A Dark Shadow

Cold desolate eyes reflect a convoluted scene
Calmly bestowing visions of a dark misanthropic dream
Clearly characterizing this cruel world as a dark deep well
I live every day surrounded by the vicious depths of hell

But I know there's only so far to fall
If at the bottom, the water does not drown me
I find venemous serpents who hungrily surround me
Taking my life is their only desire
I will be lost for the light is too far to see
Assuring no end of this crushing isolation for me

I live day by day, waiting for a way
A fork in the road
I wander this dreary path hopeless as could be
The only fork I see is the one embedded in me
Stabbing me in the back, I'm defenseless,
 And uprooted like a tree

Can you feel the hate, pain and disdain disseminating from my brain?
Wreaking havoc on society, I am lust and greed
Everything you don't want to see or be
But don't forget, when you close your eyes I am still here
Corroding your soul, filling you full of dread
Resurging daily like the hairs on your head

I shroud your life with scorn and hate
Never early, never on time, never late
My emptiness is filled by the hearts on which I feed
Malevolently gorging on your body, mind and soul
Leaving only when there is nothing left to bleed

I am your disgust, your fear, and your hate
I am everything that is wrong with you
I am your sickest and cruelest fate
I am death

Plenary Introspection

Im more looped than a knot.
Im a convoluted, twisted, and contorted thought.
Searching seemlessly for sun among skies filled with falling sleet,
I feel it come down, freeze below my feet.


Thoughts are a reckless train,
riding hellbound, departing from the brain.
Unveiling the mask I recognize,
I am blind as I see through my own eyes.


A fleeting, passive stare,
fades like smoke exhaled into air.
The smoke rides the furious winds that blow,
embarking on a journey, pace never to slow.


Swiftly sailing by,
revelations pass at the blink of an eye.
Sand storms sift a simple mind,
stripping humanity, sanity is left behind.


My detatchment from reality inhibits my morality,
bringing in question my mortality.
Friend or foe, the truth always shows, invoking a chilling blow, or emitting a radiant glow.
