These are a few of the many poems I've written that I feel are worth bothering to look at, or that I am willing to share. I do hope you enjoy them.
Silent Dancer
Hidden Prayer
Frenzied Step
Beauty Flare
Ever Upward
Ribbon Grey
Touch The Trees
And On Its Way
I see myself in the dancer's eye
The dancers own reflected in mine
But for a moment, the sweet steps pause
I catch my breath as the dance goes on

Blood Roses
I bend to pick it up
And twirls it, idly in my hands
thinking
The blood rose

red down my arm
Dripping the pain he felt for me.....
he....?
Was it a he?
Maybe it was a she.....
I dont know
I never know
I only know love
hate
pain
betrayal
and exhaustion.
I wish I knew death....
I know her.
She is my friend, my consort
I dance with death
and she sleeps at my door
waiting
for my next love
my next hate
my next victim.
For the blood roses to wither
and die
one by one and

into her hands
That why she came
thats why she always comes
I love death
and i hate her
She takes from me everything
and for that
i loathe her
Yet in return
she gives
all the love and loyalty
that those she takes from me
could never offer
and for that
i cling to her
like a child to its mother.
She bears a bouqet of blood roses
that cry.
Weeping

their crimson tears
for eternity.
Blood roses,
Die for me please.

Fragile Flame
the fire is a mistress harsh
yet gentle in her way
and softly into her embrace
i fall each end of day
It leaves a pretty painful bruise
but i no longer feel
the fire has destroyed my all
consuming what was real
i watch impassive faced
my blood begins to flow
release me from reality
creul life im letting go
this endlessness and faithlessness
consumed by flaming hell
i rise with every searing wave
and ride each broken swell
so beauty falls to darkness
the light bows to the same
make me one with eternity
let none now know my name
i walk upon the dustless sands
of plains beyond the stars
and echo myself into the silence
shatter my glass heart
the lightlessness a comfort
i rest my weary eyes
i let the fire take my all
and leave me where i lie
my spirit wanders on and on
no longer of this world
but one of empty painlessness
my peaceful blissful hell
it is my own choosing
as all who venture there
an eternal decision none regret
there's no emotion here
gently i caress the fire
in turn it comforts me
the fire is my life, my love
the one thing left i see
it has destroyed all that i hate
consumed all that i feared
ill wander with my fragile flame
keep it forever near...

Fade
Scream across the dusty plain
A wraith of wrath you writhe in pain
To blissless torture here you strayed
A wraith of wrath here now you stay
In endless anguish and reckless hate
You're left in despair and eternal wait
Now turned to purposes you once shunned
Abandoned to wander where nigh shines the sun
You're lost where demons dare not go
Ni'er up above nor down below
But plains of torment that drift afar
Somewhere beyond the faded stars
In listless wastes once angels roamed
Now none but wraiths can call it home
The stars have faded grey and red
No glory but harbingers of the dead
Your ebony caverns of crystal and fear
Ever now echo your shrieks of despair
Where once were ever faeries fair
No pureness again shall venture there
Your echoed shrieks across the plain
By none shall ever be heard again
The ragged waste that once was you
Is left to face your harshest truth
Alone you rule your kingdom of sin
And fade to nothing, a wraith on the wind...
~~~
One
One life to live in misery
One protest to scream silently
One dawn to come in crimson red
One river run as innocents bled
One eve to fall so quietly
One night to break in agony
One friendship lost to bitter greed
One desperate act in utmost need
One forgotten, wasted away
One remembered but not by name
One who died in battle fierce
One from misguided arrow's pierce
One lord to rule o'er all the lands
One shamed and banished to the sands
One scream swept away on winds
One herald of our bitter end
