Waking nightmares
singing lullaby's
inside of my head
A demented, Gothic opera
Broadway renditions
propagates death
Quantum variations of sadness
Spotlight from starlight upon the stage
Opening for the tango of his soliloquy
Fragmented perceptions
Heart-beats like violin strings
To the tragic vocals of...
A single life

0 Daydreams
My daydreams have a mind of their own
A life of their own
And I'm just another character
From another world
Trying to find my home
And I switch between
Nightmares and sweets
Just like night and day
And you may wonder why my heart beats
It's just its way
And even though this world adheres
To some degree of my design
You may find it weird
That it's hard to find a place to define
As mine
A life of their own
And I'm just another character
From another world
Trying to find my home
And I switch between
Nightmares and sweets
Just like night and day
And you may wonder why my heart beats
It's just its way
And even though this world adheres
To some degree of my design
You may find it weird
That it's hard to find a place to define
As mine

0 Depressed World
How it must feel to be homeless, all alone on the streets of this world
I ponder this quite often, wondering where I would go if I had no where else to go
Dropping through the cracks of our society into the dark subtext of this world’s heart
How would I ever crawl out of such a grimy, jagged crevice back into what I would call life
Protecting myself from the blackened hearts of our populous
Where would I get hope from when the truth is so horrible and lies seems so beautiful
Would I steal for food when I’m starving for strength
Would I kill for security, just to be safe and not for another night weep
I wish not to think about how dark the darkness would grow that’s already inside of me
And through my thoughts I find that this world doesn’t resemble me
Doesn’t value the same moral fiber as I do, doesn’t share the same deduction as I do
And I search for why I am here, why I can’t seem to survive in this alien world
“God why am I even alive in a world that I’m so different from that I can’t survive”

0 Death Stealer by Ariabelle Sierra
riding away with death on a dark and enchanting horse Hair gleaming in the milky moonlight your face shadows all your fears wondering why your letting death take you away from your security place What made you change your mind? what made you want death instead of life? DId you think being the princess of death would change everything for you? Or did you think you would have some exciting fun instead of a boring old safety net? you hunger for death that you dilluted yourself thinking that youll be dancing at masquerade balls that this is your chance to be a princess and get whatever you want within your little grubby grasp while hes wisking you away on a dark magnificant beast drifting away from the place you knew and replacing it with his allure of magic Showing you bedazzling lies that he says will be yours when you enter the underworld while in his mind hes laughing horriblely knowing that he has captured a butterfly in a web one that cant be free from the fate they put themselves in wondering if this nightmare will ever go away or if this is true he will torture their souls forever |

0 The Closet Stairway
In the darkness I sit alone upon my bed staring into the closet
Where shadows are chanting in ritual with words I can not hear
And the fabric of reality started to assemble a staircase of petrified wood
I walked over in wonder to ponder what was down it's seemingly infinite steps
Peering down the deep abyss with orange glowing walls of rock
And I decided to venture down into the cavern I found myself within
Strange creatures climbed up the rock faces
They hung like bats from the stalactites
Usual sounds beat through the air like music
And I was compelled to go further down into it's depth
Towards the end, I saw a young beautiful woman entering a chasm of hallways and rooms
Like a dollhouse, stretching infinitely up and down the rock face
I could see into each lit room and hallway all of the residents that lived there
And I was amazed in wonder of at my upcoming adventure through this unknown world
