Kaysen Fraker Poems

For years
tears have been behind my eyes
forced back
by a promise
...

The room spins
hands over my face
the screaming in my head
just getting louder
...

Many people look into mirrors
simply to find answers
and the only answer a mirror can answer is
'how do i look today? '
...

The vampire in the alley
the monster under your bed
the shadow in your closet
the demon in your nightmares
...

Depression
Hate
Fear
Love
...

Draining
repulsive
unwanted
feared
...

Curves like an hourglass
hair as soft as silk
eyes as deep as the pacific
lovely legs as long as the Nile
...

A sapphire among diamonds
a lily among roses
a cowgirl among city slickers
one unlike any other
...

Shadows of the abyss
moving in the darkness
of the moonless night
feeding on the defenseless
...

A loud explosion rippled through the air
filling the dark alley with the scent of gunpowder
the eyes just moments ago filled with fear
now stripped of color by the choking grip of death
...
