The Dark Poet-Edward Val
At wits end 09/11/2010
 
Closed off from the world, encased in stone
Colder then ice, all alone
I live in blackness ever so dark 
Where the eye’s of the dead hold no spark
Tormented daily by those of ill will
Howling, screaming bringing bones to a chill
having no answers I’m trapped inside
Longing for escape and a place to hide
Tired of the disappointments and every lie
At the point where I’d rather die…

 
Light 06/14/2010
 
I’ve been backed into a corner
Ran out of Amen’s
To take a step backwards would mean my end
So I draw on my powers ready for a fight sword in
my left, shield in my right
“darkness.” I yelled. “feel my might.”
And within an instant came the light.

 
Deceit: 03/21/2010
 
The clouds hang low and stormy
As my heavy heart weeps
Betrayed by a kiss so insufficient
And a love twice as cheap
Tricked by the dark goddesses lies
Her treacherous deceit
And now with open arms it’s death I wish to greet
Fore how the pain courses through my veins
Suffering does not suffice
As I reach for her one true gift
The razor edged knife
An raise it to slice those same veins
That hold such pain
Like acid to the skin
Cry out in agony but there’s no one to hear my whims
So now I travel on through the valley near hatreds breast
Beyond the Burning plains where the most vile of souls rest
And on toward the circle of brimstone and fire
Toward the one place in all hell reserved for the suicide buyer.

 

 
 
Even though I walk alone in the dark,
The lord is still my Sheppard and I hold him within my heart.
Even though my wings have been clipped and I’ve fallen,
I’ll carry his word until flesh meets coffin.
Even though darkness has it’s grasp.
The light will endure all, and always last.
Even though my faith is sometimes abstained,
The lord is always there to give me guidance
And cure me of pain.
Even though I do not go to church,
Nor do I always pray.
The lord still speaks to me and I listen everyday.
Even though I sin and I’m far from pure
The lord still loves me
And who could ask for more.
