She is sin 
She is fragile
She is devious
Her skin drips with sin
She loves dead things
She has pale skin and dark eyes
She is beautiful
She is poison
She is crazy
She is my dark angel
And she lives inside me.

The Wrong People

How pathetic  
Will I still be sitting here
In 20 years crying,
And writing about all of the
People who used and abused me?
 
Will I spend my afternoons
Telling you off in my head
Only to hide when the opportunity
Presents itself?
 
Will I still feel less than you?
Will I still feel despair?
Will I still long be beautiful?
Will I still long to be loved?
Will I have real friends?
Or will I find myself
Stuck with you or your clones
 
On a bad day
I believe your words
And feel like shit
Showing it only after you’ve gone.
 
On a good day
I can smile
And fucking slit your throat
Drinking the blood of the beast
And relishing in my feat

Untitled

What if nightmares turned real?
What if fears came to life?
In the darkness of your room
In the corner out of sight.
 
There could sit your fear
Your terrors turned true
It will rise and stalk
It’s coming for you!

Not Alone

You’re alone in your room
When you hear the sound
You turn on the light
And look all around
 
Nothing in the light
Do your eyes see
But that doesn’t mean
The demon doesn’t be
 
You turn out the light
And lie tight in your bed
While the demon stands over you
With it’s claws near your head
 
You hear the sound once more
And sit up with a fright
Yet nothing’s revealed
In your bedroom light
 
You laugh at yourself
And try to lie still
As the darkness surrounds you
And gives you a chill
 
You close your eyes tight
Tell yourself nothing’s there
But before you inhale
The demon’s claws will tear
 
It rips out your throat
And you gurgle and cry
Not alone in the night
And now you will die.

Halloween Night

It’s called “all souls”
And festival of the dead
It’s called Samhain
And it’s older than said
 
The worlds of spirits
And life join as one
On this night of the year
October thirty one
 
Some people think
It’s all fun and games
But others know the truth
That lies hidden beneath names
 
The dead come out
And they like to play
They’re restless, some tortured
From their  living day
 
They feed on souls
Who are reckless with fun
Be careful this Halloween
That you’re not the next one

Lover Can You Save me?

Lover, cam you save me
From this hell’s fiery pit?
Can you please balance the scale
When it begins to tilt?
 
Can you restore my faith
In this dungeon of a life?
Can you bring back my sunshine
And the warmth of its light?
 
Can you fill me once again
With joy so clean and pure?
Lover, can you save me?
Do you have the cure?
 
Can you put your arms around me
And promise everything’s okay?
Can you take my pain and sorrow?
And keep it forever away?
 
Lover, can you save me?
From a mind that’s gone mad?
Lover, can you save me?
From a heart’s that’s grown sad?

Come on Fucker!

Here I stand in sin
Let the show begin!
 
I’m the bitch you blame
When you are filled with shame.
 
I’m the one smiling in the night
When you’re sick with guilt, begging for light
 
I’m the one you shit on freely
So you’re holier than thou…come on really?
 
I’m the curse, I’m the stray
Beware, I’ll creep up you one day
 
Through the darkness my black eyes peer
I am the one, whom you should you fear.
 
I carry no mark of the beast
But I know the secrets of which you keep.
 
I Once trusted you to be a friend
So now friend, I guess this is the end.
 
Your closet door I did place ajar
Your skeletons are loose, they’re never far.
 
Here I am, I stand in sin,
Come on fucker! Let the show begin!
 
Your weak, sensitive, friend of past,
Is raging, when hit with the stones you’ve cast.
 
I will break you in half, then once more
Your guilt will bubble in the glass I pour.
 
You’ll choke on your own fucking lies
And you’ll start to rot among the flies.
 
You have lost more then you’ll ever know
You should’ve not betrayed me, now I’ll show-
 
-the wrath of a god and demon combined
‘cause you’ll never know what lies behind-
 
-my dark eyes, and angels’ breath
haunted for life, consumed at best.
 
You’ll never shit on me again
And forever you will fear this end.
 
So here I am! I stand in sin!
Come on fucker! Let the show begin!
 
To my friend I call Betray
Rot in Pieces

Feel the Rage 

I am a little ball of rage inside
An anger that is so deep
It burns with the fire of a thousand suns.
And my soul it will forever keep
 
My brain won’t release
The injustices and memories
All that I am
Is what no one sees.
 
Weak in the eyes of my father
Odd in the eyes of my mother
Lost in the eyes of my brother
Strange in the eyes of another
 
A lifetime of anger
Is running through my veins
No love here
Just sadness and pain
 
My shoulders hold up so much
Sometimes I fear I’ll fall
But my rage keeps me going,
That’s it and damn, that’s all.

My Morbid Visions

Demons, they come to me
They flock in the night
They visit my bed
My neck they may bite
 
Sometimes in my dreams
My veins pump with rage
From all the shit
I put up with each day
 
And when my pills go down,
My delicate throat
My hazy visions
Make themselves known
 
Inside the caverns
And dungeons of my mind
Below the torture chambers
My demons you will find
 
From dark ponds they emerge
Sometimes bleeding into day
I have to watch out
My demons like to stray

Born In Sin

The wine flowed like blood
She thought she was safe
He had piercing blue eyes
And a handsome face
 
They drank and they laughed
They writhed in bliss
Her insides burned
With his blazing kiss
 
His seed was cold
Though his flesh was warm
In his eyes she saw flames
And a demon was born
 
He started to grin
And his face peeled back
His image changed
And his eyes turned black
 
She was no longer free
She was bound to him
And there I was
Born in sin.

Sweet N’ Psychotic

I can be like caramel
Dripping from your lips
I can move like honey
With a switch of my hips
 
I can taste sweet
And look like a flower
But if you’re not careful
Your soul I may devour
 
I can breathe life
As I can escape death
If you’re caught in my gaze
I may steel your breath
 
I can be foxy
I can be daunting
I can be icy
I can be haunting
 
So tread your ground careful
And watch for my bite
Because you may the next
Of my victims in the night
