Time and time again
The feeling that we call love
Has intruded upon my self being
And has wrought havoc beyond believing
...

...

Death has visited thee in the night
My love, my sweet
Leaving you cold to thy hands touch
Dead as a wilted frost flower
...

I am a runner formed form the sweat of my brow
From long, blazing, summer days roasting in the heat
To the cold, unforgiving, bitter winds of winter
Who knows naught of care and compassion
...

The world shall lay in ruins
and the monuments man made to itself
shall become dust scattered amongst the lands
The seas shall roar
...

Love,
it hurts,
deal with it.
...

Walk upon the clouds of love
For they shall always float
Amongst the shining stars above
Absolute amongst the darkness of this world
...

Goodbye, My Rose
My sweet and beautiful
Flower of delight
...

Let the pillars of day fall
And bring upon the darkness of night
For in it you shall find no evil
But instead the gift of bliss
...

Goodnight Rose Petal
My love for you burns like white metal
Fiery and fierce it glows
Becoming brighter as it grows
...

Given to me on the brink of insanity
A single dying rose
Slowly decaying leaf by leaf
And thorn by thorn
...

Oh why did you,
Break up with me?

You left my heart broken
...

Time,
Time controls all
Nothing can escape time, it is inevitable,
One can control how they live their time,
...

Deep in the Shadows,
A figure moves
every step,
configuring to mine
...

...

Running through Arctic Tundra
Past shrubs blanketed with snow
Atop a vast blanket of white
which crunches under below
...

All alone
Safely secluded in the darkness of home
Safe from the outside
where light brings shadows to life
...

The Earth shudders
And moans with a thunderous roar
Bellowing out as if in pain
Caused by some unseen force beneath
...
