There once was a time,
full of laughter and rhyme,
of so much dancing and singing,
until the ears were left ringing.
A time full of festive spirits & feasts,
but then there came the beasts.
They destroyed stability, harmony, and order,
and brought chaos, hate, and apocalypse.
They blew out the warm and beautiful light,
and assaulted the weak and innocent,
the angels tried to maintain peace,
and resisted with all their desperate might.
They tried to revert back to love,
believing in their deities from above,
but the outsiders; the strangers; the intruders didn't
let them, they obliterated them; it was a
massacre. Their blood graced the air with its dark
presence, it flew into the air in pained agony. It
scattered through the wind like frantic petals of
a dying rose. We loved it. It was such a pleasure.
We ***** them in any way possible; their minds,
their hearts, their souls, their beliefs, their hope,
their bodies. Everything. And we loved every
part of it. Every moment they screamed. Whether
it be physical, emotional or spiritual pain. We loved
it all. We loved it. You loved it. I loved it.

Once upon a time, holy souls roamed freely,
and we devoured them hungrily.

Because,

we're the monsters, the beasts, the demons,
the devils, the condemned, that God created.

And as I watched you kiss her, with such care, I cried.

The man I was in love with, didn't love me back.

And as I watched you wrap your arms around her waist, I cried.

He was so gentle and nice to me, that I fell in love.

And as I watched a blush splash across your face, as well as hers, I cried.

He reached out to me with the intent of friendship, nothing more.

And as I watched you pull her closer, I cried.

It wasn't his fault, it was mine, I had led myself on.

And as I watched you stop the kiss, only to gaze lovingly at her, I cried.

I cried, oh, how I cried.

I cried, not because it hurt, not because I was sad - but because I was overwhelmed with joy.

I cried, because these feelings I have for you, can now die, and I wouldn't have to suffer anymore.

I no longer had any reason to cry myself to sleep at night, when I caught you sneaking a loving peek at her.

I no longer had to feel ugly when I compared myself to her.

I no longer had to envy her beauty - both in character and in body.

I was free.

Free from the burdens that I put on myself.

So I cried.

I cried long and hard, because I was relieved, I was free, I was happy.

So please stay with her, because I want to be happy.

Let me be free from the burdens of love.

He was as sweet as anything
could ever be. A passionate,
yet gentle lover. A beauty seen
only once a lifetime. A gentleman
whose manners were so humble he
radiated perfection.A jewel so
precious, that everyone fought
for him. An angel from above
they said. An angel.

Yet as we argued for him, we
turned our backs to him, too
busy concentrating on each
other to see the wicked smirk
he wore. We turned a blind eye
to the things he did and said. We
refused to accept that he was a
demon. A devil.

We refused to see that as he
spread his white wings, his shadows
spread *****, gnarled limbs. That
as he smiled, his face contorted into
something akin to malice. That as he
glowed of innocence, his bright halo
blinded us from his hidden horns.

We refused to accept that he was
the Devil disguised as an Angel.

All because we loved him.

I'm
sorry,
I
didn't
mean
to
hurt
you.  
This pain is too great for my fragile heart...
Star G Mar 2015
Death is not as horrible
as it is said to be.

It relieves many people
burdened by this world
and its inhabitants.

Death causes people
to come closer than
any other time.

Death teaches us all
lessons that we are
too stubborn to learn.

Death frees people
from the expectations
and the frustrations.

Death gives us all
a sense of caution
we never had previously.

But at the same time,
Death makes us cry,
rage, despair, and
suffer.

It makes the people
around you and your
loved ones suffer.

cody dale
in the dark all alone
fingers weak trembling
to light a flame
so he can smoke
lips on paper
fire in his face
he inhales once more
drawing the fire closer
paper disappearing
muscles relaxing
the plant spreads
through his body
in his lungs
hardened from cigarettes
through his blood it creeps
quietly rapidly
with out a peep
the room hazy
distorted
he is relaxed
until the drug wears off
roll lick light
another cycle
repeated twice more
a sound breaks the silence
the door opens
in the gap a silohuette
short
daddy
it cries
the smoker turns away
as the door closes

the next day
with pockets empty he weeps
a child on his leg
no more
no more
a different life he needs
a person he wants
girlfriends, pets, kids
his wife
have all left

in his house alone
fingers weak trembling
to press the trigger
and an angel speaks
No
No
it cant be
what could god want with me
a loner an addict
a failure

his mother speaks
floating above him
no my son
you can be good
try
let it escape
and he tries and fails
repeating what he did before
gun in hand he cries
with his heart
his mind
his soul
his mothers face
the last thing he sees
despaired, she turns away
biting his tongue
fire in his face
he inhales the lead
and an angel cries
its long but please read it and tell me what you think
For when the words pile out
Star G Mar 2015
Mother, please hold me in your arms.
Protect me from this evil world.
Mother, please, don't let me go.

Oh, how I cry,
how is it possible for
a human like me to cry so much?

I don't know, I am after all,
human.

Mother, I'm scared.
I don't know what to do.
This place is so horrid.

My tears never stop,
and still I wonder,
as my cries mutely echo,

how, oh how, is it possible for
me to cry so much? I am human after
all, and humans are what make
this world so, so cruel.
