PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Looking in the water

Staring at my reflection

Seeing what makes me

What creates me, what builds this into what I am

I can see my thoughts in my head

Everything becoming so clear

But still the question lingers, “how did I get this way?”



Closing my eyes, the spirit of time takes me away

To how it used to be

It used to be real and straight

Always with a smile

Embraced by a circle of love

Admired by many, though hated by more

The light was still in my heart then

The silent night came, and turned into evil

The bloody screams and the horrifying echoes still play in my mind

Like a broken record, never stopping nor pausing

Images of blood splattered walls

Limbs separated from their host

The guts of life spewed across the floor

Falling to my knees, my heart stops

My mind breaking and falling apart

Cracking and crumbling to the ground

My insanity breaking free, but my silence is golden



The sun rising, looking at the carnage in my space

The same image as the night before, but with more clarity

The images getting darker while the sun gets brighter

My bones and muscles aching from the lack of movement

Sitting in despair for one night

So many thoughts and emotions at once

Too much for the human mind to bear at once

My bloodshot and dried eyes… lacking the strength to move

A glowing white hand, reaching out to my head

Lending me the courage and strength to move on

To avenge what I have lost

My own blood, splattered on the floor



Going further into my question

All of my training

The early dawn of knowing what I know

The sweat, the blood, and the pain

All for revenge which still resides in my head

As days go by, the clouds become darker

Slipping into silent madness

My thoughts are my own, not to share with others

Deception not by choice, but by nature

Yet, never harm those who do not deserve to die

The rules of assassination scribed in mental blood on thin paper

Stay in my head, read by my third eye

Constantly overlooking, my desire is my life

The way I have chosen

Is the way I live



I look around

At the bodies on the floor

The lives I have taken

But not caring, a sigh of relief, for no regrets

Walking along the blood-splattered walkway

Not a damn thing will I care about

Because they were in my way

They took their own lives; I was just the one who helped them along

I close my eyes to find my desire to destroy



I open my eyes, a thunderstorm before me rages with fury

The rain pouring hard, making it impossible to see

But my vision is not impaired

A silhouette of a man in armor appears

Bearing the evil smile and stench of death on his blade

Blood dripping from the bone slicing edge

The town of the dead and gone

Is now an epic battleground for the hate and vengeful

That familiar face, the familiar smell of death

Awakens my dark memory of that night

The night when my life was taken away from me

This battle, for the sake of love and family

Burn passionately in my darkened heart



Swords clashing and sparking on impact

The wind blowing with fury, the rain hindering both sights

It does not stop there

With each clash, more hatred grows inside of me

Fueling my fire, my rage burning like a furnace of inferno

The one, who took my life, stands before me

Our swords touching together, with every contact

Comes another evil grin

With every contact

Comes more fire for me to hate with

Hopping along the rooftops, but never giving up the fight

Cutting my back, the blood flowing from me

Putting me on the ground, yet fighting to get up

Raising his sword in the air, smiling down at me

I look up, gathering the strength for one final thrust

Impaling my hatred and despair into his heart, I pull out

As lightning strikes his blade, electrifying him to dust

The fight is done, is finally over with



I walk along the grass, coming across a lake

Back to where it all started

Please forgive my heart for growing dark and cold

Death is all I know

It is the only thing that drives me

To keep my sanity I must kill

Drawing my sword

Ending my hatred, with the only smile I will ever crack

Laying there, I look up to the sky as I close my eyes

Feeling the release overcome by a warm light

I am finally free to live and die peacefully
