Autopsy Of A Dream


Let your muse express its kind 
In the autopsy of your mind 

Autopsied dream 
Fire, Air, Water, Earth 
Running wild in the forest 
An animal 
Silhouette of your future 
Flashes before your eyes 
Limbs like trees run on for miles 
The blood is the time 
The veins carry the clock 
To your next adventure 
Nightmare skeletons 
Forged in your mind 
Every cell a new memory 
That you cannot find 
Use your eyes like 
The Surgeon 
And perform the 
Operation 
To dissect each dream 
As if it were an abscess 
You need to remove 
Examine it like a Scholar 
Read the textbook 
Back to front 
Pick the journey 
To the dreams 
And piece them back together 
Like your organs 
Function to build life and 
Carry you through 
As can dreams 
Destroy you

Old Oak Tree


Alone it stands 
In a suspect moor 
Tall and grand 
Overlooking the ground
Green luscious leaves 
Litter its boughs 
No fruits to be seen 
Its wisdom is rich 
A vast wrinkled trunk 
The anchor of life
Time passes things by 
Except the Old Oak Tree 
Lost in memory 
Of an old reverie

Egyptian Queen


Fairies of dark enchantment 
Circle the pond of sapphire 
Dark Egyptian Goddess 
Floats in a charred boat 
Two pixies beside her 
Trees of fantasy 
Tall, dark and illumined 
By the midnight moon 
Azure paradise 
Crystal clear water 
Drink from the heavenly 
Curse 
The fountain of youth 
Until there is truth 
Silver decadence 
Forms a halo of white 
Glistening fairies 
Alone in their dance 
Fireflies melting 
In the poisoned light 
For the Egyptian Queen kills all in her sight 

Creative Rose


Blood red rose shines 
In a nocturnal night sky
Leaks a dew
From its petals 
Engulfs the night
A silver fox charges 
Through moonlight
She locks a box
With a key
Thinking about what it could be 
Hidden inside the mind
Unlock the paper
Place the ink
Divulge your wildest dreams 
Fantasy of
Creativity
Is it enough 
To push the word further deeper 
Until there is no conclusion 
Only imagination

I Dream...


I dream forever 
Of days to come 
Bonds to be severed 
And tunes I will hum 

I dream always 
Of days long past 
What history says 
And moments that didn't last 

I dream on 
Of days that are now 
Where I belong 
And what I now vow 

I dream in a world 
That no one else can see 
In a reality twirled 
Into fantasy 

I dream of Unicorn, Phoenix and Dragon 
Of lands never seen 
Of bards with flagons 
And adventures waiting for me 





Fog

















I need to bleed onto this paper 
Pour the blood to fill it 
With my insides 
Splatter my pain 
For you all to see 
Finally shedding my security 
Bleed it dry 
From the fog in my head 
The buzzing fog 
Clear my eyes 
Clear my nose 
From this awful weight 
Weighing me down 
Like chains on the innocent 
The hurt like 
Razorblades slicing through 
My insides 
My organs ache 
Hollow scars upon my skin 
These words are my only 
Friend 
Loneliness is killing me 
I need to breathe 
I need to see 
The beauty in creation 
But I see nothing but 
Death and pain 
Life is made for fools 
Ones that bite the hand 
That feeds them 
I see into their facade 
The ones that are left behind
Rotting corpses 
Of skin and flesh 
Unbeatable hearts 
Full of sorrow 
In their solitude 
The constant fog 
Bleeds into their brain 
The fear that holds them tightly 
As the will fades 
Keep them in the dark 
For the dark holds the fog 
That can never die

Incantation

Torture tongue 
Clambering claw 
Rip in shreds 
Deeper and deeper 

Nightmare ghosts 
Arch of skeletons 
The bell clock tower rings 
A single crow sings 

Sunlight beams 
Against a forest of dreams 
Crooked earth 
Against a straw filled sky 
Places a hand across the hearth 

Solace in silence 
The hand that plays 
Ever watchful as a murderer slays 
Victim 
Powerless in defence 
Creeping amongst the shadows 
As a shapeless menace 


Eye Of The Sun

The winds of time 
Can break 
Force itself through the trees 
For the destruction of 
Mankind is imminent
Masking enchantment 
The Sun hides its 
Deadly sins 
As we go on oblivious 
To its all seeing eye 
One false move and 
Earth could die 
The Sun watches our every step 
It weathers our wounds 
With a painful blow 
Leaving us homeless 
With nowhere to go

Beautiful Demise

Jagged in the creases 
Blood is running deeper 
It trickles down the chambers 
Of a beating heart 
On the white walls 
The canvas has freed it 
What was once the source of living 
Is now a work of art

Ink Portal

Old ancient book, older than the dust 
Encasing the folds of mysteries 
Sitting alone, forgotten 
On an old shelf, patient 

Its pages are filled with ink 
It could be a book about enchantment 
Or a portal to another world 
More rich than any could have dreamed 

Its withered pages fluttering under my breath 
The ink fading now, as cracked as the leather cover 
Stretched to its limit, its binding broken 
Its dusty smell, the smell of ancient time 

Old pages, old memories, old ink 
The writer long since forgotten 
The book remembers, remembers through the ages 

The book's casing can wither and die 
But the words are there 

They still live and breathe like always 
Like memoirs on graves of the dead 
It remains, though much else is lost 

Here through the ink portal 
The words are never forgotten

Icicles

Spires of ice 
Hang from my window 
Rainbows encased in frozen water 
Hanging, hanging 
Don't want to be under when it falls 
It may never fall 
Simply drip into oblivion 
When Spring time comes

Sunrise

Red giant 
Towering apocalypse
Burning white 
Blistering scarred earth 
A beaten world 
Defeated by the enemy 
Of life 
Alien land 
Forgotten, alone, at peace 
No wars can break 
Strength in the darkness 
Of the unborn star 
Growing Sun 
For the last stand 
Takes the hand 
Pushes out 
From the womb of space 
The human race 
Has been destroyed 
By the giant ray 
Crushing brutality 
As earth is eaten up 
A tasty snack for 
The monster 
Once gave earth life 
Can take it 
Back in a flash 
Moving on 
Hears the Planets calling 
Earth can not reply 
Now is your time to die

Nightmare


Last night I dreamed I killed you 
I couldn't let you live 
I had all night to will you 
I'm obsessive 
I know all about your ways 
Subtle whispers told me 
How you run your nights and days 
I thought you had died before 
But you ran fast bloody faced 
When I caught you 
Lost in death's embrace 
Awaken in gory crimson screaming 
I realized that I was never dreaming 


Gentle Ghosts


Dreams, 
Fragile beauty of the mind 
Sky-colours that slip between the sheets 
And paint the night with memories 

Gentle ghosts, they are 
That live within 
And wait for night to emerge 
From the frosts of day

Echo


In the labyrinth of Stalactite caves, 
Hear the Echo of crashing waves, 
Wandering in a cavern of black and grey, 
For the Echo fades everyday, 

Rise to the roof exposed by a shaft of light, 
As I look into the rays blasting down. 
My call comes to me on waves of time, 
Carried by the Echo over walls of lime, 

An oasis beach, with trees of palm, 
With dolphins swimming around so calm.
From an outlet above water cascades down like snow. 
And splashing sounds fill the air on the Echo. 


Needles Of Earth


Knit us back together 
Hold the needles in place 
Build our cities 
Out of wool 
And our trees of silk 
Use time as the spindle 
Create our cover 
From the darkness 
Criss Cross 
Pearl and knit 
Only a little bit 
Fix everything in one stitch 
Let the needles do the talking 
Before it's too late 
Before we become 
The land that they forgot 


Exit

A dark and twisted dream  With no seeming end  Search for exits  From this hell within  Nothing fills this empty void  Nothi...
