Numbers

Familiar number clock strikes even,

Seen it before and many times given,

Why is it I always look up right then,

As if I was meant to fate beckon,

An odd chill thrills through spine,

Random noise bump in the night time,

Paranoia from all directions,

Phantoms stalking in reflections,

Lurking behind hidden dagger looming,

Or maybe attack from below dooming,

Then finally the times passes,

A new number enters and calms synapses,

Placid of thought tranquil demeanor,

Until I see it again so soon redeemer,

Takes me back to that moment of caution,

Wrought with panic and stale air hoping,

That the ghouls won't surface,

Haunted apparition ruthless,

Finally taking my mind as their prize,

Approaching with fangs clenching my demise

Dreams

When I look up at the sky,

It's like drifting on clouds so very high,

During the day I'm filled with sun ray,

Upon night the stars twinkle so bright,

With the moon I gaze trapped in a daze,

Amidst the cold dark night it hangs like a kite,

I reach for it but I'm always too far,

When I get close it's like sinking in tar,

Then it's gone and my grasp slipped on,

One day I'll claim that moon,

Raise my flag but not too soon,

I'll take my time and relish the moment,

Gloat to all who doubted I'd own it,

But even then I would know it's brief,

I can't hold on forever fallen leaf,

The branch would weaken and I'd collapse,

Twisting in the wind and crashing fast,

On the ground I would settle with a smile,

Because I had enjoyed it even for a little while

Another

Fire comes in many forms,

Lightning crash thunder storms,

Breathe the inferno in deep,

Hold it in don't creep,

Exhale ignition spontaneous collision,

Position the target for the mission,

Lure it with lies terminate despise,

Gaping flesh torn from hollow mesh,

Gravedigger here's your corpse,

No angels here no heavenly chorus,

All you get is cold dirt nap,

Rest there bloody trench gap,

No remorse all is forgotten,

Drink some more this liver is rotten

Close your eyes to make living easy,

Break the spell that makes you weezy,

This cocoon can't hold you,

Tear a hole and burst through,

Hard to be the hero so quick to be zero,

But not for us we go against the grain,

Trying to help but some call us insane,

Running from fate useless just late,

The time comes and we know its done,

A sacrifice so hard but we're the only one,

Even though we are drowned in deep,

Died knowing a redeemed soul did reap,

Because life was always a struggle,

They didn't believe us only trouble,

Our greatest hits we truly will miss,

Memories of the best times will always shine,

We will live forever and age like fine wine

Day

As time goes on we learn more to draw upon,

Lessons of life a grain of salt becomes a mound,

The ears are honed and get acquainted with sound,

Our eyes are keen and see through the unseen,

Develop a taste unique for your place,

Detect a hint to smell even a trace,

We know what will burn and how to discern,

The pain is real a synapse sparks to feel,

And after a bad day the mind simply drifts away,

Retreats to it's home like a tree for a gnome,

A peaceful slumber to release an encumber,

The sun will fly as morning comes,

Moist drops from grass and becomes,

Food for our land to thrive as demand,

Nourish our senses to continue existence

Mistaken Identity

A light stroll to grassy knoll,

Feel the warmth of the lovely sun,

One, two, and three planes fly and run,

I try to relax but restless I become,

Must find peace I leave alone,

Oh wait I forgot my love,

I sprint back its empty above,

I look I seek I search in vain,

A park so filled all I feel is pain,

No not you and not you either,

Ah yes I've found oh wait just another,

They start to leave I grow desperate and weave,

Till at last they are all gone and I've lost my only one,

A tumbling inside I let out a pitiful roar,

Oh why oh why did I leave you before

Hallowe'en

A full moon on all hallows' eve,

A holy night meant to deceive,

Slip into disguise we gently surmise,

A view from another to truly uncover,

What it must be to hide in plain sight,

The shadow of the moonlit October night,

Or are we the phantoms that lurk in the dark,

Taking tonight to bury our mark,

The end of light we salute the darkness,

Orange and black wont be missed,

We parade in fire the jack's desire,

Burn the evil we only soar higher,

A time of friendship we show no fear,

Enjoy the treat only comes once a year
