Criminal
I reach out to you
And embrace nothing.
I see you laughing
While my face
Lies in the dirt.
Your disdain knows no bounds,
I hear her hounds;
Revenge is slow but certain.
Lift the curtain,
Look beyond the world
Laid before you!
You must choose,
Or else soon loose.
Take a path,
Raise your ax,
Take the final step.
There is nothing left
To slow you down.
There are no sounds,
No shrieking sirens.
Now go forth, fight them!
Name Your Game!
“For once, I won’t say your name!
For once, I won’t play your game!”
The dice is cast,
The curse, now lifted,
Purgation brings no salvation.
Guilt leads to damnation.
Show your eyes,
There’s no shame,
Alas, there’s no pain!
Submit to them, again.
Bend low, go with the flower,
The tides are turning,
Your heart is burning;
Again, you grow hollow.
Again, you must follow.
Forget this pain,
Again, you must say their name!
Again, you must play their game!
“Name your game!”
Oblivion
Oblivion is but a song,
It’s part of a woeful melody
That all must sing.
The pain of yesterday
Creeps forth, with time!
The things I done
No one will know!
They take my muse
To the pyre!
Never again to hear her song!
Fly low, hide your woe!
Only then you’ll survive.
I see timid flames
Burning anew, fresh young, full of youth.
They lie tamed by winter’s might.
This cold soul
Knows no woes.
Life has extinguished
Her first anguish.
All that remains
Is , but a one!
I was Here Poem Fragment
“I was here”, it is clear,
Sings the boy’s fear.
Death creeps again,
With no more pains!
Oh! Death , you lair!
Life’s pain is known by none.
Death for now, be gone.
I wish to rise, higher.
Do not extinguish, this fire.
Death
Surrender, your ember
This December!
Your cold fears
Are now here!
Let us cheer;
No more tears.
Your true hunger
Was laid asunder
By his scythe,
Yes, end your fight!
Now embrace…
No more chase!

Fragment
Shatter this mirror,
Make it a prism.
I cannot see
Beyond this prison.
Once again
Departs reason.
This is all a game,
Do not feel shame.
Become stronger
End your hunger.
Life is full of bliss,
Life is, but a kiss.
Hide the furnace,
Give us assurance.
We wish to sleep,
Make this grave deep!
Erase all hopes,
Shatter all illusions.
Strengthen your resolution,
Prepare to cope!
Hide the fact
That your all insane.
Sign this pact,
With your true name.

Forget
I cannot find
The will to forget,
My only regret
Is this cold bind.
Soon these chains
Will be broken.
You are mistaken
Nothing remains
Of that old ember.
Do you remember?
My first kiss,
Your last kiss.
Please, help me forget.
Remove this sword
Stuck in my chest.
Maybe then, I could rest
Away from this world!
I am
In the darkest interlude,
I listen to your tune.
What is the truth
That will set me free?
All are lies
And foolish curses.
Look, they fill their purses
With the blood
Of the lamb.
Are we all to be damned
For your ambition?
In my stillest hour,
My thoughts grow fouler.
I hear you scream, louder,
The lies that bind me.
Walk forth, raise the veil!
Look onward, sinner!
No need to shiver.
You washed your hands in his blood!
Oh! Cruel, merciless Adam!
You may scream, “I am!”

Death Before Revenge
Do you remember
Your old ember?
The one that shone
Its timid glow?
So vague, so full of life,
It rises, not once, but twice.
Fueling up old strife.
No chains may hold them,
This bloody river travels far!
Return to December!
Seal this bloody well,
Call back your hell,
You cannot defend her.
In this marble hill,
She sleeps, with chill,
Go, now, join her,
Die now and surrender!

Sweet Revenge
Lost in thoughts I dare not mention!
Trapped inside this machination!
Forget those that bound you!
Break the chains, that bind you!
You are free, can’t you see?
They’re the ones that want me.
You escaped, but they caught me…
You felt no shame, when you left me.
I am not dead, you must know.
I’ll put an end to your show.
You have them dancing to your tune.
On the seventh moon,
You’ll cry out, “ I am doomed”.
My sweet revenge is but a whisper!
I’ll sing the day I hear you whimper.
The Beating Heart
The beating heart is laughing,
Do you know what’s coming?
Smile again, anew!
For your morning dew,
They cannot escape,
They are for you to shape!
The must adore crimson,
They can’t escape your prison.
The beating heart is crying,
There is no one coming!
Whom will you choose?
They must wear your shoes.
The beating heart is dying,
The truth you’re always hiding.
The children are the lumber,
To fuel your dying ember.
The Ballad of Exada
Behind those black eyes,
Your sorrow, hides,
Oh, Exada, my blessing in disguise.
My father doesn’t love me!
My nana doesn’t know me!
Oh! Exada, behind those scales
Hides true hell.
Always an empty shell,
I am a doll for them to play with,
I cannot recognize
My own face in the mirror…
Why does that girl laugh
When I wish to cry?
Oh, Exada, my dear Exada!
Help me, save me,
Inside these walls
Lies my true prison.
Behind your black eyes,
Hides my pitiful sign.
Beneath your scales
Hides my true wail.
I cannot cry again,
I am a prisoner
In my own home.
Oh, Exada, save me,
My home, my all!!
Oh, Exada, tear down
This marble wall.
Prisoner
Peace is, but a distant memory,
We all now dance to his memory,
He sings such a grim song!
For how long
Must we toil?
Him, we cannot foil.
His will moves mountains.
Lift the curtains,
Behind it, you will see
The one true peace.
We can never live,
At most, we can only be.
Mellow, Yellow
Oh, so tender,
Your warm ember.
I remember
A life beyond December.
This gripping cold
Makes us grow old.
You can never behold:
A face distorted by pain,
A Soul wishing to live again.
What is there to gain
From your stupid game?
You’re the one to blame!

Paranoid
Behind each shadow
Lurks a face,
For every whisper,
100 ears listen.
We all must bear
The same burden.
The sloth eating the just.
Destiny’s Hand
Destiny’s hand is hollow
Her vague promises
Makes us follow
To a pit, to a grave,
Bearing our true name.
In this marble plate
I read my shame.
Who’s to blame
For my mistakes?
The path was laid bare
By our ancestors.
The wheel keeps on
Forever turning,
Look, she once again
Beckons us to relive
Our ancestral pain.
What is there to gain
From our struggles?
Her only words of comfort
are “human experience.”
1/26/2013
Human Experience
“ Human Experience”
Is their only consolation,
Such vague words
describe our own damnation.
We all must join
The same parade,
We all must enjoy
Being part of their charade.
The dices are weighted,
The outcome, fated,
Those who are full
Intone the same cold tune.
It’s “human experience”
Our pain, our torture.
We must kiss the ax
Of our executioner.
Erase all delusions,
Prepare your contribution
To this hellish
Human experience.

Blend
Return to a time
When life had no sorrows,
A time when you desired
To see tomorrow.
Those days are gone;
They slipped by, so quickly,
Now in the present
You look back
And wish for your old blindness.
This true foresight
Makes you wonder,
Makes you hunger.
The pain in your bleeding chest,
Must be laid to rest.
It is best to forget
All your regrets.
Blind yourself anew
To enjoy the morning dew!
Forget
Digging up a grave
To bury my rage.
There is nothing to gain
From labor’s pain.
I lift up my pen
To drop it, yet again.
These words refuse to flow.
I must bend low,
I must learn to forget.
I must erase all my regrets.
There is nothing Left to Gain
Hour wasted, minutes discarded.
On What was my time spent?
The knife has found the dent
In the back of my armor.
The old scar was laid open.
From it drops a velvet curtain.
There is nothing left to gain.
Al has been set and done.
The sun is setting on my tomorrow.
There is nothing left, but sorrow.
Mirror
They seek absolution
In their petty, contributions.
Yet, they cannot erase
That horrible face.
You may opaque the mirror.
You may taint it crimson.
Yet, you cannot escape this prison.
Nor, their cries of horror.
There is not forgives,
For its all business.
It
For my bleeding heart,
How much do you want?
Put a price tag on my pain!
Parade it, discard it,
How much do you want for it?
Its blood can fill a fountain.
It can also move mountains.
“No one is looking at it,
No one wants it.
Not even the rats desire it.
Save it for the blowflies instead.”

American Dream
Shatter the mirror.
Erase all illusions.
Swallow the bitter pill.
This medicine will
Cure all your ills.
As the heart hardens,
You’ll soon harness
The lies they fed you.
Your old delusions
Brought you this far.
At what cost
Did you let your ember
Be drowned by your tears?
By the fears
That bind you.
In bliss you chased
The American dream
That soon turned
Into a nightmare.
You cannot find whom to blame!
Nor can you erase your shame!

The Awakening
For how long did I sleep?
I cannot remember.
How many days have gone by?
I care not to remember.
Night and day are one
Inside this pit.
Why do I wake
When I wish to sleep?
Am I awake?
I cannot tell…
I hear a faint whisper,
Whisper of what, I know not…
Why do I wake
When I only wish to sleep?
Yes, let me still anew
My beating heart.
Its sound is deafening
In this still silence.
Silence life,
Let me return to death.
Why do I live
When I only desire death?
2/14/2013
Stuck
Stuck in the now,
There is no way out
But Thanatos’ grip.
I take many trips
With the vague hope
That I might learn to cope
With the same old no.
Above this stony hills
There awaits my bills.
Drown the truth
I sleep again
With a heavy heart.
There are many things
I wish to forget.
Why must I hold onto the trivial
When the substance fades away?
Questions
This putrid blood,
Weights a ton.
When did you surrender
Your old ember?
You are blind,
In her bind.
Always scheming,
Forever planning
For a tomorrow
That may never come.
What did you desire?
Was it Apollo’s lyre?
No. Pour your flood
Into these empty pages.
2/17/2013
Locked Door
In these empty halls,
Full of white stained walls.
I wish to paint them anew
With a few memories.
I hear a faint whisper
Of a song I heard before
Reaching into the core.
At the end, of it all
Lies a door
With a sign.
And it reads,”
And it bleeds.”
The door is locked,
I threw away the key.
Desert
Cast he seeds
In the desert.
Soon they dry,
The sky cries:
They, with hope,
Reach above
To taste just
Putrid death!
Virginal Guitar
Why bother to tune
A guitar no one will play?
In a corner she rest
Waiting for the end.
Time passes anew
The strings lie virginal.
No melody ever escaped
Her hollow mouth.
Alone she rested
Keeping her tune mute.
No one will play it.
No one will break it,
Except the grim death.
2/21/2013
The Beast
For how long,
I know not,
Did I avoid mirrors?
I do not want to see
The beast within!
So hollow, so opaque,
A face scarred by death,
And eyes so vacant.
The Mind escapes,
Reality gives chase.
Forever binding,
Always guiding
Toward the same end.
IHU IHU
For how long I hated you (?), when
I sought to kiss your steel blade
Those trembling lips killed me again.
*** ***
The morning dew Mask your stench, it
Welcomes you, Beckons you
To my arms toward my phantom, to
Once again hug my neck.
**** ****
I know not What to do,
For how long must I serve you?
I waited for you, with a leaded arrow
But you never came you aim at me, again.
3/3/2013
You Never Came
For how long
Did I wait?
And you never came?
In these dark hours
I bleed over
These empty pages.
They are lost,
Just like you.
I waited a 1000 years,
And you never came.
I cannot erase
This leaded memory.
For How long,
And you never came.
Not Another Fat Poem
For how long,
I know not,
Did I hunger
For food?
For how many tears
I wished to eat?
Now my food
Has been denied,
Why?
Is it to satisfy
Your lustful pride?
No, to help me?
Bah! I need no help.
So why annoy me!
I haven’t a moment of peace.
Let me fatten the sacrifice, in peace.
3/26/2013
Unplugged
For seven years
I mourned your loss,
Like a dog,
They ended your misery.
That ill fated day
Was the start of my agony.
For how long must I live
With that memory?
