I'm so simple that I'm complicated...

* - OK, just a warning first, I've written a lot of stuff, so if you don't want to read all about me then hit skip biography NOW - *

I use poetry as my outlet to vent myself out upon this dark, twisted world. I write from what I feel, what I do, what I think; I just like being able to put my emotions down on paper (or computer in this case). I love the freedom behind poetry, and how I can say or write anything and it can never be wrong (except for typo's and punctuation errors of course). I know there will be a lot of people out there who don't like my writing, and I'm okay with that, because it all comes down to personal preference. If you tell me I have no talent, then I thank you in advance, because I don't mind because I write for me. As long as I put myself into my writing it doesn't matter what others think, because it has a deeper meaning to me. But I do welcome all constructive critisism (not bitching please, that's just pointless) and any compliments are gratefully received. Other than poetry and literature in general, I love music. Anything rock, metal, goth etc. I play bass guitar, but not well! I want to advise you all to read Dante's Divine Comedy, if you love old poetry you'll love this. I know I do. I also love charmed (occult american series) and anything witchy, i've read up on a lot of wiccan and used to practice it. I love old and b grade horror movies, before special effects went over the top, and supernatural/psychological movies. If any of this interests you then I'd love you to message me coz I like meeting new people with similar interests.

Written by Xeroabyss for me!

As my soul incinerates,slowly,silently
Shadows of me burn in quiet effigy
Hell upon my heart,sin etched upon my skin
Ethereal eyes cloud,and rain again
So now am i to be crucified
2 time tonight i have already died
Do i suffer for your evils i commit
Unjust is your gift of life,and i unfit
Setence me,condemn me,mortify me
Take back what you have given squanderingly
6 times i will call out your name
6 times i will be denied the same
6 times i will plead in vain
...only once will i bear your pain

Most of what you read is true. Other bit's are truth mixed with fantasy (ie, rape vengeance, I haven't really punished guys by cutting off their dicks! Although it does sound kinda fun to try....). Other parts are complete fantasy that just somehow crop up in my twisted little mind (which I enjoy... I like fantasizing about killing and torturing... does that make me weird?). I try to get the darkness out of me by putting it in writing... it doesn't really work, but at least I'm trying. Now and then I write something semi-positive and have no idea where it came from... I really value anything anyone has to say about me or my poetry, I would love as much feedback as possible.

Now for a poem written by my friend Haunted Blood about me, read her work, it's great

For Lay

You’ve had a tough life
And I understand how bad you can feel
Cos I get that low too
We have similar symptoms
But very different causes
I must admit you’ve had it harder than me
That’s why I’m so proud of you
Cos you’re still here with us
You’ve gotten so strong
After all your trials of pain
And I know how much you wanna die
Cos I do too

I don’t know what you’ll think of this poem
But I want you to know
That you are not alone
I will understand as much as I can
I have ears to listen with
And shoulders to cry on
But if I wanna bleed
Then I’ll bleed with you
If you wanna get stoned
Then I’ll get stoned with you
And if you wanna commit suicide
Then I’ll commit suicide with you

We both hear abnormal things
And it is so scary
But we don’t have to face it alone
I’ll be with you
Every step of the way
And I want you to know that
I am not a judgemental person
I wouldn’t care if your wore
Black, pink, green or white
You’re still the same person underneath
Cos your beauty is more than skin deep

I hope we’ll be friends a long time
And even in the after life too
I’ll cry with you when you’re sad
Or praise you for an achievement
But you’re always gonna be special
Cos you have made it this far
People may call you a freak
Because of your outside mask
But I’m beginning to know the inside story
And you’re just any normal girl
With troubles similar to mine
We just take our pain out in different ways to others
But we should be applauded for finding a way of coping
Please don’t think I’m patronising
I just wanna help you
This is for you, Lay
