Hmmm

We.  Are.  NEVER EVER EVER getting back together.

Thank you for making me realize that.

Lolita Love

Throughout it all I am nothing but this
Paper-thin skin and ink splattered lips
I watch distantly through hazy eyes
From the proffered wine I take a sip

Like parchment pages printed fate
Torment and anger reside
I never love I lust I hate
As the sea turns into tide

Because I feel like Lolita
From the pages of the book
My coaxes, innocence divine
A smile was all it took
You see you see you see me
As I glance the other way
You think that you can tame me
But I’m just an actress in this play

Fierce forbidden hateful kisses
and a touch so close so far
Rough sandpaper scrapes my throat
I add it to my scars

I walk by the light of the moon
Forever yearning for the sun
The light is too bright too real
As I wait for stars to come

You say too old too young
I say it’s nothing to me
The soul the heart the mind
Is what cannot be seen to see

I dance on this merry-go-round
called life, it’s all a twisted song
A chessboard full of tricks and turns
No Queen will you find here, just a pawn

So touch me one last time
Before you turn away
The hunter’s prey I am, in kind
And as always, here to stay.

My life

“I’m done,” she’s says to me. “I can’t do this anymore.”

I look back at her, crystalline tears dripping from my makeshift heart. I wonder, what is life? What is worth living for, if your existence seems so dismal and bleak?

And I say to her,

“LIVE. For me, for them, for everyone. Because if you don’t, you will never be able to prove to yourself and everyone else that YOU MADE IT.”

Crawling in the Dark

Death

whispers in her ear.

               So seductive, so

                                tempting.

To end it all before she even had a chance

                      to

begin.

She drowns in darkness,

it fills her

       until she is

blind and

deaf and

numb.

     She tries to

scream

                as her veins fill with the

                  fire

and

                  ice

of her emotions.

A thousand hands drag her down

deeper and deeper,

souls of the damned

pulling her back into the

                          Hell

she thought she

   escaped.

Alice's Adventures

Dreams are an illusion

A pretty wish

So fleeting, so fragile

So easy to miss

It kisses me softly

And waits for my time

To gather the courage

And take what is mine



I fall down this hole

No matter the cost

The hourglass empties

As my compass is lost

My tears are a sea

Of hopelessness and fear

I try to see the future

But it doesn’t seem near

The clock ticks and chimes

As I struggle to the sky

I am lost in the tide

As I swim and I cry

I get through the door

By finding my key

It was lost in my soul

But not all as it seems

The caterpillar sits patiently

Waiting for me to come

I’m filled with regret

For the things I have done

I travel through a mystical paradise

Of sinister smiles and shimmering seas

As I drink down the arsenic

That was left in my tea

Words seeping like oil through my brain

Pretend to believe the lies that they tell

No one can ever know

How they cast their spell

I am lost between reality and imagination

What is real? What is fake/

It’s just an illustration

Of what I want, of what I regret

Of what is lost, of what was found

Breezy Brignall, 2012

An excerpt of Poetry from my novel

I wonder sometimes of life and dying

When the world becomes so hard and trying

When nothing is what it seems to be

And you say that you long for me

you give me your un-beating heart

And say we never have to part

If an angel would from the Heavens cry

Would her tears fall like rain from the sky

And wash away all anguish and pain

Until blood and teardrops mingle like rain

If angels cry

If an Angel Would from the Heavens Cry by Breezy Brignall


I pour my heart out like red paint on your canvas

It splatters over the both of us as dusk melts in my heart

Rain is such a blessing in disguise when you have thirsted for as long as I

And the drought that I have crawled myself out of is subsiding

How is it that your very touch sets me ablaze?

How is it that a certain look, a certain quirk of your lips, sends me spiraling off my axis?

I ask myself these questions constantly as you are a constant temptation

A forbidden fruit in my Garden of Eden

The poisoned apple that Snow White bit and succumbed to her fate

Of eternal slumber

Your blood, though so different yet so familiar

I still thirst for you even though I shouldn’t

I drown the sky with my rain as I see storm clouds thundering above my head

The sun is peeking out from behind the lightning, longing to be seen once more

The sun torments me, shining bright behind the dusky clouds, and I see what I am

I drown the sky with my rain, and colors bleed together, all

pastels

and neutrals

and starry studded diamonds

collected in my Undead heart for safe keeping.

I have a fear that the diamonds that glitter deeply in your moonshine eyes can hurt me

but if I don't take a chance now,

will I ever find out?


A Vampire's Lament by Breezy Brignall

Forbidden

I watch you from afar

As you gaze the other way

I try to cover up my scars

But all you want to do is play

Blossoming from my heart

Only to wilt under your stare

I try to become stronger

But I don’t think you even care

My heart is fragile

Why can’t you see

I try to harden it against you

But it is useless to me

Cast my heart into the fire

Shatter it against the stone

Your words cut into me like wire

As I walk the path alone

My feelings fester inside of me

Waiting to break free

I’m rotting from the inside

As I struggle to come clean

I wish that I could tell you

What it is I really feel

But my heart is an open wound

Waiting to be healed

My body sings to yours

As you play me like a violin

Your fingers strum along the strings

And it washes away the sin

Guilt and fear torment me

As I keep the secret hidden

You don’t believe my pleas

But I’ll only do as bidden

I feel like a marionette

And you are my master

Jerk me around by my heart

Make my blood pump faster

I am yours, this now I know

Though I try to break away

Even though you left me alone

I think about you every day

Blood runs down my body

Like a river of salvation

I call your name through darkness

But am ridden by frustration

You are my tormentor

The executioner who holds the blade

You have no idea the power you hold

That I will do whatever you have bade

You touch me oh so softly

And lightning crackles under my skin

I know I am not loved at all

But I’ll believe the lie that lies within

Whispered words seep through my body

To mingle with my blood

Words that haunt me endlessly

As I slowly come undone

I suffer my misery in silence

Underneath a façade of smiles

But every time you come near

My blood flows faster than the Nile

I wish I could forget you

As I run farther away

The colors melt together now

And all I see is gray

So maybe we will meet again

As my heart does surely wish

A secret hides inside my soul

Only to be revealed by a kiss

A picture I drew the other day::"Creativity is really the structure of magic"

She's supposed to be a fairy :D

The Shadow Cast by the Heart

Shards of memories…

Shattered

The happy free moments…

Scattered

Across

The shadow cast by the heart

My thoughts riddled with

Ghosts of the past

I wish I could see my future cast

In a sunset’s light

Or stars of the night.

…I try to remember

I will myself to dream

Of times when

What is nothing now was everything to me

I sometimes wish that time would stop

The future melts with every tock

The sun sets

Yes

But the moon also rises

I love them both

The light and the dark

And the space in between

That no one has seen

The clouds rain down sand

The hourglass won’t break

Hurry and run

Before time is done

Shards of memories…
Shattered

The happy free moment…

Scattered

Across

The shadow cast by the heart
