darkness (Remove filter)
Shine On
Don't ever let anyone convince you
to not share your soul songs.
The weaponized words
they hurl towards you,
are formed from
their own insecurities.
You get one shot,
in this time and space,
accompanied by
crabs in a bucket,
and a host of other cliches,
determined to control
your creative mind.
Give in to dark energy,
and you become it.
Rise above it.

Kiss Me
Kiss me
in the strawberry fields
of your mind.
Kiss me
in rhythm
and rhyme.
Kiss me
until darkness
becomes sunshine.
Kiss me
from pain
to pleasure divine.
Kiss me
through sands
of time.
Kiss me
beyond death
to life sublime.

Modus Operandi
Deny, deny, deny,
modus operandi,
when caught in a lie.
Can pass a polygraph
while looking you in the eye.
Knowing what’s done in dark
eventually comes to light,
until such time,
deny, deny, deny!

Shadow Dancing
My shadow dances with yours
in the abyss of silence,
head down, darkness all around,
waltzing towards sparks of light
from our melded soul.

Wild Life
Life is too full of people
willing to share their soul
to focus on those who
aren’t open to your light.
You were meant to soar with eagles,
not wallow with nocturnal wildlife.
While they may be beautiful,
mysterious, alluring,
they thrive in darkness,
a place you escaped long ago.

Gilded Cage
Time after time
I give you another chance
to prove you still care.
You respond with
the venomous bite
of a rattlesnake.
How much more
poison can I take
before I am consumed
by the same dark spirit
that possesses you?
I know I should run
far away
but I have convinced myself
of the old cliche...
better the devil you know
than the devil you don't.
I know what to ex...

The Void
Hey there lonely girl,
what are you doing wandering around
these dark places?
Don’t you know that
evil lurks about?
The void is littered
with those who will use you,
abuse you,
scar your soul for eternity.
Listen to my pleas,
I’m begging on bended knees,
move forward
towards the light,
no matter how tempting
the mysterious
shadows may be.
