I opened this box
I know he told me not to
I just couldn't resist
That was my forbidden fruit.

It was the only wrong I did,
My one mistake,
But I am allowed to have sins
I am just a woman made of clay.

I watched the darkness Embrace the Earth
Earth,that you,Mother Gaia,left us.
I watched the colors turn to grey.
Hate. Sickness. Envy. Lust.

Yes,I removed the lid
It wasn't even heavy
I guess I saved him somehow.
That trap wasn't even made for me.

But you know,
Zeus loves his sons.
He put a remedy at the bottom-
Hope-when you think all is done.

And I watched the centuries pass
Suffocating,drowning in my own "whys"
I could

Frankly my Dear!My heart broken, will it mend?
Many letters I have penned
Changed my tune, no longer defend
Frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

Dressed to kill, special night out
Date is late, my feelings he flouts
Knock on door, then I shout
Frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

Birthday present bought with care
Happy day we plan to share
Nose turns up, he will not wear
Frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

Painful prompt, trying to write
Aspiring poet up all night
Paper torn, ideas not right
Frankly my dear I don't give a damn.

Have you ever been in love,grandpa?

Why is something in my stomach pulling me down,grandpa?

Why do I feel sick?

Why do I have a need to throw up when I think of him,when I realize I miss him?

I need him,grandpa.
More than living beings need the sun.

You understand what I mean,dear.

I remember your stories,please tell them one more time.
All I need now is a cup of hot milk,without the cream,like what you used to make me when I was just a little girl,when I didn't know pain,when I didn't know love.

I want to listen,grandpa. I really do.

I am happy,yet why do I cry?

You found your woman. And I found him.

I need to touch him,look at him.

I just want to fall asleep in

Casanova

In the old town of Venice
The sin was born
One man, in the moonlight,
Took a woman's soul

She got doomed
But it seemed fair
That one night with him
With nothing left to tear

Centuries have passed
Even the rain turned cold
The sin lived
In the other men's blood

He looked at me and said
"Be the flame not the moth"
He was hypnotizing,
But he's Casanova, he can't love.

He likes numbers
And I was 24
I gave my body to his arms
I used to cry back then, but not anymore

That one night,
I remember it well
The stars came down
With no words to tell

Because we were one
Under the endless sky
The morning you left
Every

Periwinkles and Black HolesPeriwinkles and black holes
Resting underneath suns as dark as coals
An arm signed by a razor
Caused by a heart covered in craters
A field of violet abyss
Swallowed by black amiss

Neon RainbowAfternoon, I sleep awoken,
with a mess inside my mind.
In a place i'll know forever,
I will never leave behind.

But then cobalts call me, sky.
Life in blossom, firefly.

A smile once appears in me,
In rainbow palette,
With a wondered look,
a small sihouette.

Happiness, a burst of sweetness, joy.
Dash of love, and i am just a boy.

A spectrum, imploding heart,
there's no side to back.
Just need breathe, and be alone,
retrieve the attack.

Beauty at day, shining arc.
Fades out away, It's a dream.
When it's not, during night.
Raises upon neon beam.

Now i am able to see.
Not what is, but what will be.

Dream. and never sleep,
I

Song Writing SeaShe can't write,
Not at this time.
In a sea of silence,
She's losing her mind.

The words are flowing
out of reach.
Crashing waves,
Silencing speech.

The ocean roars
and beats the rocks.
It plays a bass
that will not stop.

She bobs on the surface
then falls underneath.
Slowly she rises,
Finding her feet.

The pencil lifts
and finds its way to her lip.
She zones out
and chews at its tip.

A lightning bolt strikes,
Her pencil flies to the page.
It scribbles crazily,
Almost in a rage.

She can't speak,
Not at this time.
In a sea of words,
She's finding her mind.

Monument to a Ruined ManI see you now.

The magnificent velvet and silk flags of your name
Now fester and rot in tatters.
The ornate gold and jewels, now dull and blackened with age,
Hang limply from the brittle, yellowing scaffolds
Of your admiring subjects, their mouths gaping open in one last,
Mocking cackle,
All loyalty long since disappeared.

And here you stand
Alone in the silence of your own undoing-
No longer a ruler, or even a man, but a shell-
The hands whose wizened palms I once worshipped
Have crumbled slowly into nothing.
Those lips, whose stately curve I once adored,
Now worn and cracked from centuries of smiling.

But your smiles were n

AvalonAvalon

Disaster struck upon the Earth
Chaos spread like a wildfire
And the humanity split
Turning on one another

Soon nothing was left but the bare dust of the burned
The virus spread and killed everyone
And in time the dead came back to life
Hunting the living and punishing them for their sins

The Armageddon came and we couldn't escape
The world fell in to the dust of destruction
With each day the living decay as the dead arise
With each moment the remains of humanity fade

The sun blazes over the dying lands
The dry rivers and burned fields
Only the road keeps on going forever
Only the road keeps us alive

We move from

Twenty OneAll my life has been a shuffe,
cut it now, let's make a deal.
For, my hands can't keep on playing,
to this end is all i feel.

What you have to keep ongoing?
Tel me stranger, times of last.
But, I'm suited man of business,
both our times you follow fast.

'Do you know about my story?'
Asked the soldier, breathing air.
Shady stranger with no answer,
'Better now, we'll play it fair'

First of all, the lose of loved one,
Times of that, I wasn't. Gone.
Lonely wounded walking stranger.
Ace of Hearts, I am alone.

Long before i fell for pardon,
Banner-figter, proudly chose.
Now, the ghosts of my ambition;

Unnatural Decay Under a Strange Church
There's a white shelled transvestite ladybug crawling across the word "Underwear" on a Craigslist browsing computer screen in the public library.

Then it flew away into a bee's nest in the attic. Here is your epitaph: nettle tincture honey is a sweat curse and friendly lies are a pained dessert. Pretend that bee sting poison is an opium syringe, ladybug.

But the scarlet letter was her bloody joke when a gay social assassin posed as rogue busy bee named Ahab, crouched about to shatter a burgundy shelled secret like a harpoon through a stained glass window.

Across the library St. Asmodeus felt a chilled dagger through his lead filled heart

Die With MeDie with me in the morning haze
To make our beating hearts unite.
Die with me on the darkest days
As we bask in each other's light.
Die with me when the stars align
And all the world begins to cry.
Die with me as our souls entwine
When angels tears fall from the sky.
Die with me as time ticks away
Those resplendent twilight hours.
Die with me as the pine trees sway
In the fields of golden flowers.
Die with me as I hold you tight
So we may share our last goodnight.

Watcher of the NightHe waits in the shadows
Watching and learning
Trying to resist
His unconquerable yearning

An actor of rare disguise
Covering half-truths with unfinished lies
His plans twist and turn
Taking years for fruition
After which he disappears
A forgotten apparition

While lesser men succumb
To the beckoning temptation
He stands regardless
Steadfast by his station

Vigil of the darkness
Watcher of the night
Countless men have tried
To evade his inhuman sight

He is the sum of his fears
For he chooses what he wants to be
He has uncertainties, he has doubts
But is afraid intentionally

He tends the shades of the mighty
And the shadows

Midnight DanceYour fingers slide in between mine,
Our hands perfectly entwined.
Your arm wraps tenderly around my waist,
As you whirl me around and we trace
imaginary patterns on the floor.
Everything about you I adore,
as my head lies gently on your shoulder,
And we dance a dance that is older
Than time itself.

Your scent engulfs my mind,
And brings with it memories so refined,
Filled with pure emotion,
To you I promise complete devotion.
My senses are drowned out,
So that there is no room for any doubt,
Past worries and fears I twirled
As I fell into another world.

Hope and love fill my heart
As we perfect this dying art.
My dreams fal

BulimiaI put my head up,looked at the mirror.
"Look at you",I said.
"Your eyes are red of crying,
Your face blushed of pain,
You have a scar on your hand,
Thanks to your teeth".
I really tried to be perfect,mama,
I really am trying.
Why do I keep hurting the ones I love?
And my heart is beating fast.
I think I am gonna fall.
Catch me,darling,don't disappoint me.
I need the smell of your skin on me now.
I love you.
My thoughts are lost in the paths of their perfection.
I am a stranger there.
And I was still looking at the mirror.
Talking to myself.
Staring at my own bulimic reflection.
"Look at you!You are beautiful even when

The girl who loves

Here,take it!
Play with it.
Squeeze it,
Then throw it.

It's yours,darling.
I don't need it,not without you.
I am cold,dead when you're away.
You might as well break the son of a bitch into two.

I told you,stay away from me.
I am pure sin,I bathe in others pain.
But look what happens when a sin meets the Devil,
Dancing in the dark,kissing in the rain.

I never knew there could be someone,
Someone as sinful as me.
My darkness,your touch has enchanted my soul.
And now,you're calling me your queen.

But what are we,my love?
Just a couple of mortals gone to the bad?
In the end,we are all humans
Without many words left to be sa

Roxanne

"Good evening,everybody
My name is Roxanne and I am gonna tell you a story of a woman.
And that woman is me."

These streets are so dark,
They are pulling me down,down into the night.
How did I get here?
I am in the embrace of THE red light.

They all want my body,
And they love it for a while,
Then,suddenly,I feel cold.
I leave the room with a fake smile.

But that night,
The color of love had my dress,
But what everyone could see was j

You are my other half,amore

I pulled your shirt to my body,unzipped,
To the beat of your heart.
Your head was close to my face.
You smiled,your lips almost on mine.
Having your arms around me is what I live for.
I looked at your eyes and asked "why".
Why here,why now,why me?
I like the scent of your hair,
And I absolutely love your cigarette's smoke,
In my hair,on my lips,between your fingers.
Our bodies intertwined,it just feels right.
I adore your whisper on my ear,makes me feel safe.
Your warm breath on my neck,mixed with your kisses
Makes my body loose control. You drive me crazy.
My soul is so close to yours,never let me go.
I need you,your lips fi

Have you ever been in love,grandpa?

Drowned with the Atlantis(Even Cupid cries)

Your skin on mine
Hold me like the mortals do
Sing me a lullaby
Darling,all I have is you.

Your hand in my hair
Your lips upon mine,
Even gods have a soul,
And I'm just one of them nine.

I'll dance my prayer,love.
Go forward and never turn
All this time,I thought,
This city will burn.

Who knew his arrow would break?
No one asked can gods cry.
His tears will drown us,
Give me your love,teach me to fly.

Cupid's tears touched my skin.
It made a red scar.
His wings are almost gone.
Did he,too,lose the one he loved?

I wanted to help
But you held me there
Don't become a mortal,
It's too great a burden to bear.

Lucifer's fall

Look at yourself!!Look!
You're the brightest star of them all.
See,darling,you're the most beautiful one,
But still,you chose to fall.

Your wings shattered,
And your soul went black,
Did you ever regret it,my dear?
You keep it silent,there's no way back.

You left heaven behind you,
Do you miss it? I know I do,
I miss the innocence and the glitter,
The sweetness of the clouds and the truth.

I miss my wings,
Yes,honey,I lost them too.
See,when you fell,
I jumped. I fell with you.

I just wish you'd take me in your embrace,
Hold me tight and never let me go
Your sinful lips on mine,
Send me the wind and I'll know.

I can feel you all over,
My body is sinful,my soul is almost gone
I know the taste of your scent,love,
And I know your body is still warm.

And one day,I just felt the known heat;
I felt your lips on my neck,your arms around me
I looked at the mirror,how fucking good we are together.
And in that darkness,I knew,you'll never leave.
