Dark Creatures

Monsters but not monsters, 
Who was to blame? 
For transforming such pure souls, 
As if their lives were a game. 

They taunt and they mock you, 
Bitter laughter echoes in my ears, 
Torture your very heart and soul, 
Till it brings you to tears. 

They won't stop till they make you believe, 
That you are worth nothing, that theres nothing you'll ever achieve. 

Body, soul and mind, 
Wounded and bleeding, 
They grin widely in glee, 
As they notice your shallow breathing. 

Spirits feed on anger, 
Some maybe yearn for a body, 
Other creatures on blood, 
But none stick around for such folly. 

None in our imaginations, 
Could be that cruel, 
The love of seeing others suffer, 
Is not unlike their golden rule. 

Pride, envy and hatred, 
Posses these dark creatures, 
That hurt their own kind everyday, 
Then think themselves winners. 

Such dark creatures, 
Exist in this world, 
Just look in a mirror, 
And watch as the truth unfurls.

Unnecessary

My memories are like pages, 
Torn, old and crumbling, 
With stains and smudges from the past, 
Some torn out and missing. 

Part of a forgotten book, 
Tossed in a corner to fade away, 
Most of its leaves unwanted, 
Ripped out and thrown away. 

Its words disappear each time the page is turned, 
Its spine unravels just a bit more, 
Becoming more fragile each time when relived, 
Dissolving into dust, leaving my heart sore. 

Fingerprints of people long gone, 
Lay imprinted, embossed and engraved, 
Both irremovable and unforgettable, 
The bitter memories they made. 

When i die, this book shall burn with my soul, 
Yet some of my pages may survive in another, 
Perhaps edited, even replaced, 
Or maybe i just wasn't worth the tedious bother.

Last Words

Love me now,
But don't say forever,
Love me now,
While we're still together.

Life's not fair,
As you slip away,
It's far too much for me,
Yet, you just can't stay.

Believe me, love,
I'll love you even after death,
You'll never be forgotten,
Not even after my last breath.

You're so beautiful,
Why can't you see,
With or without hair,
You're everything to me.

Sunken eyes,
Still glow with love,
Reserved only for me,
Adored by angels above.

A beautiful soul,
Yet so brave, so strong,
I'll do whatever I can,
So you won't have to face this alone.

So go to sleep dear,
I'll be here till the end,
Don't be afraid,
Because I'll take your hand.

My last promise to you,
I vow i shall keep,
Till cancer ceases to exist,
I swear I shan't weep.

Don't cry for me,
Before and after,
Promise me with,
Your smiles and laughter.

So I'll love you now,
But won't say forever,
I'll love you now,
While we're still together... 

Cheat

Love him not for he has sinned,
So throw his heart into a bin,
And never love a soul that has sinned.

Sacrifice is what a man shall give,
Together forever as long as he shall live,
Until the day he can no longer give.

But if he giveth to another,
Then me maketh the biggest blunder,
For he should not have loved another.

The greatest sorrow belongs to the wife,
Who wasted away her entire life,
To a cheater did she become a wife.

A word of regret is never enough,
To sail smoothly through a patch so rough,
In truth her love was never enough.

So by and by her beauty did fade,
But his lust remained ever the same,
Tarts on the street were often paid,
After his death, all he left her was his name...
