Sing me a love song
Sing me to sleep
Sing until reality
is better than my dreams

Sing to me quietly
a tender whisper in my ear
Sing a song with meaning
that I will forever hold dear

Sing to me fondly
say you love me with song
Sing to me passionately
it's been far too long

Sing to me bravely
I don't care how you sound
Sing to me softly
and watch my heart pound

Now sing to me darling
Sing with love
Sing until I feel as beautiful
as the brilliant stars above.

Bloom

A gentle smile graced her face.

"I have something for you love." She whispered.

She cupped her hands beneath her breast and stared down at them peacefully.

Before he could grow curious, a brilliant scarlet rose appeared and began to slowly bloom beneath her fingers, it's silky petals a perfect contrast to the thorns that pricked her delicate and scarred fingertips.

A small drop of blood flowed from the tip of her finger to gently land on one of the flower petals, the color of her blood meeting the rose and blending instantly.

She lifted it to her nose to inhale the exquisite aroma.

She smiled before presenting it to her lover standing

RapunzelThe way towards the tower covered always by mist, cold, dark, accompanied by hidden whispers and tangled in between the branches of the night trees: an owl taking flight, the tree branches as voracious claws, whiny wolves and beasts… If you passed by sometime, the warm blood that goes through your veins would freeze, the ghosts that you hold inside you, those ones that you have locked up somewhere, would come out to devour you; only the dying yells will stay.

At the end of the world, there she was, inside, locked up.

The tower hold itself up over the trees, it was lost in between gray clouds and white snow. That turret was i

Dreaming of the Hero...Take me to that secret place
that only you know of,
with heroes and magic unknown.

For on your face is written,
a thousand fairy tales, and
songs of mermaids lone.

Your voice rings out, like
the church bells in morning.
Clear and resonant, like
salvation songs in offering.

In your eyes I can catch, a
glimpse of the clear April sky.
They unshackle my soul,
unbound and free to fly.

The blade that you bear,
slays demons of the deep.
Slashing through my darkness,
conquering vices that sleep.

I know you so well, by
the fragrance of your skin;
That lingers on, even in
the absence of your being.

Who are you?
O, where are you

Us"Have you ever thought about us?"

"Us?"

"Yeah."

"Us as in what?"

"Us as in you and me. What other 'us' is there?"

"There's the us where you're my best friend. Or the us where I have no idea what you mean half the time. There's the us where I doubt if there even is an 'us'. Then there's the us where you drive me crazy. That one's my favorite. In that us, all I want to do is hold you in my arms, and kiss you until you can't think."

Just a Game

I spent a while
thinking
about what we
could
be
together.

I spent a while
dreaming
about what we
could
perform
together.

I spent a while
wishing
about what we
could
do
together.

I spent a while
back
stepping
when you wanted
to take
a step
forward.

You made me so happy,
I thought it would be different.

You seemed so honest,
I dreamed of what could happen.

You seemed so perfect,
I wish it wasn

A Cyan SightIn front of broken promises and lies,
I choose to look away and close my eyes,
I'm an intruder in my own dreams,
In the end proved to be wrong-all of my beliefs.

In the dark,
I've seen a light,
A bright warm smile,
A cyan sight,
I thought I've found my savior,
But when I tried to take its hand,
It turned into dust,
"-…or was it just out of reach"
In a shadow I've put again my trust?

Falling into hollow,
I've lost my soul,
I got no more a light to follow.
Screaming out my lungs for help,
But there's nobody around to hear,
There's nobody to feel my fear,
Just a cyan sight,
That keeps shining in the dark.
But it's too f

Unknown

She admires the damage in others
Her twisted form of jealousy.

The breaking of a heart
And the touch of a razor blade
The only true pain she has ever known.

Her heart reaches for broken souls
Taking them into her cold embrace
To amend for her sick envy...

Her infatuation

Her melancholy

Her rage.

Her guilt for being ordinary
Knows no bounds.

As she clings to injured hands
Wishing to heal them

But secretly...
Wanting to be like them.

Her reason for which
Is still Unknown.

Counting Sheep1, 2, 3, 4
Counting white balls of fluff
in a large area covered in spring green and dots of pink and yellow
going over the fence

What a boring fence...
maybe if it had barbed wire
and it was painted bright purple!

23, 24, 25, 26
They're still going
over the pointy purple fence
their wool moving slightly in the breeze

This breeze does nothing
how about some strong wind
yeah and...rain
maybe lightning and thunder too

39, 40, 41, 42
I'm surprised the little creatures haven't blown away yet
soaked fur and still jumping
sheep really don't belong out in the rain

So to put them out of their misery
they can be giant frogs
giant

A HUG IS ALL YOU'LL NEED TO SAYIf There's Someone You Love, Someone You've Wronged
And You Don't Know What To Say -
Don't Shrug Your Shoulders, Giving Up Hope
Leaving It For Another Day

For Life's Wake Is Short, Don't You Know
There May Be No Words To Hear -
As You Place The Flowers, Shed Your Tears
Upon The Earth Holding Someone So Dear

Your Mind In A Daze, Emotions On Fire
Wishing You Could Turn Back Time -
As You Gaze Upon A Loved Ones Grave
Memories Of When Everything Was Fine

If There's Someone You Love, Someone You've Wronged
Don't Leave It For Another Day -
With Love In Your Heart, Hug Them Close
It's All The Words You'll Need To Say

Don't Let GoHold yourself tightly
let your nails draw blood
from material stretched too tight over shattered bones
sharpened points ripping at the seams
cutting away the last of his finger prints
embedded into your skin

When the ground starts to shiver
jump on the nearest passerby
feel for any grip possible
climb your way up his cracked spine

See the street that has trapped your memories under its pavement
feel them rush back to you in tsunamis, breaking the cities under your eyes
keep walking
crush your feet into the sidewalk
don't look back

Look at the mangled face staring back at you
it's 4 a.m. and you can still see the names he calle

Where I'm FromI am from small
Dark corners
Lurking
Observing
Yet, not judging

I am from other

I am from the
Factory assembly
Of the past
The present
And the future.

I am from the
Occasional mysteries
Sci-fi flicks, superhero
Remakes,
Classic Rock
(and maybe Punk)

I am from the

Of music and the

White NoiseSounds pulsing
Always near me
The sounds of life
The sounds of death

I hear this strange noise
As it rings around me daily
The noise of energy
The noise of fatigue

Deafening tones shake me
Distracting my thoughts
The tones of love
The tones of hate

Until the finally hour
When I hear a different sound
The toll of a bell rings out
The toll of a bell rings out to me

Endless Tears And Endless PainI'm lost and drowning,
Sinking and clawing
At the slippery rocks
Around me, missing.

I'm tired of fighting,
Fighting for my life.
There is no meaning
Anymore, it's gone.

Sobs wrack my body,
Tears run down my face,
Like rivers of pain.
Why won't they stop?

I'm trying to hang on
(Maybe just for you)
But hell, I can't keep
Holding on like this.

My mask is shattering
But no one sees it.
(Maybe they refuse to)
Will they notice the scars?

I thought I would
Be just fine
I thought everything
Would finally be okay.

It's all a lie.
I just want to die.

In the end it's always the sameWe have to talk
You go ahead
Without hesitance I follow you

What have I done wrong
Where did I go
That I turn in circles

You explained to me
That you know everything better than I do
And I know you do

Time again
Right or left
Where have I not been

You go on
Without turning around
You know way too much of me

Doesn't matter how far
Doesn't matter how long
In the end it's always the same

I am here
And you are there
Even though I was right behind you

“There's nothing wrong with you baby.”

“Then why do they all pick on me?!”

“They just don't know any better.”

“Well can't someone enlighten them?! I'm sick of living like this!”

“It doesn't matter what they think sweetheart.”

“I know! I don't know why I still care but...”

“I promise you, it'll get better.”

“How do you know...?”

“Look at me baby.”

“...”

“You're perfect just the way you are.”

“There's got to be something wrong with me...”

“No baby. Who you love is your business, and it's not a decision you can make. It's made for you when you're born, and there's nothing wrong with that. You're no different from anyone else. You're beautiful and perfect just the way you are, and I will always love you. I promise.”

“Do...do you really mean that...?”

“With all my heart.”

“...Can I ask you something?”

“Anything.”

“Do you think I'll fall in love someday like you and Dad?”

“I think you will baby. But...”

“...But?”

“No man or woman will ever love you as much as your Mom does.”

“Ha ha, shut up Mom... I love you too.”

There are So many things for me to say about this deviation I don't even know where to begin.
I will say this though:
This will be the same thing I tell my future child (or children) if they are a part of the LGBTQ community.

I can not stand prejudice in ANY way; whether it be racial, based on gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc...

I may not know what it's like to be ridiculed for my sexual orientation, but I do know what it's like to be bullied, as well as made fun of for my religious beliefs. But I honestly can't imagine how hard it must be to be ridiculed just for being who you are.

This was my way of saying It get's better, and I PROMISE you it does. Stay Strong, keep your head up, and always know that there is someone out there on this earth that loves and cares about you. It may even be someone you don't know.
