Examples of my Poetry:


Lethal Beauty (Sunday, November 06, 2005)

One touch of your fingers

The perfume of your breath

I long to embrace and hold you

To join with you means death

My soul cries out to free you

From your solitary fate

In seclusion and abandoned

Alone and cursed to wait

I feel such love and passion

Yet empty, and forlorn

Tormented by the knowledge

My aching heart is torn

What sort of fiendish monster

Could have cast this heartless spell

To take a blameless innocent

Then damn her to a lonely Hell?

To cure you and restore you

I vow I'll find some way

I'll break the chains that bind you

Then we can run away

An elixer or a potion

To cleanse envenomed flesh

Redemption from your quarantine

Free to start afresh

I pledge my heart and hand

I shall save you or I'll die

Our lips will touch I swear to you

Your affliction I'll defy

We'll find delight and pleasure

As one our souls entwined

We'll walk together forever

Made pure, our love refined.

Out the Window (2005)

You sit within your room in pain

Wondering if you're going insane

Thoughts of how the time flew by

Wonder how your mind could lie

Scared of seeing their evil light

Steal you up into the night

Feelings set your soul on fire

You can't move as you go higher

Rape your body erase your mind

Who WAS the one who stood behind?

You watch your body fall apart

Damaged soul and broken heart

They tell you that it could not be

If only you could make them see

Terror as the night draws near

For with it comes the ones you fear

They could heal you if they would

It seems their motives are never good

You wish it all would go away

Too bad I think they've come to stay

From the Pod (2005 December)

I look upon a stormy sea

I sit atop a mountain high

I traipse across a fiery plain

In one blink of my eye

I hop upon a rolling train

Walk miles down a dusty road

I fly across a star-lit sky

To watch the world explode

Taste scarlet fruits from paradise trees

Spinning maidens exotic dance

Icy flames consuming me

I slip into ecstatic trance

The air so sweet, inhale the smoke

I hear the silent drum

I watch the spiral web unwind

See what has been and is yet to come

Inside my mind there are no walls

Behind these bolted doors

They may lock me up and lose the key

Yet still my spirit soars

Upon a cold steel slab I sleep

No windows in this cell

Lights out, locked down, but I'm not here

I'm free and all is well
