Where the Souls Still Play
The children asked their mother,
"Mommy, where do the dead souls go?",
And she answered, yet so quiet,
"Don't ask me any questions child so tired,
drift to sleep instead,
and in your dreams of joy and laughter
let the faeries guide the way.
They will show you a place enchanted
where the dead souls do awake
where they live forever guarded
from the evils of this plane."
And so the children fell asleep,
and dreamt of joy departed,
followed ghouls and fairies dancing,
to a place of greater sense.
Once the morrow reached the land,
and they woke to hear the rain,
they told stories of a dream awake;
where the souls still dance and play.
~ Claudia Goethe
Rage
Consuming, stomach churning
Everything is burning
My legs tremble in rage
My eyes sting and my fingers are numb
Poison dart, my buttons pushed
Gun to your head, your flapping lips shut
I laugh and watch you cry my tears
The salt and sweat of my own trials
The lies poured from thin parched lips
Hungry with the thirst for affirmation
Disbelief etched into me
Slow and steady
It's supposed to hurt more this way, isn't it?
You're blind
Sulking in your own blood has distilled you
Seeing what you want to see isn't reality
Believing what you want to believe isn't truth
My patience has run out
My courtesy won't last forever
There's nothing left that I can do
But to walk away from your hypocrisy

Alone & Depressed
As I See Myself Today So Alone
I See My Future Depressed
My Life Is A Lonely & Depressed One
Sometimes I Wish It Would End
My Twists Of Truth Came Back To Me With All The Feelings Of Depression
My Life Is But A Shallow Grave
From Which The World Watches Without Feeling
Emptiness Fills My Heart
No Friends To Comfort Me In Time Of Need
Just Family That Betrays
Afraid Of What The Future Holds
Fearing That My Future Is So Grim
Envy To The Ones I Cheerish
While Thinking What Could Have Been
My Thoughts Of This Realm Perish
As The Other Side Comes In
For Each Day Drags Along
My Spirit Feels All The Pain
Everything Means Nothing Now
Not A Person Not A Thing
My Heart Has Grown Cold
My Guard Is Up
I Shall Not Open Up To This World Again
For I Can Bare No More Torture
I Wear A Cloak Of False Emotions
Only To Disguise My True Feelings
I Will Always Be Depressed & Alone
Its My Curse For All Eternity
Lonliness & Depression Are My Existence Beyond Life & Death

Life & Death
Life Is A Morbid Excuse For Death
They Both Have The Same Meaning
Its Just They're Spelled Different
Some People Can Grasp The Truth Of Those Words
While Others Go On Not Knowing
These People Become our Problems
While The Ones Who Know Are Dead
Our Reality Is Intombed With Hatred And Lies
People Kill Others For Materialistic Things
Our Society Is Being Condemned By Its Evil
We Need A Change Or We'll All Die
We Are Not Perfect
But We Can Make A Difference

Dark Angel
Descending from your realm of night
Leaving your throne of laughing stars
Quietly drifting through lonely streets
Protector of shadows. My goddess. My moon.
What brought you to me, beautiful vision?
Collecting scattered pieces of dreams
Letting me drink in the sound of your voice
Seducing me with a smile
Touch me. Want me. Embrace me tonight
Bath me in your unholy fire
Smother me in your deceptive aura
Steal my laughter with my breath
You appeared emblazoned before me
Overwhelmed, you swallowed me up inside you
Exposing obsessions of futile redemption
Only to disappear into the night
Sliding down your blackened rainbows
Dancing through our circle of blood
Burning with your fatal touch
I will follow until the end of time
Come to me again, my dark angel
Whisper to me of futures impossible
Corrupt me with your secret kiss
Written by Jonathan
Evolution
You've lived your life
Hiding in the shadows
Like a star afraid to shine.
But now it's your turn
So take your place in line.
Drawn into the light
You're retreating to the wall
Like a deer in a car's headlights.
Step into the ring
And prepare for the fights.
Stand your ground
Learn to take the pressure
Like a small fragile rock.
Don't bend or break
And you'll leave them in shock.
You say it's unfai
That you've got it so rough
Like a wind blown leaf.
So draw your sword
And drop the sheath.
It's almost over
But now you're ready for more
Like a stubborn mule.
Your passion rages high
The fire's perfect fuel.
The end draws near
You feel it in your bones
Like a sea-worn sailor.
Write your will
For it's time to call the Coffin-tailor.
You cry to the night
And fade into the darkness
Like a candle snuffed too soon.
Your spirit rises to seek
It's shelter in the moon.
A glory-risen mouse
Has found her way
Like a traveller with no map.
She lies in dirt and wood
Overcome by the Eternal Nap.
Sweet Death has raised
His score by one
Like a crooked dealer.
But we all know
Death is the one true healer.
Written by Scott James
Paranoia
Barefoot against a cold floor
Can you hear the gun-shots from afar?
Warm skin against yours
Can you feel the choking of another?
You think you're safe,
that all is fine
You think your life is yours
You isolate your life,
and live
So others wouldn't know
That you're afraid
to live your life
To slip it all away
And you can't find
no reason why
They shouldn't come today
Christian Larsen
Suicidal Tendencies
Silent crying in the distance
My own heart still bleeds
Peace all around
But sadness soon will grow.
Then again, who cared?
Did anyone really know?
Boy, they said, you're a good kid.
Whatever you do will turn out right.
That's all that counts.
Dear mother, now you're dead and gone.
Like you said, what people say and do
will hurt.
How right you were, when you
Took my father away from me.
And father, you seemed to always care.
whether I was hurt or scared
You found a way to heal this wounded heart.
So it's you I think of, mom and Dad.
Before I lay down to die.
I've defied you, Mom and Dad.
Tonight I took my life
And now I say goodbye.
For all you've done,
Both good and bad,
I beg you now
Don't be sad.
For tonight we meet,
Forever in the Void.
Written by Wesley Hawthorne
Dark Magician
I do not try to stop him,
I reach out softly to him,
Dreaming drearily of the day I will awaken, no more.
Soft, unspoken caresses,
Gentle, savored kisses,
Deliberate, slowly turning into something more.
Moonlight; raining; falling; flowing;
Touching; sensing; stirring;
Loving; burning; knowing of what was before.
Fantasy unfurls,
Colors blinding, darkness binding,
Leading to a world I had never known before.
Written by Julia Nolan
NocturnalChilde
I am a childe of the night,
living in the shadows,
living a lonely existence,
that no one understands.
For when you are a childe of the night,
you belong soley to the night,
and no one & nothing,
will ever be able to share you again.
So seductive was the night,
that I gave of myself freely,
and now all that I know,
is the cold, cruel, empty night,
that I will live with for all eternity.
I am a childe of the night,
living in the shadows,
living a lonely existence,
that no one understands.
