'Till Death Do Us Part
Like a moth to a flame,
I can't stay away,
Like a deer in the headlights,
I meet my fate.
This storm is throwing us overboard,
These waves are crushing us into the shore,
Your love is my disease, and there is no cure.
I miss you like the stars miss the night sky,
I miss you like the moon misses the sun,
I miss you like the sand misses the ocean on a low tide,
I'll miss you forever until you return.
Your kiss leaves me breathless,
Your touch sends shivers down my spine,
Your voice is my weakness,
Your words echo softly in my mind.
I long for your gentle embrace,
Your arms are my shelter,
My happy place.
I need you like a heart needs a

A Devil With An Angel's Face
He was flawless, like only an angel could be,
He was beautiful, like any porcelain doll you'd ever see,
He was strong, like a beast in the wild,
He was mysterious, like the midnight sky,
He was intimidating, like the kind of heartbreak that would force you to stay,
He was patient, and vengeful, like a lion stalking its prey,
His voice rendered you helpless; his eyes stared into your soul,
His angelic appearance hid his inner demon, for only his victims to know,
His words, carefully laced with cyanide,
Would burn themselves forever into your mind,
While his smile and his presence, would leave you paralyzed.
He was not a
Madness, it consumes,
Sadness, I feel as if I'm doomed,
Drowning in a pool of my tears,
Overwhelmed by all my fears,
Darkness, it comes to play,
Sharpness, to make me pay,
For every mistake that haunts my thoughts,
For every beckoning memory in my mind, it taunts,
Will it ever end, or begin to dim?
The light of my demise, to damn me back into sin,
I have lost my way so long ago,
My demons still seem to follow me though,
They lurk and wait, as if they know,
My greatest weakness, leaving me out in the cold,
But still I reach for what I cannot see,
And still I long for who I'll never be,
Am I dream, or another lost memory?

Face Your Demons Before They Face You
Deafen your ears, for you won't be able to hear,
Close your eyes, hold your breath, for they're near,
To do away, with all your faith,
And to turn your once cherished memories,
Into nothing but a broken and isolated place.
The blood cannot be washed from your skin,
For it has already stained your soul with blackened sin,
Even if you choose to face your end,
The war of your demons will finally begin,
You'll always lose, they always win.
Turn around!
They're on every corner,
Every side,
Don't let the tears fall from your eyes,
For they get stronger with every tear you cry.
And every drop of blood you shed,
They're waiting, lurki
Will you ever be mine?
How hard am I going to have to try?
Do I need to shed more blood?
Or drown myself in the flood?
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
I'm sorry I'm still breathing!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
I'm sorry my heart's still beating!
Will you kill me again?
Please, I love the pain.
Will you torture me ever so softly?
Bathe in my blood like the rain.
I adore my sorrow,
And I adore this cage,
This cage that consumes me,
And conceals all my rage.
Call me insane,
Or call me mad,
The diary of an Opheliac,
Oh, how pitiful, oh, how sad!
I'm beautiful with my sadness,
And I am content with my madness,
I've laid away withi
Scars
You'll never see
Tears
Left from me
Here's to nothing
Not like you care
Here's to everytime
You weren't there
Leave me alone
You don't understand
Leave me alone
Not this again
Don't start a fight
Give me a chance
To make it right
Get through this night
Left alone
Screaming
When I speak
Desperate
Listen to me
Here's to times
Without you there
Here's to nothing
You didn't care
Leave me alone
You don't understand
Leave me alone
Not this again
Don't start a fight
Give me a chance
To make it right
Get through this night
Left alone

Be so cold
Left alone
No one to hold
Do you hear me
When
Do you ever wonder?
What lies behind the stars?
Do you ever notice?
They make us who we are
Death is just a dream
Not as morbid as it seems
Could you wipe the slate clean?
For me
All I do is wonder
I will never know
How the angels would treat me
Would Heaven be so cold?
Would the demons take my soul?
I'll soon know
Do you ever wonder?
What hides within the night?
Do you ever think?
I could make this right
Life is just a curse
Not set in reverse
Could you forget everything?
Including me
All I do is wonder
I will never know
How the angels would treat me
Would Heaven be so cold?
Would the demons take my soul?
I'll soon
Why should I care
When you don't even notice
How you cut my heart
And leave me broken
Into pieces of glass
Shattered in two
Where does this end?
It's all up to you
You left me pretty and dead
On the cold bathroom floor
And when I find you this time
You won't be breathing anymore
And when I slit your throat
And slice your skin in two
The one begging for mercy
Will only be you
By the time they find me
I'll be pretty and pale
And by the time they find you
You'll be rotting in hell
Shattered in two
Where does this end?
It's all up to you
Let the fun began
You left me pretty and dead
On the cold bathroom floor
And when I
Once broken, in pieces you laid,
Abandoned, left empty,
Scars, they were made.
You had seen the unspeakable,
Things you could never forget,
Almost impossible, but you escaped it.
The poison that once coursed through your veins,
Existed your being to back from which it came,
Your skin so pale,
Against all odds, your conscious yells,
Against all odds, your conscious prevails.
The demon that once had you in it's grip,
From it's hold you've begun to slip,
To break away, the face of death you've met,
Farther away, until there's nothing left of it.
Your eyes were vacant, your body was cold,

It was a half past seven when Helene heard someone knocking at the door. She looked at the clock in the wall and frowned:
-Varg worry up! - she demanded, making her way to the door. She opened it and Ammelia smilled, shyly - Oh, hello dear!
-Good mornin'. - the girl said - Is... is Varg there?
-Oh yes, he's drying his hair... I hope... come in, it's cold! - Ammelia entered the house and Helene closed the door behind her - He always takes too long in the shower, what am I going to do with him?
Ammelia just smilled and watched Helene going upstairs. She felt a little nervous and wo
At half past two Varg got dressed and made his way downstairs. His mother was watching a movie with a friend and talking about cosmethics:
-Honey, where are you going? - she asked, watching him put on his tennis. Varg stood up and walked towards her:
-I'm going to meet Ammelia. See you. - he said, kissing her cheek and completely ignoring his mother's friend. Then he left and Helene looked at her friend, smilling:
-They grow up so fast... - she sighed. The other woman, Nina, rolled her eyes:
-A haircut wouldn't kill him, don't you think? - she asked. Helene raised an eyebrow:
-He looks good. - she said - And I love my son any
-Wow... - it was the only she was able to say, after Varg finished telling about his amazing weeks.
They were laid in the grass, among some yellow flowers. A couple of birds sang somewhere in the branches above them. She played with his hair, the sunlight making his hair look like dirty gold. He shrugged, trying to look like that afterall he hadn't given a damn about what had happened. It was useless, he knew, but he never liked to seem week:
-And my fridge is getting empty, now. - Varg said. The girl raised an eyebrow and he rolled his eyes - Now you should invite me to eat at your place, no? You suck!
-Fucker. - she stuck her ton

To Long for What I Can Never Have
Long fingers, strong hands
That's what I remember of you most
You're skin warm like the beach's sand
Skin soft, yet rough and pale as a ghost.
Your touch lingers on my skin
Your breath hot and tempting in my ear
Taunting me endlessly from within
The feel of your body on my body floods my mind whenever I want you near.
I miss our talks, too
I miss the way you challenged me
The way your eyes held the secrets of the world, ones that only you knew
The way your words haunted my thoughst endlessly.
Yet, I am condemned to miss you
For I can never have you as my own
I bare this punishment for loving you, 'tis my payment, due
And I shal

I'm missing you so much, I'll say you die tonight
Just so I can get to you before the sun will rise
I know the signs are on and I feel this too
None of that ever seems to matter when I'm holding you
And I'm wasting away, away from you
And I'm wasting away, away from you
What have I gotten into this time around
I know that I had sworn I'd never trust anyone again but I didn't have to
You had me at hello.
I've never seen a smile that can light the room like yours (like yours)
It's simply radiant, I feel more with everyday that goes by
I watch the clock to make my timing just right
Would it be okay,
Would it be okay if I took your
Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick
I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
Images
And when you left you kissed my lips
You told me you'd never ever forget these images, no
I never wan
Without the slightest hesitation, he went to the door on the right and opened it. As he turned the knob, the door started to slow creak open. The young man entrusted his faith within the princess. He trusted her with his life, his future, his heart and soul—for she was his everything, his very being. He knew no matter her decision; his feelings for her would still remain. Even if on the other side of the right door was a blood-thirsty tiger awaiting to tear him from limp to limp, to sink its sharp fangs within its pry, to piece his skin as if he were a small animal being devoured by its predator. He knew that until his final breath, af
