Would You, Could You?

If I had air for a mind and stone for a heart
Would you love me still or rip me apart
If I had water for blood and fire for skin
Would you still look at me in lust or just see a sin?
I ask not in arrogance but wonder and pride
I have so many secrets that I wish to confide
My sleep never ends yet I remain forever awake
In pain from these regrets I once did partake
So tell me now, if I was a monster would you see
That even as a beast I still am just me

The Beastie

hidden in the darkest recesses of my mind,
Hides an unmistakeable creature.

Fangs sharper than the shiniest steel
Its heart colder than ice.

Its eyes are of fire and lust.
Lust of blood and pain

Like the forever living demons that fly through hell
Bending the truth and truthing all the lies.

Forever loathing the angels abouve
Those who fly free with grace

the creatures toy with my mind
with my emotions and my soul

It has hurt me and it has hurt those around me
This creature is my love for you

The Curse of Kehama

I charm thy life,
From the weapons of strife,
From stone and from wood,
From fire and from flood,
From the serpent’s tooth,
And the beast of blood.
From sickness I charm thee,
And time shall not harm thee;
But earth, which is mine,
Its fruits shall deny thee;
And water shall hear me,
And know thee and flee thee:
And the winds shall not touch thee
When they pass by thee,
And the dews shall not wet thee
When they fall nigh thee.
And thou shalt seek death,
To release thee, in vain;
Thou shalt live in thy pain,
While Kehama shall reign,
With a fire in thy heart,
And a fire in thy brain.
And sleep shall obey me,
And visit thee never,
And the curse shall be on thee
Forever and ever.

Bread & Blood

(graham russell)
Im not afraid of losing you or saying good-bye
If someone needs you more than me, I will understand why
Id never stand between someone whos holding your heart
But I cant let a superstition tear us apart
Who has the right to speak fire from above
If heaven is away from you, that is the place I will give up
For falling in love cant be taking these lips from the cup
Dont fill her mind with bread and blood
Dont confuse strength with pride and mud
I have a faith in love thats thicker than all bread and blood
Im not afraid to face the truth of what I believe
If love was never meant to choose, it could never succeed
And we may always stand alone in everyones sight
And be the judge unto ourselves between wrong and right
Who puts a price on eternitys sin
Who throws the first stone shall search for perfection again
For you are the reason that pleasure was taken from the pain
Dont fill her mind with bread and blood
Dont confuse strength with pride and mud
I have a faith in love thats thicker than all bread and blood
I wont see you cry, should it make you cry
Dont fill her mind with bread and blood
Dont confuse strength with pride and mud
I have a faith in love thats thicker than all bread and blood
Dont fill her mind with bread and blood
Dont confuse strength with pride and mud
I have a faith in love thats thicker than all bread and blood

Reflections

She looks in the mirror
And all she sees is me
Not the perfect person
Shes always wants to be

So now she will break
This awful connection
And show me the ultimate
Heart-breaking rejection

But even though she tries
To break me with all her might
She cant hurt what isn't here
No good will come from this fight

Screaming no longer helps
Nor do the marks and scars
Nothing will stop us now
We have already gone too far

She claws at her skin, ours
My regrets are in her eyes
Her regrets mingle in my mind
Neither understands truth in lies

Broken shards lay at her feet
But still she sees her reflection, me
The monster inside, silent fear
The beast that only we can see
The being that only she, me, we can be

Talons of a Gothic Mind

She of talons, borne from gothic mind-
Steel of blue her chilly stare,
Pitch of black her fetid blood-
Whence there came an evil flare

To terrorise the weeping kind
Befogged in mental mire; to rape
The shore with phallic waves -
And all for lust, her one desire:

Corrupt the sand of innocence
Without a case for penitence,
Or cause for such as reticence -
While coming on her priapismic fire.

Human Or Not (vampire)

My heart is hollow
Like the beat of a drum
My skin is pale
Like the color white
My teeth are now fags
They lust for the teats of blood
But not just any blood
The blood of what I use to be
But I’m I not still human
What is it that makes me not
The hollow beat of my heart
The paleness of my skin
Or the lust for blood
Has your heart never been sad
Have you never spent
All summer in doors
So if it is not those things
Then it must be my lust for blood
We all need it
But I just need it a little more
So I am different but I am still human

Possession of Desire

i am in so much blood filled
state of lust, robust lust
taking over me
each inch of skin it tingles
and all i want is you

overwhelmed am i
and shaken
it's been years since i've
been taken
and all i want is you

you tease just being here
your eyes your smile
come near to me i love you
not only this but lust you
i want you i want you
and all i want is you

be with me now, forever
leave me, never never
i will hold your hand
and take you
i will always love and lust you
be mine, love i want you
and all i want is you

Pain Pain by cedrick dennis

Pain Pain over here pain over there Pain in my heart pain in my soul Pain in my mind Pain in my skin pain in my bones Pain being caused left and right Pain being caused till the heart bleeds red Pain being caused till the skin and bone rip Pain being caused till you break into tears Pain at school Pain at home Pain in my head, pain in my heart Pain in my mind, pain in my soul Pain happening in my sleep Pain happening in my thoughts Pain happening when I’m alone Pain happening in the shower, in my room, in my bed, in my house where I’m all alone Pain happening every hour, every minute, every second of my life Pain caused by anger and hate Pain caused by hurt Pain caused by greed Pain caused by sorrow and depression Pain caused by grief and confusion Pain caused by your family and friends Pain caused by the world Pain caused by people you love Pain driving me crazy Causing me to take pills till it fills up my veins I go to sleep never to wake up and see that light The light that will end my pain for good

Love or Lust

The drought kills the thirst
Harvest is a rarity
Dry winds dance in skin deep heat
Leaves abandon trees
Grounds crack in branches
I walk in pain
As needles climb up my feet
My lungs shiver of dryness
My heart pumps like a drum beat
Somewhere under the canopy
Of the velvet sky
A woman in tan
Waving to me
To join her party
Dig and cover
A gravely game
Insecurity permissible
Immaturity formidable
When you incline
Rose isn’t dead yet
But for you to grow them
In a killing field where
Love and lust
Collide

PS: Love and lust come from the mind.Its all in the mind and from the mind.Heart is only to make love look so nice and beautiful.Heart only function as a generator to supply nutrients and oxygen to our bodies.If the heart stops, we die.Love and lust is a mind game.It will remain in the brain depend on how serious or critical the amount of love that we have recieved.
Remember it takes two to tango.Love can not fly with a single wing.

If Someone Loved Leaves They Leave

You have broken my heart.
And again I find myself mending.
To know love is to know,
When the getting over it...
Never ends!

And glad I am to recognize,
Pain is part of realizing...
When to let go.
But the feeling of having known it,
Love...
Is a pursuit that seems to remain forever.

And if someone loved leaves...
They leave.
But love...
Is a pursuit that seems to remain forever.

Witch

Eyes, rivulets of red that run beneath a canopy
Of green-tinged lashes –
Tear blood playing on the grey-white skin,
Stretched across the twin peaks of cheekbone.

That slender pillar of a neck –
Magnet of eroticism, blinds to
Veins gorging on the flesh,
Dancing under pulse of blood –
Or whatever pumps inside.

Coal-black lips word intentions –
Castigations – variations of the horror
She was born to be.

O the hair! – a flame-orange avalanche
Thundering down to Hell
Where seething mounds of torn bodies lost their souls
To viler wants and fouler holes of
Scatological minds.

And the plunge of lavish breast –
E’er the siren’s weapon! –
Baits the mortal man –
Were he to chance his hand across
The certainty of doom.

But still we go, our weakness on display –
Hers will not a challenge be to see to our decay.

Mourning Pride

If just I could run away from you
Years, days, minutes all became the same
Since The day that we have met
The colors of the life are lost and tired in my mind
Nothng stood there the same
People colors and the friends
Everything and everyone I forgot
Mourning, for my pride nothimg can please my mind
Wounded my heart will cry
Forever the flame will stay
There where you and I oneday were
Lovers the promises of love will remain
Every while and while to give pain
Bleeding the heart and the pride
No peace again I will find
Till the day that I will die.

I know what the obsession is!

I know what the strike is
As I stroke stone against stone
So I know what the spark is!

I know what the rub is
As I rubbed heart against heart
So I know what love is!

I know what the burning is
As I burnt myself in the love
So I know what the fire is!

I know what the waste is
As I have been ruined in the greed
So I know what the lust is!

I know what the thirst is
As I have been sucked the blood
So I know what the bug is!

I know what the addiction is
As I have been addicted to wine
So I know what the obsession is!

I know what the memory is
As I have been experienced the break up
So I know what the hurt is!

The Love that wounds

Where does the sea
of your love foam
in the love that wounds,
love of flesh, of skin?

I see the blood
of your tender heart,
empty eyes of stone,
saddened smiles of sorrow.

You with your need,
eyes open as you sleep
letting loose arrows of flame
into the insomnolent night.

Body of lust
heart of torment,
whose shores
do your waves now caress
in the ocean of the night?

For the night is an ocean.

I Stick To My Point Darling

i stick to my point my darling
love and lust go hand in hand together
one cannot exist without the other
one cannot just love and not lust
for love will always like to last with lust

for what is this deep silence without the
noise of fire
the tongues of the sun
the pelvis of the moon
the fingers of tickling tiny cinders of stars

to the heavens of course, we heave, we bend,
show me what is kept inside your skirt
show me those breasts that enclose the
true beatings of the heart

i will love you and i cannot help but lust with you.
for i am both air and leaf, river and rock,
for i am both bird and sky, i am both mortar and pestle,
i am both sun and moon
pond and pebble
snake and grass

let me hold you then with the gentleness of my soft hands
let my tongue lick every corner of your skin
let me love you and eat you and swallow you
for by then, you become truly a part of me

immersed, flowing, running all over my mouth and veins.
my throat, my lips, to my finger tips.

let me love you and let me have you. let no part be absent.
let the meeting and tasting be so sweet and enduring.

i love you, and it is not enough.
there is more to the bursting
of a star. it is endless, it is kind and brutal.
like this big bang of creation.
the pain of darkness
and the gentleness
of light.

silence cannot lose itself within the calmness of the waters.
deep inside, we partake, the lust of our beings.
we drink this cup, we die and live.

When I'm Angry

When I'm angry
just get away from me
murder on the mind from time to time
Please duck behinds those clouds
For I don't know how much longer I can control myself
Ripe for blood
Hate my twisted love
You come to me
Feed me the evil intent
Always the victim
Always in this prison
Slavery of the worst kind
In the heart and mind
Controlling you and there is nothing you can do
Oh no you don't
Oh no I won't
Death is sneaky
It creeps
It explodes
Emotions running wild
The cage beast wants to be free
It clings those iron bars constantly
Its calling my name
Saying just let me at him
I'll do things you can not
Not in your wildest dreams
And this is how the monster always comes
So gentle I might seem
But when I tell you run
Go on disappear, desperately with complete and utter fear
For hes methodical
And I can't forever hold him in
If you do this in time you'll be forgiven
Not by I but the beast locked deep inside

Let The Pain Remain

(willy cruz)
Love comes, love goes
But a certain feeling never lets me be
Somehow I know
Quite a part of mes unchanged since youve been gone
Like a sturdy tree thats seen a thousand seasons
I still shed my leaves in winter
To grow them back in spring
To welcome life again
To welcome you
So goes my life
Still believing dreams of having you around
Too bad, memories
Feed the mind and not the heart where I want you to be
So I ask myself what you have left behind for me
To go on each day to live as if
I had you once again
What else is there thats real
But all the pain that I feel?
So let the pain remain forever in my heart
For every throb it brings is
One more moment spent with you
Ill let the pain bring on the rain
If thats the only way
If theres no other way to be with you again
So goes my life
Still believing dreams of having you around
Too bad, memories
Feed the mind and not the heart where I want you to be
So I ask myself what you have left behind for me
To go on each day to live as if
I had you once again
What else is there thats real
But all the pain that I feel?
So let the pain remain forever in my heart
For every throb it brings is
One more moment spent with you
Ill let the pain bring on the rain
If thats the only way
If theres no other way to be with you again
Oooh...so let the pain remain forever in my heart
For every throb it brings is
One more moment spent with you
Ill let the pain bring on the rain
If thats the only way (if thats the only way)
If theres no other way to be with you again

Fire Is Many Things

Fire is many things,
Fire is insatiable.
Fire is everlasting,
Fire is uncontainable.

Fire is helpful,
Sometimes constructive.
Fire is harmful,
Often destructive.

Fire is passion,
Keeping hearts aflame.
Fire is romance,
Keeping love untamed.

Fire is the block of life
That tells the unknown.
Fire is forever,
Written in stone

Anger, heat,
Passion, and lust.
Every single day,
Fire is within us.

Love Lost

My soul have searched the world for you
Now, loving me has made you mad
You have become suspicious
Overbearing
Love means to trust and understand
I felt the unbearable pain
Of your jealousy insane
The forever lasting LECTURES
Have broken me inside
This is not how love should feel
No, I want to run
What I thought was love, is lost
Forever you will remain my first love
Part of my soul, my being
Once I thought you were the one
Trusted you blindly
Hang on every word you said
I have clung to your every endearment
Your soothing voice will haunt me forever
But Love
You have lost me
Through all you have said and done
I live my life now
One day at a time
You have pushed me over the edge
My mind in a mess
My soul in search for what we once had
Too much has happened
When I lay awake at night
I think of when we first met
Your suspicion has build this wall between us
I stood by you
Saw you lying in your hospital bed
I felt your pain
But I can't go on this way
I do not know you anymore
Every day I died a little inside
It hurts too much
I will love you forever
But alone I will remain

How can you sleep like sleeping?

You can not ever sleep like sleeping
Only seeing in the deep and endless sky
Taking deep sigh and drinking poison
With your all arrogance and pride high
In your eyes I see the waves of the ocean
Making low and high tides with the sound
Of roaring and with a raw burning, the Pacific
Left calm less and to raise trouble ruffled
Writhing with unbearable pain heart and spleen
How can you sleep like sleeping?

When you close your eyes you see the bird
Can not fly with an arrow pierced the heart
On the ground helpless lie, when you open
Your eyes, see, pain has been washed away
By the little drops of the dew of the night.
The more unknown becomes the world,
The known face moves strange around.
From the wounds blood still dripping
How can you sleep like sleeping?
