Scary Halloween Night
Scary Halloween Night The moon hangs thin and cold, Beneath the trees the shadows creep, What walks where daylight cannot reach,

Beneath the Moon of Hallow’s Eve
Beneath the Moon of Hallow’s Eve The shadows dance with amber light, The air is sweet with spice and night, When veils grow thin and worlds draw near,

Halloween Night
Halloween Night The moon hangs pale above the wood, Where shadows creep and dark has stood. What rustles there behind the tree, When night falls silently and free.

Don't Look Back
I. Don’t look back to see the tears in my eyes. II. You see me as the past and not the future you you want. III. But I’m the one

Goodbye, Kevin
Hello, my name is Warren. I am a Bernese Mountain Dog, and this is my home. I came here long before little Kevin was born. Mother and Father took me in, gave me soft beds, good food, and sweet treats every day. The vet would shake his head and tell them: too many tidbits — he will grow too round. But I only wagged my tail, happy and safe within these walls.

Buy a Better Light Bulb
Buy a Better Light Bulb I watched them fill the syringe with poison, then push it beneath the bark. They stood there in the morning sunshine, giving a living tree the dark.

Ideal
I can't express how long I've waited. How many nights I've dreamed of what our life would be like. We'll get every morning, Pick a favorite outfit for the day. By the end of the day, I'll learn more about you. My gut twists at the way I'll never see you. I want to scream at things for being unfair, But I'm holding onto hope that I'll see you someday. My morning Dawn, I'm not sure if we'll ever meet. I'm scared that I won't be able to bring you here, Nor do I want to be the reason you’re pushed into a hard, unlivable life. I've had dreams of holding you in my arms. So small, so aware, so much like me. Could imagine all the things you would be, From the easy life all through hard times. If I were better, I could bring you here. If my body were better, I wouldn't worry about imbalances getting in the way. What would I give to show you the life I wanted to give. My morning Dawn, don't you hear me? If the world were so much better, I'd have you here by now. I'm scared that at some point, my body will give out. Bleed and ruin itself before I even get the chance to breathe life. But I'm holding onto hope that I'll see you someday. Hear you laughing, hear you crying. Hear you walking all through life. If you don't come as my flesh and my blood I pray that you'll find yourself to me, And let me give the life and guidance you need. My morning Dawn, you're a beautiful dream. I'll wait for you in this life and any one after I'll be strong, be the one you can trust Till we meet, I'll keep you in my heart for all eternally.

There's nothing left. No doors to open. Nothing worth Pursuing. . Autumn breathes Its cold breath Across flowers Still dreaming Of their blooms. . They'll die. And nothing Will be left Except that Creeping frost. . The thing Touching Flowers with hands Meant for Metal. . The petals Drop And there's Nothing left To save. . Pretty flowers. Wind-snapped flowers. Hunched flowers. Writhing flowers. Aching flowers. . Is this what fate Has in store? A blossoming Beautiful only Because of its death? . Then I am doomed For a peak So gorgeous That the stars Fall at my feet. . Weeping from the Cosmic Knowledge That this Binds me. . Will the sorrows Ever Exceed Normal human Limitations? . The rules Will be Defined By the bones That remain. . And I am Destined To go up In smoke And flames. . Because the Bones I'll leave Behind are Beyond Beautiful.

The Quiet After The Storm
The Quiet After The Storm The morning came, the winds had gone, The world was quiet, the birds began their song, No more howling throughout the night, Just peaceful skies and the morning light.

The Winds Came to Destroy
The Winds Came to Destroy The winds came howling through the night, And gave us all an awful fright, The tail end of a hurricane came, And nothing outside looked quite the same.

Two Hearts, One Goal
Two Hearts, One Goal She met him on a rainy day, Outside a little shop; He held his coat above her head And waited for the rain to stop.
