The Damned Dragged under the earth. Pulled apart by past demons. My soul burns brightly. The Forsaken Lost and forgotten, Swimming in the river Lethe. Soul lost forever. The Redeemed Pulled out of deaths grip. Ascending stairway of light. Forever shining.

Cycles – 3 Haikus
Death Fear racks my body. Holding me underwater. Lungs burn for freedom. Limbo Starring down my past. Fighting for my very life. Strength bursts from my soul. Rebirth Transforming my fear. Into a source of power. Surviving the day.
Paradoxical Conundrums
Trapped in an open box. Plagued by an unseen pox. Stuck in wet cement. Unsure of life’s intent. Broken without a scar. Running, but can’t go far. Drowning in an empty pool. Benevolent but truly cruel. Problematic strife, Leads to a deathlike life.
Psychotic Episode
I’ve had many ups and downs. Some days I feel like I am slipping back into the void. When I say “void”, I am talking about the dark pit I’ve fallen into in the past. A place I haven’t been back to in years. I have visited this vile hellhole and gotten my toes wet, … Continue reading Psychotic Episode
Drastic – 3 Haikus
Running Away From Darting for the door, Overwhelmed by childhood fears. Flashbacks in the wind. The Choice False smiles mask sadness. Pain reflected in dead eyes. One way out of life. Between Life and Death Death watches over me. One decision frees my soul. I choose to live life.
Lost
As I stagger towards these eroded shores, Fog creeps out from unknown pores. Phantasms appear and they circle me. Creatures born of wrath and cruelty. They cackle out as they get near, And I fall back in paralyzing fear. Your specter glows so bright, The ghostly figures fade from sight. You spared my life, though … Continue reading Lost
Deepest Part of Me
(This poem is dedicated to the Greek poets, playwrights and authors, who helped me fall in love with the art of story telling.) In the darkest corners of my mind, Chronos holds a clock, that he begins to wind. It opens up a secret door, Full of skeletons and more. Deeper in the darkest part, … Continue reading Deepest Part of Me
Nightly
Awakened by silence... The absence of you lays leaden on my heart. I sit alone in this room tearing myself apart. Nothingness is my only friend, It stays with me until the bitter end. Nightmares are the byway to see you again. I need them, I hate them, God please... Amen Sleepless and anxious I … Continue reading Nightly
Darkness -3 Haikus
Loss Rain beats on my face. I stand by an empty grave. You are gone, I’m lost. Alone Awakened by fear. Blindly pawing for your touch. Grieving in the dark. Sunbeam In the darkest night, When all is but lost and gone. You are my sunbeam.
For You
Trying = Crying My soul bleeds for you. Crying = Dying There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you. Dying = Sacrifice I gave it all for you.
