Grimm

Come Lie With Me,O Darling
Embrace Evermore
There is a Door and Another Side
An Eternal Wait

Wash My Feet,My Darling
As I Hold your Head in My Hands
There is Dark and Then Light Eternal
Fear is for the Ordinary

Sweet Relief,Dark Respite!
The Cold Bites the Skin.
Hold your Breath,my Love.
As I push your Head In.

You Dance and Spin to the Tune
Of Eternal Damnation and Forever Ruin
Until You Leave me Behind
For a moment.

Now I stain the Water Red
And wait for a While
I glance and see the night sky
In your cold,dead Smile.

Drip by Drip,
I leave it all behind.
Why should We Fear Death,My Darling,
When there's Nothing on the Other Side.

Five Stages

What pisses me off is that when all this started you said you would come back if I changed...

You made me believe that I could be better than I was. That I could hope to be good enough for you.

Then you said that you didn't believe me when I told you that I love you, that I would lay my world at your feet, my dreams in your heart and my hopes in your arms.

Then you told me that if we ever had a chance to get back together, we would and that I should have faith. That I should believe in our destiny and let it take its course...

When I told you that we would grow apart, that we would drift...that we wouldn't recognize each other anymore.

Last night you told me you barely even think about me anymore.

Today you told me that I should stop talking to you, that you needed space.

Now I dream by myself.

The truth is I never did have a chance, did I.

Poems from a Great Big Armchair with a Lamp Over My Shoulder

Lonely,Lost in solitude
Brushed aside as the world strolled,passed by

Weaving and stumbling he made his way
Among millions of faceless faces
Just another day in the life of the damned

I took him aside in a most compassionate way
a story he had, a deadline did i
a deadline across my face,ear to ear
as i smiled in emptiness,his tale i heard

Of love and broken dreams,
of hopes and aspirations

of family and parents and siblings too
of a girl he loved,deep and true

of slogans and leaders and hate filled speeches
how they turned brother on brother,the words of preachers

He spoke of fire and blood and waving flags
of tilaks washed by blood and topis strewn the ground
saffron and green stained red in equal measure

He slashed and cut and slashed again
Man,woman,Child it mattered not today

As he made his way home,young and filled with fervor
his actions had a price,paid in full

The splattered blood was cold and stuck to the touch
man woman and child,they bleed just as much

as the mob drew close he no longer saw  color or creed
just a million faceless faces,with lust to feed.

he walked away that day,and walked ever since
hes been walking away from it all, a stain on his soul no god can rinse

He ambled away as his tale came to an end
as i sat,confused,just another day in the life of the damned

Blood demands blood demands blood demands blood
the world has only so much to give,we can ask or we can forgive

Smoke Chasing Circles,Waiting for You

You left me,
But it was not the end.

I still have the rest of my life to live without you.
