try
In this carnival of lies
Brake me, fake me
God, just liberate me
I'll be that star in the field of night,
Completely unknown but absolutely contrite
Carry me down to my final rest,
Carry me down, 'tis my behest
My wings have come undone
I scream for your sweet caress.
The descent has just begun,
But I'm yours to love, I confess
I thought I'd die on sudden impact,
But, in fact,
To save me, all reason, did you infract,
To be exact
Like an infant,
I wept by the walls of fire,
Though, in that instant,
You lifted me higher
So, again, I could reach the heavens,
Where my heart is no more graven,
Shredded and severed by thorns,
Ripped, spiked, and torn
My wings have come undone
I scream for your sweet caress.
The ascent has just begun
But I'm yours to love, I do confess

When Push Comes to Shove
Falling, a part of me
Look a little closer, love
Spectate this failure to see
That push came to shove
Yearning for passion,
I see the side effects
Of my senseless fashion.
Tell me what is next.
Give it to me, I'm a liar
Break me down into oblivion,
Here, at the tip of your spire
I won't fight back; I'm giving in
As our mothers cry
And the crows caw,
They will watch in awe,
Then ask the reasons why
It has come to bloodshed
And we tear each other apart.
By the things we've said,
To sever each other's heart
You know, this joyride,
Made of war and distrust,
Forces me to confide,
In raging disgust
Falling, the whole of me
Turn your blind eyes
They're bleeding my serenity
And my lies seem to fail
In burning your severity
Leave me be
I'm just the watchman
And one day you'll see
Once more, I'm right, then
Gorge your bellies with red sin
Usher in your sweet blasphemy
You were the ones who told me
So go on, just settle in
To -
Your houses of bigotry, scorn and pain
Your courtrooms of lies; just say the name
Your valleys of pity, just let me begin
Your whores of money; we've all given in
You've bled out our trust
Your graves are still cold
And you accepted that lust
But used it to mold
The most mindless of pigs,
The whores and the sinners,
You
This is the climb
And I am the fall
Would you really mind
If I gave you it all?
The roses are drowning me
In the thorns and heavens
And it seems I'm destined to be
The one to break down and give in
My sin spent Your Life
But I'm finally free.
When I can't resist the knife,
You're all that I need
The only thing keeping You from me
Is simple me
Can I really stay away from You?
Could I really fall on my knees
And give myself full-view?
The love You give never ceased.
I offer up this pain
So accept me, the stain,
And wash me away, broken and vain
With Your ever-beautiful rain
Optimize this life by Your hand
To serve Your na
The Iris
An Iris -
Frail as a pendelum that swings
But what is this?
It feels like a bird that sings with its wings-
Such exsquisite mainstay,
Hard as stone and frail as feather
Master of emotion and such painful array-
More than a mind, but tied by tether
In such frustration,
One will never understand these values
When harbored in station
And kept from such beautiful hues
But why the inquiry?
When the Iris lost focus
And we became bleary
The senses left nothing but mournful sweet solace
Don't erase me, I'm only your Iris
When all is lost, I'll be here to fight this
Never give in - divide or surrender
I always will be your
My intentions nothing but pure,
Your love in my dreams forevermore
Gone without disposal,
But of your own accord
Held fast to the hope,
Lest my body find tour
Gave me the strength to carry,
All but burdens at my door
Had you given me the will
To find peace in solitude,
May I be dead in a casket
Where dreams are nevermore

You know, this joyride,
Made of war and distrust,
Forces me to confide,
In raging disgust
Falling, the whole of me
It's two-seventeen
And you don't know how I feel
It's not like you haven't seen
But you continue to persuade and steal
Why is the blood in my hands, you say?
Well, I'll tell you a story, my friend.
The story of my imperfection; my pain
But just wait - you have to hear the end
Not too long before the hiatus
But far past the delicacies
You used to hate us
Which forced us to our knees
So, did you know?
That we couldn't find the way,
You couldn't even show
How we should slowly fade
So, let this agony shake your seats
And give the pain manifestation
In the cold hearts that secure your feet
For which money serves consecration
Come to me tonight
And set me free
I want to see the Light
I yearn to see
Break the bonds that bind me
To the ground of sinking sand
Hold me close, let me breathe
And give me love to help me stand
Save me from the sorrow,
The dreadful pain and agony
And lend me your hand tomorrow,
So you would see the best of me
I've got no where to run
And no where to hide,
But where's all the fun
In ruining my pride?
Because...
It's inside your eyes
That I behold the fire
From the ocean
Bubbles a song
It's so pretty
But a little too long.
No human ear can hear it
No mermaid can ever sing
None can appreciate
The joy it would bring.
Tears would glisten
In their eyes
The beautiful melodies
Would make them cry
But no mermaid can sing it
No human can hear
Only the whales catch it
And only if they're near.
It's the sweetest song
Never heard.
But it's sung by all
Even the smallest ocean bird.
Yet no human can hear it
No mermaid can sing
But neither can Triton
The great sea king.
It's familiar to all
Even the unaware.
It's everyone song
The song that shows care.
Still the mermaids can't
Frozen in a field of white
Standing out like a beacon of light
Dark red like the freshest of blood
A beautiful weed grown in mud
Both graceful and cruel
Callous and sweet
This lonely rose that lies at my feet
Frozen in time for all to see
Its thorns that once pricked me
It begs me to save its life
This simple rose that once impaired me
Hush now, my love
Don't shed a tear.
I know you'll miss me
But I'm no longer here.
Hush now, my dearest
I'll always watch over you.
Just remember, I love you
Please tell your siblings too.
Hush now, my baby
Please stay strong.
There'll be no lullaby tonight
But sleep will come before long.
Hush now, sweetie
And when yu wake up tomorrow.
Please remember the love
Without the sorrow.
Hush now, my darling
I've thrown a kiss to the breeze.
Wherever you are
It will find you with ease.
Hush now, my son
I'll watch from above
But as you grow up
Never forget my love.
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there; I did not die...
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning's hush
I am th
If I was going to die,
Would you hold my body tight?
Would you wipe away my tears,
And tell me everythings alright?
If I was going to die,
Would you give me my first and last kiss?
Would you tell me,
I'm the one you'll forever miss?
If I was going to die,
Would you be the last thing I see?
Would you tell me,
that you always loved me?
If I was going to die,
Would you promise to stay by my side?
Would you let me,
bury my face in your shirt every time I cried?
If I was going to die,
And I began to forget about you,
Would you help me remember,
Why I loved your beautiful eyes so true?
If I was going to die,
Would you promis

Hey, guys. A new deviant art will be going up.
I'm not going to post my new short stories on here, but you will be able to download them via my new website,

I'll delete this DA once everything on the other one is set up. I can't promise that I'll bring over all the old poems to the new DA, so grab them while you can, if you want them. But I'll probably bring over the old pictures, because I know you guys kind of liked those...
Anyways, thank you to those of you who have supported me through the years. You've been good to me.
