Gary, IN here. Still looking...

Thank you ladies! I just hope I can at least meet some cool people to talk with. If I meet someone for something more, then, that would be awesome too!

*looks up* I needed a super soaker?

Someone I can hold in my arms and enjoy a glass of eggnog with, while we watch the fire long into the night.

Stuffed crust pepperoni pizza...

*plops down on the edge of a sandbox* *unwraps a rice krispie treat*

I'm thinking about what my final grades are going to be once this semester is over. Ugh...

I've recently started dabbling in some works on Photoshop, if that counts for anything.

This was a work of art! Excellent job! :)

Hello everyone. My name is James, and I am 24 years young. I don't know what to truly say about myself, outside of the fact that I am a very easygoing guy that knows how to treat a woman. Get to know me, and I am sure that we'll become friends. :)

Um...hi all.

Deception...

Being one of the few good men in this world. Seriously. Women HATE the good guys.

Hungry

The darkness calls to me. Her evil makes me weep.
I lay awake night after night, so I won‘t see her when I sleep.

The darkness waits for me. She continues to call my name.
If I enter now, will I ever be the same?

The darkness has many forms, but her soul is forever cold.
Can I overcome her grasp with my heart that’s painted gold?

I am getting closer now. I feel her pulling me in.
She knows what she does: she knows how to make a good man sin.

Darkness knows no limits. She swallows my body whole.
I feel nothing in the process. I now have nowhere to go.

As I enter the darkness, the fear creeps over me.
No one knows why I scream for help. Maybe they don’t care to see.

Further into her I walk. I begin to hear the voices.
Paranoia follows soon after. Am I running out of choices?

Walking a bit faster now, I need to think quick.
I still can’t believe I fell for her deception and all of her demonic tricks.

Her guardians are after me. My fear is their calling.
They weren’t going to wait for it: they don’t believe in stalling.

Running through this maze of darkness, I need to find a way out.
Now isn’t the time to cry. Now isn’t the time for doubt.

Screaming, running and crying: my only modes of defense.
The darkness watches me suffer. Is she in suspense?

The guardians grab me: they hold on to me tight.
I refuse to be taken away. I won’t go down without a fight.

Breaking free from my captors, I race towards the sun.
The sun turns a crimson red. The nightmare has just begun.

Looking for an exit, I frantically search for hope.
My captors are right behind me: how will I ever cope?

Stumbling over my own two feet, I fall to my knees.
I look up and see the face of darkness herself: and she looks quite pleased.

She grabs me by my neck and she begins to squeeze tight.
In my eyes this is wrong. In her eyes…this is right.

I begin to lose consciousness. I feel myself fading away.
I refuse to die in this place. I refuse to go out this way.

As I feel myself prepare to take my final breath
I look next to the darkness. Beside her is the figure of death.

He points to me and laughs. He knows my time is near.
Darkness has me where she wants me. This thought in my mind is clear.

Suddenly I’m shaken. The darkness around me breaks.
As she drops me to the ground, I use this moment as my chance to escape.

I run full speed. I keep my eyes forward, never looking back.
My death could have happened at anytime. Why would I look back at that?

The demons are after me still. Ahead of me a cliff is seen.
I am done hoping now. I am done with thinking clean.

I leap off the cliff. Who cares if I throw it all away?
There is nothing more to do. There is nothing more to say.

Halfway down into the abyss, I see a bright dot of light.
Does this mean my demise isn’t that far out of sight?

The dot is getting bigger by the second. Soon it engulfs me.
The pain is so intense: I can barely open my eyes and see.

I open my eyes slowly to see where I have landed.
Surely it’s somewhere safe. Hopefully I’m not being stranded.

I awaken in my room. I breathe a sigh of relief.
The nightmare is over. Darkness no longer brings me grief.

I lay there in my bed, thinking of my dream.
I don’t think I can easily shake the things that I have seen.

The battle is over, but I still fear my slumber tonight.
I know darkness will be waiting for me: she never let’s me out of her sight.

To you this may seem silly. Just another ‘desperate cry for help’.
You’ll see how real it is once you experience it yourself.

Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed it!

Awake. Alone. Tossing and turning.
The words that you said to me keep my brain churning
the ill thoughts in my mind that keep the fire burning.
The sickness in me...some may find disturbing.

A little tear falls from my large glassy eyes.
I can’t even begin to tell you how much I cried
over you and those words that stung me so deep.
Is it my pain that truly enables you to sleep?

It’s over. Done. A nail ripped from the wall.
I’m thinking of a way to ensure that you fall.
Take you to a place where no one can hear you call.
Grab you by the hand, and dance at Death’s Ball.

I show up at the front, unseen and in the zone.
The thoughts in my mind are becoming well known.
My mind is now racing at a ridiculous speed
The hunt is on…your pain is what I need.

Approaching you slowly with heavy intentions,
I cover my tracks, removing all of your suspicions.
In a flash it begins, and you’re dragged across the floor
Screaming and shouting as you hold onto the door.

I pull harder now, releasing you from your grip.
The fun’s just beginning…there’s no reason to trip.
What’s this? Tears? Are you truly scared of me?
Unlike you, I have no more reasons to show sympathy.

I loved you. I trusted you. I gave you my heart.
It’s people like you that give maniacs their start.
Star light, star bright, first dream I crush tonight.
I wish I may, I wish I might, silence the screams you scream tonight.

Don’t look at me so cold. It didn’t have to be this way.
You said your piece earlier, and you demanded that I stay.
Well now it’s my turn. Do I have your full attention?
Or should I dive into the past and bring up words less mentioned?

Unlike you I have a heart, and because of you it’s breaking.
I run my finger along your neck to feel your body quivering.
I wish that you could feel this hurt; this unrelenting pain.
Thanks to your foul words, you just made me insane.

The thoughts and visions of your death dance around my mind.
But I won’t do anything to you…I don’t have that kind of time.
So let me tell you this, as I fade into the night;
Your actions will be your downfall. You better make things right.

You scream and kick the covers off, covered in a cold sweat
You grab your phone and call me, even while you wept.
I answer your call and you apologize for the things you said to me
You realize now that I am the one who was truly meant to be.

We say our goodbyes and hang up, falling back to our beds
Except this time it’s you who lays awake instead.
You see now that I’m precious. Someone you can’t live without.
My plan worked like a charm…my mind carries no doubts.

I can invade your dreams and make them nightmares true,
If you piss me off to the point where I want to frighten you.
I’ll be your best friend, or I can be your worst enemy.
Remember this night the next time you choose to disown me…

Thank you! :)
