That moment when panic strikes,
those voices creeping in,
from the shadows of your brain.
Weaving their ribbons of doubt,
whispering to you their deadly sins.

Make the cut
Tighten the rope
Take the dive.

Just close your eyes
block 'em out
Breath in
You can do this
You're stronger then them.

Push them away
Make 'em run
with their tails between their legs.

When Panic sets in
It's easy to cave.
To listen to the voices
sweet like candy.

But it's just candy coated doom.
Hold onto your will
You can do it I believe in you
You'll come out of this
A Winner.

Pale skin So delicate
One touch can bruise it

Full lips cherry red
One kiss can make them swell

Big eyes baby blue
One move can make them tear

Precious life so fragile
In a blink of an eye it vanishes

My love so beautiful
Lush black hair Smooth as silk
Gentle voice and big heart

Her heart,
Counting out the beats of her life
Her mortal soul and numbered days

Where as I
Immortal creature of the dark
Forever laid out before me

Why is it my fate
To fall for someone
Whom I can never have  

All I have ever longed for
Placed in this mortal women

Love, comfort, trust, safety
Harbored in her heart
Reach out to me without fear

But it is I who is afraid
Afraid to love her
Afraid to lose her

Her life is a fracture
A blink of an eye
Compared to my damnation

Curse this immortality
That has been spelled upon me

Even in the face of hardships
I will stay strong and smile.

Laid off at work
Right before the holidays
Cant pay the bills
Let my brother down

Relaying on others
To pay my way
Waiting for unemployment
To honor me with a phone call

Electricity shut off
Freeze for the night
Got no money
Tears run down my face

I will give myself ten minutes
To wallow in self pity
To hate myself
And be blue

1...2...3..
4
5
6
7
8
9
10

Ok enough is enough
I will drag myself up off the floor
Dry my tears square my shoulders
Keep my head held high

Keep my smile and sparkles in my eye
I wont let this beat me down

Because

In the face of hardships
I will stay strong
And
Smile

Fragments of my mind
Falling to the ground
Piece by piece
Bits of my sanity
Scattered to the wind

I hate what We've become!
The type of couple who never speaks
Growing so distant
That place in my heart where you reside
is growing so cold

I hate what We've Become!
The type of couple living completly different lives
Do you even know me anymore?
Do I know you?

I hate what We've become!
The type of couple where love hurts
I love you Whole Heart soul and being
But its starting to hurt my heart

Next valantines day will mark three years
But for two of them we've been living in two different states
eight hours away
and so many miles between us

I'm so afraid
I dont want to lose you
But its hurting my heart to stay

****
how did we let this happen
How did we end up this way?
What have We become?

Dear You,

This is your shadow speaking
Remember Me?
The one who you use to take comfort in?
The one you said "would never leave"?

I was Always there for you
In your darkest moments
I know all your secrets
The ones your too afraid to speak of

When no one else was around
you took comfort in my presence
Knowing you always had a friend
one that knew you inside and out

I may not have spoken
But I always Listened
I loved you for who you were

Why did you turn your back on me?
Now I am something you fear.
Is it because you lost your way
Is is becuase you dont know who you are anymore?

Whatever it is I understand
Just know I am Always here
In your darkest moments
And even when you cant see me
just know I am always around the corner
Here for you no matter what.

The dried fall leaves swirling in a tornado
in the frigid october air

The Old oak tree branches whispering to one another
In a crickity Old time language

The Witches brewing brews
in their black at night cauldrens

The Wolves and monsters howling
In the light of the Harvest Moon

Oh How I cant wait
For Old Hollow Eve's Return
