I stood on the edge of darkness,
staring into the black ocean with grey eyes,
with warm sand beneath my feet,
warm tears on my face,
looking down.
They always told me not to look down,
but I couldn't resist;
I always wondered if I would be brave enough,
to stare death in the eyes.
Mommy, look at me!
I closed my eyes and took two steps forwards,
and spiraled off the edge,
remembering to point my toes
and throw my hands together above my head,
just like the ballerina I never was.
I always wondered what life would be like,
if I hadn't been so scared,
and given up everything I tried.
Mommy, I can fly!
I opened my eyes,
and stared into the bright blue sky,
soaring on clouds as cities spun beneath me,
falling backwards through time.
Bright lights filled the sky,
a white blindness bringing tears to my eyes,
for I could feel the hearts beating beneath me,
broken hearts that beat on;
not the hearts of cowards like me.
I closed my eyes and made a wish,
because I always wondered what it would taste like
to kiss a star,
I opened my eyes,
and soared through the black midnight sky,
a supernova passing by on my right,
nothing more than an explosion of scarlet gold
burned forever on my heart,
extinguished by the black hole on my left
that tore me farther and farther from my dreams.
Mommy, space is colder than I thought it would be.
Is this what death feels like?
My very own bright star,
growing weaker on the horizon,
because I never did make the right choice.
Mommy, was I really ever alive?
staring into the black ocean with grey eyes,
with warm sand beneath my feet,
warm tears on my face,
looking down.

Literature
Deny
Deny
With every look into my eyes,
You lie to me
Always caught up in your emotions,
And your selfish greed
You refuse to admit to anyone,
Just what you feel
And it's actions like this,
That make you less than real...
Alone...
Suffering...
Because you are always...
Denying...
When you deny!
You make no sense to me!
A life built on lies!
You end up hating everything!
And the cross that you bear,
Is not meant to be shared
It might be different if you cared...
But you deny...
Every word that you speak,
Is a whisper on the wind
You don't seem to understand,
Why you just can't fit in
You manufacture truth,
Literature
Apocalyptic Tendencies
When cold consumes heat,
And dark consumes light,
When the sun of the day
Is the moon of the night---
When death becomes life
And forgotten this strife,
We march, silent numbers,
On the blade of no knife.
Betrayal, repeal,
Long live this pain!
We wait; blissful agony
Lost our freedom again.
Though we're defeated,
We'll stand once more,
And those who come after
Won't see what we saw.
Literature
Battle Cry
We give and take everything we can,
Everybody's just looking for a reason to stand
To stand alone, and to stand tall,
But why is it that we stand right before we fall?
Everyone just wants to be loved in life,
So why is it so many are often denied?
To have it or to lose it, which is worse?
Sometimes life just feels like a curse
We stand! In the middle of a waking dream,
And it feels like everybody's losing everything!
We reject! This thing, called "reality",
And every mouth opens, and every mouth screams!
Everybody's got! This fire inside,
Even the ones who think it has died!
This is our battle cry! Wrenched from inside,
You can

This is the fall; this is the long way down,
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small...
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small...
