She was one of the wild ones
You know, a child of the winds
The kind that danced in moonlit fields
Until the morning fog rolled in
She would see wonders in the rain . . .

I look at the world through red-rimmed eyes
Because I can't afford to sleep
I walk through the world in a disguise
Because I can't afford to weep
I am always a minute . . .

Outside my door the rain is falling
Across the storm I hear you calling
The raven's wing outside my window
Is what gives away your signal
Have you come through smoke . . .

A beautiful disgrace I see
Every time she looks at me
And like a raven to a dove
I feel unworthy of her love
The pouring rain cannot erase
The teardrops that fall down . . .

On these glittering black shores
I finally exhale at last
I finally gather the strength
To release my trying past
Far too long I have suffered
In the shade of my downfall

I have held this far too long
Now I'm almost far too gone
I feel I can no longer hide
The pain and sorrow deep inside
It breaks free from deep within
Flows from my heart to . . .

The more you try to seek me out
The more you will end up confused
Mystified by the masks I wear
My cloak and dagger subterfuge
My flesh is anchored to this world
My soul resides in fantasy . . .

It is all a fading dream
The life I live, at times it seems
I can’t hold on, something’s amiss
The truth escapes my grasp like mist
And everything is just a lie
I’ve been born only . . .

To Fly
I try to stay away from ledges
Because temptation is too great
For me to soar over the edge
To go ahead and meet my Fate
I'd like to sail for just one moment
To feel the cool breeze . . .

I approach her cautiously
For she's spurned all who came before
The shining malice in her eyes
Has cast them outside of her doors
For she can turn grown men to stone

This is the title poem of my collection of dark poetry. One of my personal favorites.
I walk into the misty moonlight
Guided by some phantom insight

I come upon her lying there
With graveyard roses in her hair
For others she is deadly still
A captive held against her will
But it is for me she calls
Her whisper crawling across . . .

I dwell in darkness stabbed within
From leading this life of sin
While they rest in peaceful sleep
Outside I weep and gnash my teeth
Devoid of hope I turn to see

I've been exiled in the night
Peering inside at the light
In my past how much I'd longed
To fit in and to belong
But with time I came to see
Something was . . .

I bid you farewell, my false friend
For it is past time that we end
The bond of friendship we once shared
Trust is a farce, yet still I dared
For like Janus you have two . . .

I reach out to take the last
Blooming beautiful red rose
Which quickly dies and turns to ash
Before the scent can reach my nose
For that's always been my fate
Destroying beauty . . .

I walked alone one windy night
When startled by a sudden light
The dark cloud mass broke suddenly
The orange moon's light shone down on me
Glaring like a dragon's . . .

Fill me until I runneth over
With your coffee cream of care
And like magic it disappears
Until it's more than you can bear
Because you've tried hard not to see
How hollow . . .

She came to me one winter night
Darkening the moon's soft light
No fear, I felt only joy instead
Among the tombstones of the dead
Only one thing could . . .
