Thorns-And-Roses

I cry for that girl I know Who wants to slit her wrists I cry for that girl I know Who wants to feel Death’s kiss I cry for that poor lost soul Bleeding as she falls I sob, uncontrollable As she tries to end it all A faint smile upon pale lips Dead eyes that speak of want To end her pain; for another chance At the life she never got Sickly pools of blood Reek of agony and despair The coppery smell of wasted life Stains the heavy air All she wanted was freedom Just a sip: a taste And yet she never realized That her death was just a waste In trying to end the torment She only caused more pain Death doesn’t kill suffering It onl

The Queen of Lies The trees all whisper Speaking of her blackened cries The stars reach out to kiss her The maiden with the blood red eyes Walking lonely on the Earth Leaving ashes in her wake Blood drips down from smiling scars The grins she knows are fake Offering forth the poisoned apple ÒOne bite is all you need.Ó Inspiring fear, murder and sin Through the words she continues to feed Pulsing with seductive beauty Temptation beyond compare The alluring spider in her web of lies Just waiting to ensnare Slipping through the shadows Sneaking through the night Ruining the pure of heart And staining the snow white Flying on

If you could see my heart You’d know it’s cold as stone If you could see my broken soul You’d know I am alone No longer feeling anything Inside my shattered mind My world is so horribly dark The truth is lost; I’m blind What is faith? What is love? Only what I don’t posses Scarred pale face Thick black blood Sins I dare not confess I’ve built a new reality My shield from the world Rejecting any hope or care As my life becomes unfurled Forever lost in blackened roads Stuck in this empty dream It no longer matters; I don’t care Because all I can do is scream.

Resonance I can see the two stars glisten Diamonds on a field of black You can hear it if you listen A story, which we do lack The soft whispers of harmony That kiss the gentle sky A sweet, singing melody That makes the cold moon sigh The breath, the life, the soul Of every living being The quiet, the calm, the lull As the Earth continues to sing It speaks of death and war and pain But birth and life as well Everything that is and was These invisible lips shall tell And I lay in my shadowed mind Shaking in wonder and fright Yet I may rest easy, for I have this Song To guide me through my night I can see the two stars glisten Diamonds in the

It seems That I No longer have time for things anymore It seems That I Can't love anyone like I did before Work, work, work It's all I ever manage To get done Whatever happened To carefree days Taking naps in the Sun Where did they go The days of laughter and joy Where did they run off to Hiding, clever and coy Perhaps that they are lost And I won't live them anymore But I wouldn't count on it Because I know what I'm searching for.

Souless eyes And a heart to match Bound with blackened lies Covered in blood-red ash Can it even be called  "life" When all your dreams are dead The memories you so loved You rip, you tear, you shred You live on in your self-inflicted state Screaming, pleading, dying Sadness and love turns to hate Shrieking, sobbing, crying The perfect, nice Oasis Your lovely Garden of Eden The hopes, the perfection, the graces Have turned you into a demon Yet you blindly fail to see The misery you create You choose to deny The gates of Hell that await You fail to see The stains your black wounds bleed So clear,  and so terrifying Is yo

Before I returned home for the night, I decided to take a quick trip to the ruins of the Library. Even though I knew that there was little hope of finding anything of value in the charred remains, I still continued to search almost every night, praying to find any books or text that had escaped the blazing inferno of the Capitol. I was always hungry for knowledge. Even the large, thick textbooks they gave out in school did little to satisfy my appetite. They were all just filled with the lies of the Capitol, and how "The Capitol gloriously and mercifully pulled the Districts out of the ruins of chaos during the dark times." Propoganda, I beli

You knew that all Was not well When your sun dipped down And the Darkness fell The stars began To turn to ash A gaping chasm opened Like a bleeding gash All the pretty colors Bleed to red The cold wet life The black ground bled And we delve deep Into the forbidden abyss Embracing the emptiness Of Death's cold kiss And we cry Stone tears Of sadness and dismay Never to see again The golden light of day.

War is glorified Through toys and games No one is horrified At the bloody stains They laugh as they kill The enemies on the screen They smile as they hear The sound of gunshots and screams "Watch me shoot him in the head!" "Watch me kill this guy!" They just laugh happily and point Watching everyone die Now try hard to remember Don't be a fool War is violent and horrifying Not "epic" and "cool".

We all scream We all cry We all live And we all die Always turning The sands of time Always burning The hour's chime We refuse to accept Our pitiful mortal fate We continue to deny Until it's too late We plead and beg for more More hopes More lies But alas we cannot For time flies.
