			<title>Winter Dreams</title>
			<description>Glassy showers pierce the skywhile my lips breath a frosty sigh.The window steams with frigid heatas fire lies where our&amp;nbsp;toes meet.&amp;nbsp;A winter wind demands a callwith summer gone and lies of fall.The rivers freeze and great&amp;nbsp;lakes flowwhere snowy glaciers&amp;nbsp;never&amp;nbsp;go.&amp;nbsp;Septemb..</description>

			<title>Mockingbird</title>
			<description>Mockingbird sing ever lightly'bout the jests you hear right now.Mocking bird don't lose your temper;sharp edged words you disavow.Mockingbird, you whisper softly;hum from memory your siren song.Mockingbird, you stand beside me;stand with me amidst my wrong.Mockingbird, your feathers ruffle;molt as l..</description>

			<title>As I Lay Dying</title>
			<description>Twilight comes storming,the night at its feet.Silently roamingI walk down the street.The skies lose their color,my eyes do the same.My heart skips anotherbeat at your name.The moon bears my sorrow,the stars freckle grief.I long for tomorrow.I long for relief.The world and its splendor;the world and ..</description>

			<title>Undead Girlfriend</title>
			<description>It was Saturday night.I was head over heels.The moment felt right.I just love how it feels.The gloss on her lips,the shine of her hair,the sway of her hips,I just wasn&amp;rsquo;t aware.I lead her inside.She turned out the light.I pushed her aside.She wanted t..</description>

			<title>Suicide</title>
			<description>Body lying on the floor,crumpled up beneath the door.Noose tight, gun cocked,I&amp;rsquo;ll make sure the doors locked.&amp;nbsp;Sixty seconds&amp;nbsp;- fatal drop. Watch the level ladders prop.Fifty seconds&amp;nbsp;- move fast.From the barrel bullets blast.&amp;nbsp;Pours the blood from your face..</description>

			<title>Your Eyes</title>
			<description>The evening draws&amp;nbsp;- summers gone,soothing sunlight has withdrawn.The stars are bare&amp;nbsp;- atmosphereblankets Earth as moon appears.Morning rare, midnight air,something flashes over there.Here we are, here we&amp;rsquo;ll be,bright your eyes shine insecure.&amp;nbsp;Watch as darkness ..</description>

			<title>Disconnected</title>
			<description>Here we are,it's come that hour.That midnight mention- my sin, your shower.I dial your number,the tone runs dead.I won't leave a message.I've gone to bed.My sheets grow colder,my heart beats stop,my tongue twists sourwith the taste of teardrop.I'm waiting for your update,..</description>

			<title>Thoughtless</title>
			<description>A product of thoughtlessness. A moment where all good idea's seem so far away. Where creativity seemed to abandon me.</description>

			<title>Coffee Shop</title>
			<description>The sliding doors,the tile floors,the bawdy, aweful furniture.Did you knowI can't let goof coffee and cigarettes?Here, there, everywhere,I can't comparethe it, them, they.The countless hoursand mindless showersof rain along the rooftops.The city sirens,street lights bri..</description>

			<title>After Midnight</title>
			<description>The leaves rustle, the frogs croak,the rain showers, the ground soak,the birds sleep, nocturnal flyand dark wake as light die.&amp;nbsp;Night sets in - now it&amp;rsquo;s after noon.By default alone I stare at the moon.The air grows cold, my blood goes numb,my heart keeps racing a heavy drum..</description>

			<title>Pushing Up Daisies</title>
			<description>The snow falls, the snow breaks,the heat melts what cold makes;the winter comes, then spring arrives;what frosty beauty it deprives.What grass attempts to solely grow,is burdened down by summers glow.That summer which I know wont be;that summer which I'll never see.I look about, ..</description>

			<title>Neverland</title>
			<description>Look at the sky as it draws our attention;it's sophomoric beauty holds time in suspension.It grabs all of darkness and molds a fresh worldthat crushes weak spirits with malice unfurled.All of evil paints a memory I'd rather forget,and when I try only history resurfaces that threat...</description>

			<title>Porcelain Fists</title>
			<description>I move, I think, I wait, I ponder;soon I let my vision wander.I begin to wonder whether, ever,love will find me. Would it? Never.Within that crack between my heart,I crawl away, I set apart.There I find a corner dark enough to sleepand dream of then &amp;#2013266048;&quot; my memories weep...</description>

			<title>Pass Away</title>
			<description>Are you out there, past the moon?Could I find you sometime soon?I would wander&amp;nbsp;- ride to you,on the wave&amp;nbsp;-&amp;nbsp;this soft sung tune.&amp;nbsp;Where was I when you came?Would I have just remained the same?&amp;nbsp;Would you wait?Would you call?Would you ponderHow I&amp;rsquo;..</description>

			<title>Puppet</title>
			<description>Open my eyes and what do I find?An anonymous voice creeping up from behind;a whistle, a thistle, a snap of the wrist -I&amp;rsquo;m gasping for breath, I&amp;rsquo;m losing my mind.&amp;nbsp;My body thrown coarsely; I move side to side.The pain in my actions I&amp;rsquo;m trying to hide.My physical mo..</description>

			<title>Cadaver</title>
			<description>Black lace - the spool she threadsthrough the careful eye of the needles head.She works her hands; she fingers, she mends.How stately she weaves the lips of the dead.&amp;nbsp;Her body is pale as the flesh she stitch;her body is cold as this wretched witch.A twist, and a curl; her ..</description>

			<title>Illume</title>
			<description>Something tells me knowledge rides the air.Something tells me wisdom isn&amp;rsquo;t fair.Something tells me, calls me, wants meto bottle the stars, sun, moon; most everything rare.&amp;nbsp;Something persuades me to hunger the truth;a curiosity parallel to that of my youth.Something, noth..</description>
