You open your mouth,
And the poison barbs and comments spew forth,
Like the most poisonous bile know to man,
Why?  Did you lose again your self worth?

Are you possessed?
That must be it!
Some demonic being AGAIN takes over,
And forces you to do what you do..

If I half close my eyes and squint,
I can see the red glint in your eyes,
The look of the devil,
And I can smell the embers if I try.

Emotional Nosferatu,
Raping and pillaging helpless souls,
Killing all beauty and light,
Losing more and more control.

Sleeping with Medusa,
The feel of her slippering snakes,
When anyone looks in your eye,
Their soul begins to tremor and shake.

To see such hatred,
To be touched by such darkness,
Laziness, bitterness and uselessness,
These sins you must confess.

Confess unto me and the world,
The monster you have become,
And ask God in his infinite glory,
To save your pathetic excuse for a soul, before it is too late.....

Isis this is very interesting to read.  Can only hope this is not about a personal relationship you are involved within...doesn't sound like too much fun...James

Wonderful.......very meaningful to me. I liked it a lot.


I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Emotional Nosferatu,
Raping and pillaging helpless souls,
Killing all beauty and light,
Losing more and more control.


very daark and intense read, I hope this is not reflecting your personal life. take care

It's in your eyes a fire that's wild and glorious
Unhibited, unfinished in everything I do Let the morning rise like our hearts desire" whipping boy

Well what I do is see something in life, in a friends life, on tv whatever, take the thought and dramatise it.  So somewhere in this, there is a tiny element of truth the rest is dramatised!!  Glad you enjoyed it..
